#DEVIL MAY CRY 1 BOX ART SERIES#
Unfortunately that's really the only explanation we get regarding the plot of the series and if you're not too familiar with the franchise some things will be lost on you. There are demons that prey on humans, demons who love humans, and demons who pretend to be humans. The show opens up and introduces us to a crazy mixed up world where demons and humans seem to coexist for better or worse. There's just a sense that it doesn't quite live up to its fullest potential, and that's ultimately what keeps it from excelling. Sure it still kicks a lot of ass and many of the characters are familiar.
The show has its flaws and it's not as solid of an interpretation of the franchise as one might hope. The show answer to the question proposed above is "Yes, it's worth checking out", but it's not a resounding recommendation. If you've played any of the four Devil May Cry games then I'm sure you're probably very interested in this title. With that in mind, is Devil May Cry really worth the plunge? With the high definition anime market being slim pickings it's always a good thing to see a publisher support the format. Originally a part of the ADV Films brand back in the day, this one jumped ship and has found its way onto Blu-ray thanks to the good folks over at FUNimation. That last one is what we're looking at today with the release of Devil May Cry: The Animated Series Complete Collection by FUNimation. Movies turn into games, anime turns into movies, anime turns into games, and games turn into anime. These days it seems that if anything becomes popular in one medium it's going to appear in another.
