I finished watching the whole series last night. DMC was simply awesome!
I was looking for an anime that is shonen or seinen with a genre of action and with top priority on cool graphics - so I picked Devil May Cry with a lot of hesitations.
I also thought I would never watched this kind of anime because I was tired with so detailed-like graphics and animation TV series I used to watch back then. But then again I thought, I'll give it a try. Man, I was wrong! I was hooked up right after I watched the first episode.
I'll break down my
...
thoughts on the anime without giving spoilers (hopefully). :)
Art:
When I watched the first episode, I said, "WOW!". The graphics left me in awe with nicely drawn characters and backgrounds. Colors used were also great - with Dante in red dress and white-grey hair of which I thought before was boring if this is his "uniform" but then again, I was wrong if you’re caught up with the story.
I give the art as 10/10.
Sound:
The OP soundtrack was superb and in sync with (flashes of) characters in their little scene. I did not read that entire lyrics of the ED soundtrack but the melody was nice.
Sound effects were also superb.
Overall, sound is top-notch and I give it 10/10.
Story:
I like how the anime story was somewhat divided per episode but each ep was connected in reaching to the climax. I really like the last episode. It left me smiling after watching it. I like to watch more of this anime!
I also like the fact that they employ humor in the story for the main character; though humors here are little as this anime focus on serious action.
Why it's not 10? Maybe because it's a short series and I would like watch more about the main character's development as he is in the anime.
It's 9/10 for me.
Character:
I say the main characters were cool with cool moves and were nicely drawn. I even found Dante sexy. Now, don’t get me wrong. :D His moves were cool and sexy especially with his guns and sword. The lead female characters were also pretty cool and sexy.
I give them 10/10.
Enjoyment:
The entire series is a total enjoyment for me. Pretty cool characters and their moves with top notch graphics to go with. Story is not so intricate for me but it also gives mysteries which were unfolded in the climax.
I totally enjoyed this anime, so it’s 10/10. 2 thumbs up!
I highly recommend this to those who look for action anime with very nice graphics, cool characters, superb sound, and story in one package.
