Devil May Cry shows us a relatively short story, which is based on popular Playstation 2 game, about Dante and his adventures.
Dante is a son of a powerful demon Sparta, that disappeared two thousands years ago, and a human woman. Since he likes our world and is only half-demon, his job is hunting down hell-creatures. Though it sounds like a cool profession, it turns out like a bad-paid one.
That's why, Dante runs his own office,"Devil May Cry". People go to this place only in cases their problem is unusual or unbelievable for police, for example, demon attack. And judging by the amount of time that Dante spends for eating ice-creams or reading books in each episode, there aren't many cases of such a kind.
Moreover, our hero has a lot of debs and it seems that he owes even to his clients. That's why, each time he gets a job, all of his money goes for paying enormous sums, mainly to Lady. Lady is a human devil hunter, who often helps Dante along with other characters: Trish, Patty Lowell and Morrison. All of them are well-planned and do not let you to get bored during the show.
In addition, Devil May Cry has great graphics. All of the details are paid attention and an overall picture looks beautiful. As a result, you will totally enjoy action scenes (like fighting, driving etc.).
However, all of these features can't "hide" the disadvantages of the plot. Most of the episodes aren't connected at all to the main idea of this anime and some of them continue it only by providing you few more details.
As soon as I finished watching the final episode, I realized that in order to get the point of Devil May Cry anime, it is enough to watch the first two and the last two episodes. Which means, the rest of them may be seen as "additional interesting mini-stories". Such construction will probably suit people who don't want there favourite series to end.

Devil May Cry is about a half breed (half human, half demon) named Dante. Dante is a demon hunter.
He works at a place called Devil May Cry. Where you can ask him to do a job for you. For the right price of course!
He lives with a little girl name Patty. He sometimes works with someone named Lady and Trish. Sometimes the
jobs are so fun that he doesn't charge his clients a cent. Did I mention that he is in a really big debt!
