Demon Lord Dante[]
Manga[]
Its like a Yugioh card(b4 Yugioh went gay with ARC-V)
In here, thousands of years ago, an evil space alien calling itself God attacked the people of Sodom by using His Psychic powers to kill and revive em over and over again as punishment for them not letting him use their bodies. The people's hatred for God allowed them to absorb the energy and evolve into Demons. Dante tried to fight God with a jet fighter, but it was caught by a Pteranodon, which was caught by a Dinosaur, which was then zapped by God's energy, which fused em together by Dante's hatred. He fought against God but had his body sealed in the Himalayas, and his soul sent into the future to be reborn as a human. Years later, Ryo Utsugi was born and had dreams of demons. on a trip, he gets transported to the Himalayas and is willed to destroy the machines holding Dante's body in stasis. Dante's body eats him and regains its soul, then fights the Japanese military like a Kaiju. He also fights Zenon in a napalm fire who tries to make him give up on defeating God. However Ryo isn't aware of the past of Dante at this time. After a conversation about Ryo being Dante and his heart being Dante's heart he attacks Ryo with his 100 demons. He melts his demon warriors on Ryo to trap him in their goo but somehow Ryo wasn't in the demon goo (despite it forming his exact shape) and he rips Zenon in half from behind. As he was dying Zenon told Ryo about how he wanted God to be defeated and to raise a demon army to beat God as well as saying reference about Maoh Satan, Adam and Eve before dying offscreen. Later Ryo learns about his past from Medusa and decides to fight God to win back da urth. He's last seen on a mountain summoning demons.
Violence Jack[]
Dude I love Berserk!
When Hige Godzilla was possessed by demons, he becomes a leader of a sex cult and also, less importantly, changes his name to Mao Dante. After going around growing his sex cult, he attacks the Catholic Junior High Saint Academy (now called Fort Saint) as revenge for them beating him up after he tried to rape a young girl.
He has psychic powers, and generally only ever uses them to perv on chicks, which is totally bogus. He also has the related but distinct ability to make people horny, and uses it to, you guessed it, perv on chicks.
Eventually, Violence Jack arrives and interrupts a compulsory orgy Dante was hosting, and a fight ensues. Long story short, he makes an enemy of both Jack and Slum King (the latter due to turning Slum King's soldiers into sex slaves, which is only okay when Slum King does it), and ends up getting killed with much prejudice.
Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z Hen[]
Though not directly involved in the story, Mao Dante's form emerges enveloping Mazinger Z whenever it is out of control, emphasizing the metaphor of Mazinger Z becoming a devil when used to destroy because of its power.
Trivia[]
- The character of Devilman was based on the story of Demon Lord Dante, with many shared elements between the two.
- In Violence Jack Hell's Wind, there is a character name Dante whose helmet has a design that looks like this Dante.
So did he draw that or is it official Mao Dante merchandise?
