Let's take a look back at my analysis on Dante and see what your reactions were to it in the comments :D

Hey you know how you keep recommending videos, well I like to do that but idk if it rude or something. But here type this into youtube. "Vergil is just Hilarious by R5G". I think you enjoy this
If I were to give dmc and alternative title, it would literaly be "Daddy Issues: The Game"
8:30 maybe some of those people don't like nero because his appearance and behavior almost reflects dmc reboot dante and look over that instead of the humanized nero that has been well established
At least that's my theory
But nero is cool guy nonetheless
I honestly enjoyed DmC despite its flaws. I sort of wonder if you can do videos on it without flying into a rage, or weeping hysterically. Not that I'm challenging you or anything...
I gotta disagree with ya at 10:33, i don't think Dante couldn't take a Relationship serious in any Way. I think he just doesn't want to risk losing anyone else to Demons, even if Lady is powerful, she is still a Human, throw a strong enough Demon at her and she could die, and i don't think Dante wants to relive through losing a loved one again after his Mother and Brother (though temporarily).
Anyways great Video my Dude, i appreciate the DMC Content.
Hey I appreciate your input 💪💪💪 I can see your point
Thanks a ton! You sparked a bit of a train of thought about this in me.
To continue on with my Theory we can look at the end of DMC5. Dante has no Reason to accompany Vergil to the Underworld, latter is strong enough to cut the Qliphoth roots on his own, but Dante doesn't or can't risk losing his Brother again, considering what happened to Vergil after DMC3. Tying into my Theory about Dante not wanting to lose anyone that matters to him again.
Anyway, thank you if you read this, first Time i'm kind of "arguing" about something like this.
This also ties into why Dante didn't want Nero to help him with Vergil/Urizen. Yes I know Dante told him that Vergil was his dad and that he shouldn't have to kill him, but the fact is Dante knew that Nero was his nephew. Whether or not Nero lost his arm, I bet you anything that Dante would've told him to back off not just because he felt Vergil was his responsibility but because Nero was the only real family he had outside of Vergil.
Plus wouldent Dante also just outlive her and loose her that way wolverine style
The thing about Dante from 6:29 reminds me of one comic about Deadpool where he finds out he Has a daughter and is actually a good father but still hides his sadnes under all the jokes
That sounds heavy
Yeah it was specially the ending. If you are curious I think comicstorian made a few vids about that story
@@unclechair2208 Was that the ending where Deadpool got amnesia after cap and his android friend were going after him or when the 2015 Secret Wars event was going on?
In the first novel that Hideki Kamiya helped out on, the reason why Dante was always broke is because he'd only buy really expensive clothes and was picky about the jobs he'd take. Also I'm pretty sure wacky woohoo pizza man is a reference to the DMC playthrough by superbestfriendsplay RIP. Could be wrong tho. Love your deep dives!

Me: This man's gonna dive deep dish into Dante.
*get it? Pizza is deep dish? No? Ight....*
Imma order a pizza just cause of this comment
@@ChampionAnalysis an excellent decision.
@@ChampionAnalysis Pizza is the Essence of the Universe!
06:25 well it is true, he being dorky only infront of his friends/partner.
When alone he act serious towards demons, we can see him act like this in Anime, Novel Vol 02,DMC 2, at beggining DMC 4 and DMC 5 when he tired to clean Vergil mess.
Nero didnt beat Vergil because Nero was more powerfull he defeat him because Dante just finishet beating the living shit out of him with a god damn motorcycle (atleast i did) and Nero was fresh and unharmed
I beat him using the Pole dance move (King Cerberus fire mode move)
Nero surpassed them buddy, get over it
@@ichigokurosaki9098 Honestly? I think it's meant to be ambiguous overall, but I agree with you that Nero surpassed Vergil in that fight. Leaving aside power scaling, Nero fought with purpose, and Vergil did not. He just fought because that's all he knew to do. He lacked MOTIVATION.
@@ichigokurosaki9098 Nero did not surpass Vergil or Dante in that fight. Dante and Vergil just got done beating the shit out of each other do you really think he was at full strength in that fight? He was practically running on fumes
@@AHappyBlackGuy Dmc 3 also proves this, arkham beat them after they were slapping each other about, nero just put them out of their need to kill each other.
0:30 I do have a personal theory that relates to this somewhat: In 5, Nico presents her theory about demons evolving based on their own personal desires. Could that mean that Dante's devil trigger has its coat-wings entirely because *Dante just really loves his coat*?
Jes, that's also the reason why Vergil has a *_big ol V_* on his SDT
I really dig your character breakdowns. keep pumping them out lol
They say that human blood gives demons power. Nero has a majority of human blood in him.
Yeah I heard that as well, so it also makes sense for Nero to be stronger than Dante and Virgil and his motivation.
It makes tons of sense when you consider that demons no matter the variety feed off of humans even if its physically or spiritually. So having a demon with tons of humanity to feed off of, does click.
It doesn't work verbatim like that. Being more human than demon doesn't matter, Nero only won because of something the series has blatantly told us, that when exhausted you don't have to be even close to Dante and Vergil's level to beat them. Just look at Arkham.
@@bluhmer1990 Nero surpassed them, deal with it buddy
@@ichigokurosaki9098 You clearly never payed attention to the series if you think that. Devil May Cry 3 clearly showed that when the Sparda brothers are exhausted you don't have to be very strong to beat them. Dante even took a nap while Nero and Vergil fought. Are you one of those people that are going to try and convince everybody that 2+2=5?
6:39 I mean the DMC anime ending theme is literally Dante drinking by himself.
Tbh, the writers explain Nero's victory over Vergil by saying that the latter was exhausted fighting Dante - the only being in the universe *ever* to match him, not because the difference in motivation or demon blood percentage. The cutscene before the fight show that Dante is tired enough to say "fuck it", meaning Vergil was at least as exhausted as him. Nero is still detrimentally weaker than his father or uncle, because as we all remember, he couldn't beat Urizen in either of his "lazy" forms (except for the hidden achievement).
The story ends with Nero officially becoming *the* Devil Hunter of the human world replacing Dante - at this point, his power is closer to that of Dante in DMC3/DMC1. This gives us a chance for a restart of the game cycle, now with Nero as the protagonist.
I have a hard time believing that tbh. Hear me out here:
Dante was at DMC2/DMC4 level when he first fought Urizen, and he had Lady and Trish with him, both capable hunters themselves. Despite this, he couldn't even get his shield down from what we could see. Nero managed to down his shield and inflict a wound (however minor) while mostly cut off from his Demonic abilities (no DT, no Buster, no Yamato) and having only his enhanced physical prowess. Dante needed his Sin DT to hurt Urizen, so imo, if Nero were able to achieve his full DT, it could be more powerful than Dante, not to mention the aforementioned motivation factor mentioned in the video.
TL;DR Saiyan biology applies to demon hybrid apparently.
@@TheBrokenMadMan I disagree with that Dante needed Sin DT:
In the fights ahead and that one, Sin DT is just a starter, as you can get rid of the shield normally.
Nero had managed to inflict a *single* wound - with his last breath too - to Urizen. He had his Breakers, and considering that Buster Breaker does more damage than Buster, I'd say they're *stronger* than Nero's initial demonic potential.
And plus we all know Dante: his head wasn't in the game that day and he wasn't prepared for Vergil in that form specifically, so there's that
Why did you write tbh before the comment. What does being honest have to do with anything
Every DMC video you make is another kick in the pants for me to finally play them. They've been "on my list" for far too long.
Highly recommend :) Its the game that gave me a huge boon in subs so I try to cater to the audience here and there
who would lose a fight Dante or Doomslayer .
The answer: all demons in existence
No cap
Litteraly every demon would be obliterated in the most stylish or bloody way possible
I love your videos on Devil May Cry. Keep up the great work man!!!!
Oh man your DMC vids were wonderfull and they brought me to this chanel so thank you for making them
This was actually a really fun video to watch. I hope you make more of them. I'm also still waiting for that Lucia video.
I like your retrospectives on DMC! Hope more after this one.
And once again I'm reminded how grateful I am this channel exists.
I'm so glad Stephen Smith made the comment he did because I feel the same about DMC 2. Despite the gameplay being so vastly different and weaker than the rest of the series, I feel like there is a decent bit of character there involving Dante and Lucia.
Without writing a dissertation (lol), I'll only mention the coin. I know a lot of people hated it, but it adds additional weight to your points on Dante not being a hero but also being both compassionate yet not appearing selfless. The whole game Dante knew the coin was two sided, but instead of simply agreeing to help Lucia and Matier, he insisted on letting them both believe that his helping was purely luck working in their favor. This allows him to remain distant enough that he can still help them without them feeling entirely dependent on or indebted to him. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
You know while im not big in the shipping thing i feel like a relationship with dante and lady could work. Maybe they are more extra around other people or on missions but i feel like lady could realy give dante the place in humanity he so despretly seeks. She could make him fit in, just the way he is. Adding the history they have it would be nice if he ever retieres. Plus imagine the child of these two, the combi of his white hair and her blue/red eyes would look incredible
I like how DMC 5 presents many little details from previous games, novels, etc. that shows how deep everyone is, for example the Menu of the game makes you understand that is been seen from the perspective of Nero (files, documents, Nico's reports, etc.) for example there are letters from Morrison to Nero that explain a little about how Dante was before DMC 3 and how those events change Dante explaining a little about how the death of Vergil affect him. Also show how Nero really doesnt know too much about Dante thought they know each other for what years I think. Theres also how Dante, Vergil and Nero deal with insecurities and problems, Dante acts cool, funny and like he does'nt care, Vergil is cold and tries to overpower anyone that treats him, but when Dante and Vergil can't do that they show some insecurity and they don't have anyone that they can talk to but with Nero is different he has Kyrie someone he trust and can show his insecurities just like before the battle against Vergil in Mission 20, wich takes me to how the battle go, Nero isn't stronger that Dante and Vergil. He was only able to defeat Vergil because he was alredy fighting Dante and was enough weak to defeat him, but the fight also shows more. Dante and Vergil are fighting over their own ideals of how to live. When Vergil sees Dante (his equal in power and nemesis) too tired to keep fighting thanks to previous battles and Nero.He says that he will figth Nero to show how his ideals are right, but when Nero defeats him he accept that his search for power is not enought and that there is some merit to what Dante says and represents. Also if one pays attention when Dante and Vergil figth you can see them some form of a smile from time to time. I think is because 1 it's the only thing that they been doing since they where kids so is like a reminder of better times for the two of them (when they were kids and figth over small stuff but they were a family and their mother was alive). 2 It's a way to show that they respect each other in battle as warriors and they let their blades do the talk. 3 It also is a battle of their ideals which is something we alredy know from DMC 3. But when Nero defeats Vergils the whole ideals fight is like over and they are more relax after that which maybe is a sign of how both of them where tired of the whole thing but they still fight each other because is how they express their feelings to the other like the scene in hell after credits. I hope that they explore more of this in future games. I love your videos.
Man your content is amazing ! i can't believe i didn't discover ur channel earlier 🙃
Need more of these...It responded some of my doubts and sometimes made me laught...By the way, I love your videos of Devil May Cry and the one from the Persona series...
Also, on the note about Nero overpowering Dante and Virgil, keep in mind that Dante and Virgil just got done going all-out against each other and were both probably already on their last legs. More powerful Devil Trigger or no, they had still just been caught at the tail-end of a fight between one another and Nero, having had, at least, a little time to rest prior to Devil Triggering(?) while he talked to Kyrie, he was on a much more even playing field.
10:41 according to one of my friends while we were drunk and trying to see who could get further on bloody palace he said something like
Lady is Dante’s ex who he still on good terms with but his true and final love is Lucia partly cuz he can’t out live her like he will with lady
Here's mine: What if Dante ever ends up finding love in the Demon World? If he did, I can imagine a new demoness better than Lucia who'd guide him and Vergil throughout the Demon World especially with Mundus. I go for Dante having a daughter!
I actually thought up a daughter for Nero and Kirye. I named her Seres. She likes poetry, like her Grandpa. Is loyal to her Family like her dad. And she also likes making fun of her enemies. She also has Heterochromia and white pigtails. Her left eye is blue and her right eye is golden. I first gave her a Long sword, but then I changed it to a Katana, because Dante and Nero already wield big swords. And her Main companions are Agni and Rudra from DMC 3. I just like the idea of Dante giving his grandniece a few of his old weapons. And I also Love Seres' dynamic with the two. Most importantly, they call her Young Mistress. And I also really love the Idea of her just calling Vergil Gramps. It's so funny how Casual she is about certain things. I also gave Neros mom a backstory, so she can be cool as well. I need an actual good picture of Seres, but I sadly can't draw for Shit. Maybe I'll ask my sister to Draw me a cool picture of her. And also mocking people with poetry is awesome. And If Dante has a daughter at some point she would have a grand Cousin. Do you have a Design in mind for this character?
@@Nikita_Akashya That's what I've been trying to figure out. Had to picture Dante's future wife first. There are a variety of concepts I keep trying to put together like a puzzle. Lucia's an artificial demon, but I need to figure out a good real demoness. Not another Trish clone.
A demoness the brothers meet who'd guide them in the Demon World. Do you see Dante with some Batman & Green Arrow vibes? I tried to picture the female demon like Ivy from Soulcalibur, Sareena from Mortal Kombat, Catwoman, Psylocke & Talia Al Ghul. It's so hard!
The future daughter? Tried to think of a rapier as her signature sword.
@@Nikita_Akashya You made seres way too much like dante in my opinion'
@@mashrurrafid2361 Nah, she's more like a mix between Dante and Vergil. She is very casual about most stuff, but get's very serious about her poetry. Her fighting style is also very different from Dante and more like Vergils. I also gave her two pistols: Ignis and Pneuma. My idea is, that she can shoot windblades and fireballs from them later on. And Seres actually cooks. When people talk about liking pizza, she always references how her grand uncle eats nozhing but pizza. I also prefer her to only have her three main weapons: Agni&Rudra, Ignis&Pneuma and the Chrysantheme. And she's way more serious than Dante. She's the only member of the family in the family who can jump between dimensions after all. But maybe she does sound too much like Dante. I actually tried to avoid that.
@@Nikita_Akashya You should become an author man .I will vote
Now I’m imagining a retrospective retrospective where the comments on this video get replied to, it’d be like one of those videos where they play a video within itself
Hello from late 2022 Yay we survived also love what you do and I'm still waiting on that Lucia Video (Super Underrated Character) no biggy Anyway keep up the great work
This is awesome. Thank you!
>people who don't like Nero
"Ehhhh, he's not Dante, boooo!"
Wow, it's almost like we have different characters who aren't carbon copies of Dante, what a tragedy.
And these same people downplay Nero’s strength so much even to this day
Lmao the moment I found that young maestro vid around the time of it's release I kept it Ina playlist and I come back to it every so often it's THAT good
Yung maestros video is the funniest shit I’ve seen so glad to see you reference him
Dante is very depressed. In the outro of the DMC anime, he’s just drinking an entire bottle of whiskey by himself. Not only is he depressed, but an alcoholic too
How would you feel having to be personally responsible for what you thought was your twin Brother's death.
Like your hand ended his life, your face was the last thing he would have seen.
That shit would break anyone. I don't care how tough you think you are.
Agreed
He even owns a fridge full of canned beers in the anime, Mission 8.
I think Nero's victory is a mixture of what you said and the fact that dante had softened him up a bit.
4:29 On a whim, I searched UA-cam for an analysis of Dante's emotional depths. As a son of immigrants, I had been low-key hoping for a take comparing it to bicultural identification. I didn't expect it to be this on point! I sure felt that indeed.
I am glad one of my videos could help provide that for you! I'm also the son of an immigrant family 💪
Still waiting on the Lucia video
when you brought up the bicultrual identity i was like "YES" because i am mixed race (Black and white) and i always had a disconnect between to the two ethnicity with turned into something that drawn me toward Dante more besides the wacky woohoo pizza man
sorry for the low-key life story
I think Dante is extremely brooding in dmc2 because he feels that he's not only lost Vergil but Patty. As much as he found her annoying I think he grew fond of her and saw her as a little sister of sorts and she brought some much needed sunshine when no one else would. When she went to live with her mother he felt like he'd lost something again. It's only when he sees Nero who reminded him of Vergil and a younger him in a way that he remembered how he always filled that void with his wacky and no care attitude.
Also by the way since Patty turned 18 in dmc5 and was 8 in the anime that means in the anime he was 33-35 since he's 43-45 in dmc5. Nero is 19 in dmc4 and is in his mid twenties in dmc5 making him 24-26 and since Dante was 38 during the events of dmc4.
How would you imagine a Sparda Prequel?
Think about the clothes of lady
Believe it of not the final boss fight of DmC introdused me to the normal series. When I saw the first trailer of DMC 5 I was “Who are they” and then became a fan after some research
I never viewed it that way I always thought that as much as Dante and Vergil for it they would never kill each other, it was like their way of showing love without saying it, but I also feel like Virgil Hill back in that fight especially seeing how he one shot him afterwards
I think the reason Nero kicked both Dante and Vergils asses is because they just went through a big fight with each other, and were in there 40's, not exactly at there prime anymore
I even remember that Trish went to buy clothes in the anime.🤣
I thought Vergil was exhausted from fighting Dante, giving Nero the opportunity beat him. You know like Jester/Arkam steam rolled both sons of sparda and openly mocking both for being to exhausted to even hit him
I'm sure someone ha already said it, but DmC isn't irrelevant. We wouldn't of had the popoff of Vergil using Dopelganger without DmC, also there are lines in Dante and Vergil's 5 fight that directly reference things said in DmC. Also Vergil's illusory realm when fought as Urizen for the last time is a reference to how the demon realm looked in DmC. There's a bunch of other visual themes that are brought over, and even a reference to the Soda Mundus had people drinking in DmC in an S rank photo in 5.
There's actually a lot of homage to what DmC tried to do, it may have failed horribly but it seems the creators still respect the attempt and the talent that went into it
The simple thought of DANTE trying to get into the fashion Industry cracks me up so hard it’s funny.
8:20 So basically Nero was more MOTIVATED than his father
Noiceee
DMC is actually not irrelevant at all. It made a HUGE contribution to the series as its the first dmc in which u can switch styles and weapons on the fly, mid combo. Also got this cool lil feature which lets u start a combo in one style or weapon and finish the special move with a different style or weapon without switching your button pattern. Its also the first dmc with a true teleport move not just a jump cancel. U can literally fight bloody palace and never touch the ground. All those features carried over and were expanded upon in dmc5. So that persons comment was accurately irrelevant in its inaccuracy.
Personally, my ship was always Dante x Lucia. Especially the ending with her waiting for him. She and Trish have a similar backstory, but they follow exactly opposite paths. Lucia was obviously actually romantically interested in Dante and him helping her come to terms with her demonic heritage, only goes to show her how much more blessed she was to have lived her life as a human. Meanwhile, Trish had to discover her humanity, she needed to leave and find herself and come to terms with what it meant to be an individual.
Lucia already has those things.The thing she was looking for was someone else to sure up the life she'd chosen and I see that as being Dante. I agree with you about not seeing Dante taking a relationship seriously, but I think Lucia is serious enough for both of them and probably way more emotionally honest than Dante's used to in friends or family for that matter. She's open, earnest, and like most of the people in his life, dangerous enough to keep up should things go bad.
For the fight thing you mentioned. Weren’t they also tired as hell before Nero smacked him?
4:53 That's exactly what I'm thinking.. It could explain why deep down he's calling himself a subhuman in his theme song. Because he truly identifies as a human, but even if he's willing it, he knows that he will never be a true human being. His demonic half make him "worse" in his opinion
Can you do Nero second?
Don’t forget that Dante and Vergil just had an epic battle and if you remember back in Devil may cry 3 because of how hard Dante and Vergil battle, Arkham who said if Vergil was in tiptop condition he be able to cut him to confetti let alone Dante and a lady both also be in there only for Arkham to completely fondle all three. That combined with Nero being more human because he has human blood constantly feeding his demonic power more so than Dante and Vergil he has a better potential I don’t think he’s stronger than either one yet but he is catching up to them very quickly.
Also I have proof that all three of them are stronger than Sparda.
First of all in the first game when Dante obtains sparda’s sword he becomes the perfect image of his father against Mundos on top of that he does more damage to Mundos the whet sparda did, sparda left a gaping hole in Mundos’ torso meanwhile Dante left him as a head
Second of all in devil may cry 2 argosax was too powerful for sparda to kill otherwise you would think he done it but he didn’t he had a seal him away... Dante beat him in his human form
Hopefully by now I’ve already explained how Dante has far surpassed his father now let’s move to the fifth game
Urizen completely dominates Dante even with the sparda also a lot of people don’t know this but when Dante was in a month coma The tree was indirectly feeding him human blood that’s why Dantes hair was so bloody when v found him it was from his body absorbing the blood that combined with Dante absorbing the rebellion and sparda it’s pretty safe to say he is far surpassed his father and he fights on par with Vergil so that also means he has surpassed his father as well
Finally let me get to Nero during Nero’s second fight with urizen he is able to put a scratch on him something that Dante could not do that combined with getting his Devil trigger I personally believe that Nero is right behind his father and uncle and the only reason he was able to beat them was because they were tired even if it was just a little it was enough for him to be able to beat them I also believe Vergil is the strongest considering Nero hit Dante once and Dante was basically like screw it you 2 fight I don’t care meanwhile Vergil has a completely separate fight with Nero makes me think he is the strongest even if it’s just a little above Dante
So in conclusion all three of them had surpassed sparda and Nero beat Dante and Vergil because they were already fighting each other and used up at least some of their power enough to the point where Nero could beat them
So for all the haters saying it makes no sense Nero is able to beat them it makes perfect sense
Also I wanted to clear up that some people say because Dante does the same animation as his father when he’s in his sin devil trigger that means he’s as strong as his father only for five seconds at a time and I just wanted to clear up that that’s not the case at all
Also feel free to spread this to as many people as you can who are fans of the series you don’t even have to credit me I just want people to be aware because I love this series that much
Also I have a theory since we don’t know that much about the rebellion that Sparda created it for Dante sacrificing what was left of his power and because of that he passed away shortly after but I could be entirely wrong maybe there’s A comic or interview or something about the rebellion I just don’t know about
that pizza picture from 0:56 has olives on it, dante dosent like olives (according to dmc anime)
i wish they make another DMC game showing us the tells of sparda of back when and before he disappear
I like to identify the likes of Dante as a Super-Human, in simple words a Human but with Demon on top. For like I say before deep inside everything is Human.
Any chance you'll tackle dark souls characters?
10:52, Dante and Lady probably aren't dating but I have no doubt in my mind that they hook up from time to time
I appreciate the binge watching man :)
@@ChampionAnalysis Thank you for making such good content. Can't wait to see more of your what if they switched places series. At first I didn't care but you executed it so well I now can't wait for the other parts.
dont know if you already have a project in the work, but how about a current hot topic? Last of Us. there is a lot of uncertainty right now so im not gonna asking you to delve into Last of Us 2, but Elie and Joel in Last of Us 1 could really use a detail analysis
yo i have a question
If Dante can turn in to Sparda's devil trigger with the amulet and the force edge can Nero do it to??
Possibly if Nero possessed Force Edge and The Prefect Amulet. Why would he want to though ? His own Devil Trigger is already the equal of his Father and Uncle. And they were arguably stronger than Sparda.
@@clothar23 i dont know i thought it would be cool to see it in DMC 6 (if it ever comes out)
7:40 on that part I'm at the disagree Nero came into the fight right when Dante and Virgil just got through battling each other Virgil was nowhere near his peak or prime condition mind you he still was sore from when he was fighting Dante yeah he wasn't on Park cuz he just discovered his new powers it was just the fact that he just got through fighting Dante Virgil was still at half strength he knows how easily they swatted him away when they recovered when they left to go to the demon world
Hey, I think you forgot to add this to your DMC playlist.
i am waiting for Lucia video
I believe if Dante and Lady did get into a relationship that it would be like you said not taken seriously but i think thats how it would seem when not behind closed doors. You know like a Lady in the streets but a freak in the bed. Lol, but seriously they could make it work. Like a competitive relationship with a sense of affection and mutual respect.
I don't know if this is true or not, but I heard that human blood strengthens demonic power. And since Nero has more...human in him, he's able to defeat my boy Verg.
this does pose a good question
which game is worse? DMC2? Or Ninja Theory's garbage adaptation?
the only real reason Nero won that fight between him and Virgil Virgil had just got through fighting Dante he wasn't at his best you saw how easily they knocked them down after they recover from the fight at best I say Virgil was only at Half strength
fairly sure dante has betting issues or something like that
vergil he tired
1:01
hi you should read Devil May Cry: The Lightning Thief by Bladewolf101 it's a crossover story fanfic with Percy Jackson (The Book never the movie) it's about Dante's and Artemis son Drake it takes place the same year as Dmc 4
4:10 I think it is more like age wise, right? Dante is 45 years old and Patty is 18. I am 30 and I would feel already uncomfortable to be in a birthday party with teenagers 😄
I don't ship Dante with anybody. In fact, I ship Lady and Trish with eachother. XD
Vergil was fatigued by his fight with Dante and still was able to fight Nero isn’t even close in power
You know maybe there’s another reason he’s so serious or bored during DMC 2. Just like how the player goes to fight the demons are boring and weak that’s how Dante felt when going thru the story. The only time he smiled was when he fought the final boss that was actually a challenge and cool. Makes sense??
Dantes clothes take damage in dmc 3
Personally the whole shipping dante with lady I find weird cause they don't really click cause dante in the anime was in so much debat to her and she would just keep taking his money for personal gain also he had said in the manga (which is cannon) he says that he sees lady and Trish as younger sisters and you can kinda see that in dmc 5
Hello there
dmc2 is out of cannon now so toss it in the same bin as DmC
Nero never becomes stronger than Vergil or Dante even in the end
7:24 however, Vergil was wounded already, so it kinda makes sense, if he was all good... Eh, Nero wouldn't stand a chance
Nero is my favorite character from Devil May Cry so fight me if you think he's lame
11:30 I disagree, I think Dante's VA is already appropriate. It's remorseful and uneasy to hear because it is.
I hate when people try to defend DMC2 and justify how boring Dante is in the game. It's not for any story reason. It's most likely because the original (still unknown) director thought comedic Dante was annoying. He doesn't mention Vergil and for absolutely no reason he flips a coin whenever he has to help someone. Cool concept but what the fuck, he might as well be a different character.
The most damning evidence against this "depressed Dante theory" is at the end of DMC1, after Vergil and Mundus are killed, Dante is just as happy and cheerful as he was when the game started, if not more because Trish is his partner. In fact he seemed more sad about Trish dying than his own brainwashed brother lol.
Well.. It's not the first time he thinks that he killed his brother
I know is late but dont ever say latinx again. Never. Here un southamerica we fucking hate how gringos think how we should be called when we are proudly latinos.
