The Devil May Cry animated series has officially launched on Netflix, featuring a younger version of the legendary demon hunter Dante. With showrunner Adi Shankar leading the project, this adaptation highlights the franchise's enduring popularity.
As we approach the weekend with fewer major releases, Netflix's latest video game adaptation arrives right on time. Devil May Cry brings its signature stylish action to streaming platforms with this new animated interpretation.
The series boasts an impressive creative team featuring Studio Mir's animation expertise and Adi Shankar's showrunning experience. Set in an alternate timeline preceding the games, it explores Dante's early years before he became the iconic hunter fans recognize.
The franchise continues its resurgence following 2019's acclaimed Devil May Cry 5 and Tencent's mobile release Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat. The animated series' debut naturally raises questions about future plans for this longstanding action franchise.

While opinions on Adi Shankar's approach vary, his involvement guarantees a distinctive vision - evidenced by his work bringing Dredd to theaters. Early reactions suggest his Western-influenced take on Devil May Cry may prove divisive among longtime fans, though his productions consistently demonstrate ambitious execution.
