Imagine you going to a church because your girlfriend will be singing and then your uncle just breaks in and shoots the priest

Vergil: "when did you know Nero was my son?" Dante: "when he stabbed me with my own sword"

DMC3: Boyband Dante DMC4: Uncle Dante DMC5: Norman Reedus

Dante is actually scary as fuck when he's not talking and is serious business. It's the equivalent of fighting Spider-Man, and he's not telling jokes.

My little boy is growing up... He's a deadweight now

Just an uncle spending some quality time with his nephew

6:54 dante imitating nero's ridicilous sword flair is the best part imo.

The fact that this scene implies dante is so accurate with his pistols he can shoot other bullets out of the air is brilliant.

6:43 Best part where Dante pretends to rev his sword like Nero.

Anyone else notice Dante's first goodbye to Nero was also his last? "Adios kid."

Dante: hmm you got a trick up your sleeve Nero: i thought the cat had your toungue Dante: i thought your dad had your arm Nero: what? Dante: what?

3:43 I love that his instinct in this exact moment wasn't to pull out his gun and shoot, given how far away he was, or even to pull out his sword and attack with that, but it was to perform a perfect, both feet DIRECTLY to the face dropkick, like THAT was the first thing that came to mind in that instant, like he has practiced that move to the point of it somehow being instinctive.

Anyone remember how this game was marketed to make Dante seem like he became a villian? Good times

I have a feeling Vergil would be quite proud of Nero knowing his and Dante's first meeting resulted in Dante getting dropkicked to the face and stabbed with the Rebellion. Again.

11:29 i love that dante was beginning to get annoyed by nero's repeated punches to his face but still held back his devil trigger lmao he's a great uncle

The guards: let's wait 12:51 : He's gone, we can show up now

This is basically the equivalent of everyone taking a moment to pray to God, then Jesus falls from the roof and shoots the pope in the face.

I always loved this scene. The son of the demon they worship shoots their leader point blank. Awesome

I just noticed this now. Nero’s Devil bringer is able to tell or identify anyone related to him by glowing upon first meeting. It happened here with Dante before he shot Sanctus. And in Devil May cry 5 it glows once again after Vergil stumbles into his garage.

Nero being bored in church is funnier in hindsight now that we know its his grandfather everyone's praying to amd he doesn't give a shit.

"Guess I'll have to take you down a couple notches." "Whatever you say, kid." *Activates Devil Trigger* "Wait..."

Hey guess who’s the *protagonist* among the crowd of people

I love how Dante knocks aside the human fighters but kills the ones that are demons.

Dante:looks like you're a---- Nero:Demon? Dante:dead weight....

Honestly looking back at this and how they situated everything happening to be after DMC2 and the Animated Series, it makes more sense. You see Dante going through a state of depression in the anime, and a Solemn demeanor in DMC2 and I feel it’s because after losing him in DMC3 and killing Vergil in DMC1 he really did start to feel alone, even with trish, lady, patty and Morrison, he still felt alone. But I really feel like after this moment, when he realizes Nero is related to him somehow, and when he finally realizes it later on, he starts to get his angst back, He finally has a piece of his brother and his family back.

I LOVE the fact that Dante was just toying with Nero the Entire Game, despite how much of a Badass Nero is.

I can't believe how even to this day the graphics of this game are still awesome.This game is so old but yet no matter how much time passes it can be played with no problem.

6:47 I love Dante so much here. He knows full well what he’s doing.

Dante's sword-mockering is pure gold

Transition from DMC4 to DMC5 in a nutshell : Nero has become from "Credo, can I meet your sister?" to "Kyrie calls me daddy now"

The fact that Nero can keep with Dante despite having one of his arms in a cast is really impressive. Also, the fact that his first real encounter with his uncle is drop kicking him in the face is hilarious.

Smokin' Sick Style!!! Smokin' Style!! Smokin'! Atomic! Brutal! Carnage! Deadly??? Nah Dead weight

Just some sparda family bonding time

This whole scene is the embodiment of "nothing is cheesy if you have enough sincerity".

I find it hilarious Dante was trolling this entire game

Have Fun Lookin at the comments Wish Ya all a Good day

Vergil in the underworld : “ that’s my son”

Uncle Dante schooling his edgy Nephew

11:26 Dante trying to pinpoint why Nero's punches feel oddly familiar....

You know you're in the wrong religion when both Jesuses, on two separate occasions, have come through your town to run train on y'all.

6:56 Dante mocked his sword 😂😂😂

It just wouldn't be a real DMC game if Dante doesnt get stabbed by his own sword 😂

1:03 “Our precious savior would shelter us from the storm.” Vergil: “I am the storm that is approachiiiiiiiiinnngggggg!!!”

Dmc 4: "Adios, kid" Dmc 5: "Take care Nero. Adios"

Ahh there it is at 12:30....This is what Dante meant in DMC5 when he said he suspected Nero's biology when he first met him. 'Though i suspect you carry something different from the others'...Meaning Nero carries the blood of Sparda. Guess he pieced together He's Virgils kid afterward. Some nice continuity in the DMC series. Love it.

4:28 Nero bites Dante's gun. LOL

I always loved how Dante shortly phased in and out of devil trigger, deciding wether he should kick his ass or let him win.

I love that for a moment Dante loses control of his devil trigger.

11:38 ah, stabbing Dante through the chest. Like father, like son

You know you can't beat dante even you're the main character XD

Dude this game STILL holds a special place in my heart. It’s the first DMC I ever played! Beat it like 10 times! And I was in the first grade when that happened. I will always love DMC!

My favorite detail in this scene is when Dante stabs Rebellion into the ground and twists his hand, mocking Nero. It's a subtle but cocky little detail perfectly suiting Dante's character. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but in this case it's the sincerest form of disrespect.

Nero's hereditary Vergil - Most of his aesthetics and aspects Dante - His tricks, ego and stunts

0:52 tsundere edgelord actually being adorable

It's pretty cool how that SICK reload Nero does @6:24 is now one of his taunts in Devil May Cry 5. 😎

I love how Dante taunts mid battle even though he's an AI opponent lmfao

So, who decided to come back to DMC 4 due to the announcement of DMC 5.

I just realize that Dante behave like he's dmc2 dante untill Nero fight him

The dmc 4 opening is so fucking absurd like you’re going to church, a bit bored but otherwise alright, and then Jesus jumps through a skylight and shoots the Pope.

Now that you look at it now when Dante sees Kyrie at his feet he probably wasn’t even going to lay a finger on her as he doesn’t hurt innocent people

11:38 "If yamato can separate a man from evil, then how about the Rebellion?"

Dante:”Oh look at this deadweight.” Nero:”...*Devil trigger intensifies*”

Man this scene is still so fricking awesome even after all these years. This whole fight is my favourite sequence in the whole series. So badass

Nero: "I stabbed uncle Dante with his own sword!" Vergil: "That's my boy!"

12:55 nero: nobody cant see it

1:36 Well at least Nero knows the struggle of a church...

I like how Dante's characters grow throughout the games (albeit some is caused by inconsistency of the writers). In DMC 3 (chronogically the first installment) Dante is kinda punkish and not as composed as his older version. In DMC original, he becomes more composed but still funny and playful. In DMC 2, he becomes more stoic. This is due to the writing's consistency but if we look at it deeply, this is the same Dante who killed Nelo Angelo/Vergil in previous installment. Maybe he's still in grief. DMC 4 is sugar Daddy Dante. Obviously he's already more experienced to the point that anything barely flinches him anymore. You could tell he could defeat the entire Order of Sword by himself but chooses to give Nero some spotlight. DMC 5 is peak Dante. He doesn't even think twice to kill Urizen when he eats the Qlipoth fruit, knowing that Urizen is beyond redemption without his human side. It hurts him deeply but he bear it so Nero wouldn't have to kill his father.

MISSION 1: Face off against *the mysterious assassin!* Me: *Do you think I'm an idiot?*

6:49, what's the point of packing a sword like that if you aren't even gonna use it? dante: believe me you wouldn't want that

I've seen this so many times, but I only just now realized dantes action at 6:55 was to make fun of neros "motor" sword lol

Nero: *stabbed dante*, "WHO'S THE DEADWEIGHT NOW?" Dante: *survive * "deadweight"

I like how Dante is all serious and starts getting back to his own self from DMC3 as soon he mets Nero.

i personally prefer the brutal style Nero has. The brute force approach just looks much more devastating. Dont get me wrong Dantes combat is amazing in it´s own right, but the simplicity of stomping your enemy in the concrete and rip them in half is to satisfying

12:09 Nero: *You aren't human are you* Whatever the hell gave you that idea?

6:50 best part I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣

What’s funny is that now watching this scene from years ago, realizing that Nero never stood a chance against his uncle Dante

6:54 I like Dante's little taunt there.

8:33 was always my favorite. “Looks like you too are a-“ as he turns around and neros holding a sword twice his size 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Nero : "you're not human, are you ?" say the dude who can literally push off a giant sword from a statue.

A boy meets his uncle for the first time at church, how wholesome.

gonna admit， one of the best tutorial/intro level in video games!

Nero punching Dante so he launches away, running so fast that he catches up to him midair, then grabbing him and punching his head into the floor is so fucking awesome and the best part is this series does crazy shit like that all the time

I remember playing this game first time after Dmc Devil May Cry. My reaction to game basically saying "So yeah Dante is your tutorial boss, Good luck!" was so funny.

7:29 the fact that the devs thought of that and made an effect to show your bullets are clashing

6:54 wait, I never realized he mocked nero revving his sword LOL

Just noticed, now that the timeline's changed, where DMC2 takes place before 4, I'm starting to notice how his attitude changes over the course of the fight. He goes from the quiet, cold demon hunter from 2, to the slightly jovial, smacktalking demon hunter from 1 and 3 as he starts putting the pieces together, realizing Nero's related to him somehow.

I still remember how epic amd impressive was that fight when I first saw it as a kid, still one of the best fighting scenes ever done.

9:52 Considering how unbalanced the stack of chairs were, I would've died laughing if Nero fell on his ass.

06:22 the coolest revolver reloading in the history of revolver reloading. And yes, I'm thought about Revolver Ocelot before I typed this. :D

dead weight vs uncle

That sword rev mocking was top notch sheeit

Wow going back to watch this after DMCV really puts into perspective how much Nero has matured.

What a way to start a game. This series is just amazing

I honestly can’t think of a better “ *passing of the torch* “ Scenario than this. Especially with how badass Nero is.

One of my favourite scenes from the entire DMC series. Just shows how Nero is as a person

I like this old innocent nero And not the one who is just trying to copy his uncles personality in 5

wait a second I know that voice actor... Ichigo?

I like howl Nero is listening to his own theme

I love how Dante silently taunts Nero by fake revving his Rebellion lmao

2018 and they still cant beat this masterpiece.
