Dante (DmC: Devil May Cry)

"Dante: You don't even look over a day over twelve thousand. Succubus: Fuck you! Dante: Fuck you! Succubus: FUCK YOUuuuuu!... (spits)"

- Dante in the reboot before the Succubus boss fight.

Dante is the protagonist of the rebooted portion of the Devil May Cry series. He is a demon-angel hybrid known as a Nephilim, who lives as a demon hunting vigilante. He is counted by the officials of his hometown of Limbo City as a member of an organization of "terrorists," and is being pursued by both national and worldwide authorities. Dante himself is a young and rebellious social punk outcast. He lives and fights in Limbo City, where demons seemingly influence every aspect of the world and the social condition of the humans living there.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) His redesign is awful, instead of the iconic red coat and long white hair, he instead has short black hair with an undercut, and a dark grey coat, making him look an angsty emo 14-year-old.
 * 2) He's been turned into some weird anti-authority punk. Unlike his original counterpart, this Dante is a very foul-mouthed prick who cares too much about himself, constantly brings out his middle finger, and gets angry easily. He's very mean-spirited, rude, and overall lacks charm compared to the original.
 * 3) * Hence the name, this version of Dante feels so removed to the one that fans were familiar over the years, that he seems more like a much edgier version of his nephew Nero than Dante himself.
 * 4) The infamous scene has a white wig fall on top of Dante and his response of "Not in a million years" as if to mock fans of the older games.
 * 5) He admits he enjoyed watching Mundus and Lilith's child's gruesome death which is messed up considering that the child didn't do anything wrong.
 * 6) * Which it doesn't make sense either when Dante was shocked and baffled that Vergil shot them both, so it does not look like he enjoyed watching the death one bit.
 * 7) His Devil Trigger is just a palette swap of his original design (white hair and red coat), rather than the mutated devil of the original games. Which is just lazy.
 * 8) He's a hypocrite as he fights Vergil when he plans to put the world under his protection but when Dante defeats Vergil, he states the world is under HIS protection, which is the same thing Vergil was trying to do anyway.
 * 9) This version of Dante is playable in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale over the original Dante, even though DMC fans never liked him, and the reboot game wasn't even released at the time when All-Stars came out, making his inclusion an advertisement.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Although he lacks the character's personality, he is still almost faithful to the original Dante. Like his weapons and some of his lines.
 * 2) * His sword and guns don't feel any different compared to the original games.
 * 3) * Even with his iconic moves such as the Royal Guard and Trickster not being present, the inclusion of the angel and demon weapons make up for it.
 * 4) * His insult: "YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE!" to Mundus is pretty funny.
 * 5) He still has development at the very least.
 * 6) He can still be stylish at times.
