-Wiz For some action heroes, it's not enough to JUST save the world.
-
-Boomstick They've gotta look good doing it!
-
-Wiz Dante, the Devil Hunter.
-
-Boomstick And Bayonetta, the Umbra Witch.
-
He's Wiz, and I'm Boomstick!
-
-Wiz And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win...
-
A Death Battle.
-
-Wiz Take a walk down Slum Avenue, and you'll find all sorts of hangouts for the scum of the Underworld.
-
The Bullseye Bar, a random...strip club, and even a run-down service shop called 'Devil May Cry.'
-
-Boomstick But the services they're selling aren't like washing your car, or fixing your plumbing.
-
HOOH no, s'long as you got the cash, this shop specializes in delivering demonic beatdowns.
-
"Who's CRAZY enough to try making a living this way?" You ask?
-
His name...
-
is Dante.
-
-Wiz From the very beginning, Dante's life was always unusual.
-
Born from the unholy union of a human mother and a demon father,
-
Dante and his twin brother, Vergil, had their first supernatural encounter at the young age of 8.
-
-Boomstick Yeah, see, his demon dad was a badass who single-handedly conquered the Underworld,
-
And imprisoned its demon emperor, Mundus.
-
But after dad died, Mundus' minions felt brave enough to take some revenge, by...slaughtering his family.
-
Leaving Dante an orphan.
-
Bummer. Hate it when that happens.
-
Wiz- With his mother gone, and his brother assumed dead, Dante was left with only one option:
-
Become the ultimate Demon Hunter, and...perpetuate the cycle of vengeance.
-
-Wiz Despite the dangerous nature of his occupation,
-
Dante always maintains a carefree spirit, while dispatching devils of the Underworld.
-
-Boomstick It's part of his charm.
-
Hell, when you've got abilities like Dante's, why NOT be a little cocky?
-
He's faster than the mortal eye can see, strong enough to grapple with the Undeworld's toughest demons,
-
And straight-up MAN enough to shake off being stabbed through the chest, like, every goddamn day!
-
-Wiz That's thanks to his regenerative ability.
-
In fact, ALL of that is made possible due to his demonic heritage,
-
and made even MORE deadly by his plethora of weapons.
-
His favorites being his dual pistols, and enormous sword.
-
-Boomstick Like any proud weapon owner, he gives his tools of destruction pet names.
-
His guns, Ebony and Ivory, specialize in long-range shots and rapid-fire barrages, respectively.
-
These handcannons are SO powerful, they can each obliterate demons in a single shot.
-
-Dante I think that look suits you better.
-
*Cue laugh track*
-
-Boomstick Rebellion is a large, magical sword, given to him by his pops,
-
which can cut any demon down to size in the blink of an eye.
-
He's also got his brother's sword, Yamato, which can cut through DIMENSIONS!
-
-Wiz Throughout his adventures, Dante also collected a wide assortment of additional weaponry called Devil Arms,
-
physical manifestations of powerful demons he has defeated.
-
-Boomstick Remember Megaman? I-it's that. But on steroids!
-
His armor, Gilgamesh Gauntlets, increase his striking power,
-
letting him shatter huge monoliths with a lethal, one-inch punch.
-
-Boomstick With Lucifer - the backpack, not the devil - Dante basically throws infinite lightsabers.
-
He's also got an electric guitar, which is literally electric.
-
Ice-powered nunchucks, grenade launchers, shotguns, and, I kid you not,
-
a briefcase that can transform into 666 different weapons,
-
Ranging from a giant Beyblade, to a flying turret gun.
-
Where does he POSSIBLY keep all this stuff!?
-
-Wiz Really, REALLY deep pockets.
-
Or, perhaps, it's one of his styles, abilities he has also acquired from defeating demon bosses.
-
With Doppelganger Style, he can duplicate himself,
-
with Trickster Style, he can teleport instantly,
-
with Royal Guard Style, he becomes a nigh-impervious dreadnought,
-
AND he can even slow down time with the Quicksilver Style.
-
-Boomstick On the rare occasion Dante feels he needs to get serious, he enters the Devil Trigger,
-
a transformation that taps into his demonic heritage to unleash his true devil form.
-
Devil Trigger dramatically increases his strength, speed, and healing power, AND he can fly!
-
-Wiz Being so well-armed, Dante is more than capable of handling entire hordes of demons on his own,
-
although this doesn't stop some of his allies from joining in from time-to-time.
-
This includes Trish, a demon-lady who occasionally fights alongside him,
-
and happens to resemble his deceased mother....
-
Talk about giving somebody an Oedipus complex.
-
-Boomstick Hey, if I may quote an old family saying,
-
"If she's not directly related, she's safe to be dated."
-
-Wiz That explains a lot...
-
Luckily, and quite surprisingly, that avenue was never explored -- thank god.
-
Boomstick- Dante is a walking, talking, feat-achieving machine.
-
One time, after getting impaled by FOUR demons at once, he pushed one so hard, it exploded,
-
and dropped a ceiling fan on the other three.
-
All while eating a slice of pizza!
-
Oh...and when their friend showed up, he challenged them to a game of billiards.
-
[Asshole, corner pocket.]
-
He won.
-
Dante has run down the side of a building so fast, he caught fire,
-
similar to a spacecraft re-entering the atmosphere at approximately 17,000 MPH.
-
-Boomstick And he's even capable of taking out others just as overpowered as himself. Like his brother, Vergil,
-
who was NOT dead, but...evil.
-
He stopped a colossal punch from THIS titanic monster, without breaking a sweat,
-
shrugged off bombardment by meteors,
-
and eventually avenged his mother by defeating the demon lord, Mundus.
-
In space.
-
-Boomstick You may be asking yourself: "Can ANYTHING stop this guy?!?"
-
Yes.
-
Dante DOES have a limit to how much punishment he can take,
-
but if there's anything that could take him down, it's his own cocky attitude.
-
-Wiz In the words of the ancient Chinese philosopher, Laozi,
-
-Boomstick I'm gonna have to disagree with ol' Laozi here,
-
pretty sure there's no greater danger than telling a woman those pants do, in fact, make her ass look fat.
-
-??? You...BASTAAAAARD!
-
-Dante And, jackpot.
-
-Wiz From the angels of Paradiso, to the demons of Inferno, there is a name feared by both the light and the dark.
-
And her name...
-
[is JOHN CENA!]
-
is Bayonetta.
-
[I like mine better.]
-
-Boomstick To any normal guy walking down the street,
-
she may look like your average 7-ft. tall, GARGANTUAN Amazon-woman with good fashion sense.
-
But Bayonetta is ACTUALLY one of the last Umbra Witches, a clan of mystics allied with demonkind.
-
-Wiz Named Cereza upon birth,
-
she spent her early life growing up an outcast due to her parents being from rival clans.
-
Her father, a Lumin Sage, and her mother, an Umbra Witch.
-
-Boomstick See, the Sages and Witches had one rule to follow:
-
DON'T make babies with the opposite clan, because, according to prophecy,
-
it would bring on the destruction of the universe.
-
So, naturally, it was only a matter of time before SOMEbody couldn't keep it in their pants.
-
Ahh...pullin' out works every time, but the last time.
-
-Wiz You would know...
-
With the pact now broken, war ensued between the two factions. In the end, only two witches survived:
-
Cereza, and her rival/future friend, Jeanne.
-
Hoping to prevent the Apocalypse, Jeanne used a special dagger to seal away Cereza's memories,
-
and put her into a 500-year long coma.
-
-Boomstick When Cereza woke up from her epic power nap, she took on her new name - Bayonetta -
-
and set out to find her lost memories.
-
Luckily for her, she had just the right weapon for the job:
-
her hair!
-
-Wiz As an Umbra Witch, not only does her hair serve as her clothing,
-
-Boomstick Which I'm having a REAAAALLY hard time deciding whether or not that's hot, or..just disgusting.
-
-Wiz she can also use it to summon the demon, Madama Butterfly, to aid her in battle.
-
This technique, the Wicked Weaves,
-
creates portals for the giant demon to deliver devestating punches and kicks.
-
Bayonetta can also walk on walls and ceilings with Witch Walk,
-
and even transform into animals to fly, run super-fast, and dodge attacks.
-
-Wiz But her most useful technique is Witch Time.
-
By slowing down time itself, Bayonetta can dodge..practically anything,
-
while unleashing a barrage of attacks.
-
-Boomstick Bayonetta is basically a tall, sexy armory.
-
She wields gauntlets, called Durga, which attack with fire and electricity,
-
a huge scythe that ROTS the SOULS of its victims,
-
and a friggin' lightsaber called Pillow Talk.
-
She has a bow that fires poison arrows, a chainsaw made of dragon scales,
-
a MASSIVE hammer that can cause earthquakes with every strike,
-
and even ice skates! Which..attack with ice.
-
Obviously.
-
But her most beloved weapons are her 4-pistol set called Love is Blue.
-
Rather than swap between them like a normal person, she somehow manages to wield all of them at once,
-
by using not only her hands, but also her feet.
-
-Boomstick How does THAT work? Does she have, like, some kind of weird...thumbs on her ankles, or something?
-
(That would kinda detract from the hotness factor just a bit-)
-
OH MY GOD.
-
She's covered in hair, and she uses her feet like hands!
-
SHE'S A MONKEY.
-
MONKEY WITCH!
-
-Bayonetta This is awkward.
-
Wiz- I...highly doubt that.
-
She probably just uses some sort of magic.
-
Speaking of magic, when Bayonetta wants to unleash her full potential,
-
she triggers her Umbran Climax.
-
[Boomstick, you perv.]
-
Which increases her strength and lets her summon Madama Butterfly's full, unrestrained power.
-
When fully-unleashed, Madama Butterfly can shatter huge meteors by headbutting them.
-
-Boomstick Ahh...climax.
-
By herself, Bayonetta has pulled off some impressive feats.
-
She's strong enough to kick military jets into the air,
-
headbutt skyscrapers across the city,
-
and even throw satellites, with her legs, in outer space.
-
Oh, by the way, she can survive outer space.
-
-Wiz Using Witch Time, she was able to defeat...THIS thing,
-
in only a matter of real-time seconds.
-
Even without Witch Time, her reaction speed is astronomical.
-
For example:
-
When a Lumin Sage stopped time to position newly-fired bullets about 3 feet behind her,
-
she managed to not only turn and identify the incoming threat, but also dodge ALL 16 of them.
-
-Wiz Considering regular bullets travel around 2,500 feet per second. She must have pulled all that off in less than ONE-THOUSANDTH OF A SECOND!
-
-Boomstick And then there's that one time, when she killed God.
-
You know, by scissoring her hair with Jeanne's,
-
and punching the Creator's SOUL across the entire solar system, into the sun?
-
-Wiz Okay, obviously Bayonetta's feats and abilities are ABSOLUTELY ridiculous!
-
But she IS sometimes rather inconsistent.
-
-Boomstick Despite her reaction time, she's been caught off-guard by enemies,
-
ranging from a half-god called Lobster,
-
or...something like that,
-
and even a plant-monster, that managed to grab her out of the air.
-
-Wiz But, regardless of whatever weaknesses she may have,
-
Bayonetta has achieved more than anyone can possibly imagine, despite being 100% human.
-
-Boomstick Wait, she IS human!?!
-
Dibs.
-
-Bayonetta Alright. Let's dance, baby.
-
-Wiz Alright, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.
-
-Boomstick But first, we made another videogame! And it sure would be swell if you buy it.
-
The nerd is back for an all new adventure.
-
Crush your enemies!
-
Navigate new puzzles!
-
Fucking helicopters!
-
Giant fucking alligators!
-
Fast fucking race cars!
-
FUCKING FLAMING TANUKI BALLS!
-
And lots more shit!

But right now,
-
IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE!
-
-??? Another wandering, lost soul, I see?
-
-Dante Wow.
-
Lost? Nah.
-
I'm looking for something called a 'Left Eye.'
-
Care to give me a hand?
-
Could be fun.
-
-??? Hmph. I see.
-
But if you're looking for the Left Eye, that would either make you an angel...
-
-Bayonetta ...or a demon.
-
-Announcer FIGHT!
-
-Bayonetta Get back!
-
-Bayonetta Take this!
-
-Dante Woah!
-
-Bayonetta Too slow...
-
-Bayonetta Take THIS!
-
Mmm...what a disappointing finish.
-
-Dante That all you got, sister?
-
-Bayonetta Ah! Looks like you're more of a man than I thought.
-
-Dante Come on!
-
-Bayonetta No touching...
-
W-what?!
-
-Dante Haven't used THIS in a while.
-
Still got it!
-
-Dante In the money!
-
Hahahaa!
-
Jackpot!
-
-Bayonetta You're a naughty boy, hitting a girl like that...
-
YOU need to be taught a lesson!
-
-Dante Ohooh! Now THIS is what I'm talkin' about!
-
-Bayonetta If you like that, you're gonna LOVE this...
-
*Nom*
-
-Dante Phwoo! Your breath STINKS!
-
-Bayonetta This is where we part ways, love.
-
-Dante After you.
-
-Trish Dante!
-
-Dante Ah, c'mon, Trish!
-
You missed.
-
-Trish Oh, don't be a baby.
-
Let's finish her off!
-
-Bayonetta Jeanne.
-
-Jeanne Cereza.
-
Having some guy trouble?
-
-Bayonetta Not to worry.
-
I've got this one handled.
-
-Trish Wait.
