My reference to katana was to question authenticity as a reason to decide vergil's outfit.
I was talking about flexibility,comfort and how they should pay less attention to how expensive it looks and more on how comfortable they are for the characters to fight.
If we compare vergil's costume with previous games or even with dante or nero, It looks more comfortable and casual. Even as a combat character. Vergil had some slick moveset in VD which shows his comfort level as a combat character.
Again with authenticity. TBH, Vergil did not break a sweat in DmC except for the final battle with dante. He is a calculative character who measures his odds at a fight and does not blindly rub shoulders unless he is forced to. He was also brains behind bringing mundus down. So we can't judge his outfit based on his combat abilities alone. Even as a combat character, I find his outfit perfectly fine , jus as other characters like dante and nero from previous games.
Well, he did put an end to mundus's dominance on human world. Technically, he never wanted to be ruler of demon world but wanted to establish control on human world. But at the end of vergil's downfall, we do see him establish authority over demons.So yeah, he did control humans and at the end demons as well.But we can't say his outfit is not authentic as a demon emperor cuz he ain't one yet. Technically at the end of vergil's downfall, he had become one.
