History[]

Currently, this version of Devil May Cry Abridged is one of the few series to finish the anime it was based on. However, because Devil May Cry is also a game, SonOfSparda13 continued the series using footage from the games, starting with Devil May Cry 3, because its time-line occurs before all the other games. Upon completing Devil May Cry 3, SonOfSparda13 continued on to abridge Devil May Cry 4, using one episode of this series to tell the story from DMC1 in the form of a flashback.

SonOfSparda13 has released a one-shot of DmC: Devil May Cry 5. He appears unlikely to continue abridging this installment of the series due to his general hatred of DmC 5, and a greater interest in other projects (such as work on a Shin Megami Tensei Persona 4 Abridged Parody uploaded on youtube under the name SilentBrotagonist)

Production[]

The production of Devil May Cry Abridged was slow going, because SonOfSparda13 is often forced to balance his personal life with his abridged series. There was one especially notable delay in production when his girlfriend was hospitalized in 2011, during which time he threatened to stop production of the series entirely. Fortunately for fans, he never made good on that threat, and continued with Devil May Cry Abridged.

Most of SonOfSparda13's work prior to DMC4 Abridged, Episode 5 was edited using Movie Maker and GIMP. He now uses Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, and After Effects CS5.

A revised version of the first episode of the animated series, titled "The Re-Makening" was released about two-years after SonOfSparda13 completed the last episode of the Abridged Animated Series.
