I would say that DmC does attempt to stand out and try new things different from its original counterpart but at the same time does adhere to some of its traditions.
Plus its not like they got to scrap Kat they could still have her in and have a new female c0-protagonist and still have Kat like DMC4 which includes every other female protagonist except for Lucia. This new chick could play the same role as Vergil in DmC except not as evil so like ally/rival love-hate relationship and Kat can be Kat.
Well for DMC I would nominate white hair for there needs to be a female of the Sparda bloodline whether she be Nero's twin sister, artificially created from Sparda's DNA, a girl who had Sparda's DNA injected into her, or Dante's own kid.
You can say sometime during DMC3 and DMC1 Dante got it on with a human and never called back that can explain why Dante would say "Say hello for my son for me" when he sealed away Mundus.
As for DmC if angel then pink.
