Demon Lord Dante -
Dante Resurrects (Vol. 1)
Anime DVD Review
Teenager Ryo Utsugi has been disturbed by nightmares of a gigantic devil-creature who hunts down and murders young girls. Before he can pass this off as a sign of puberty, news arrives that young girls are indeed being brutally murdered.
In no time, Ryo discovers that he's caught in the middle of an epic war for possession of planet Earth. On one side stands a satanic cult bent on resurrecting the hideous Demon Lord Dante. On the other side is a secret cadre led by Ryo's own father. Can Ryo make sense of things before it's too late? Why does he get the sinking feeling that he might be a demon himself?
All of this should tell you one thing. Go Nagai is back in town. Yes, this series is based on a manga drawn by the creator of DEVILMAN. It's jam packed with demons, monsters, naked ladies in peril, and a whole lot of the ultra-violent. Sit back and enjoy the ensuing carnage. They just don't make Armageddon like this anymore.
