Critics Consensus

Honoring its source material's flair for the bombastic, Devil May Cry slices and dices its way into the animation medium and makes a bloody memorable first impression.

Kambole Campbell

AV Club

Even as it leaves any subtlety as a distant speck in its rear view mirror, Shankar’s spin on Devil May Cry is mostly a fun love letter to the qualities that made it popular as well as the sounds of the time when it emerged.

A gleefully violent, high-octane action adaptation with a punk edge.

As a fan of the Devil May Cry games, I'm thrilled with the new series. The action is intense, the music is metal, and it stays true to the source material. The characters are well-written, the humor is dark, and the story is beyond exciting. A Must Watch!

Rated: 10/10

Having zero knowledge of Devil May Cry, I had a great time with Netflix’s new anime of the video game franchise without feeling like I was missing out on key information.

Devil May Cry has a lot of potential to be something great, as there are real strokes of genius in the action, humor, and themes present in the narrative that generally capture a lot of what makes the DMC game franchise interesting.

Instead of "DMC," they should've named this anime "Lady May Cry." Lady is far too overpowered, and they've completely ignored that Trish is the real companion, not that idiot.

🔥 Devil May Cry (Netflix) – The Anime We’ve Been Waiting For 🔥 I’ve watched anime for years, and Devil May Cry on Netflix has officially raised the bar. This isn’t just another adaptation—it’s a full-blown masterpiece that blends American grit with anime flair in the most electrifying way possible. 🎮 Visuals That Hit Hard The graphics? Absolutely sick. Every frame is dripping with style—dark, cinematic, and razor-sharp. The fight scenes are pure adrenaline, choreographed like a symphony of chaos. It’s like watching a graphic novel come to life with a vengeance. 🎯 Storyline That Delivers This isn’t just eye candy. The plot is tight, compelling, and full of depth. Dante’s journey is raw, layered, and unapologetically cool. It respects the legacy of the game while carving out its own bold narrative. You’re not just watching—you’re invested. 🎙️ Accents & Voice Work Finally, an anime that gets American accents right. The voice acting feels authentic, grounded, and emotionally resonant. It’s refreshing to hear characters speak in a way that feels familiar without losing the edge. 🎵 Soundtrack That Slaps The music? Phenomenal. It’s gritty, haunting, and totally relatable if you grew up on rock, metal, or hip-hop. Every track amplifies the mood and makes you want to
