Netizens react to the season 2 announcement

The news of the renewal of Devil May Cry for a second instalment had netizens excited. A user on X wrote, “Watched Half of Season 1 and it was pretty dope. Definitely will take a Season 2. Now if we somehow get a new game… 15-30 years perhaps.” A second user wrote, “Woww, looking forward to S2!!”

However, fans also have some requests from the second season of the anime. A user wrote, “We did it. If only we could get a dance-off between Dante and Vergil for S2." Another user wrote, “ll give it another shot but do these things to make it better, Make Dante stronger, less Lady swearing/swearing in general, bring back Enzo, drop the CGI, give Lady her old outfit.” A third user wrote, “Please don't make Lady swear this much again.”
