Devil May Cry Anime show Discussion Thread

Ohhhh wow 😱
finally-after-all-this-time-thank-you-adi-v0-742m934xp32h1.jpeg
 
Finished Season 2 when it came out. It was generally better than Season 1. A lot of the anime has been a good expansion of the parts it covered from the games. Still, issues with 3D CGI in a lot of places and I didn't really like Dante losing to Arius' top goon. Other than that, the fights are mostly good and the characters are more than interesting.

Though, I dislike videos like the one posted above, it sounds like a kid who completely lacks self awareness of the series he supposedly likes. Par for the course of a lot of people I see criticizing the anime. One of this guys criticisms is that he thinks Arius is shoehorned because Banes, the commander of the private army, was calling the shots. Yes, as if the CEO of the parent company is always outside or in-person anytime an order is given by sister companies or sub-divisions. It's just hollow critique.

In any case, back to vs. How quickly can the feats be calculated, profiles updated, and new profiles created? There are definitely great feats in this season of the very visual kind. Particularly of Argosax, Mundus, Sparda, & the bros. Firstly though, I think we need to determine size and weight of Argosax and Mundus. They're big and Argosax made a massive crater when he was shot to the demon world.

Welcome to the wiki/forums I guess. Sorry you like the show but welcome nontheless.

As for profiles and calculations... those depend on who wants to make them. If you have the time then you can start collecting scans and feats to put up a blog with drafts for the profiles then ask calc members to help you out with the calcs if possible.

From what I have seen it would all be around 7B or at least in that ballpark so that's something, still getting stomped by Tony Redgrave tho.

There's really nothing to be sorry about it. It generally has a good story for what it has with and does many things well as an adaption.

For collection scans, I can post more here with citations. For a blog, what do you mean by that? Should I post scans with citations here or somewhere else?

Ideally Dante and Lady's need to be updated since they have new feats though the latter gained fewer feats. We need new profiles for Vergil, Mundus, Argosax, Arius, Sparda, Chi.
 
Argosax being fully resurrected is 7-B, though the fact Mundus had to cheap shot Argosax and kill a weakened version makes me doubt he scales that high.

That was a consequence of Argosax's resurrection process so I think Mundus should still scale since he was fighting an amped version of Argosax via absorbing human souls and stuff.
 
That old man did said that energy exists at the very heart of existence and every other being so it most likely the ethereal aspect.
Thats just more quantum bullshit. Matter particles and schroddinger stuff etc. We literally don't have souls in that show. Not once is it shown. Best is Enzo saying demons sending consciousness to possess like Poltergiests, but thats just statements not feats. Feats opposite of supernatural in every way.
 
Yea, this is wrong. Someone should calc the massive laser that Argosax shoots, that's going to be far higher than building level.
Someone should also calc the double charged shot that Dante and Vergil shoot at Argosax that shoots him from Earth, through the portal, to Makai that makes the big crater when Argosax lands. That should be better than building level too, and both were in base.
Similarly, someone should calc the big ass explosion that mundus shoots at young Vergil that he tanked with scratches.
The big destruction sparda and Mundus do by clashing in castle mundus because castle mundus is more like a hollow hill/mountain. Then the bigger blast of energy that both made again by clashing. Then the fact that both fought across the continents of Makai.
It is also mentioned by lady and nell goldstein that makai metals are tougher than earth metals and that's why they made ebony & ivory from it. Should scale to the regular composition of Makai anyway.

Other notable feats are kid Vergil being repeatedly burned with fire breath with worse than 3rd degree burns and regenerating.
Younger vergil being punched through multiple Makai hills with little damage, then cutting apart one hill.
Some slow mo rocks hopping stuff.
Vergil deflecting machine gun fire from 5 darkcom soldiers at like 10 feet away from himself with one arm.

I said building level for twins, Kings can be 7B-7A whatever it gets. Twins definitely don't scale, Hell Mundus never even scales to full power Argo, But Argo is potential man with absolutely no high end feats for his maximum, he will just upscale from Mundus/Sparda.

idk without any destruction happening a big laser is just a big laser

Not really? The portal opening started sucking people, cars and others into #mAKaI so it could just be some lesser lifting strenght feat rather than AP and the succ/porta/gravity does the rest.

Argosax wasn't being sucked up though, it's clearly far too heavy for such a thing. We also see Dante, Vergil, and the little girl on the roof weren't sucked up either. Then you add the other side of the portal which wasn't sucking up anything.

It's a heat energy blast, Mundus blocks it for a while, but we very clearly see it melt large parts of the ground, and the blast is much taller and wider than Argosax. If anything, I would've liked if the show told us how close they were to western makai. We're explicitly told western makai was 1800 miles away from castle mundus.

They're above building level, I'm not claiming they're as strong as Mundus or Argosax, that's very clear.

that's why I said it could be just lifting strength, the shot pushes argomeh close enough so the succ actually works on him and then gravity does the rest.

as for the inconsistencies idk what to tell you, this shit show of an adaptation is full of those even is the same chapter as it is obvious

idk calc people could know what to do with that, or you

The important part of whowever will be calcing it is that the shot is obviously contributing a huge amount of force here because it is the shot that pushes argosax that high into the sky, into the portal, and argosax is so massively tough that falling down makes a massive crater. That crater in the image I posted above is from Argosax simply landing after the shot.
In any case, can you reframe from all the crying here? Devil May Cry is incredibly inconsistent anyway, in DMC 1 - 3 that is being adapted by this show. I don't know why anyone would try to pretend it isn't because they dislike the show.
 
That was a consequence of Argosax's resurrection process so I think Mundus should still scale since he was fighting an amped version of Argosax via absorbing human souls and stuff.
Vergil was also asked if Mundus could even defeat Argosax and he clearly knows his power given he spent all his life with him and gone up against Argosax to gauge his power

Not to mention he was the only one that could go 1v1 against him evenly
 
It's ironic because if you go by clear on screen feats, the Netflix show has a ton of unambiguous feats here. Given that Sparda essentially closed that massive city sized portal by himself, and we see that in the flashback since he used his sword/amulets, you can scale that to him.

We know that Makai itself is big just for the simple fact that a western portion was 1800 miles away from Mundus' castle. We know it has continents and Sparda and Mundus fought across it.

Another lowkey feat is the end of the last episode. Vergil uses his summon swords or whatever to essentially shoot Dante across the portal from ground level back to Earth with one hand and makes a crater on Earth after he stabbed Dante with Yamato. No portal pulling people through, we see the exact same thing that the makai portal doesn't pull through because in the flashback the arcana were shot through.

We're told that Vergil cutting open portals is a power of his own and he's the only one with the ability to cut between worlds. He uses his portals in the middle of battle too, and seems to have no issue opening portals hundreds of miles apart, we get maps of Earth/US, to confirm his location.
