Many different art styles

Warning: Spoilers
The story line is a little different then the actual game and the language is a bit forced. They used old time language which means its heavy in old English. But the voices are perfect and don't change from what they should be.

The worst parts that they changed the facts of who sowed the cross on Dante's chest. It meant more when Dante was the one that placed it on him self. It showed he was willing to look at his sins where when it was placed on by some supernatural creature, then it shows he is forced to look at what has happened. It is a little bothersome that they had to change the whole reasoning for that.

The art style changes a bit threw the show like each circle was drawn by a different person, and I think it's because there were way too many people working on this one movie. Each director pretty much got a piece of hell to work with and I guess they never shared the design of the main character with one another because Dante and Virgil really do not look the same though out the show. The only style that feels like it belongs is the first one, mostly the reason why I had kept watching. The first one shows a style much like a American Comic Book character. Normally I didn't like that style, but I like it for this one. It has a rather nice idea of a hero who had to overcome everything for the one he loved.

As the story keeps going, sadly, some of the circles seem to be cut short and its sad because some of the areas could of just excluded a bit to give them equal time.

How Virgil acts, it seems that he is trying to make Dante destroy Hell. Take it as you will on that but it's what it feels like to me. For all it's worth, It is a good one even if the art style changes.
