* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UseDERBcNY4 Arkham's "redemption"]] [[DeathEqualsRedemption upon his death]]. For a few seconds, Lady got to believe he wasn't the ManipulativeBastard she thought he was, to then watch him fade (thinking he was just another victim). Words can only faintly describe what she must have been feeling [[YankTheDogsChain when it turned out he was still manipulating her even then]].

* Dante's final words in the game. After a really long, downright ''horrible'' day where his home has been destroyed, he's been battered around, and just had to watch his brother choose suicide over being redeemed, he doesn't even get a break, being attacked as soon as he's out of the tower. His BadassBoast sounds more like he's trying to convince ''himself'' that he's okay and ready to take on the world.

* "Might controls everything. Without strength, you can't protect anything." This line just oozes past guilt from Vergil about not being able to protect someone he loved. The person in question is likely either his and Dante's mother or possibly [[spoiler:his lover/Nero's mother]].

* The sheer fact that [[TheSociopath Arkham never loved Mary.]] All her life, she was merely a SacrificialLamb for her father, existing so that he could use her blood to steal the power of Sparda. It’s implied that Mary loved her father, to the point that she quickly believes him when he claims Vergil manipulated him into killing Kalina Ann, only for it to be [[ManipulativeBastard the last lie in a life time of manipulation.]] Mary’s lifetime. Even when she abandons her past and becomes [[ThatManIsDead Lady,]] her hatred of her father isn’t enough to stop her from weeping after killing him.

The person in question is likely either his and Dante's mother or, if you buy into the semi-confirmation that [[spoiler:Nero is his son, his lover/Nero's mother]].

Added DiffLines:

* The ending. First, there's the part where Vergil tells Dante to return to the human world and takes a very deliberate, implicitly suicidal fall off the edge of the cliffs where they fought. Knowing his REAL fate actually makes it worse in a way. But the icing is when Dante cries for his brother -- and, being Dante, says that it's "[[SandInMyEyes only the rain]]."

* The final battle itself is sad. You're not fighting a gargantuan monster or an abomination out for blood. You're fighting your own brother, blood of your blood, and trying to put some sense into his head. It's not so subtle that neither of the two are too pleased with the situation, but you can feel that Dante's words are full of a "Please don't make me do this" sort of feeling.
