Guess there really was a development hell after all but they changed Langdon like in Street Fighter 6? The premise reminds me to the dmc3 manga which acted as a prequel to the Game so I can see season the manga and third Game serving as the basis for the seasons

The casting of Dante is a little funky...but it looks okay.

Johnny Yong Bosch is just about the perfect casting for Dante. Also didn't expect them to pull from the unfinished DMC3 prequel manga. Looking good.

That sounds like JYB, who voices Nero in the games ...

Dante going up against a bunch of regular guys and a very undemonic-looking blue thing already doesn't bode great, and that's without JYB hinting they might be trying to do something really stupid with Dante.

I guess I'm not surprised they recast Dante but JYB? When he already plays his nephew in the games!? It just sounds and feels weird. And I love JYB.

Wow the action here looks wild, its already far more animated than the first anime from this trailer alone.

I mean its not like a trailer is going to show everything and even then there are quick shots of some monstrous looking demons. The human-looking soldiers are likely an episode one starter threat and it will get crazier from there.

Based on Adi Shankar's prior work this is most of the action we'll see in the season.

Even ADV got Dante's VA back when they dubbed the Anime adaptation. So why can't a dub produced in LA do the same.

Would it be anymore stupid than canonically what’s been done with Dante in the games.

Like some of his cornball dialog?

There are rumors about issues between him and Capcom cost his role as Ken Masters in 6

There are apparently some characters here from the incomplete DMC 3 manga. Having that to follow might rein in Shankar’s worst instincts.

JYB kind of gave me the vibe on twitter that there's a plot reason it's him instead of Reuben.
