About

"Cool-guy demon hunter noir, style over substance"

Based on the stylish demon-hunting video game, this anime follows Dante, a wisecracking half-demon mercenary who runs a detective agency called Devil May Cry, taking on supernatural cases while a deeper conspiracy about his own origins simmers underneath. Episodes lean episodic, mixing noir atmosphere with flashy sword-and-gun demon fights. The pace is brisk and the mood cool and moody rather than dark, carried mostly by Dante's swagger and the show's slick visual style rather than deep plotting or emotional weight.

Watch it for

Dante's effortless swagger and the show's slick, noir-tinged demon-hunting set pieces.

Maybe skip if

you want the tighter plotting and stakes of the original games rather than episodic filler.

Dante, a demon hunter, runs an agency called “Devil May Cry”. He is hired to protect Patty Lowell, a little orphan girl who has just received her late father's entire estate. At the same time as Patty wants to find her mother, her relatives and the demons want to kill her in order to keep the inheritance that was meant for her. To top it off, the demons want the mysterious necklace that the helpless little girl is wearing. What could be so important about this jewel?
