Which is a human emotion.
Dante has, and you should too. , In his youth, Dante was very sarcastic and comical.Taunting his brother on top of the tower in DMC3,he says "You've got some fun planned for me RIGHT Vergil?" He became more serious over time, but never completely lost that part of himself.

Dante always aims to be stylish in all actions, and you should be too. , There's nothing wrong with making sure you get some, but don't be a hoarder at the expense of others. , Dante is half Devil from his father Sparda and is capable of extraordinary physical feats, so it wouldn't hurt to learn parkour, royal guard techniques,using Yamato, gunslinging, or sword fighting with Rebellion or Alastor to come closer to his techniques and skills.
He's also displayed well above average intelligence when it comes to fighting anyone, so don't be a careless(or foolish)fighter.
Dante uses Trickster to move at high speeds, so make sure to exercise your legs and learn to replicate his Trickster dash.
Try forward at first, and then learn all four directions.

Aim to understand all uses of a weapon uses rather than just one way of using them. , Dante dresses in outfits that he considers extremely stylish.
He's well known for mainly wearing red, but is frequently seen wearing brown (2,3) and black (1,4) as well.
