Did Death Battle get it right or wrong?: Dante vs Bayonetta

This is a blog where I look at episodes in Death Battle, to see if the verdict is correct or not

Background

Dante

Dante,  He is the second son of the demon Sparda(the ruler of Hell) and the human Eva, the younger twin brother of Vergil, and the uncle of Nero. Dante is a paranormal mercenary, private investigator and vigilante Devil Hunter dedicated to exterminating evil demons and other malevolent supernatural forces; a mission he follows in pursuit of those that killed his mother and corrupted his brother.

Bayonetta

She is a coquettish and mysterious Umbra Witch. Considered the black sheep of the Umbra Witches due to her Umbran and Lumen descent, which breaks both respective clans' sacred tenets, she possesses a remarkable talent for Bullet Arts and possessed the Left Eye of Darkness.

 she was sealed away five hundred years ago until she was later found and awakened. Spending twenty years with amnesia, she battles against the angelic hordes of Paradiso and fights to end the malicious plans of the last of the Lumen Sages, Balder.

Months after, Bayonetta, finds her friend and fellow clans member Jeanne taken down to the realm of Inferno after a summon gone wrong. With the help of Rodin, she is not only hounded by angels but even demons and uncovers a deeper plot of a former half of a god conspiring to reclaim his lost power and the truth behind the Witch Hunts.

Quicksilver

style that Dante obtained after absorbing the soul of Geryon the Timesteed. When using this style Dante can send out a dimensional time rift that can slow down the passage of time for all nearby opponents, thereby giving Dante a massive speed advantage.

He can also stop time with Quicksilver as well.

Can bypass the immortalities of Demons which can make connections with their pry, and as long as that prey exists they will come to life should they get killed. This form also allows Dante to Negate regenerative abilities (Up to High-Godly): Can consistently nullify Demon Regeneration, Dante was capable of permanently destroying two heads of the Cerberus. And demons in DMC, are able to regenerate after the complete destruction of their bodies, names and souls.

THE VERDICT

So Dante got a buff after the episode came out, so I'll look at this debate two different ways

 Before DMC5 and POC, Then after DMC5 and POC.

PRE DMC 5 AND POC

To be frank, the stats were sorta even.

It was basically.

Millions C vs Trillions C to  debatably Immeasurable speed, and Low Multi vs Low multi, while  Aesir's statement may seem to be 5D, it says 'surpass' time and space and not transcend. Which would just make Bayonetta immeasurable in speed at best. So strength was around equal, while Bayo debatably blizted. The main thing keeping Dante in the game was his healing factor. Bayonetta didn't have an answer for it and Dante resisted Regen negation before, so it was very unlikely Bayo would find a way around it.

Not to mention Dante's sealing made it a insta win for him. 

So Dante did win back then, just barely, like 5.5/10

POST DMC 5 AND POC

With the new buffs to Dante's speed, he was just as fast as Bayonetta and even faster, since he can boost his speed by ten times.

He now statstomped Bayonetta now too. Souls in DMC are 9D in nature and it's stated to be "higher dimensional".

 Characters in DMC have been shown to destory souls, like the Fallen Priest, someone Dante massively upscaled from.

This means that Dante was multiple infinites above Bayonetta, since it's Low Multi (5D if you want to be generous)  vs 9D.

Bayo's witch time would be countered by Quicksilver and Bangle in time, since those stop time unlike Witch time, which only slows it down. If Bayonetta somehow managed to kill Dante, he'll just revive, since demons always come back as long as their prey exist. Though Bayonetta could negate Immortality type 4 Dante already resist immortality negation and had other immortality types to bring him back, basically countering Bayo's negation. This is assuming Bayo kills Dante even once. His godly regen was something Bayonetta quite literally had no answer for.

"But the G1blog debunked Uni DMC, Bayo one shots!!!"

The G1's "debunk" has been debunked by multiple people. G1 did a horrible job at debunking really anything and cropped images to make it seem like they actually debunked something.

This also doesn't change the fact that Dante scales to 9D anyways.

So in short, Dante won back then and he wins now.

THE WINNER IS DANTE

RATIO SO FAR

RIGHT:12

WRONG:2
