This scene was so satisfying. If you don't know, this dude was talking the entire episode about how he was gonna kill Dante, and how easy it'd be to defeat him and such, like it was a foregone conclusion that he was going to win. His brother (the one with the black hair) was trying to protect him and they both believed he NEEDED protecting. Watching Dante whoop his punk ass without breaking a sweat was so extremely satisfying to watch. I like how Dante didn't need to rely on his healing factor as well, so they couldn't blame it on his bloodline, he was just a better swordsman.

[@komi-samabeliever7319]

Many people didn't really understand the point of this anime is quite surprising. I agree that the fight scenes is disappointing and could've been better considering its fuckin DMC anime made by madhouse, but this anime I feel ain't focused on Dante's SSS combat style but rather his coping with depression and every day life. Vergil's death, endless too easy boring jobs, deep knee in debts, no goals or aspirations, no family nor loved ones, and constantly getting in trouble thanks to his father legacy is serious problem even for The Legendary Devil Hunter. He ain't feeling stylish *WHEN* he depressed, he just gonna dispatch one lowly demon and get on to another boring demon doing exactly the same as the last time over and over. The anime want to show the lowest point in his life (cold, brooding, merciless, lonely) until the turning point when he meet Nero when he finally realized, he have a second chance for living with purpose and having someone related to protect. I enjoy this anime for what it is, and I hoped that with this little opinion of mine can share a little bit optimistic view that this anime done its job very well.

[@championboy4782]

@@Dragonk116 That bone chilling bloody face of a emotionless murderer he made right after he execute the "bishop" and shortly afterward started to relax and being playful throughout the fight and joking with Nero in the end is a masterpiece of storytelling. It subtle, but it's clear that this encounter with Nero changes him for the better. He finally stop moping for the past and start to looking forward to this random kid who reminded him so much of his late brother and himself somehow. For all shits and giggles they both throws at each other, Nero did save him from himself. And Dante probably realizing this, is why he so adamant about the idea of Nero and Vergil fighting as he didn't want his nephew to went through the suffering he went once.

Raiden would get along well with this guy and Sparda would be proud of his grandson, that I have no doubt. And as for me, he rightfully earned the spot of the main character if Dante & Vergil had enough of it and want some retirement (doubt it happen), or until the devs said so. But we'll see.

if you read the Bible the nephelim were half demon half human. Angels and demons are the same race demons are just fallen from God and embraced evil. Whereas Angels are still loyal to God the reboot got it wrong.

[@HEARTSRULE4EVA]

Quiksilver Doppelganger open to interpretation. Darksiders uses it as a definition of being half Angel and Demon. Also god is never mentioned in DMC's original canon neither are angels. So it's safe to assume only demons and humans exist in their world. In the reboot they tried to include angels and demons. But a lot of people in this comment section don't understand that. Also the Bible isn't the canon for this games story.

[@quiksilverdoppelganger7786]

It doesn't even surprise me that he got owned like that. In DMC1, before dying, Griffon mentions that Dante might have become stronger than Sparda was. This anime takes place after DMC1, so he's even stronger than that. So yeah, there's zero chances an apprentice of Sparda could be in Dante's league if Sparda himself isn't as strong as Dante.

[@rwg6357]

Griffon says that, Then Mundus Mocks the idea when he says Dante can't put up much of fight without being in the demon world or having his father's power. Really it seemed more like Griffon was just giving you worthy praise

[@a.dykeman1980]

Dante isn't confirmed to be stronger than Sparda until DMC2, the final boss of which is a demon lord even stronger than Mundus, whom Sparda couldn't fight and had to seal away, but Dante flat-out kills.

[@rwg6357]

@@a.dykeman1980 Argosax is stated to have been a rival of Mundus but didn't become Emperor untill after Sparda and Mundus big fight. Sparda lost most of his power sealing Mundus and the Underworld away, While the fight with Argosax was revelantly recent if Matier was around to see Sparda do so. if anything it points to Argosax being Weaker

[@Death_13TH]

@@rwg6357 Actually this is a rough synposis of the events surrounding Sparda and his battle with Argosax. Finding conflict in dealing with him, they [the people of vie de marli] called upon Sparda, who emerged and defeated Argosax before he was sealed away by the combined efforts of the swordsman and the protectors with the Arcana relics He could only defeat Argosax, not kill it, Argosax is a demon who subjugated almost all of the demon world according to the DMC history. In his sealed state while trying to regain his former self, he assimilated pieces of the bosses Dante defeated in 2 in order to reform his original body as "The Despair embodied" During the time where he was recovering from being sealed (short as it was) he was weaker than Mundas. However, it is implied that after returning to normal he was stronger. Argosax is noted in the legends of Vie De Marli to be an immortal entity which Sparda needed help in order to seal away, however. That's where it can be inferred that Dante has surpassed the power of Sparda, he didn't need help to seal Argosax, no. He killed Argosax, an entity which should have been immortal was slain. Of course granted, Sparda when he fought Argosax was weaker than when he had fought against Mundas, after all Argosax and Sparda had fought a couple hundred years ago if I'm reading this right, it was some time shortly after when Sparda had sealed Mundas away on Mallet island. So Sparda was not at his full strength, but he was still extremely powerful even by demon standards when he was in this weakened state, so it is possible then that if not surpassed, Dante at the very least is now on par with Sparda.

I mean, if Dante could get stronger since then, then what's to say others couldn't?

one thing that always bothered me about this event was how the guy was fighting dante because he couldn't fight sparda. that's like saying "I can't pick a fight with this wolf, so instead i'll just go up against his son, this dragon." Dante is quite possibly the worst available choice one can make when looking for a candidate to take sparda's place in a sword fight for a variety of reasons, the largest being he's not even remotely similar to sparda, he's stronger and his sarcasm would steal the magic right from the fight. I'm sure sparda would fight with dignity, dante? he'd roflstomp you and mock you while he did it, why? BECAUSE HE'S DANTE!!!

[@enzantakeshita8838]

+TheBrilliantAndAmazingGamer I would suggest Vergil because of how similar his personality is to Sparda (or so we can assume, considering that he's always trying to emulate his father), except Vergil's x1000 more ruthless than Dante and would end any fight instantaneously.. just like he did Beowulf in DMC3.

At least Dante plays with his food before eating... Virgil wouldn't waste a second with this dude, instant kill, like he did with Beowulf in DMC3

[@DkKombo]

I think Dante would've honestly not let him die. He understands the loss of a brother and even showed sympathy for other demons (Griffon, Trish), so I think there at least would've been a segment where he would lax against this guy. Dante's not badass because he absolutely doesn't give a f**ck, he's badass because he's seen some sh*t and deals with it in his own way (usually by being a dork). Most of all, he ALWAYS gives an honorable demon a chance to survive if they take it. Here he's just straight up cruel. Am I missing something because that's pretty much how I've seen him throughout the games...

[@MrManbir101]

DkXboxer I think it's because he is his father's apprentice and Dante doesn't really like his father all too much and this is sorta like proving a point to his father. idk just speculating

[@celix4n]

I couldn't agree more with You, Dante has seen to give even complete dicks a chance at life, hell He did that through most of dmc4 ...altough none of them were smart enough to take it though. This right here, killing a non malicious (if somewhat battle thirsty) demon in front of his pacifist brother was just out of character for him, not to mention that He didn't even offer a chance.

[@shutai-shinnoken4892]

Dont bother, this anime is not canon, he would let both of the brothers live in if it were the canon game.And we would get to play as them.

[@mriddley]

DkXboxer think of it like the fight with his own brother Vergil he didn't really give him a chance either sure he tried to save him in the end but Vergil wouldn't allow it maybe if they could have sat down and talked their would have been no reason for them to fight but people like this have already decided on the path they want to walk in life and they won't stop no matter what Dante most likely saw him as one of these types much like his brother was and realized that no matter what he wouldn't stop so he just went on ahead and gave him what he wanted

[@celix4n]

mriddley Even if that were true Dante would not be cruel enough to kill one brother in front of the other, at least not so calously with licking his lips added to it.

Instead having Super Cool Action Twat go through a vulnerable phase where his supah cooh action powers are unavailable in 5 the story treated its destruction as a minor inconvenience rather than a big problem given how he's up and running around not even minutes after Emo Heart Throb finds him. I'd go on but you shallow fanboys tend to get bent out of shape whenever people have the gall to point out how atrocious the storyline of the franchise has become. I just don't see how a series going from dark and grim to dumb and tone deaf can be seen as an improvement

[@zffrailgun1630]

@@jeremyallen492 *DMC2 Also, the problem is that you clearly have no idea what you're talking about hence why things don't make sense to you. Rebellion served as Dante's manifestation for his powers, but that's all it did. After Dante's awakening, he didn't need the Rebellion to use his abilities anymore, which is why Dante doesn't have any issues after Rebellion breaks, especially considering that he has the fucking Devil Sword Sparda, which you completely dismissed, plus the fact that Rebellion still exists after it is broken, it's just unusable as a sword, but that's still irrelevant. Even if Dante didn't have it, he'd still be perfectly fine. And to prove further that you have no idea what you're saying, the Yamato was also broken, and yet it still works even with some of its shards still missing, which also have power within them. So it's not that we're "shallow fanboys", it's that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, you completely gloss over simple stuff just so you could make an argument for yourself and all in all just want to blindly hate on the game. Get your ass out of this franchise if you don't like it. It's at its peak, clearly indicated by its sales and the fans overwhelmingly love it. The fact that you're the only one that has detected these "issues" most likely means that you are the only one that has them, therefore they aren't issues, and if you're implying that the millions of us that love the franchise and have learned the lore inside out are somehow so fucking stupid for not seeing what your smartass is, then sorry to break it to you, but you're delusional. Now, wanna have another go, smartass, or was that enough to put you to your place?

HighOnCaffeine1101 exactly. At this stage, he was even older than DMC 1 which means he is in his late 30s. Definitely not as old as DMC 2 and 5 which he seems to be around 50-55. Dante was weak in DMC 3 only. But that changed instantly when Vergil slayed him on top of the tower and he turned into a devil.

Dante acts more like Sparda than his usual self in this series.

[@Nothing-of2pm]

Dante isn't always a jokester. Look at dmc3's manga. His life was shit for a while. He's really depressed on the inside for the entire anime, and as well dmc2 and the first bit of dmc4. Even in dmc5. And especially in the manga. Dante is just not truthful with that.

The action is the worst part of the anime, and for a Devil May Cry anime that just misses the entire point to me. With MADHouse behind it it should have been great, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand then Shin Itagaki (the director of Berserk 2016-2017) was brought on as director. The rest is history.

I can feel that. The show wasn't bad, bit everything was just too easy for him. Especially Abagail which was supposed to rival Sparda's power. It was too eSy. I would have loved to see DT. Even if he had just used it to intimidate some humans it would have been awesome

[@Higanbana87]

More than anything I wanna see how Sparda and Eva met, got married, and had the twins. Make 1 season go all the way to where the house was attacked and Dante's and Vergil life changed. Season two should be them growing up leading into DMC 3. Season 3 should be Nero's back story where Vergil met Nero mother and why she gave him up. Nero growing up with his own woes. How he got his devil bring and him learning to use it before DMC 4.

Alucard came first (I think) but Dante was apprantly based on another character from a manga called Cobra. The color red is used because it represents heroes in Japan and I guess the guns might come from Alucard, in the end who cares since they are both badass characters and do well in both franchises. Imagine a game with alucard/Dracula/Vlad Tepes like devil may cry. One can dream...

The best idea is "To make a game called for example DMC The beginning" where we can learn something more about Sparda and Mundus and the relationship between Dante and Vergil's Mother this is my opinion and i even watched the hole Series dante is a bit underpowered in this Series
