Finished Lady May Cry. Yep. Way too much of her. I enjoyed episode 6 for what it was despite her being...30-40% of it. But I also didn't like Action was generally good but yeah, it might as well have been Lady May Cry. I'd give it a 6.5/10 --- The horrors persist but so do I. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm only like 3 episodes in. It's fine but something seems missing. I like the rabbit guy. He's sufficiently creepy. Dante is on point. He's doing cool shit for no reason and being his goofy self. The music is very fitting no matter which way you interpret that. I'm not a huge fan of JYB here though. I feel He's a terrible pick for Dante. Hes still coming off somewhat serious even when Dante is fucking around. Everything else is also having that vibe of being overly dreary and serious. Normally, that's fine but they're such a huge part of the show that it's too much. It just becomes evil Trix rabbit vs very serious straight laced demon hunters. Then Dante who is written correctly but his VA is often too serious. It's a lot of boring mixed in with "Jackpot" moments --- I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness. ... Copied to Clipboard!

And most of his jokes aren't really jokes, but demeaning critique against demons to rile them up and get under their skin. A lot of what the Netflix Dante seems to miss, since he feels like a Marvel written character here personally. --- https://imgur.com/a/LYNS7ow https://imgur.com/a/knf9AoW https://imgur.com/a/TIIdBJT https://imgur.com/a/RYkMp5I https://imgur.com/a/48AD2yM ...

I remember people being upset when Dante cursed once in the first anime. Dante was created with a very specific idea of being cool. No cursing or smoking for example. So to have another westerner come in and decide that these things are fine is very annoying. --- The Official Sons of Sparda of all GameFAQS boards. June 10, 2018. The day Dante returned to us.

A character like Dante is honestly pretty difficult to write despite seeming simple. Dantes coolness is completely ironic. The dude is a dork. Like, a major dork. However, what makes him lovable is the confidence he has in how he carries himself. He is 100% secure in who he is and doesnt care what people think about his goofy actions. That is what makes him ironically cool. From what Ive seen of the show, I dont get that at all. --- Hope rides alone ... Copied to Clipboard!

Is this another case of someone taking an IP and using it as a trojan horse for their own story?

And Ill be clear: there is nothing wrong with political commentary making its way into a narrative. Its natural for writers to sprinkle their own views and ideas into their work. Thats how art works. That being said, DMC is certainly an interesting choice to tell a commentary on the war on terror and not a very good choice at that. --- Hope rides alone ... Copied to Clipboard!

its a 7/10 for me. wish Dante was more at the forefront instead of feeling like a secondary character. could have sworn he was the actual protagonist of the series instead of that other chick... also, there are spots where the animation feels iffy. and Im not a fan of that CGI. dont see a reason why certain demons were 2D and others had CGI in them unless the budget for this was low or something, i dunno. lol ...
