April 4, 2025Apr 4 So, some of you may know about the Devil May Cry Netflix series... It has dropped on Netflix as of today... My review will be below in spoilers.
April 4, 2025Apr 4 Author So, I watched it. I did not like it very much. Changed the lore and good parts of the plot of the games far too much. I give it about a 4/10. LIL BIT OF SPOILERS IN THE QUOTE . . . Quote I liked some of the cameo's, but I hate the story and how they changed the characters... And now they have to come up with a different way to bring Trish in somehow, because she's too good to not use. ( if I am honest, I can already see her being the one who frees Dante if they do a season 2) But I really hate how they have completely ruined the main Devil May Cry story, only for them to use some of the Devil May Cry 2 story plot at the very end (the early Lucia cameo was great... but if they are taking from the DMC2 story, why ruin her so early?). . . . Unlike the Castlevania series, whose backstory was pretty easy to manipulate because it was from a NES game, Devil May Cry was much more recent... With a recently made great game in DMC5, and a large fan favorite game in DMC3 being completely negated. I'm going with a 4/10. I see part of what they were trying to do, but changing things so much has only hurt the concepts already in place that fans loved and made the series what it actually is. Also, at some times the animation wasn't great. I won't call it an insult to the series, but it certainly is its own thing like DMC2.
