Devil May Cry is an absolutely entertaining series, but there are aspects about it that even dedicated fans think make no sense.

When a series deals with demon hunters and storylines surrounding end-of-the-world scenarios, one would think making sense is the least of anyone’s concerns. Still, Devil May Cry has established its own in-universe súc tích which has been adhered to at enough points to lớn consider it as the basis of understanding what’s going on in the story.

That doesn’t mean the series has actually stuck khổng lồ this logic, as there have been many plot points và instances that have either clashed with the lô ghích or are nonsensical no matter how one looks at them. Due to lớn this, it’s worth checking them out lớn have a renewed perspective of the series.

The ending of Devil May Cry 2 showed Dante getting trapped in the demon world after fighting Argosax, with much of a big deal being made about how he couldn’t come back. However, it turned out that he came back pretty easily by Devil May Cry 4.

A comic preceding Devil May Cry 5 explained how he had simply walked through a fissure of sorts và returned home, something even Dante couldn’t explain. This doesn’t make sense since every trò chơi has shown the villains going through elaborate means to mở cửa the demon world, yet Dante simply stepped out lượt thích it was nothing.

There’s a chance that fans might not have noticed that the characters look different, yet are supposed khổng lồ be the same age. Dante & Vergil are twins, yet Vergil looks lượt thích he’s easily two decades younger than his younger twin. Lady, who has no demon blood or invulnerability, looks younger than Dante at all times.

Nero somehow looks younger than he was in Devil May Cry 4, despite the fact that Devil May Cry 5 is phối five years later. The characters simply don’t match their appearances with their ages.

The sự kiện that shaped the personalities of Dante and Vergil was the death of their mother, who perished while trying khổng lồ save the twins from demons. This has never really made sense, seeing as the two were clearly together until they were teenagers, yet Vergil recalled them being separated as babies.

In fact, Vergil’s main beef with Dante was his belief that his mother chose lớn save Dante rather than him. If that’s the case, then there should have been no way that Dante and Vergil spent their childhood together.

Perhaps the next game will finally answer this question, as it’s hard khổng lồ wrap your head around the idea that Sparda could ever die. After all, he’s been confirmed to have been at least 2000-years-old at one point, meaning he should’ve been immortal.

Despite that, the plot indicates that Sparda died of natural causes và left his wife & two infants unsafe. There hasn’t been anything shown that would explain how someone immortal can die just lượt thích that. Especially someone who’s supposed to be the most powerful being ever lived.

It’s more than likely that Dante and Vergil will be leaving the demon world by Devil May Cry 6. It’s also possible they use the portals, which somehow are so convenient that they drop the person using them exactly where they want lớn be.

Within each game, the characters enter these portals from one location, go deep in the demon world, only lớn escape right back to the city where they started. It would’ve made sense if they came out in an entirely different đô thị or country, yet the portals are so conveniently placed that they arrive in their preferred location.

Chronologically, Devil May Cry 2 is mix after the first and third game. In the preceding two, Dante was known for making wisecracks & carrying a cocky attitude, only to act like a depressive loner in Devil May Cry 2 out of nowhere.

What’s perplexing is how Devil May Cry 4 and Devil May Cry 5 portray Dante back as he was in his younger days, being perhaps even cockier than before. Due to this, it’s anyone’s guess why he was acting lượt thích a man with no will khổng lồ live in the second game.

Those who have played through the insanely difficult missions in the series will agree that it’s a good gesture by the games khổng lồ at least reward players with strong weapons after defeating the bosses. However, these weapons become immaterial by the next game for no reason.

Although Dante và Nero have been shown to lớn prefer these weapons khổng lồ their normal ones within the particular games, they ditch them very easily by the next despite the fact that they would benefit them greatly.

As khổng lồ what a demon-hunting business actually entails is something of a mystery. After all, it doesn’t make sense how people seem to lớn know the required password, despite Dante being shown to be effectively bankrupt and having no customers.

There’s also the very idea that someone would pay for demon-killing services when the bystanders are always shown at their wit’s kết thúc by the very idea of demons. All in all, Dante being in this business and somehow setting it up shouldn’t be possible.

Even stranger than Dante’s change in attitude was Vergil’s, who took a U-turn in characterization within a few minutes. Although his changed attitude made him a celebrated character in the past decade, his turn toward being a good guy was unwarranted.

Vergil wanted to use the Qliphoth against Dante mere moments before being defeated by Nero, yet was happy to undo his own work just because he lost lớn Nero in a fight. Thereafter, he suddenly became a good guy overall, making amends with Dante and even joking about their rivalry.

It’s not been explained just why Nero ever a demon arm to lớn begin with. Dante và Vergil are supposed to be more powerful, yet have no corruption such as what Nero had. It was written in the Order’s notes in Devil May Cry 4 that he developed the arm after being injured as a child, but why that happened doesn’t align with established logic.

The likes of Nero, Dante, and Vergil get impaled by weapons all the time, meaning they shouldn’t be getting injured in the first place. Even if that’s the case, why would one specific injury have caused Nero’s arm to lớn mutate?
