let's go all out with this.
nero - short hair
dante- short hair
vergil- nearly there wit the spikyness
lady - short hair
trish - long hair. her background is that she was evil, and tbh. she really isn't that much of a great character storywise after dmc 1, same as lady. her and lady have become less important since their first appearance. whereas dante, nero and vergil have become more important.
lucia was never important. she has long hair, but i don't think many people care about her.
i want a new male protagonist with long dark hair, and i want the, becoming popular. is that too much to ask? i mean, they made nero popular. idk how he become popular, but he did.
