Is the Netflix series DMC canon???

[r.aiden.dav.i.d78.9]

I'm asking because I don't know what to think about it honestly and whether it requires knowledge games?.

[CherylPliskin]

No. The anime is set in it's own universe.

[ProjectXsent]

Nope

[aka]

No. It has nothing to do with the orginal Devil May Cry™

[Illaoi Bot]

its not it takes elements from every game and manga and makes it its own , i just finished it it was solid if you dont try to connect it with the ogs i say
8/10 maybe a 6 or 7 if you are a hardliner who wants to point out every mistake

[nwad]

It's not canon.

[r.aiden.dav.i.d78.9]

Ufff that god

[dprog1995]

That anime feels like a Devil May Cry 1 prequel that makes DMC 3 non-canon.(So far, I have only watched 4 episodes)

[Providence 777]

it's not an anime tho, Japan had nothing to do with directing, writing, or animating the show.

[KING JULIEN]

No and the netflix show is butt ass garbage

[BoyNextDoor]

THANK GOD THIS PIECIE OF ♥♥♥♥ AINT CANNON. ♥♥♥♥ netflix. Who tf is this even made for ?

[void]

No and thank God it isn't or we'll have another ten years without a sequel to the mainline games.

Good show.

Its best description is "This is what a DMC reboot should look like". Its still very clearly DMC, but its also not just a copy and paste of the same plot or structure.

Compared to that other attempt. Show's good, but anyone expecting strict adherence to canon will be caught off guard pretty quickly.

A small example is having Lady be more of a special agent police chief, thats an expert at demon hunting. If you can handle some remixes like that, then you'll like it. If youre the type to be appalled by a character getting a different position, then yeah, you wont like it.
