Based on the series of Devil May Cry games made by Capcom, the anime has an original storyline that uses the characters from the game. When I watched it, it was the first anime I came across that had so much blood because I was always watching the usual shonen genres. I thought to myself,"Great! Finally I get to see some real action, not just endless beating with only scratches." In DMC, blood pretty much squirts like a fountain and I thought it was pure ecstasy. It is pretty violent after all, befitting of the series. I do not recommend this to a young audience, please wait until you're a little older so that you can control your bloodlust.
Each episode is a devil slaying adventure. It's very refreshing to watch and it ties nicely to an overarching plot line. In addition to Dante, Lady, and Trish from the game (and perhaps more characters since I'm not too familiar with the game), the anime includes an original character, Patty. Patty is a little girl probably the age of 12 or something like that and she appears at the Devil May Cry agency frequently acting as a maid-like character. Her character becomes more significant towards the end of the series because she holds a special key. Dante and company I assume are faithful to the previous renditions in the game. Dante is cocky at times but is pretty laid back if you ask me. He's very competent and has a very stylish wardrobe. In the anime, Dante really likes strawberry sundaes which really contrasts all that fighting he does against the devils.
I thoroughly enjoyed the soundtrack and pretty much hunted down for it because I like the opening theme of DMC so much. It has a lot of metal and orchestral elements that mirror the intense fighting and supernatural elements in the series. It is very action packed and the pacing is very fast. Even though it was my first bloody series, watching it a second time kind of lost its magic.
