Devil May Cry 3 (Manga)

Devil May Cry 3 is an official manga prequel to Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening. The manga consists of three volumes, named Code 1, Code 2, and Code 3, but the last one was never published. It was first released in Japan, and the English version was then released in 2005. The events of the manga take place some time before the game's, likely about a year, as referenced by Dante in Mission 2: The blood link.[1] Published in America by Tokyopop, the manga is rated "Older Teen, Age 16+" and classified as "Action" by their classification systems. The art style is detailed and the human proportions are made realistic, so that is stays as close to the games as possible, though character eyes are enlarged to convey emotion in accordance with anime style. Additionally, the manga plays with light and dark to cue the reader to the tone of the scene: Pages with scenes about Vergil or Arkham are generally black, while those dealing with Dante, Lady, or the others from the human realm are usually white. These subtle visual cues help the reader transition between story foci, which shift often to describe simultaneous action
