* The entire game, [[SoBadItsGood for all the wrong reasons]].
** The Ebony & Ivory handguns are very strong in this game, not only because of their damage output and high stunlock capability per se, but also because they lift lesser demons from the ground and make them float in mid-air even if Dante is just standing still.
** The [[EvilIsHammy scenery-chewing wizardry]] of Arius [[DrunkOnTheDarkSide once he loses his marbles]] and then [[VillainousBreakdown loses the fight]]. Mission 17 of Dante's disc will make you wonder how he could've ''ever'' been considered a legitimate threat.
** Dante's PreAsskickingOneLiner after fighting Arius is both a funny and awesome moment:
--->'''Dante:''' King? ...Yeah, (brandishes handguns) ''here's your crown''. (blasts Arius out the building)
* In his first boss fight, Arius can teleport around his office and sit on a table. Striking him enough while he's sitting knocks him so hard he briefly falls back-first on the floor. During his second boss fight, Arius will repeat this tactic but he sits on the edges of the pillars instead.
* The late-game revelation that Dante's lucky coin is a TwoHeadedCoin all along, which is also heartwarming because he actually intended to help Matier and Lucia from the start until the end instead of relying his decisions on some "heads or tails" luck. Lucia's reaction when she flips the other side of the coin sells it.
-->'''Lucia:''' He tricked me. That macho.
* When advertising the game's re-release on the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch, the marketing team decided to target the only aspect of the game that is adored, let alone liked; [[https://twitter.com/DevilMayCry/status/1171499167648075776 Dante's coat.]]
