In eight episodes, Devil May Cry reinvents the Capcom video game series, offering an adaptation that seamlessly integrates essential elements of its established canon while introducing novel and unique aspects into the show’s DNA that are so captivating they demand a second season .

Despite initial fears that the show would reduce Dante to an anime Deadpool with nothing but emo one -liners, he is a well-rounded hero.

The series is a surprisingly political show that taps into all the fascist dog-whistling in today ’s world.

The show delves into the complexities of demons and Americans attempting to coexist.

The soundtrack feels like it was engineered by someone who frequently watched YouTube AMVs mashing up gameplay with emo music.

If the demons can look cool and distinctive, why can’t the humans also bring some style to the table? All eight episodes of Devil May Cry are streaming on Netflix .

If you’re giving bland Ubisoft extraction shooter a bland extraction shooter, it sucks.
