With Akito's help, Takagi gets another classmate and his school crush, Azuki Miho, who is an aspiring voice actress, to voice in the anime adaptation of their future manga once it is completed. However, Mashiro also proposes to Azuki, who surprisingly accepts only on the condition she will marry him when both of them have achieved their dreams. With a goal set before him, Mashiro begins a long and struggling path to become a famous mangaka.
The folks at ADV (and after its license rescue, at Funimation) know Devil May Cry's strengths well. It's no coincidence that every volume features more extras (mostly previews and cut scenes) for the Devil May Cry 4 game than for the series proper. After all, the game is the only thing the series has going for it. It's the reason the series got made, and its fans are the only people likely to enjoy the smelly slaughterhouse of butchered anime clichés that resulted. The series is an animated Frankenstein monster, a mash-up of fashionably over-utilized elements such as half-demon protectors, sexy lady warriors, tidal waves of blood, dorky demons, blunderingly obvious naming conventions, and perpetually broke jacks of all trades. Not to mention pervasive phallic imagery and a meticulously consistent lack of subtlety.
