I don't have a ton of faith in this series, but replacing Reuben Langdon with Johnny Yong Bosch is a pretty baller move.

Ok no that dialogue with Dante was ass. That’s 100% shitty meta Marvel humor. Dante wouldn’t fail to come up with a shitty one liner then joke about how he’s usually good at this and he wouldn’t [expletive] reference Masters of the Universe. I was already extremely worried after Reuben Langdon didn’t come back and my concerns have not been quelled only amplified. I really don’t want to be like this but Devil May Cry is one of my favorite game series of all time and so far all I have seen does not invoke confidence.

The action and Dante's vibe feels accurate...though that's very American Western style Superhero humor.

This is 100% in character. Lest we forget that Dante had to stop mid-fight to beat on his jukebox because it wouldn't work.

The man is a whole dork.
