Devil May Cry

This 2007 adaptation follows demon hunter Dante taking paid supernatural work with his sword and twin guns, bringing the video game’s action hero to television.

Synopsis
The Anime Lad

Dante makes money fighting demonic forces with the sword Rebellion and the twin guns Ebony and Ivory. His unusual nature leaves him positioned between the human world and the monsters he hunts. The 2007 television adaptation takes the video game’s armed confidence and places it inside a continuing series of supernatural work.

Super Eyepatch Fox

Dante accepts dangerous work involving demons and arrives carrying Rebellion alongside the twin guns Ebony and Ivory. Combat is both personal duty and paid profession. The television adaptation brings the video game hero’s sword-and-gun style into anime, keeping supernatural threats close to the practical question of whether a job pays.

Gigguku

Dante walks toward demonic trouble with a huge sword and two named guns, because restraint was never part of the equipment list. The 2007 anime brings the video game hero into a television format built around paid supernatural danger. Every job promises another excuse for impossible confidence and excessive firepower!

Father's Basement

A demon hunter with a giant sword and twin guns is not aiming for subtlety. The useful wrinkle is that Dante also treats supernatural danger as paid work. The television adaptation takes the video game’s central action fantasy and gives it a professional frame, keeping money beside every confrontation with darkness.

Cursed to live as both monster and man, Dante must spend his life fighting the demonic forces of darkness. Brandishing his sword, Rebellion, and his always-loaded guns, Ebony and Ivory, Dante is more than happy to send the demons back to hell, especially when there’s money to be made.
