Netflix's Devil May Cry Shirt Makes Major Character Name Blunder
14 May
Summary
- Netflix removed a Devil May Cry t-shirt due to a spelling mistake.
- The shirt misspelled the character Virgil as 'Virgil'.
- The name Virgil is inspired by a Roman poet.
A t-shirt intended to celebrate the Devil May Cry adaptation on Netflix has been removed from the company's storefront following a notable spelling error. The merchandise featured a design with the series' main protagonist, Dante, alongside his brother. However, the shirt incorrectly spelled the brother's name as 'Virgil'.
This misspelling is particularly ironic, as the character's name is indeed inspired by the famous Roman poet Virgil. The error has sparked discussion among fans, highlighting the fine line between character names and historical figures that share similar spellings. Capcom, the game's developer, has a history of unique naming conventions and elaborate DLC titles.
