Dante Quips But Doesn’t Slay In Devil May Cry Anime Preview Clip

by

From the initial Devil May Cry game in 2001, Dante’s preference has consistently been for style over substance. He effortlessly dispatches most demon adversaries and often adds a humorous comment as he sends them back to the underworld. Recently reexamining Netflix’s Devil May Cry anime adaptation, it appears that Dante maintains his supernatural combat abilities. However, when it comes to his wit, he might benefit from some improvisation lessons to enhance his clever comebacks.

Funny enough, my lousy sense of humor is what keeps that lady from being petrified by me. Instead, she appears to be more irritated than frightened at the end of that video clip, but I guess I’m still oblivious to the fact that I might not be as cool as I think I am.

The upcoming scene could establish the mood for the show, as its unconventional title sequence, featuring Limp Bizkit’s “Rollin’,” has already piqued interest. It’s quite apt actually, given that both Limp Bizkit and the character Dante were quite trendy in 2001.

Adi Shankar, who has previously worked on Netflix’s Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, is now producing the animated series Devil May Cry. Joining him as executive producers are Seung Wook Lee and Hideaki Itsuno. The animation for this show is being handled by Studio Mir, known for creating X-Men ’97, Harley Quinn, and My Adventures with Superman.

Starting from April 3rd, the first season of Devil May Cry will premiere on Netflix. As of now, Capcom hasn’t shared any information about producing another installment following 2019’s Devil May Cry 5. However, should anything alter this situation, a successful Netflix show could be the catalyst for change.
