Line 4:
** Eva as well. [[Silk Hiding Steel]] or [[Action Mom]]? Dante saying that Trish, who is an [[Action Girl]], lacks her "fire" implies the latter, as does the fact that she was able to keep Mundus from getting her children in the attack that killed her. {{spoiler|Except in the original version, she didn't: Vergil was kidnapped and Dante was killed}}.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: Dante and Trish are going to be in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]''. Dante's first game-trailer appearance? Fighting [[Deadpool]]. FTW, indeed.
** Also, Vergil's been confirmed for the [[Updated Rerelease]], ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3''... Okay well, he's not so much confirmed as he was leaked, THEN''then'' confirmed when [[Word of God]] acknowledged the leak.
* [[Author's Saving Throw]]: Many fans are saying that the ''Devil May Cry'' preboot being an [[Alternate Continuity]] is clearly [http://www.siliconera.com/2011/10/31/dmc-devil-may-cry-takes-place-in-a-parallel-world-with-a-different-dante/ this] due to the [[Internet Backdraft|backdraft]] caused by it.
* [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Awesome Music]]: Love should also be given to the battle music, particularly the two tracks from ''Devil May Cry 3'', "Taste the Blood" and "Divine Hate". "Taste the Blood" crosses over with both [[Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|Crowning Moment of Awesome]] and [[Funny Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Crowning Moment of Funny]] when Dante gets the Nevan weapon—a literal electric guitar—and tests it out by performing the aforementioned song. Complete with sounds of an audience cheering (though no actual audience is seen) and stage pyrotechnics.
** The first track of ''Devil May Cry 3'', [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onwIcZt0-g4 "Dante's Office (7 Hells Battle)"] is the perfect track to get you pumped for a hyperkinetic battle in the Devil May Cry office.
Line 85:
* [[Ruined FOREVER]]: How seemingly 95% of the fandom reacted to the debut trailer of ''DmC''.
** Not even the members of developers' official forums bother defending Dante's redesign in the newest entry of the series.
** It also doesn't help when the higher ups more or less tell the fanbase that their opinions are wrong, and then claim that "Old Dante [https://web.archive.org/web/20111106170448/http://scrawlfx.com/2010/09/ninja-theory-old-dante-isnt-cool-anymore isn't cool anymore]."
** Hell, even the creator of the series, Hideki Kamiya, [https://web.archive.org/web/20111210001833/http://scrawlfx.com/2010/09/devil-may-cry-creator-not-too-fond-of-new-dante does not approve of the redesign].
** The general idea for ''DmC'' seems to make Dante a young jerkwad who's even prouder and more arrogant than he will be as he gets older. This also, apparently, extends to his fashion and hair sense. It's not clear whether this would have a mollifying effect on the complaining fandom.
** And now apparently Dante is [http://www.siliconera.com/2011/08/16/dmc-devil-may-cry-dante-is-half-devil-and-half-angel half demon and half angel] as well as [http://www.siliconera.com/2011/08/22/dmc-devil-may-crys-dante-is-more-of-a-street-brawler more of a street brawler].
Line 105:
* [[Ship-to-Ship Combat]]: Oh man, is there ''ever''. Expect Dante/Trish fans to bash Lady from being too [[Tsundere|tsuntsun]] with Dante (at least in ''Devil May Cry 3''), Dante/Lady fans to be [[Squick]]ed out by the [[Freud Was Right|former]], and ''both'' to utterly derail Dante/Lucia fans mainly because Lucia was in a less popular game. There's also a vocal minority for the [[Cargo Ship]] of Dante/[[Horny Devils|Nevan]]. With the release of ''Devil May Cry 4'', Dante/Nero has seen its fair share of popularity (although it doesn't seem to cause tension with the relatively untouched [[Official Couple|Nero/Kyrie]]). And there's [[Twincest|Dante/Vergil]], perhaps the ''most'' popular pairing in [[Fanfic|Fan Fics]]... ''ever''. Then, there's the faction that believes that Dante, being an [[Action Hero]], [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships|has no canon partner]]. That's not even getting into the even palpable art of [[Crossover Ship]]ping, such as the immensely-popular [[Fan-Preferred Couple|Fan Preferred Couples]] of Dante and his [[Distaff Counterpart]] [[Bayonetta]] or Dante and [[Darkstalkers|Morrigan]]...
* [[So Cool Its Awesome]]: As a credit to the gameplay, let it be known that ''Devil May Cry'', a series of ''single player'' action games, '''''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_DWmuXQ7Qk is tournament worthy.]'''''
* [[Star Trek Movie Curse]]: The odd numbered games are considered classics and the even numbered games and the reboot have had mixed reviews.
* [["Stop Having Fun!" Guys]]: You play on Easy Automatic? [[Leet Lingo|GTFO n00b]]!
* [[Tainted by the Preview]]: "NERO!"
Line 117 ⟶ 118:
** In general, Vergil Mode in ''Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition''. It's a full-on retread of Dante's story, complete with facing a [[Palette Swap|red-clad]] Vergil (dubbed [[Fan Nickname|"Vante"]] by fans). Playing as Vergil is undeniably cool, but it's a crying shame that you only get a glimpse of his side of the tale for all of two cutscenes.
** Not only that, but [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character]] to fight against in Bloody Palace mode. When playing as Nero or Dante in Bloody Palace mode, the final boss... is Dante/[[Palette Swap|Shadow]] [[Mirror Match|Dante]] respectively. You never get to fight an AI controlled Nero as the last boss when playing as Dante.
* [[The Unexpected]]: Few people were expecting Trish to be included on the ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' roster. [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|Not that anyone's complaining...]]
* [[Unnecessary Makeover]]: Lady in ''Devil May Cry 4'', considering she wasn't unattractive to begin with and appealed to a lot of fans in ''Devil May Cry 3''.
* [[What an Idiot!]]: Trish. {{spoiler|Taking a powerful sword capable of subduing the Prince of Darkness and handing it to a [[Corrupt Church]] is NOT a good idea}}.
