Dante (Devil May Cry)

"Vergil: Don't you dare say it! Dante: Jackpot!" "-Vergil to Dante in Devil May Cry 5" Dante is the main protagonist of the Devil May Cry franchise, and the main playable character for the majority of the games in the series. He is the second son of the demon Sparda and the human Eva, and the younger twin brother of Vergil. Dante is a paranormal mercenary, private investigator and vigilante Devil Hunter dedicated to exterminating evil demons and other malevolent supernatural forces; a mission he follows in pursuit of those that killed his mother and corrupted his brother.

Why He's SSStylish (Pun Intended)

 * 1) He's one of the best video game characters Capcom has introduced.
 * 2) He's an edgy and foul mouthed mercenary, but a fun and entertaining one.
 * 3) Dante has a lot of badass dialog.
 * 4) His designs (range from the first game to the current) are very creative and cool looking.
 * 5) Impressive armory, from the Rebellion, Devil Sword Sparda, Ebony and Ivory, Devil Sword Dante, his motorcycle, and a lot to name a few.
 * 6) * Even his Devil Trigger and Sin Devil Trigger are really powerful.
 * 7) His rivalry with his older twin brother,  Vergil.
 * 8) Despite being a jackass to his nephew Nero, he's still a caring uncle to him. Even if it meant bringing Nero out of the fight from his father.
 * 9) Dante maintains a very strong sense of justice like his father, and prefers to fight fair, thus he never fights humans or opponents that are weaker than him. He can be counted on to do the right thing, even if he makes humorously cynical quips about it the entire time.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) In Devil May Cry 2, Dante's personality was completely changed. Rather than being a cocky rogue, he is gruff and to-the-point, and rarely even speaks. Fortunately, it was later retconned in Devil May Cry 5.
 * 2) His redesign in the reboot caused some backlash from fans.
 * 3) He did call Nero "dead weight". Even though he could have at least used better and more positive words for it.
