* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Despite what [[Devil May Cry: theThe Animated Series|the anime]] might lead you to think, the games have never had Japanese voice acting.
* [[Dyeing for Your Art]]: [[Reuben Langdon]], Dante's [[Ink Suit Actor]], had [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuq2F66QeP4 his hair dyed for the Japanese commercial of ''3'']. And he looks ALMOST exactly like Dante does in ''3''.
* [[Fan Nickname]]
Line 6:
** Duntee - Dante in ''2''.
** Desperation/Desperate Devil Trigger (abbreviated as DDT) - The Devil Trigger Majin Form, an alternative version of Dante's [[Super Mode]], [[Desperation Attack|only usable when his health is in the red]], where he transforms into a towering behemoth with [[Nigh Invulnerability]] and the ability to mow down ''everything'' (from generic [[Mooks]] to the ''[[Final Boss]]'') with ludicrous ease.
** [[Bleach|Ichigo]] - Nero, because he has the [[Johnny Yong Bosch|same voiceover]], a [[BFS]], and [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|the same attitude as him]].
*** Bankai - Nero's Devil Trigger. Also, the shockwaves he creates can be referred to as Getsuga Tenshou.
*** Orihime - Kyrie, because of her [[Heroes Want Redheads|hair]] and [[Stephanie Sheh|voice actress]], as well as her clothes resembling Orihime's when {{spoiler|she is a hostage of the Arrancars}}.
*** In fact, ''Devil May Cry 4'' is sometimes called ''Bleach May Cry''.
** Captain Awesome - [[Hero Antagonist]] Credo from ''4''.
** [[You Don't Look Like You|Not!Dante, Donte, Don'te]], [[Fun Withwith Acronyms|DINO]] ('''D'''ante '''I'''n '''N'''ame '''O'''nly) Hipster!Dante, [[Author Avatar|Domteem, Tamante]], [[Twilight (Literaturenovel)|Edward Cullen]], [[Scott Pilgrim|Matthew Patel]], Diego - Dante's [[Darker and Edgier|new]] [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks|design]] in ''[[DMC Devil May Cry|DmC: Devil May Cry]]'', the seemingly [[In Name Only]] [[Continuity Reboot]] of the series.
*** Dante May Cry, Dante Made Crappy, Disappoints Many Customers, Dick Move Capcom - The game itself, provided via [[Fun Withwith Acronyms|acronyms]] from the [[Hatedom]].
*** In the same vein, ''DmC'' is also called [[Self-Insert Fic|Tameem May Cry]], as Dante [[Author Avatar|has been redesigned to resemble]] Tameem Antoniades, Ninja Theory's chief designer. This is further twisted into Tameem Will Cry, as fans don't like his smug attitude regarding the changes made for the game, as well as what they perceive as him spiting on the history of the original Dante.
*** Providing further ammunition to those declaring [[In Name Only]] is the fact that this new "Dante" is half angel instead of half human. Yeah.
* [[Flip-Flop of God]]: Ninja Theory's ''DmC: Devil May Cry'' seems to have gone from a prequel, to a [[Continuity Reboot]], to [[Ultimate Universe|an alternate universe]] with each new interview on the matter.
* [[Shout-Out]]: The name of the achievement for defeating Arkham in ''Devil May Cry 3 HD''? [[Batman: Arkham Asylum|Asylum]].
** Many to ''[[The Divine Comedy]]'', especially in the [[Theme Naming]]. <ref>Writer and main character of ''The Divine Comedy''.</ref>, <ref>Dante's guide to Hell and Purgatory. Based on a real Roman poet.</ref>, <ref>Name derived from Beatrice, Dante's lover and guide to Heaven.</ref>, and <ref>Original name, Mary, refers to the Virgin Mary, who is also called "Our Lady" by Catholics.</ref>, for example.
* [[Throw It In]]: The juggling ability was born from [[Ascended Glitch|a glitch]] in ''[[Onimusha]]'', which allowed you to do just that with enemies. It was fixed before release, but it was so [[Crazy Awesome]] that Capcom ''had'' to reuse it somewhere.
