Netflix is set to raise hell in April 2025 with the release of their highly anticipated anime adaptation of Devil May Cry. The announcement was made alongside a thrilling new trailer, showcasing the iconic demon hunter Dante in action. The series is being produced by Korean animation company Studio Mir in collaboration with creator Adi Shankar.
The trailer offers plenty of eye candy for fans, featuring Dante’s signature acrobatics, intense gunplay (though notably without his famous pistols, Ebony and Ivory), and a host of demons. While the animation style differs from the 2007 anime series, it brings a fresh and dynamic visual approach to the beloved franchise.
Details about the series’ plot remain under wraps. However, the appearance of the White Rabbit from the Devil May Cry 3 manga “Code 1: Dante” hints that the anime might be set before the events of the first game. This has led to speculation among fans about potential storylines and character developments.
The announcement of the Devil May Cry adaptation comes hot on the heels of Netflix revealing that the second season of Castlevania: Nocturne will also debut in 2025. This marks an exciting time for fans of video game adaptations and anime on the streaming platform.
