A series that can summarized with the phrase: "If you want it, then you'll have to take it. But you already knew that." And it took me way too long to realize that the reason why Dante, Vergil, and Nero are so strong being part human is because Red Orbs are condensed human blood which powers up demons. And those three have human blood constantly mingling with their demon blood

I like how Nero reassembling the Yamato was basically just like Vergil summoning the Yamato back then. Stabbed by demon's, nearly dies and saying power. Like father like child.

Something interesting I noticed: At the end of Devil May Cry 3, where Vergil unsheathes his Yamato to fight Mundus, he throws said sheath to the side, traditionally, discarding your sheath was seen as disrespectful towards the katana and it's craftsman and was only ever done if the swordsman doesn't intend on sheathing the sword again (i.e. they expect to die)

Ofcourse, Vergil thinks he would die fighting Mundus. That man only died to one of the most powerful demons. He wasn't as strong as his own father, atleast not yet. So he threw away the sheath, to keep the code intact.

Dante at his core is a kind man, its just that this facade is hard to remove.

Y'know, I love how Nero is less powerful (at the time) than Dante, is missing in arm, doesn't have his demonic arm or the Yamato, sees Dante on the floor obviously being overpowered, and the first thing he says to Urizen is "Hey, Jackass!"

I love how the most replayed in 2:39:02 is the epic reveal of Vergil, I watched it over and over again for a few times before because it's epic af xD

It's poetic that the brother Vergil has been fighting all these years is the one to kill his nightmares. After all Vergil wants love and acceptance and Dante was fully ready to give him that when they met again.

I know some people find weird Vergil's change of heart at the end of DMC V because the game is a bit cryptic about what V really is and does, but seeing all his growth in the manga you can really understand why Vergil changes his outlook in life, he really saw humanity down, but now just like his brother and father sees them as equals and by also accepting that he was in need of not only power, but to rely on others, like his brother and son by also finally putting an end to the trauma of the loss of his mother, yeah it may have taken supplementary media to fully understand everything but I still feel very satisfied with Vergil and his little plot to get a character arc by "doing absolutely nothing".

It really sad to hear Dante's struggles in life. But its also his story is a master piece.

Honestly, Urizen's decision to basically do to Trish and Lady, what Mundas did to him really paints how far he's fallen. Even Sparda, a full-fledged demon was capable of empathy and, being in a similar situation, killing them would've been a more merciful way of getting rid of them, but instead he went with the most heinous way possible. Here's hoping Trish and Lady were just in a coma for most of it

What I find fascinating is how Trish's conversation with V doesn't really indicate her holding much ill-will over this?? Like, Trish tells him off for leaning too much on her superficial appearance for comfort ("I'm not your mommy, V"). But even though she likely connects the dots between Nelo Angelo and him repeating that fate onto her, she doesn't call him out or anything. TBH I can easily headcanon this as a moment where Trish recognized they'd *both* been used and discarded for Mundus' bidding (like a "yeah I get it" kind of understanding).

For anyone who doesn't know. It is speculated that Dante was extremely depressed during the events of the anime and the second game due to him having to beat his brother again and thinking he actually killed him. He blamed himself for letting Vergil go in the events of the third game and had lost his reason to live. He had no family left and he also had taken revenge against the destroyer of his family. This explains why he might have lost a lot of character and his usual cocky attitude in 2 and the anime to a certain extent.

This still remains one of my favorite videos ever! I've watched it over and over again and I'm not even a huge DMC fan. Something about the way you tell the story, how everything is edited, and how indepth it is just makes the video endlessly re-watchable!

Since we don't know how or why Sparda disappeared, I surely hope we get to see him in the next game for the full closure. Maybe Mundus might still be alive and we could finally see them fight against each other, along with both of his sons. How awesome that will be!

Well, Sparda is confirmed dead by both the intro in dmc1 and by his apprentices in the anime. And Mundus is also confirmed dead by both Dante himself in the dmc2 novel and by the narration in Visions of V

Vergil is the best character in the entire series - He is both amazingly written and flawed as a character. All aspects of who he is - From his desire to not only attain power but to protect and be protected. The Dichotomy of his character is one of the best part about the series, painting him as a heartless villain whilst also making him caring and almost protective of his brother in his most dire moments and honestly I wish that Capcom would make a game of him separate to Dante rather than just having him as a reskin. Maybe Devil May Cry 6 we will finally get a story that has both Vergil and Dante as playable characters with their own separate boss fights and separate stories/cutscenes but I guess we will see when that comes in like 5 years xD.

I’d say Dante is the best and most nuanced character. But yeah, Vergil is great too.

I always thought of Vergil’s return in DMC V as a badass scene, but now that I know the full story behind it and how LONG he had been gone before that scene, it just makes me happy to see it

2:27:09 this part is soo touching. 2:38:44 after hearing V's story Vergil appearance and the music hit hard

Really appreciate your effort explaining the whole story of dmc! Keep it up

V's character journey is just so beautiful in its entirety(manga and game combined). I wish the games explored character backstories in the game itself rather than leaving them for later. it would have significantly improved the gameplay experience.

Agreed and most of all its fictional still godlike. I love the dedication that capcom puts into its games to make a journey to remember in time to come.

I love this video man. Probably the greatest explanation of the lore I've ever watched. My favorite franchise of all time

Very well done. There were alot of things others left out and the fact they were touched upon made me respect this video.

I do also feel there is a lot of wasted potential in regards to Trish's character, her story, and characterization. It would have been very interesting to see her come to terms with her new life as a devil hunter on the side of humanity, as opposed to being a servant of Mündus hell - bent on wiping all humans out. There is also the resemblance she shares with Eva. How did she feel about it? Did she ever have a crisis over it? Did she ever feel like she was living in Eva's shadow? How does Danté feel about her? Etc.

Arguably, the DMC series has always had a character writing problem outside of the Sons of Sparda. DMC 3 gave the best side-character writing in Lady (and somewhat in Arkham, but only as far as fake-out final protagonists go) DMC1 gave personality to Dante, but the character writing for everyone else was fairly surface level. Trish is a hook for Dante and a redemption side story, little more. DMC 2 nearly killed fans interest in Dante, and tried to make Lucia cover that fact. DMC 3 is phenomenal for Lady. Multiple cutscenes focused on specifically her interactions. DMC 4 has Trish show again, but she's just sort of there, with little memorable writing to add much to her beyond what we already knew. DMC 5 gives us Niko, and she plays off of all 3 main characters throughout the entire game while Lady and Trish honestly are just... Plot hooks again, conveniently written out at the start and unused for the rest of the game except to tell Nero things that he disagrees with. Meanwhile after DMC 2, Dante, Vergil and eventually Nero are main characters and thus have a lot of screen time allocated to them, which by nature adds to the them being better written than the others. It's a shame, but my hope is that with the announcement that 5 was the end of the SoS story, we'll see more side character love between Nero and the DMC girls (here I am hoping they make Kyrie an interesting character instead of a damsel in distress)

I love that Dante joined his brother Vergil to keep and eye on him and to not lose him again. 😭😭😭

"I'm not letting you die!" -Nero That was the line that got me into the series to begin with. I don't remember how or when I saw that clip, but the second I heard that voice acting I backed out of the video. It was quite a while before I actually picked up the games after that, probably a couple years, but I always kept myself blind to it, knowing I'd get there eventually. And finally, today, I made it. I finally saw that part of DMC 5 for myself, after fighting my way through the series in the last couple weeks. And I'm so glad I did. I don't know what comes next for Devil May Cry, but I do know I'll be there waiting to see it.

I always had a feeling the Dante was holding back when he fought nero in DMC4. because through both fights with dante, he does not even use devil trigger or any of his styles un either fights, only using rebellion along ebony and ivory. Dante even goes on to taunt you mid fight in both boss battles when you stand still.

I grew up playing these games from the moment I could hold a controller and loved everything about them(except 2),the story,gameplay,music and the characters,especially the sons of Sparda,with Vergil becoming my favorite character in pop culture.

It is also a shame that we never got Lady's volume of the DMC 3 manga. We know from Danté's line in 3, "It's been nearly a year since we last met." that the manga takes place around that time frame. And Arkham and Vergil are shown first meeting around that time, too, and Arkham is already shown to have burns on his face, so he's already killed Kalina Ann at that point.

@DanO-ot5wv

It is also highly speculated that Arkham is responsible for the scar on Lady's face. We do see Lady in the manga and she doesn't have any scars. It also makes sense metaphorically; Arkham both physically and psychologically scarred his daughter. It also hints that Lady was there when her mother was killed. This would have made the story with Lady all the more engaging.

This was such a perfect summary of DMC's story. Combining with the mangas and drama audio is pretty amazing.

Dante is a pretty sick name ngl Shoulda called him vergil though

The most remarkable thing about this is that most of the plot is made of constant retcons and taking previously minor details and recontextualizing them into major plot points, yet somehow it adds up to a coherent and well told whole. Also I'm pretty sure that if DMC2 had been made by the original team instead of Capcom handing the project to a different team the story would have gone in a completely different direction. Probably something more akin to Bayonetta.

This was spectacular! Thank you for what you do.

Vergil: “You don’t own an air fryer?!” _fucking kills you_ Lady: “Hey everyone, this guy doesn’t own an air fryer!” Trish: “Bro tf is an air fryer?” Nero: “Clearly you don’t own an air fryer” Dante: _gives you one of his many MANY spare air fryers from his closet_

I like how the usage of Dante's Legendary Dark Knight outfit in 4SE is the go-to Sparda reference. That and it really looks like Sparda after sealing the Demon World. Plus the portraits have different depictions on how he looks like. Thanks for this History Vid bruv. SSS Ranked Vid Edit: There's a small info you missed.

I also like to add this the comparison between Dante and Vergil's SinDT Dante SinDT animation have him floating above the ground and a very wide spreading attacks with monsterous roars, while Vergil SinDt animation is more "grounded" all his movements is still the same like his human form and can use other weapons in this form Yes Dante is expirience with demonic powers but Vergil is more expirience despite that this form is very new to him

that is right, that whole scene of him saying that corny line about filling her dark soul with light was cause her 'death' was almost like he was seeing his mother die for him again, throughout the series we see hints of that pain, when Credo dies you can briefly see Dante making his right hand a fist and the anger and pain on his face cause he knows what it is like losing someone. the rage he shows when he impales Urizen with DSD it is a kind of anguish anger, the anger one has when they do not want to do something like kill someone but has no other choice, lol let just say i know lot about the lore and such of Devil May Cry
