The major reason Dante and Vergil's rivalry works better than almost any other take on the trope is because the games are totally self aware about how dumb and immature the whole trope is and they lean way the hell into it. Like yeah, there's real stakes, turmoil and emotional wounds between them that drive their eternal conflict but at the same time it's pretty obvious that the real reason they fight all the time is because they're both just the biggest goddamn children on the planet.
It really is just playground bickering elevated to apocalyptic proportions by sheer virtue of them both being demigods.
"mirrorshipping", "doppelbanging", pussy ass behavior. look who can't say selfcest
DMCV Dante's hair. It's perfect and I love seeing people draw it because its a neat lil prop to help depict Dante.
It first off gives him a scruffy cool uncle look, which was always Dante's final form.
However, it is also the calculated length to obscure his eyes completely, visually depicting him as closed off or masking his emotions.
AND if you pose Dante at the right angle, with his hair shadowing his eyes and a haunted gaze, you turn Dante into a forlorn wife.
🙏 all very important parts of his character. As an illustration:
[ID: Sketches of DMCV Dante's bust. First has him smiling while sighing. Middle has him staring at the viewer with a sorrowful expression, hair shadowing his eyes. Third has him in shadow, hair hiding his eyes. Above are 2 chibi Dante faces, one with an uwu face and one with shadowed eyes, to exaggerate how Dante's depicted. End ID]
ty for listening. I love this sad clown.
I TRIED LOL RAAAAAAAHGGH
Redrawing that one Shirahama Qifrey piece but with Vash
Also, just saying, if you've only seen trigun stampede (or trigun 98 for that matter) you are DEEPLY missing out on the manga's artstyle. it is pure visual ecstacy. If the words "Biomechanical" and "Angellic" mean anything to you on an aesthetic level, you with be frothing at the mouth at least once every few chapters.
Here's a collection of some of my favourite panels.
Thank you and goodnight
remembered the reason i didnt post my tears for fears shout trigun amv is because the file was too big for tumblr so i compressed her hopefully it's not too rough on her
Real hot girl sh!t
Almost every person I've seen highly praising the new Netflix DMC adaptation has almost always followed by saying, "I've never played the games" or "I've only DMC 5"
And that tells me everything I need to know
oomf wanted me to draw dante
My favorite part of Trigun (1998) was when Wolfwood said "you've already tried love and peace, Vash... now, it's time to Try Gun." I cried.
