"The world is fully aware of demons." Only since 5. Before then, it was sort of a "If you know, you know." kind of situation. Which is kinda weird since a gigantic tower that went higher than the clouds showed up in the middle of a city and not a single person remembers it.

The progression of Dante from a young adult just trying to find his place in the world to a mature man who's made peace with his life and willing to leave a place for others, paralleled with the progression from cocky hotshot to everyone's favorite fun uncle.

So fun fact with the Devil May Cry series, Nero and Vergil have a second tie beyond the familial one - their voice actors are both Power Rangers. Johnny Yong Bosch (Second Black Ranger Adam Park) voices Nero - not a massive surprise as JYB got big in the anime dubbing industry after Power Rangers, but Vergil has consistantly been voiced by Dan Southworth (Time Force's Quantum Ranger, Eric Myers). What's funny is that Southworth has actually noticed people notice this, and slipped a few Vergil references in when he returned to voice the character in Power Rangers Legacy War.

Reuben also is technically part of this as he does stunt job for Super Sentai, which is where power rangers get their footage from.

@joshrobins130 2 года назад

Reuben's also actually done cameo appearances in Power Rangers (Minor background characters) as well as his work as a Sentai. In-fact, it was BECAUSE Johnny and Daniel were Power Rangers that Reuben requested them. Given DMC 3 onwards utilized some degree of Motion Capture stuntwork. And in Reubens mind, Power Rangers actors were perfect for capturing some of the Larger then life motions of the DMC cast. Which, well, worked to put it bluntly.

@leothewhiteranger 2 года назад

@@joshrobins130 oh absolutely. It just amazes me how deeply it ties in and how well Dan Southworth does as Vergil. JYB is a big anime dub name and often gets compared well to his counterparts, but Southworth is less well known.

@a.z.pantera5577 2 года назад

I'm actually very interested in a alignment video for Nero. He's much more brash and angry than either Vergil or Dante, but has a bit of both of their ideologies. Most notably sharing his father's value of strength. Wanting to, more than anything, protect the people closest to him and defeat evil. This results in a scathing sense of inadequacy, feeling if he fails then he's worthless. Which then explains why Nero takes Dante's "dead weight" line so damn personally. Despite this, Nero has actually had a pretty good life, despite being a part-demon orphan. Growing up with and settling down with his childhood sweetheart, Kyrie, fostering some orphans, and running the mobile branch of Devil May Cry with Nico.

The "brooding, edgy half-demon" trope is kinda tiring, and when I saw Dante in DMC 3, it is SUPER refreshing. Plus I would just be like Dante if I founded out that I too am rom demonic descent. Just flexing my demonhood like it is a WWE champion belt.

@nomadicchaos406 2 года назад

Same here as to me instead of just going full edgelord I would have the following thought about it. "Now just how much wacky bullshit can I do with my powers." Because I would be trying to pull some Toon-Force levels of nonsense with them.

@DkKombo 2 года назад

Well Dante is not just any demon descendent. He's a well written, deeply characterized man expressed through his bloodline, like a gothic hero or villian. He's the son of a dark *knight* who "woke up to justice". He's defined by a thrill of battle specifically in a knightly, almost honorable fashion. "You can't fight with that wound!" "You can stay here and die, or you can walk your ugly ass back through that gate! It's your call pal." It's good to define a character on multiple levels.

@fireyjon 2 года назад

I noticed as you were going through the first game anytime they were going up the tower it was good aligned but when they went down the tower it was evil aligned. I think that may be intentional and kind of awesome.

@SelkieGirl 2 года назад

My head canon for why he's like that in 2 is that the fact that he lost his brother 3 times, two of which he thought he killed him, only caught up with him then. Trust me, there can be a pretty big delay in those kinds of emotions, especially if you're as busy as he was.

@Ghostel3591 2 года назад

It should be also noted that Dante's crusade against demons was started with sole purpose of finding and killing the bastard who killed his Mother - once he kills Mundus and attains his revenge... He runs into "Now what?" situation. With no driving motivation he starts doing his job like going through motions (DMC Anime... Especially credits scene shows how he slowly slips into depression) while realisation he has no more family left seeps in and weighs him down until he hits the bottom during DMC2... And then Nero enters his life. And it brings back purpose into Dante's life with him becoming that funny uncle which Nero never knew he needed in his life.

2's attitude change makes some sense when the anime helps transitions the emotional bridge between 1 and 2

I know that its not exactly stated canon but I honestly think that Dante's interactions with the Demifiend help him chill out as well. It may not be DMC canon, but it sure seems to be SMT Canon. Dante Smacks around Argosax, falls into hell and continues working there, following a job that leads him to meet and possibly join the Demifiend on his quest. With the Demifiend helping send Dante back home leading to reunions and DMC4

@XFG_Official 2 года назад

It's important to mention with the Vergil Alignment, that it's effectively confirmed by Visions of V, that the overwhelming majority, if not all of, Vergil's consciousness went into V when he split himself into two people. I don't know if that is gonna have any effect on whether or not you include Urizen in Vergil's alignment, but it's worth mentioning.

@ninnoofthelastunicorn2693 2 года назад

What I love about Dante is that he IS a brooding edgy half demon. That's what gives him a bit of depth. Dante deals with some real depression and anxiety regarding his past and family. The only time he seems happy is when he's on a job, or with his family. Blood or not

@kereminde 2 года назад

Or guest-starring: "I'll give you ten minutes to decide. Which would you rather wind up in... a coffin or a dumpster?" (Or maybe it's just Reuben.)

@fightingmedialounge519 Год назад

Wouldn't really call brooding just because has personal issues that effect him. Brooding suggest outward representation of those issues.

Thank you so much for this video and the 'probably?' upcoming trilogy of DMC with Vergil and maybe Nero? (I hope there is a Nero video). Anyway. I always wondered if Dante was Neutral Good or Chaotic Good, but with the points you made and showing the alignment, he does sit almost neatly in between the alignments. Definitely my favorite hack n slash video game character of all time.

@Cearns9219 2 года назад

I've always liked Dante. Badass, charming, and always puts a smile on my face. However, while I love Dante as a character, I think Virgil is slightly more interesting. Looking forward to the Virgil video.

@Damandra 2 года назад

Big mistak at the start. In world of DMC is not public knowledge that demons exist. See the reaction of the Swat members of DMC 5, the anime makes it super clear, you even have to tell Dante a password to get him as a devil hunter, the knowledge of Sparta is in the Lybary of Fobitten Book (game guide hidden by DMC1) and a lot of other little things prove it. But how demons are not a public knowledge I don't know.

I actually did enjoy both games but for different reasons. Definitely the gameplay of both was great. Story-wise, I actually had a talk with a friend who never play the original series and he enjoyed the Reboot more because he had no preconceptions. The characters are vastly different in each universe and he enjoyed the more realistic Reboot compared to the over-the-top action of the originals. I own both and if I had to choose, I enjoy DMC5 the best, but the Reboot is still fun. Great video! I love the alignment videos! I just found them and I'm definitely gonna watch more!

@pwndulquiorra 2 года назад

If you like Action games and you're covering DMC anyway, two good characters to try are the other two protagonists of the Character Action Trinity, Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden, and Bayonetta from . Bayonetta I expect will be relatively simple in terms of her moral alignment but Ryu's might be interesting if for no other reason than because Ninja Gaiden 3 exists.

ehhh I'd argue leaving Lady there wasn't as much a chaotic evil move, he *knew* she was a competent fighter and demon hunter just from what little he has seen and believed that she could handle herself there, and whatever is going on in the tower is a far more dangerous and pressing threat. So he decided to waste as little time as possible and go after the danger.

@kristeenlivesay2664 2 года назад

I object to the chaotic evil, for leaving lady and the fight against her. Being an asshole and not going out of your way to help someone does not make you evil it’s just called being an asshole. It’s chaotic neutral at best. He isn’t doing it for malicious reasons he just doesn’t care. Having the option to do a good deed and choosing not to is not evil. It isn’t his responsibility to save everyone.

Between his own power and his semi-canonical (Pixie & Black Frost) familiars he could work as a stand-in for V's gameplay style now that Vergil is restored. (and for those wondering, Pixie often gets thunder spells so she could replace Griffin and Black Frost is made of black snow so he could probably shapeshift like Shadow, can't think of anyone to stand-in for Nightmare but instead I think Demi-Fiend can handle the supers himself)

Dante is, I think, the platonic ideal of a chaotic good character, much in the way someone like Geralt is the ultimate true neutral. Dante never plays by anyone else's rules, ever, and just kinda does his own thing as a wacky woohoo pizza man, but ultimately he is still human, and humans have something demons don't, something he proves throughout the series.

I like the video however overall I think when you look into why he is doing a lot of the stuff that you labled as lawful good its really closer to chaotic good/neutral as most of the time dante does not really want to help but he gets forced into it in some way or the other where he is going in for personal resons not because of some moral code or with the anime inparticular he loses a bet or is in debt to the person giving him the job its not that he is trying to do good but rather that he is geting dragged in
