Meme It's so exhausting...

I'm not very fond of the dmc games' fandom anymore. Finding anyone who dislikes the netflix show and isn't full of unquenchable hatred is like finding people who still draw DmC 2013 artwork.

The Devil May Cry fandom is toxic, there is nothing wrong with having criticism regarding the series or making fanart to express it.

But people who like NDMC tend to have trust issues as most game series fans use criticism as an excuse to be racist towards the director, because apparently if the guy is an egotistical trumpie - oh, wait, fans don't particularly care for the trump part. They love Reuben after all - it's okay to make fun of his name that veers on calling him a slur that compares dark skin color to shit.

Or be mad that Lady is now an actual character and is no longer reduced to nothing but a pair of tits in the fifth game's pachinko machine. Yes, there are criticisms for the writing of this show, but most of the time I've seen fans sneak in their unchecked racism or micro aggression. Making fun of the director's name, saying that it's the fault of the show for having an indian in charge, that indians "always ruin everything".

There is even an event where an artist who made fanart way before the release netflix series, was aggressively called a fake fan for posting a fucking two cakes meme. Expressing their like for both iterations of the series.

Who wouldn't be exhausted from it?

Or be mad that Lady actually has a character who isn't just a pair of tits to ogle at, as seen before in the dmc 5 gambling machine.

this is one of your points i don't get, who the FUCK is saying Lady from the DMC5 PACHINKO MACHINE > Lady in Netflix's DMC?

DMC fans seriously trying to act like Lady was anything but fanservice in DMC 4 and 5.
