Devil May Cry Anime Season 2 Is Officially Coming to Netflix

Hold onto your swords because Devil May Cry fans have got some exciting news: the anime is officially getting a second season on Netflix!

The announcement came directly from Netflix on Twitter/X with a simple but epic post that read:

"Let's dance. Devil May Cry is officially coming back for Season 2."

Yeah, you read that right—Season 2 is a go!

Now, Netflix didn’t drop any major spoilers or hints about what’s coming in the next season. But they did confirm that the first season is available in full, so if you haven’t watched it yet (or need a refresher), you can catch up on all the wild, devilish action. And honestly, if you haven’t seen it, you might want to check it out because it has its fair share of crazy moments and stunning animation. Sure, it’s got its flaws—CGI that doesn’t always land and some predictable characters—but it also brings that Devil May Cry charm that fans love. In fact, the finale left enough of a cliffhanger to make us think Season 2 is going to go even harder.

For anyone who’s been following the anime’s journey, this second season shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. Adi Shankar, the creator behind the series, has been pretty vocal about wanting to turn Devil May Cry into a multi-season arc. And let’s be honest, with how popular the games are and the massive fanbase that’s been behind them, it only makes sense that the anime would get another shot.

In case you're new to the Devil May Cry world, the series first hit the scene as a video game developed by Capcom. It follows Dante, a demon hunter who’s out to stop the invasion of Earth by evil demons. If you’ve played the games, you already know how this goes—fast-paced, over-the-top combat with lots of crazy combos and huge, epic bosses. The anime takes a lot of that same energy, blending it with a twisted sense of humor and some seriously stylized animation.

Season 1 of the anime brought a lot of that to the table. Even though it wasn’t perfect, it definitely scratched that itch for anyone who loves the Devil May Cry games. Adi Shankar and Studio Mir (the team behind The Legend of Korra) brought some of the best animation seen in an anime this year. The visuals were wild, the action was nonstop, and the story took some unexpected turns—definitely setting the stage for a season that could take things even further.

In the first season, we saw Dante being his usual badass self—cocky, arrogant, and always ready for a fight. But the show wasn’t just about the action; it also dived into Dante’s backstory, giving us a deeper look into his past and what makes him tick. And, of course, the insane, demon-slaying antics kept things fun, even when the plot got a little messy. The humor, though, was a bit hit-or-miss, but it added a weird charm to the show. If you’re into shows that don’t take themselves too seriously but still deliver the goods when it comes to action, Devil May Cry is definitely worth checking out.

So, what’s next for Season 2? Well, we don’t know exactly what the storyline will be, but considering where the first season left off, it’s safe to say that things are about to get crazier. Fans of the games can expect more demon-slaying action, some new characters, and maybe even a few more epic battles that push the limits of what we saw in the first season.

One thing’s for sure: Devil May Cry Season 2 is going to be all about turning up the volume on the chaos. The first season set up a wild universe, and with Season 2 on the way, we can expect even more ridiculous moments, fast-paced fights, and, hopefully, fewer of the awkward moments that made some of Season 1 feel a little clunky. But hey, it’s part of the fun, right?

For those of us who’ve been following this series since the Devil May Cry games first came out in 2001, it’s pretty crazy to see this universe expand into new forms of media. The anime is just the latest chapter in what’s been an incredible journey for the franchise. From the games to comics, novels, and even action figures, Devil May Cry has left a massive impact on pop culture. And with the anime now getting a second season, it looks like Dante’s devil-hunting days are far from over.

So, mark your calendars, folks. Season 2 is on its way, and if the first season is any indication, we’re in for a ride that’s as wild as it is devilishly fun. Keep your eyes peeled for updates, and get ready for more of Dante doing what he does best—kicking demon ass in style.
