Could he beat Superman?

Which is weirdly on point because Superman ran hell at one point.

Yes

Cutscene Dante is impossible to kill and has a giant magic arsenal of demonic weapons

He could easily crush any opponent that relies primarily on physical force. Applied forces too, like lasers/energy weapons would also do nothing to Dante. All his weapons are magical, and he's demonstrated current-Superman levels of strength. He can move at the speed of light and literally just teleport if he doesn't want to do that. He has a healing factor that heals him fast enough to prevent bisection even as the thing bisecting him is still passing through him. Yes, Dante could fuck up Superman and pretty much anyone who doesn't use powers related to psychics or even more powerful magic than he has.

Also he has a sentai watch that enables toonforce tier abilities.

Isn't Superman weak to magic?

No he just doesn't have a great resistance to magic

Reminder that one version of Satan/Hell/etc. =/= all versions of Satan/Hell/etc.

Literally nothing in DMC or Viewtiful Joe contradicts Dante's Viewtiful Joe storyline.

>Please keep in mind that Dante literally sells Pandora's Box tier doomsday weapons on the regular
you mean shitty weapons with no feats that aren't impressive compared to the weapons the justice league has

Probably not. He's pretty tough, but he's not near Superman tough. But, on the other hand, if he doesn't get taken down immediately he might be able to get off some hits, which depending on whether or not demonic power counts as magic may or may not do some damage.

He's not weak to it, he just doesn't have any particular defenses against it like he does against other shit. He's as vulnerable as the average joe.

Nero harvested his edgy chadness and made it his own.

>Dantefags are worse than Naruto fags

Not even close

>no feats
Why are you acting like the games don't happen in the games?

In theory he has the tools, Quicksilver stops time and Yamato magically cuts through anything. But he wouldn't for a lot of reasons. Even ignoring his altruistic nature, he's too much of a showoff to go for the instant-kill sneak attack he would need to use to take down Superman.

>he would need

He has Royal Guard, he could easily just toy with Superman and be in no danger. Dante can teleport too, it's not like Superman is faster than he is.

Yes, but it's like 10 hax abilities.

Why the fuck are you comparing Kiryu to that baby faggot Ozai?

What's stopping him from being cut in half?

Ultra density is Wonderman's thing, if anyone can prevent himself from being cut in half it's him. Yamato could probably do the job though.

Superman isn't faster than him, but he can travel further distances at that speed. Dante's flash step and teleportation have range limits. So if they were both fighting seriously (and assuming Dante wasn't putting anyone else in danger to activate Superman's plot armor), then it would just end up being a stalemate with Superman needing to stay out of Dante's range.

Attached: dante-artfx-statue.jpg (556x600, 48K)

It's all science though, he'd need to be magically tough to stop Dante's weapons. If he could put himself back together after being cut that'd be different, but I don't know if he can or not. That sounds like something "ionic energy" could do, but It's pretty vague.

Superman? Maybe. I'd rather see him against Lobo though.

I dont give a rat's ass about power levels. Only autists care about that kind of thing. I'm more interested in seeing Dante interact with DC characters. If there's any interesting fight potential with Dante, it's with Billy

Probably a better fight, and both sides would actually be willing to fight each other.
How fast is Lobo?

For the last slice of pizza

True, and since his invulnerability is magic the writer can't just ignore it.

Dante was like the most powerful hero in Marvel vs Capcom

Why would he wanna fight him if anything they'd be friends.

I do not have many examples of Yea Forums that are at a convincing level of hand-to-hand fighting, although I suppose The Punisher could still be one.

Interesting. Examples?

Did you mean to say Dante?

Superman is mftl dante is barely ftl

Dante couldn't even save Cerberus from Balrog.
;_;

where does it say that anyway? All it mentions is he used to have Cerberus weapon

Before The Nightmare novel.

The plane is more interesting than people give it credit for, since it can take any shape she wants.
The lasso is also unbreakable, but she'd still have to get it around him. Which, honestly, he probably wouldn't try too hard to avoid because he's into that kind of thing.

Is that what explains that supposed DMC2 retcon? How does that work anyway? Is Lucia still a thing in lore?

Yes, but his reaction time is able to keep up with Superman, and speed gets wonky when you implement teleportation and timestop.

He is invulnerable to magic like Superman is invulnerable to physical attacks. Neither Superman nor Shazam are truly invulnerable. Their claims of invulnerability is just DC using it as an excuse to explain why their clothes arent damaged by superhuman attacks. Superman literally has been beaten death with nothing but pure physical force.

He was cute. I'm sad that he's never, ever coming back (and honestly if they asspull a way to bring him back it will only cheapen the character, like Shadow after SA2).

Vergil in 5 has grown on me but honestly that's really strengthened by how cute V is.

>Is Lucia still a thing in lore?
All the side chicks are still a thing in lore. DMC's like RE. Nobody important ever dies. Capcom actually fucking respects their characters unlike most companies.

Beats me, sorry. You'll have to check in on DMC threads for more specific answers because I've only seen the Cerberus parts.

I do like how Vergil is still a bit of a power autist but has a soft spot for Nero from his time as V. Despite pretending that Nero means nothing to him during the Dante fight he sounds a bit hesitant during the actual fight with Nero

...Hmm, reread the post I replied to.

Highly doubtful. Mundus was basically the Trigon analog of DmCverse. And we all know that Superman will lose to Trigon if they ever fought. Dante already defeated Mundus in the past. Current Dante is significantly more powerful than that. Only character in current DmC that poses a legit threat to Dante atm is Vergil.

He was still plenty autistic but leaving Nero the book sealed the deal that he actually does care for him in some capacity.

Not even the GOAT track:

>speed gets wonky when you implement teleportation and timestop.
Quicksilver slows down time it doesn't stop it and I don't remember Dante being able to teleport

Teleport is a later abillity of Trickster.
Quicksilver slows time in game, but cutscene Dante can use it to bring time to a full stop.

Dante fought a mythical horse that could manipulate time. That has to count for something.

He does have pretty bad reactions though and tends to tank hits in favor of dodging them.

Him quoting William Blake constantly was the best part.

No one in dmc has showed Superman level feats
the best feat a dmc character has is creating a universe of unknown size with nothing in it

Are you seriously claiming that someone that already have superhuman speed along with the ability to slow down time like Zoom wouldn't make Dante just as fast if not faster than Superman? We already seen Zoom solo the entire JLA effortlessly with his time powers.

>He does have pretty bad reactions though and tends to tank hits in favor of dodging them.
He tanks hits he knows he ca take. He dodges just as often as he doesn't.

probably, cause Magic is one of supermans weaknesses

>Her bracelets of submission that deflected Darkseid'senergy attacks and capable of using zues's lighting
>Zeus's lightning
Motherfucker Dante uses a demon god of lightning as a poking stick.
>Her lasso of true which can't be broken snapped of cut which can erase memories and implant commands that must then be obeyed
Doppelganger Style hard counters the shit out of the lasso, to say nothing of Quicksilver which would let him use it on her. Wondy should seriously stop carrying around her greatest weakness.

It's not a matter of who has the bigger number, it's matter of rock paper scissors.

Don't shit on Diana. She's basically DC Dante. Hax abilities, a power ups form, a horde of magical weapons. And has gone toe to toe with nearly everyone in DC and either won or did well. Put some respect on her name my guy!

Cosmic Armor Superman can only destroy evil things. Dante is a good guy, so he's immune.

That's wrong and even if it was true he can still just trap dante forever remove his powers and all sorts of stuff

You people are overthinking this to an absurd degree.

Would Dante beating whomever be stylish? If yes, then he does it. The end.
He runs on style, that's the basis you need to judge this on.

Viewtiful Dante has protagonist powers. Cosmic Armor Superman loses by necessity.

Perfect Guard works on everything and Also Juggernaut mode would be 100% to all of Supes attacks as Dante doesn't even take knockback or damage when using it.

Dante isn't fast enough nor durable enough. He has a chance if he uses quicksilver in the right moment and doesn't goof around. Superman can break hyper time, breaking time stops is not that much of a big deal.

We really need a DMC/Bayonetta crossover. It would be fun as hell.

If you have to ask, then it's too late.

Is so bittersweet some of the characters got their original themes remixed but others didn't like why the hell does King Cerberus has generic dubstep when he should had a remix of suffer, at least one of the fights against vergil should had a remix of Vergil second battle theme from 3 and the proto angelos should had been introduced with a remix of ultraviolet.

He's weak to magic in the same since we're weak to bullets.

Why the fuck would Dante and Superman fight

I want to see them fight demons together now

I would have also accepted Baroque and Beats, which is in of itself an homage to Ultraviolet

I think his sword and bullets count as magic, so it’s definitely possible.

It's as effective against him as it is against a normal person, so it's more like magic just isn't something he's resistant to, unlike most things that aren't kryptonite or lack of sunlight.
A normal fire probably wouldn't hurt him, but a magic fire would cause the same amount of harm to him as it would to a human, magic swords and bullets should be just as effective against him as they are against a human, etc.

Certain heavy attacks only break RG if you time it wrong. It can block anything as far as we know.

Dante was just dicking around with him, though.

He can't fucking stop time. Quicksilver only slows time down and its effect quickly degrades. In the cutscene you can clearly see this.

That's not teleportation. That's just body flicker, a japanese concept of high speed in short burst.

I wonder if V is a shout out to demi-fiend? Both are covered in demonic tatttoos and can summon demons.

My headcanon explanation for this is it's an immunodeficiency issue. We humans lived here on Earth with all kinds of wizards trying to wreck everything every hundred years or so, so we all just developed a natural low-level tolerance to magic. It's not much, but it's enough where a normie can work through an enchantment with just willpower.

Krypton didn't have magic though, so Supes lacks this immunity, and so magic hits him like a truck.

As soon as you realize that Superman can and has moved millions of times faster than a thought can process in a healthy brain without ever getting fucked with by the speedforce or even breaking a sweat, you realize that Superman is literally unstoppable and nothing can beat him.

Dante.

The question is why Superman allows himself to be hit with magic, or anything at all.
Magic especially would take time or effort by design; Superman's so powerful he doesn't really need to take either to get shit done.

Lost to Darkseid and Doomsday, 2 non speedster that are probably even slower than Batman.

He cannot, but Superman wouldn't stand a chance aganist pic related.

>and nothing can beat him
A non-meta guy like Batman did.

And that's the biggest paradox of Superman. His only weakness is the writer's ability to nerf him for drama and convenience.
He's also got instances of poor writing on his own side, like that time he travelled tens of thousands of light years in a couple of minutes like it was no big thing.
And let's not forget that he's capable of lifting objects of infinite weight.
Arguing about who's stronger than Superman is pointless, because Superman's been on every power level at least once as a part of his normal abilities, and will continue to do so.
At his highest seen and canon limits, he's been seen to do things that are on par with a limitless god.
Knowledge of this shit renders any moment of weakness asinine and calls into question why he suddenly has the powers he should always consistently have, but clearly doesn't.

DmC and DMC are different.

Well, can't argue with that. I think Lightening can too since they both are the most powerful from FF.

If superman wanted to kill Batman, Batman would be dead. He could roast the planet from space before Batman would even have the chance to react.
Or just push Earth out of orbit and really fuck shit up.
The "but batman beat him" argument is a testament to Superman holding back and Frank Miller's hatred of Superman, and has never held up beyond that. This is one of the reasons why his fight with Batman in BvS looked and felt retarded.

You always use this stupid bullshit whenever anybody threatens your gay homo fantasy lover. You might as well use supergod or thought machine superman for powerlevel wanking at this point, or better yet just end every superman book with him oneshotting everybody including darkseid and the flash while you're at it.

It's not like Batman wanted him dead either and he still defeated him anyway.

Don't have much knowledge about her. How strong she is? Noct is already pretty op.

The only thing you're suggesting here is how bad you want the batdick.

>better yet just end every superman book with him oneshotting everybody including darkseid and the flash while you're at it.
Why not? He's obviously capable.
Superman is DC's biggest narrative problem. Deal with it.

She wasn't anything special in the first game, but they made her too powerful in the second sequel (I'm still not sure why this game got so many freaking sequels, though).

If we ignore thr sequels, she's not any close to noctis' level.

>I'm still not sure why this game got so many freaking sequels, though
It was that whole Nova Crystallum shit they were doing. My guess is they wanted all of their future FFs to be open for sequels.

I unironically loved FFXV's dungeon design across the board and hope they keep that designer on board.

>they wanted all of their future FFs to be open for sequels
I hope they don't make sequel for FFXV. It has such a great ending and I don't want them to ruin it like they did with FFX.

Nah, they won't. They've already written off two of the three second batch DLCs (except for Ardyn, thank Christ). They're probably planning 16 right now.

Donte could

Dante is what wonderwoman would be if comic books or comic book movies had interesting fights

I sure hope so. With it being such a huge success, I worry that they will be too greedy and I heard that Japanese fans are already asking for a sequel.

Vergil will always be a giant autist desu. at least now he's able to kinda sorta express his love for his family in his own autistic way.

Vergil's a jobber who has to come up with elaborate plans to raise demon towers and trees to actually get stronger.

if the spell is a magic bullet thats strong enough to kill superman then yes but if you just take a normal bullet and make it a magic bullet then it would still bounce off of superman like a normal bullet
