Portal:Anime and Manga/Selected lists/18
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of episodes of the Devil May Cry anime. The episodes are directed by Shin Itagaki and produced by Madhouse Studios.[1] The English adaptation of the anime has been licensed by ADV Studios.[1] They are based on the Devil May Cry video game series produced by Capcom. The background of the storyline is primarily based on the first and third installments of the series, Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3 respectively.
The anime was originally announced at the Tokyo Game Show on September 22, 2006, with plans to release twelve episodes of the series.[2] Unlike most anime, the episode titles were released in English instead of the customary Japanese.[3] The first episode aired on June 14, 2007, with the twelfth shown on September 6, 2007.[4] The episodes aired on WOWOW.[1]
Two pieces of theme music are used for the episodes, one opening theme and one closing theme. The opening theme is "d.m.c." by rungran, and the closing theme is "I'll be your home" by Rin Oikawa.
