    The Devil May Cry anime is coming, Netflix promises.

    There’s not much new info in this latest video, but showrunner Adi Shankar does seem very excited about the upcoming adaptation of the beloved action series. “We’re working very hard,” he says.

    Good vs. evil, but with cats.

    We already knew that Netflix was working on an animated series based on the card game Exploding Kittens, and now we have our very first glimpse at the series, which features god in the body of a cat and a very confounding garage door. The show is expected to start streaming in 2024.

    The distressed look.

    Saturday’s edition of Geeked Week opened with the first trailer for Damsel, in which “a dutiful damsel agrees to marry a handsome prince, only to find the royal family has recruited her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt.” It stars Millie Bobby Brown as the princess, is directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, and will hit Netflix in 2024.

    A marvelous weekend for entertainment.

    Leading the way this week is The Marvels, which, it turns out, is actually quite fun. Dream Scenario is also in theaters (it was one of our favorites from TIFF this year) this weekend, while David Fincher’s The Killer is now streaming on Netflix.

    Elsewhere, Loki just wrapped up its second season on Disney Plus, The Invincible brings a hard sci-fi adventure to next-gen consoles and PC, Apple Arcade hit Air Twister is finally on PC and console, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s huge wave of new tracks is now complete.

    Watch out for the snake.

    Netflix hasn’t really let up its push into anime, and the latest example is its adaptation of the Onmyōji fantasy novels. The series starts streaming on November 28th, but you can check out a new clip from the first episode right now — which features a cute frog and a not-so-cute snake.

    Get obliterated.

    The creators of Cobra Kai are back with what’s described as “a high octane action-comedy that tells the story of an elite special forces team who thwarts a deadly threat to Las Vegas.” You can get a sense of that in the clip below, before the whole series starts streaming on November 30th.

    Oh brother.

    The first teaser for The Brothers Sun is short, but it packs in a lot, from a fight in a dinosaur suit to Michelle Yeoh drilling into a dead body. Not sure what else you need. The dark action comedy hits Netflix on January 4th.
