x2 I find it quite strange that there isn't more platonic yandere like Dante because I see the guy becoming this after everything he's been through, especially if it's with his brother (I also see platonic yandere Nero… but for some reason I can't see Vergil as a yandere)
Yes! This man has already lost his mother, his brother (3 fucking times) and countless other friends mentioned only in the novels. Dante is definitely tired of losing and drowning his sorrows with Jack Daniels, pizza and strawberry sundaes don't work like they used to, so now all that's left for him is to kill everyone who tries to interfere with his relationship with the punk (Nero) or with anyone who becomes the target of his obsession.
I have to agree with this. Honestly, Dante, along with Nero, is probably the one who could become a yandere.
Dante lost his family, and in the novels (or was it the manga? Maybe both), many of the people he came to love died.
It wouldn't be surprising if he couldn't allow himself to lose any more, and if he had to kill to do it, he would absolutely do it.
Nero is a curious case because he's definitely very possessive and protective (even more so now that his devil has awakened) of what he considers his, and I'm sure he would be capable of killing to protect those he loves, which would be Kyrie, the children he adopted, Nico, V(?), Dante, Lady, and Trish.
No one can deny that these two would be yanderes considering what they've been through and how they would protect what's left.
…Damn it, how is it possible that Vergil is the sane one? I suppose his lack of social skills and the fact that he doesn't interact with people makes him more or less normal than his brother and son in the aspect of not killing humans unless it's collateral damage.
Actually, I have a very straightforward point of view about Vergil's platonic yandere tendencies. This is without going into too much detail about the demonic instincts and how they affect the relationships of all the Spardas (and also Trish, many forget that she's a demon too, so she probably has those instincts as well).
But I have the idea that Vergil just didn't have enough time to become a yandere with Nero because, honestly, nothing convinces me that this man didn't have very strong yandere tendencies in DMC 3 towards Dante. Like, how can you want to kill my brother? Only I have that right! Only I can stab my little brother and make him awaken his dormant demonic side, nobody else but me!
Even though Vergil had the mindset that Eve had only tried to save Dante and left him behind, this man was more than willing to bring his younger brother to his side! He literally offers Dante a partnership in the DMC 3 manga, if I'm not mistaken! So yes, it just took a little more time for Vergil to become a respectable platonic yandere for Nero, but with the quality time he'll spend with Dante in hell, I wouldn't be surprised if, upon returning to the human world, he's already inclined towards that (with a nice boost from Dante to top it off).
Poor Nero, having to deal with two totally unbalanced twins who are very capable of global destruction 😪 Kyrie should make plenty of food so everyone gets too full to think about murder, since she must have some experience with Nero's impatience and his instincts running high with anyone near her and the children (Nico is pretty much safer in this aspect).
