I think I'll never say the name Dante again. /hopes that that's all of them

[dhuaine]

Aww, but it's such a pretty name! x3
Nah, unfortunately there are at least two left. Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Viewtiful Joe versions of Dante. There are also comics and DMC4 novel, but I hear they suck balls and they're not really canon anyway.

[fourier]

It is a pretty name yes X3 It' just hat all these Dantes makes me unsure who I'm reffering to ecah time

(•_•) S-so more or less which one's the most cannon?

[dhuaine]

Oh, you don't really need to worry about it, because first eight Dantes are the same person ^.^ DMC1-4, anime and manga are canon. First novel (DMC1) is non-canon, but most people agree that first half, if moved in timeline to before the manga, makes sense. It's just the ending and Dante's age that had to be retconed.
DMC2 novel Dante is fine as pre-DMC2 Dante.
DMC4 novel is just a novelization of DMC4 game and reads like a bad fanfic.
SMTN Dante, although by different company, is okay as post-DMC2 Dante. There's nothing to contradict him there so far.
Majority of DMC fans won't recognize the last guy if you call him Dante. He's called Donte or DINO ("Dante In Name Only") by the community. xD

The most canon Dantes would be DMC1, DMC3 and DMC4. xD

I don't agree but the chart looks cool :D

and, yes, you have no life XD

[dhuaine]

You don't agree with what?

My level of DMC fangirlism scares even me :D

[lolwutwhatever]

I don't, I mean not with all of this. With most - yes, but there's quite a lot of those that I don't agree with

[dhuaine]

Quite a lot? Wow. I expected about half of stuff for DMC4 Dante, but can't think of many controversial things for others. :p
