DEVIL MAY CRY SERIES REVIEW
From arcade cabinets to your prefered console system in the living room, Capcom has brought hundreds upon thousands of hours of entertainment with video game classics like Mega Man, Resident Evil, Monster Hunter and the 2000s combo-juggling, demon-themed, first-person, sword-swinging, pistol-pulling, action-adventure, Devil May Cry. 25 years later Netflix is proud to present an eight episode anime adaptation created by Ari Shankar and animation studio Mir. Dante (Johnny Yong Bosch) is a gun for hire caught between a terrorist themed after the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland (Hoon Lee) and a devil hunting organization led by Chairman Baines (Kevin Conroy). Both sides want Dante’s help and an heirloom his mother betrothed to him before her untimely death. This amulet could be the key to piercing the veil between Earth and Hell. Dante must decide whether to team up with a special task force agent of these devil hunters named Mary (Scout Taylor-Compton) or step through the looking glass and discover just how deep the white rabbit’s hole goes. Bradly, Dogget, and Kim show no sympathy for the devil in this fast-paced, well-animated, take down of a capcom adaptation. Will this be the end of the line for Dante and his adventures or does the show earn the right to keep roll’n roll’n roll’n roll’n.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)
An avid defender of modern tv from olds. Shamer of hate watchers. Eager beaver pleaser for anyone who just wants a laugh.
Kimberly Brown (Highly Suspect Reviews)
Kimberly wants to live in a world filled with blue telephone boxes, speedsters, and ice dragons but through an ironic twist of fate, she’s stuck in this reality where these wondrous things only exist on page or film. Kim’s perpetual desire to consume sci-fi and fantasy media as a teen led her to the study of illustration/design at university to better understand its creation. Currently an Austin transplant, when she’s not wearing her critic hat you can find her pretending to like hiking, fielding questions about her hair or maybe even enjoying a local brew at the nearest dive bar.
