An Animated Epic? Dante’s Inferno Anime Spin-off

5 Comments

Due out in February in both Blu-ray and DVD formats, Dante’s Inferno: An Animated Epic is a collaborative effort by several studios to create “6 terrifying visions of Hell”. It looks fun, gory, and reminiscent of Le Chevalier D’Eon if I was having a bad acid trip.

    Looking good there. I approve of these animated shorts collections that video game and movie companies fund. The quality of the works maybe uneven, but it is a joy in itself to see a lot of money pumped in to a cartoon that’s not meant for kids or filled with cute girls.

  2. Sol says:

    Agreed, cartoons can be made for all ages. I’ll be interested to see more as it’s released. This may be the cause as it’s testing the waters for a longer release. Although this all depends on the reception from audiences.

    … this looks so losely-based, wich is considerable minus and so far, i don’t remember reading warfare in any part of the book.

    I am half-convinced of this and feel kind of weary of the attempt to make something cinematic and violent in a way i feel was not purpoted.

    May the best happen.

    • Wait, are there different versions or what?

      • Kuroneko says:

        just one.. and khaim is right… no warfare as i recall…

        its more of a “themed” thing i believe… the divine comedy tells of Dante alive only in context.. as he is guided by Virgil through hell and purgatory….

        no mention of a relationship with Beatrice is said if i remember well.. she is his guide through Heaven

        Think of this as the X-men anime… its got nothing to do with the original source… just … “inspired”

        doesnt make it bad.. just.. a new/different thing

        *owns the divine comedy in a leather bound big ass book toO big to carry around in both Spanish and Italian – left and right page respectively with woodcuts by Doré and loves every word and image of it*
