The video game adaptations are well and truly taking over. Just a week after its first season premiere, Devil May Cry has been renewed for another season on Netflix. The series arrived last Friday and, The Hollywood Reporter writes, “In just its first four days of availability, the animated series racked up 5.3 million views (21 million hours viewed divided by its three-hour, 56-minute runtime), according to Netflix.”
The show also landed in Netflix’s top ten in 87 countries, which is, you know, kind of a lot.
Devil May Cry adapts the story that began as a Capcom video game series before branching out into comics, collectibles, action figures, and the general whole shebang. Netflix’s synopsis says:
Sinister forces are at play at the portal between the human and demon realms. In the middle of it all is Dante, an orphaned demon hunter for hire, unaware that the fate of both worlds hangs around his neck.
Johnny Yong Bosch voices Dante, and the rest of the cast in the first season includes Scout Taylor-Compton, Hoon Lee, Chris Coppola, and Kevin Conroy in a posthumous role. The adaptation comes from showrunner Adi Shankar, who was also an executive producer on Netflix’s Castlevania adaptation.
There’s no word yet on when season two might arrive.[end-mark]
