It’s his only style mode. Aka the teleport button.

The fact that he was named like that doesn’t change how out of place it is, particularly with the existence of Dante…I can’t see any way you can spin the symbolism of a dark angel in a way that can fit Vergil better than Dante.

Dark Angel relates to an angel that sorts shit out in a very unangel-y way; the latter applies to Dante, but the former does NOT apply to Vergil.

Vergi saw his mother get killed by demons and went “ef this, I don’t want to be human anymore” and sought ways to make himself stronger while endangering the lives of countless humans in the process…He was never remotely angelic for his path in life to count as descending into darkness. Dante on the other hand went “ef this I don’t want to be a demon anymore” and spent his life violently dispatching demons while still making sure humans, or even demons with a heart, live to see another day.

...Dark Angel and Vergil feels extremely off the mark for me….
