The First Circle

Episode 6 took me by complete surprise-this was peak cinema. The depth and emotion added here completely elevated the entire series. I initially saw Devil May Cry as more of a fun, easy watch, something to relax to. But this episode changed that entirely. The character development, storytelling, and atmosphere were all on a different level. It made me realize there's so much more to this show than I first thought. The stakes feel higher now, the world more immersive, and I'm fully invested. This was the turning point. The art style was amazing, and the no talking, only music part really hit well. 10/10.

I was not expecting that at all. Wow. I thought the show was good so far, nothing special, just a demon slasher with an OP / comic relief main character. Had its pegged as a low 7/10. Something to watch that was good but not memorable. This turned everything around. Iv never played the games so I can't speak on the lord of the show but man this was solid. Netflix are cooking lately.

This episode was amazing. Few words spoken but the back story was incredible. Now I don't know who to root for. Who are the real devils in the story? It's like Attack on Titan all over again, there's no right answer.

First episode Iv rated as well, definitely well worth the watch.

Amazing visuals just like every other episode. But this should have been a 5 minute story, cue title screen, and get on with it. I cannot stand the trend of TV shows dedicating an entire episode of there limited run to these side stories. This is an episode I wish I could have watched on 2x speed as there is hardly anything of consequence beyond some wick flashbacks. In fact, this could have been like a preview they uploaded on YouTube in between seasons to keep people excited. But this is not an episode worthy of an entire 20+ minute runtime as it relates to the story, and maybe I don't know, DANTE.

This episode changed the whole way I was watching the series. The Alluring visuals perfectly achieved the point of the whole story.

From the sudden shift of animation style to the back & forth between the backgrounds of characters at play really starts to make you question the point until, you reach the end. Then you sense a bit of uneasiness because the summery starts to creep in on our real world dilemmas. And the soundtracks, those hit hard especially the 'Afterlife'.

Not everything is black & white and I believe the director knew exactly how to bring the rabbit out of the hat (No pun intended).

This episode presents the White Rabbit as an exceptionally well-written villain. His backstory, life, and personality are masterfully developed, allowing for a deep understanding of his character without the need for lengthy dialogue. The soundtrack, which includes Evanescence's song "Afterlife," perfectly complements the narrative and adds intensity to the scene. Overall, this episode is a prime example of how to create a well-written villain in a video game adaptation. Hopefully, future seasons will maintain this level of quality and development; there's nothing better than seeing well-written villains in a video game adaptation.
