The funniest thing about this fight to me, is that Sephiroth's Japanese voice actor, Toshiyuki Morikawa, is also the Japanese voice of Dante. So this was basically Dante vs Vergil again.
Let's not forget Vergil's greatest feat, when Vergil hired Vergil's brother and Vergil's son to defeat Vergil so that Vergil could become Vergil in a game featuring Vergil.
pretty sure that's just for dramatic effect. nothing really stops sephiroth from not breaking the illusion at all and let him get hit by supernova while he still think he's walking around some ruins.
@@almilall I can understand that. Removing a character from a full illusion (especially from seph) is a hard sell. I could equally see an argument that even in an illusion if he’s physically still moving then walking through a portal (a multi dimensional one at that) could remove him from harm. I could be swayed to your side either way. My final question though would be how could in their recent death battle was Cloud able to take super nova to the face and live ( they used this as a feat) and not Vergil.
@@taylorwalker7282 Well, we watched Cloud actually, y'know, endure Sephiroth's supernova in canon. Regardless of how the attack *truly* works, we know Cloud can live through it. We do not have a sure fire way of knowing if Vergil could do the same.
This was before DMC5 though, and honestly I'd love to see it again. With the new level of scaling and ESPECIALLY sin devil trigger and doppelganger, I think Vergil could take it.
But there’s also Sephiroth who has more feats now thanks to Remake. Especially considering the fact that, spoilers for Remake, he’s essentially transcended time in a way, at the very least being aware of other timelines.
@@ang1217sr That doesn't actually tell us very much in regards to any new abilities he can employ during battle, though....but it *does* tell us that even if Vergil is actually stronger in a one on one fight now, it's unlikely that Sephiroth would actually die and remain that way...even if Virgil were to split him off from the planet and fight him in a dimension of his choosing.
The rematch would be sephiroth walking calmly when all of the sudden he hears a muffled music in the distance going " *I am the storm that is approaaaaaaching...* "
Then it transition to Noli manere,manere in memoria Noli manere,manere in memoria Sephiroth Sephiroth Saevem iram,iram et dolorem Saevem iram,iram et dolorem Sephiroth Sephiroth Ferum terribilie terribilie fatum Noli manere,manere in memoria Noli manere,manere in memoria
Sephiroth: You can never defeat me, for I am the One-Winged Angel *Que One-Winged Angel* Vergil: That's a nice theme there Sephiroth, but I am the storm that is approaching! *Que Bury the Light*
@@erronblack8266 thats the final form i was mentioning lmfao if he woulda went into that, then dropped supernova, ggwp he just tanked his own spell and nuked the solar system for fun
Either way I don’t believe Vergil “not cutting the rocket launcher” is an anti-feat. Yamato slices dimensions like butter so cutting a normal rocket launcher should be child’s play. Either he was holding back or that Rocket Launcher was on steroids
@@shinobukoko204 Lady buckles under the weight of his blow. He was definitely trying to kill her. If his sword was sharp enough to cut through that rocket launcher, it should have done so at that point. Not to mention that there is no such thing as "sharp enough to cut through dimensions". That's like having a bullet that can pierce time, or a hammer that can dent emotion. It's a magical property of the sword. There are plenty of instances where Yamato's supposed ability to cut through anything would have DRASTICALLY changed the plot of DMC. The characters don't act like it can cut through anything. The most we see it do is open a portal that allows Vergil to teleport a short distance. In DMC 5, he makes a portal after ripping Nero's arm off. His destination is his old house, but he can only manage to teleport part way there. Vergil has also been trapped in the Demon World (twice now) and Yamato doesn't get him out of either of those instances. The first time, he admits that he is trapped (at the end of DMC3) and the second time, Nero says he won't be able to come back to which neither Dante or Vergil disagree. So yeah, the swords capabilities are heavily exaggerated (on top of being wanked by DMC fans).
@@theodorehunter4765 He was hardly paying any mind at all, why would he want to kill her other than for getting in the way? His attention was fixed on Dante for most of the fight. He didn't even view Lady as an actual threat hence he talks to her so casually without any tone of seriousness; Yamato has also cut through far more durable material, even without it's "dimension-cutting" ability. With Yamato, it's not an ordinary katana, or just a really strong sword unlike bullets and stuff. There's nothing outlandish about it being able to slice through dimensions, it doesn't do so for being sharp. It does that simply because it's a part of its ability as a demonic weapon. Several of its moves cut through time and space, Vergil's Judgement Cut End literally stops time until he sheathes his sword again. I don't actually think his sword can cut through *everything* (Because he can't cut Dante or Nero's swords.) But I do think it's capable of cutting through space-time and dimensions. As for being trapped Demon Realm they had to take out the Qilphoth to prevent it from spreading. I understand your point and all, but Yamato was also used twice to separate the connection from the Mortal and Demon World (Sparda used it to seal himself and his power in the demon world and Dante and Vergil used the sword the sever the Qilphoth roots.) Yamato's ability of cutting everything is exaggerated, but not *over*exaggerated and should definitely be cutting at least dimensions as it's presumed to.
I kind of want a rematch with today's current Vergil. Not because I think the analysis was wrong, just interested if that would make a difference. Plus it'd look awesome with the devil trigger!
@Nefal Kartal If the Remake is anything to go by, Sephiroth would be defeated 3 times by Cloud then. 2 of the same timeline and the 3rd one being a “fresh” Cloud.
Vergil: Stay where you belong. In the memories of humankind. *goes Sin Devil Trigger* Sephiroth: I will never be a memory. *grabs the Smash Ball and becomes Safer Sephiroth* Edit: Yo, this was a joke! Why are people *still* debating Link vs Cloud and Sephiroth vs Vergil in here?!
Vergil, as we know, requires 3 criteria in order to be challenged: 1) Heal your wounds 2) Get Strong 3) Settle the matter Sephiroth had met those criteria.
@@Guccipoooch well does it matter... As long as the song fits to the character it doesn't matter if the song is not for him. Well on the other hand the one winged angel doesn't fits for Vergil and that's too bad.
So, Ever Crisis just gave Young Sephiroth impressive feats to pile on the ones he already has. From just his intro cutscene alone, he took down an entire platoon of armed soldiers in an instant. You don't even see him actually move his arm, he just slices an RPG in mid-flight and took down his enemies before his team even realized what happened, while also slicing their armored vehicles in half within that same window without being near them. And in this time period, he doesn't even have the Masamune and its blade is significantly much shorter in length. His magic is still potent enough to the point where he can also destroy an entire backup squad and their armored vehicles with just a single Firaga spell and raze an entire forest to the ground in the process. And Sephiroth's team? They're all SOLDIER too
Uh that was just a simple fire spell.... If it was firaga there should be two small fireballs orbiting the fireball on sephiroth's hand..... And also young sephiroth shows that octoslash is the og of vergil's ultimate attack judgement cut end
@@ikeillue8385 This fight was (somewhat) close even with them underselling Vergil significantly. Hell, Liam has said that Vergils regeneration is hundreds of times stronger than this video says it is (he used an example where Vergil was completely atomized and still regenerated from his spirit, somehow). So in a rematch where Vergil has DMC5 buffs and scaling, and isn't undersold, he would almost certainly win.
@@redraven123 It really wasn't close though. Not only did they massively undersell Sephiroth's speed, but the difference between Sephiroth (at least supernova level, if not massively higher), and Vergil (continent level, being massively generous), is not a small difference. Frankly, there is nothing in DMC 5 that indicates that the scaling increases anywhere near enough to reach Sephiroth's level of power. Side note, even if we use a no limits fallacy and assumed that Vergil's regeneration was unbeatable, Sephiroth has ways around it, such as break petrifying him, Pale Horse turning him into a frog, possibly heartless angel bringing him as close to within an inch of death, and thats not including the fact that Sephiroth is empowered by lifestream, so he should have access to all the powers of materia beyond the skills I mentioned, so we would have things like stop, death, confuse, ETC.
Fun fact: The Yamato is said not only to be able to open portals between dimensions, but also separate man from devil. Sparda used it to separate the human and demon worlds.
Wrong fact dude...... Yamato can only open portals to hell when the opened portal is on the demons gate, if used to open portals without the demons gate, it just create a gate within point A to point B in the same realm.... To bad yamato's ability to separate human and demon is not effective against sephiroth, since sephiroth is not human demon hybrid but human alien (lovecraftian god) hybrid.....
Crisis Core is amazing and has loads of trivia with the emails you receive. There's also a rather...interesting email Zack gets from a friend that is hilariously brushed under the rug. Would love for it to be elaborated on one of these days. They actually mention said friend in Remake, Kunsel.
@@IdkaskThis IS the Vergil that had yet to be controlled by Mundus, and he LOST here. DMC5 showed that his time in the Demon World & the Qlipoth fruit gave him insane levels of strength, not to forget he still had Beowulf, and his new Force Edge replacement: Mirage Edge, which is literally made from his SOUL. Edit: Nico's report in English says that Mirage Edge is Vergil's soul as a blade, but in Japanese, it just says that Vergil's using magic for it, so I might be wrong, and I might not.
@ oh right Also mirage edge is Vergils soul but if he wants to create more he needs to use magic It’s not really a problem since he has endless demonic energy
The comments back then: “This is just unfair, Vergil is universal or at least a multi solar system buster while Sephiroth only destroyed a good chunk of a solar system. We know that Vergil is universal since Dante beat Mundus, a person who created a universe and is a god and Dante is equal to Vergil therefore Vergil is universal ” Comments now: “hehehe funny memes”
@@-.Outlaw.- confusion magic isn't an attack, its a mental debuff magic. And royal guard can only block/reflect physical magic attacks and physical attacks.
Tbh Vergil can easily win cuz of immeasurable strength and immeasurable speed not to forget about Yamato that can cut anything meaning every attack coming at Vergil will get sliced (demon sword of Dante also had power of sparta which is prob why Vergil couldn’t cut it well he never tried to cut it in first place since Yamato can control what to cut and what not to cut)
@@EliiGamer685 lol dude UMVC3 were literally nerfed (hp) but op skills.... And dude seriously Galactus? Galactus is just a fooder compared to sephiroth.
@@-0SafEr_esPHIRitOs_sancTHus0- what is sephiroth compared to Galactus? Sephiroth's Supernova literally is just a star exploding, and as said in this video, not an actual attack of his, as Sephiroth only teleports you to a place where a star is about to die. That's nothing compared to Galactus who feeds on stuff like dying stars and planets every day
New Sephiroth feats: • Killed Galeem • almost killed Mario Edit: I was just commenting this to hype up his smash reveal, some of y’all take this stuff waaaay too seriously lololol
And Vergil got stronger than Dante who defeated Mundus, the evil three eyed demon king, that final boss in dmc2(lmao he is forgettable), and even Arkham who got the power of sparda from dmc3 at his youngest age, hell Dante even got stronger so he could defeat Vergil's pure devil self yet when Vergil got his human self back again he became stronger Damn I sound like I'm taking things seriously
@@merceralex1935 Woah Woah easy there boi we shouldn’t take these crossover feats seriously Unless you wanna factor in MVC Dante and Vergil so you should just stick to the canon

Worst, he spend his meter on illusions after realizing they were illusions. Its like a Dark Souls boss just going F.U. and just into the last phase immediately or camping the bonfire.
@@justsomedude7900 Yeah isn't that form called safer sephiroth? I'm not exactly too familiar with the one wing form. But still Sephiroth did change into his stronger form first.
Very good fictional comparison, and I'd agree up until this point in both these franchises (OG + AC + CC Sephiroth v DMC3 Vergil). However, I think another rematch would be fun as hell once (and if) we see their final peak forms and powers when both DMC and FF7 series' ends.
Sorry about the incoming rant...... tbh they nerfed vergil way harder than sephiroth in this video, sephiroth somehow has access to all the mako energy from the ff7 finale to do his attacks, but vergil isnt equipped with his melee weapons or his dads 2nd sword but for one or two flashy sequences not taking into account their abilities or powers. PLUS how did vergil not even teleport out of the final attack if his sword is able to cut SPACE AND TIME in the first place
Then they should use a stronger version of Sephiroth, just to be fair. Dissidia Sephiroth's Super Nova is "a blast of such despair that it sends destruction even into other dimensions" as per what it says in the menu description.
Link beats Cloud, Cloud beats Sephiroth, Sephiroth beats Vergil, Vergil is equal to or greater than Dante, Dante beats bayonetta, so Link stomps all of them with bombs and arrows....seems legit lol.
that's not how fights work. in league of legends for example, Teemo beats Garen, but Riven Beats Teemo who loses to Garen. It's all about how the kit and stats match up, not who beat who.
I agree with this but with characters like these, it's pretty linear. It's more or less brute strength and fighting skills, techniques. It's not like Pokemon, Cloud isn't water while Sephiroth is Grass while Link is Electric.
He has a point though. Link only won due to being fan favorite, because everything deathbattle has said up until now says Link would get stomped on. And league of legends fights are a terrible way to measure how a fight would go.
I would so like to see this done with the current up-to-date versions of these Sword Weebs. I personally think they'd have to end in a stalemate of some sort for the sake of either of them not shattering space and time as all the multiverses know it.
@@atetrisplayer5216 you mean the alt Vergil. I'd rather hakumen from blaz blue or ronoroa Zoro from one piece or a powerful swordsman from demon slayer (I can't determine who will be it cause there are too many powerful swordsman in that anime).
I love Vergil but if they did a rematch I think Sephiroth still wins, I may be wrong. I did think Luthor would beat Doom and Iron Fist would beat Po but who knows.
@@ThePresentation010 I mean, technically, the game logic applied here. Supernova is an "HP to 1, slap a bunch of status effects on you" attack in FF7. Sephiroth didn't kill with it, just used it to make Vergil weak enough to kill in one attack . . . just like the Supernova/Shadow Flare combo.)
@@elijahpadilla5083 Which probably explains why Sephiroth in their animation had to finish him off with his sword as the final blow. It was probably well thought out.
@@albertramirez8175 who said weak? That's your assumption. And it wouldn't make sense from the point of view of sephiroth to make them weak at all. Even where decimated by vergil when he went full on. Sephiroth past one point literally just stopped trying to fight him head on and had to pull his strongest card to win by a sneak attack after another sneak attack.
@@thyrussendria8198 Doom guy... Hulk... Guts... Etc... If a calm badass goes mad then it is because he's getting serious though. It makes him even more badass
meh if you played DMC V you know that he has less options now. he has 1 more devil trigger, dopplenganger and just Yamato and for some reason his new SIN DT feels way weaker than Dante's. Is just weird....but whats really troubles me is that Now vergil will have even less options, the result will be the same.
@@raulrojas9253 Not really, They'd give him everything he's had. As they gave Sephiroth his gear from an RPG. And in regards to his Sin Devil Trigger; Vergil has always focused on speed and technique, not power. Waiting for the best moment to strike, Unlike Dante. So his may seem weaker, but it's the same strength as Dante's.
As of DMCV, Vergil scales with Dante (who has surpassed him for years). Saying Vergil loses to Sephiroth at this point would imply Dante loses to Sephiroth, which I sure as hell don't buy.
@@AeroFlash15 I never said Vergil losses to sephi you can find my comments here somewhere defending vergil as hell until we both decided that we can't convince each other xD even though I never thought dante is or was stronger than vergil by any chance at least stronger by will not skill just the plot armor goes with dante on so many levels, when they brought nero to the story they made dante and vergil equals lol
So something funny that I’ve seen brought up If Vergil teleports with Yamato to get away Sephiroth can literally send him straight back and disguise the fact that he was returned to the Supernova with an illusion
Darth Cerebus Virgil: My mom's dead Sephiroth: Mine is an alien that was experimented on and whose DNA was used to create me, did I also mention I took control of her?
So according to the newly released FFVII Rebirth Ultimania, Tetsuya Nomura has stated that the final Sephiroth battles involving Cloud, his party and Zack are all taking place simultaneously across different timelines Sephiroth is a singularity now, along the lines of Solaris from Sonic 06
He doesnt even fight like this in game. The whole concentration meter is meant to keep you from getting hit, by learning your enemy till you know there moves even better then they do. Vergil would have calculated everything sephiroth did.
Yes, but strength doesn't scale in a linear fashion. Sephiroth's strength might be only 3.5 times that of Zack, but he could hit that dragon hundreds of times harder.
At a guess, he's 3.5 times stronger than post Sephiroth-goes-ape Zack. Though honestly, it makes me hope we get to play as Sephiroth in Final Fantasy 7-3.
Yeah, if we compare their damage output, Sephiroth in his human form during the flashback does about 3000-3500 damage I believe, while Cloud/Zack does about 90 I think? So the stat number usage is kinda silly. This would put Sephiroth at closer to 35 times stronger.
scale cloud from vs peak vergil obviously vergil way stronger and they acting like vergil cant teleport or cut a meteor bruh his sword lets him cut anything it literally like bleach kenpachi bankai
@eric23443219091 yea I agree with you my brother but I think they were using there current knowledge of Virgil cause this was 5ish years ago and I don't think dmc 5 had released during that time
@@ericx6969 lol yamato can't even cut lady's bazooka, sanctus crystal core and that nightmare's outer shell lol... And also the meteor is not your ordinary meteor since it twice the size of the moon.... And vergil has no feat of destroying moon or stars lol

If you want to boil this fight down to basest form, we basically have a fight between a crazed all-powerful swordmaster with mommy issues vs. a crazed all-powerful swordmaster with daddy issues. Freud would have a field day with this. :3
Who returned to this after seeing Sephiroth in Smash Bros Ultimate? EDIT: WOAH! 1.7K likes!? I guess that means a good amount of you have returned because of it. Well, let’s enjoy playing as him
As much as I love Devil May Cry and know how busted Vergil is, I knew there's no way he could win. Sephiroth didn't even need to use his strongest attack, though it would have ended the fight in literally two hits. (I'm referring to the one that sets the entire party to 1 HP. If used it would cause the show to be incredibly boring as the fight would end in like... 12 seconds.)
@@TheLostZoro872 lol 9d scans are fake and fabricated lol dmc is just a 4d fodder verse lol meanwhile remake and rebirth are 12d via mtheory and string theory lol
Look i've always known he was fighting with his left but there's no way that's why lol Edit: Hate to be that guy but i looked into it really quickly.. he's just left handed man. For whatever reason in the original FF7 for ps1 he does use his right. However in dissidia, dissidia 012, dissidia NT, advent children, advent children complete, crisis core, the ff7 anime and everything else i could find him in in under 5 min he uses his left but square enix never say why. He does switch a lot in advent children making him ambidextrous i guess
@UCqWWMYYOZk6wlt6E7a2yV4Q i actually agree haha Also something i noticed was those 3 guys in advent children that look like sephiroth (i dont remember the relation) are also all left handed so there's clearly a theme they're pushing
Ffvii rebirth sephiroth is overkill..... Vergil can't inflict damage to sephiroth since in rebirth you have to attack all of his existence beyond worlds at the same time.... Sephiroth can't be beaten alone now since he is a living singularity
I think Vergil might have been able to avoid the supernova using Yamato's dimension cutting capabilities. Not saying he would have won because of it but the battle might have gone longer.
Undoubtedly he could, which is why Sephiroth disguised it using illusions until it was right on top of him. They gave extra time in the animation to explain this, which does sort of counteract the point of him doing it. I'm sure they would've loved to have a longer animation (Sephiroth didn't even get to use his super modes) but didn't have the time or budget to do so.
I'll do this the way DB would. Vergil did see through illusions after Arkom and DMC3. HOWEVER. What happens if you compare Arkom to Sephiroth? I doubt he would compare in power even in his demonic form, when he has Force Edge in hand, and even then he never used illusions in that state. I think this would still be a cool rematch. Sephiroth caught up to Remake. Vergil caught up to DMC5.
My guess is the whole opening rifts with yamato wasn't properly introduced until DMC5, this fight is before that so you could argue that they didn't know he could escape supernova with ease.
Sephiroth: I admit you are better than I am. Vergil: Then why are you smiling? Sephiroth: Because I know something you don't know. Vergil: And what is that? Sephiroth: I am not right-handed.

So, just wanted to add a quick little update here, the Complex Multiversal rating for DMC is about to get removed due to PoC removing all of the lore pages in the new beta (this includes statements like Pluto being able to move fast enough to bypass the time-axis, Pluto’s spear being able to warp time and space, Nightmare being able to lift and destroy the entire structure of the Underworld, and all but the lowest level of demons being able to recover from destruction of their body, souls, even their very concepts), and this will stay unless PoC decides to re-add them in the next one. So that’s fun… looks like people aren’t gonna be able to fall back on the Complex Multi stuff for long.
@@TheLostZoro872jungian archetype scales to nowhere, since it can't be used for powerscaling lol... Jungian archetype is a study of human personality and emotions...

Bo5SxBrennan No, Vergil isn't one for poetic speech. Sure he'll monologue about how he wants more power, but it's never so eloquent. He would've probably said something very arrogant like "Impossible" or something like that.
Aaron Nell Millado Poetic? He was speaking about _literally_ being free. He just used Yamato to escape an alternate dimension where he was being cooked alive.
@String Shepherd IDK the death battle states that the illusion makes people go mad but Vergil wasn’t affected and just cut it using Yamato but take what you will from it
Just because he survived doesnt mean he wasnt affected by it. In fact he really fucked with him. Just the wording of it. He "survived" thats not the kind of word you would use for walking away unharmed

Here is the thing deathbattle would only do a rematch if the outcome would be different and in devil may cry 5 Vergil doesn’t haven any feats and nether does Dante. Honestly I’m surprised in devils may cry 5 they never should what Dante our Vergil could really do. I will say this though they did get the winner of this match wrong simply because Vergil is so much faster than him that seph would literally have no chance to defend himself.
@Robert Rainford Speed-wise, both Sephiroth and DMC5 Vergil actually have similar speeds (around 20,000x Faster Than Light, scaling to Bahamut Fury and Mundus respectively crossing solar systems), however DMC 5 Vergil is just so much stronger than Sephiroth that he’d stomp. Meanwhile Pre-DMC 5 Vergil doesn’t scale to MFTL speeds and was far weaker than his DMC 5 self, so this Death Battle was when it came out accurate
Ur take on zack is actually not accurate. Zack has NO Jenova cells at all. Zack is a human who was injected with mako to enhance his abilities and grant him a better affinity to using materia. Zack is a full human with only mako infusion. The only unhuman thing about him is his small amount of Cetra in his blood. In Crisis Core, the only three to have jenova cells are Sephiroth, Angeal, and Genesis. The only three to experience degredation. Zack however never degraded, never suffered from any genetic disposition because he was born human and enfused with mako when joining SOLDIER. Degredation was a failure in genetic code from the destructive force of being given Jenova cells before birth. However, of the three, Sephiroth never suffered the same amount of degredation because unlike the small amount of jenova cells that was exposed to Angeal and Genisis, he was given so much jenova cells that even whrn the cells degraded, it was replaced with jenova cells, essentially healing him. The calamity (Jenova) was the biggest source of his power. Zack was powerful as a SOLDIER, but nothing compared to Sephiroth. Around 3/4 of the game CRISIS CORE, Zack struggled to become First Class, even being unmatched to Angeal and Genesis. Until very late game. By that time, the jenova cells had degraded and messed up genisis so much, it pracfically weakened him. Ultimately, Zack falls to Shinra Troops on his way to return to Shinra. By this time, hed already been first class for a while tho. Im happy tht u pronounced Mako properly tho. Usually ppl say mako like "may-co" and its awful. Id say everything was pretty correct but u mixed up a few things about zack. Sorry. Im a FF7 fanatic😅
The funniest thing about this fight to me, is that Sephiroth's Japanese voice actor, Toshiyuki Morikawa, is also the Japanese voice of Dante. So this was basically Dante vs Vergil again.
LOL.
Dante cosplayed as sephiroth just to fight him in a death battle
and Dante won again
No wonder vergil lost

But there’s also Sephiroth who has more feats now thanks to Remake.
Especially considering the fact that, spoilers for Remake, he’s essentially transcended time in a way, at the very least being aware of other timelines.
@@ang1217sr That doesn't actually tell us very much in regards to any new abilities he can employ during battle, though....but it *does* tell us that even if Vergil is actually stronger in a one on one fight now, it's unlikely that Sephiroth would actually die and remain that way...even if Virgil were to split him off from the planet and fight him in a dimension of his choosing.
How do we tell em.
Bury the light didn't exist when this was made
I agree with the outcome, but one thing doesn’t seem right:
The act like they don’t know each other when they clearly go to the same hair salon
damn that's funny. yeah, if only they shared the same universe.
They probably got the stylist to come to them instead

Inaccurate, Vergil didn't spam judgement cut 40 times over.
also didnt say jackpot once. video is litteraly unwatchable
Sephiroth didn’t spam supernova either. It seems Both combatants aren’t fighting like they should
Just you wait until sephy spams supernova
Hey wait your right
Because if they can spam it in games, they become too op, in games are other rules than in a death battle

Y’all did NOT just call the Kalina Ann a “common rocket launcher”.
Compared to Devil Arms, yeah. It's just an overbuilt, man-made rocket launcher.
Either way I don’t believe Vergil “not cutting the rocket launcher” is an anti-feat. Yamato slices dimensions like butter so cutting a normal rocket launcher should be child’s play. Either he was holding back or that Rocket Launcher was on steroids
@@shinobukoko204 Lady buckles under the weight of his blow. He was definitely trying to kill her. If his sword was sharp enough to cut through that rocket launcher, it should have done so at that point.
Not to mention that there is no such thing as "sharp enough to cut through dimensions". That's like having a bullet that can pierce time, or a hammer that can dent emotion. It's a magical property of the sword.
There are plenty of instances where Yamato's supposed ability to cut through anything would have DRASTICALLY changed the plot of DMC. The characters don't act like it can cut through anything.
The most we see it do is open a portal that allows Vergil to teleport a short distance.
In DMC 5, he makes a portal after ripping Nero's arm off. His destination is his old house, but he can only manage to teleport part way there.
Vergil has also been trapped in the Demon World (twice now) and Yamato doesn't get him out of either of those instances. The first time, he admits that he is trapped (at the end of DMC3) and the second time, Nero says he won't be able to come back to which neither Dante or Vergil disagree.
So yeah, the swords capabilities are heavily exaggerated (on top of being wanked by DMC fans).
@@theodorehunter4765 He was hardly paying any mind at all, why would he want to kill her other than for getting in the way? His attention was fixed on Dante for most of the fight. He didn't even view Lady as an actual threat hence he talks to her so casually without any tone of seriousness; Yamato has also cut through far more durable material, even without it's "dimension-cutting" ability.
With Yamato, it's not an ordinary katana, or just a really strong sword unlike bullets and stuff. There's nothing outlandish about it being able to slice through dimensions, it doesn't do so for being sharp. It does that simply because it's a part of its ability as a demonic weapon. Several of its moves cut through time and space, Vergil's Judgement Cut End literally stops time until he sheathes his sword again.
I don't actually think his sword can cut through *everything* (Because he can't cut Dante or Nero's swords.) But I do think it's capable of cutting through space-time and dimensions.
As for being trapped Demon Realm they had to take out the Qilphoth to prevent it from spreading. I understand your point and all, but Yamato was also used twice to separate the connection from the Mortal and Demon World (Sparda used it to seal himself and his power in the demon world and Dante and Vergil used the sword the sever the Qilphoth roots.)
Yamato's ability of cutting everything is exaggerated, but not *over*exaggerated and should definitely be cutting at least dimensions as it's presumed to.
Poiuhmko.

2) Get Strong
3) Settle the matter

So, Ever Crisis just gave Young Sephiroth impressive feats to pile on the ones he already has. From just his intro cutscene alone, he took down an entire platoon of armed soldiers in an instant. You don't even see him actually move his arm, he just slices an RPG in mid-flight and took down his enemies before his team even realized what happened, while also slicing their armored vehicles in half within that same window without being near them. And in this time period, he doesn't even have the Masamune and its blade is significantly much shorter in length.
His magic is still potent enough to the point where he can also destroy an entire backup squad and their armored vehicles with just a single Firaga spell and raze an entire forest to the ground in the process.
And Sephiroth's team? They're all SOLDIER too
Yeah young sephiroth is a beast. They really meant it when they said sephiroth holds back with cloud.
Uh that was just a simple fire spell.... If it was firaga there should be two small fireballs orbiting the fireball on sephiroth's hand..... And also young sephiroth shows that octoslash is the og of vergil's ultimate attack judgement cut end
It's a shame that this was done before Vergil got his Sin Devil Trigger form. I feel like that would've given him a big edge.
It would have given him better odds, yes, but its not nearly enough of a difference to change the fight.
@@ikeillue8385 dude are you really in every comment section like this, just to jack sephiroth off?
I think we need a new and more updated fight cuz of uh.... you know, doppelganger and some more things.
@@ikeillue8385 This fight was (somewhat) close even with them underselling Vergil significantly. Hell, Liam has said that Vergils regeneration is hundreds of times stronger than this video says it is (he used an example where Vergil was completely atomized and still regenerated from his spirit, somehow). So in a rematch where Vergil has DMC5 buffs and scaling, and isn't undersold, he would almost certainly win.
@@redraven123 It really wasn't close though. Not only did they massively undersell Sephiroth's speed, but the difference between Sephiroth (at least supernova level, if not massively higher), and Vergil (continent level, being massively generous), is not a small difference. Frankly, there is nothing in DMC 5 that indicates that the scaling increases anywhere near enough to reach Sephiroth's level of power.
Side note, even if we use a no limits fallacy and assumed that Vergil's regeneration was unbeatable, Sephiroth has ways around it, such as break petrifying him, Pale Horse turning him into a frog, possibly heartless angel bringing him as close to within an inch of death, and thats not including the fact that Sephiroth is empowered by lifestream, so he should have access to all the powers of materia beyond the skills I mentioned, so we would have things like stop, death, confuse, ETC.
Fun fact: The Yamato is said not only to be able to open portals between dimensions, but also separate man from devil. Sparda used it to separate the human and demon worlds.
Wrong fact dude...... Yamato can only open portals to hell when the opened portal is on the demons gate, if used to open portals without the demons gate, it just create a gate within point A to point B in the same realm....
To bad yamato's ability to separate human and demon is not effective against sephiroth, since sephiroth is not human demon hybrid but human alien (lovecraftian god) hybrid.....

@@IdkaskThis IS the Vergil that had yet to be controlled by Mundus, and he LOST here.
DMC5 showed that his time in the Demon World & the Qlipoth fruit gave him insane levels of strength, not to forget he still had Beowulf, and his new Force Edge replacement: Mirage Edge, which is literally made from his SOUL.
Edit: Nico's report in English says that Mirage Edge is Vergil's soul as a blade, but in Japanese, it just says that Vergil's using magic for it, so I might be wrong, and I might not.
@ oh right
Also mirage edge is Vergils soul but if he wants to create more he needs to use magic
It’s not really a problem since he has endless demonic energy
The comments back then: “This is just unfair, Vergil is universal or at least a multi solar system buster while Sephiroth only destroyed a good chunk of a solar system.

Very good fictional comparison, and I'd agree up until this point in both these franchises (OG + AC + CC Sephiroth v DMC3 Vergil). However, I think another rematch would be fun as hell once (and if) we see their final peak forms and powers when both DMC and FF7 series' ends.
This inaccurate bury the light wasn’t playing and Vergil wasn’t motivated
And SuperNova wasn't half an hour long

To be fair, this came out in 2017 long before DMC5 was even thought of
Could Vergil win now cause the rocket launcher thing was an outlier
Nor was The One Winged Angel playing..
Curious if this would still hold up now that Vergil is multiple times stronger and has a new Sin Devil Trigger.
Didn't hold up in the first place
I don't think Vergil should have lost but yeah I think he would crush him dmc5
Sorry about the incoming rant......
tbh they nerfed vergil way harder than sephiroth in this video, sephiroth somehow has access to all the mako energy from the ff7 finale to do his attacks, but vergil isnt equipped with his melee weapons or his dads 2nd sword but for one or two flashy sequences not taking into account their abilities or powers. PLUS how did vergil not even teleport out of the final attack if his sword is able to cut SPACE AND TIME in the first place
Dmc5 slaughters hell vergil should have won this anyway
Then they should use a stronger version of Sephiroth, just to be fair. Dissidia Sephiroth's Super Nova is "a blast of such despair that it sends destruction even into other dimensions" as per what it says in the menu description.
Link beats Cloud, Cloud beats Sephiroth, Sephiroth beats Vergil, Vergil is equal to or greater than Dante, Dante beats bayonetta, so Link stomps all of them with bombs and arrows....seems legit lol.
that's not how fights work. in league of legends for example, Teemo beats Garen, but Riven Beats Teemo who loses to Garen. It's all about how the kit and stats match up, not who beat who.
To Death Battle it does
I agree with this but with characters like these, it's pretty linear. It's more or less brute strength and fighting skills, techniques. It's not like Pokemon, Cloud isn't water while Sephiroth is Grass while Link is Electric.
Link beating Cloud was an error
He has a point though. Link only won due to being fan favorite, because everything deathbattle has said up until now says Link would get stomped on. And league of legends fights are a terrible way to measure how a fight would go.
I would so like to see this done with the current up-to-date versions of these Sword Weebs. I personally think they'd have to end in a stalemate of some sort for the sake of either of them not shattering space and time as all the multiverses know it.

Sephiroth past one point literally just stopped trying to fight him head on and had to pull his strongest card to win by a sneak attack after another sneak attack.
@@thyrussendria8198 Doom guy... Hulk... Guts... Etc... If a calm badass goes mad then it is because he's getting serious though. It makes him even more badass
The Alpha and the Omega has returned. Waiting for that round 2
meh if you played DMC V you know that he has less options now. he has 1 more devil trigger, dopplenganger and just Yamato and for some reason his new SIN DT feels way weaker than Dante's. Is just weird....but whats really troubles me is that Now vergil will have even less options, the result will be the same.
@@raulrojas9253 Not really, They'd give him everything he's had. As they gave Sephiroth his gear from an RPG. And in regards to his Sin Devil Trigger; Vergil has always focused on speed and technique, not power. Waiting for the best moment to strike, Unlike Dante. So his may seem weaker, but it's the same strength as Dante's.
@@raulrojas9253 Vergil doesn't need anything other than yamato it's enough for him !!
As of DMCV, Vergil scales with Dante (who has surpassed him for years). Saying Vergil loses to Sephiroth at this point would imply Dante loses to Sephiroth, which I sure as hell don't buy.
@@AeroFlash15 I never said Vergil losses to sephi you can find my comments here somewhere defending vergil as hell until we both decided that we can't convince each other xD
even though I never thought dante is or was stronger than vergil by any chance at least stronger by will not skill
just the plot armor goes with dante on so many levels, when they brought nero to the story they made dante and vergil equals lol

So according to the newly released FFVII Rebirth Ultimania, Tetsuya Nomura has stated that the final Sephiroth battles involving Cloud, his party and Zack are all taking place simultaneously across different timelines
Sephiroth is a singularity now, along the lines of Solaris from Sonic 06
Yep sephiroth is HIM.
Sephiroth can't be destroyed unless all of his existence across beyond worlds are destroyed at the same time
Wow.
Vergil lost because he wasn't motivated
Ok
In DMC 5 he's motivated!
Vergil lost cause he fought THE anime sword fighter
Vergil lost because he was just a little motivated
He doesnt even fight like this in game. The whole concentration meter is meant to keep you from getting hit, by learning your enemy till you know there moves even better then they do. Vergil would have calculated everything sephiroth did.
"Sephiroth is 3.5 times stronger than Zack."
Zack- Level 1
Sephiroth- Level 50
Yes, but strength doesn't scale in a linear fashion. Sephiroth's strength might be only 3.5 times that of Zack, but he could hit that dragon hundreds of times harder.
Lol
At a guess, he's 3.5 times stronger than post Sephiroth-goes-ape Zack. Though honestly, it makes me hope we get to play as Sephiroth in Final Fantasy 7-3.
Yeah, if we compare their damage output, Sephiroth in his human form during the flashback does about 3000-3500 damage I believe, while Cloud/Zack does about 90 I think?
So the stat number usage is kinda silly. This would put Sephiroth at closer to 35 times stronger.

JUDGEMENT CUT!
As much as I love Devil May Cry and know how busted Vergil is, I knew there's no way he could win. Sephiroth didn't even need to use his strongest attack, though it would have ended the fight in literally two hits. (I'm referring to the one that sets the entire party to 1 HP. If used it would cause the show to be incredibly boring as the fight would end in like... 12 seconds.)

@@SeferAngeloEspiritus Where does 11D Sephiroth come from? All I could find for that was Kingdom Hearts which isn't canon to FF.
Fun Fact: Sephiroth never uses his dominant hand to fight. He's right handed but he only uses his left. He does this to show his dominance in a fight.
Look i've always known he was fighting with his left but there's no way that's why lol
Edit: Hate to be that guy but i looked into it really quickly.. he's just left handed man. For whatever reason in the original FF7 for ps1 he does use his right. However in dissidia, dissidia 012, dissidia NT, advent children, advent children complete, crisis core, the ff7 anime and everything else i could find him in in under 5 min he uses his left but square enix never say why. He does switch a lot in advent children making him ambidextrous i guess
Neutral Neutrality if he’s ambidextrous that’s even more badass! He’ll forever be my favourite villain
@UCqWWMYYOZk6wlt6E7a2yV4Q i actually agree haha

Ffvii rebirth sephiroth is overkill..... Vergil can't inflict damage to sephiroth since in rebirth you have to attack all of his existence beyond worlds at the same time.... Sephiroth can't be beaten alone now since he is a living singularity
That's fine. Vergil will still dominate with the power of Motivation and his kick-ass theme song.

I think Vergil might have been able to avoid the supernova using Yamato's dimension cutting capabilities. Not saying he would have won because of it but the battle might have gone longer.
Undoubtedly he could, which is why Sephiroth disguised it using illusions until it was right on top of him. They gave extra time in the animation to explain this, which does sort of counteract the point of him doing it. I'm sure they would've loved to have a longer animation (Sephiroth didn't even get to use his super modes) but didn't have the time or budget to do so.
he did in the fight
I'll do this the way DB would.
Vergil did see through illusions after Arkom and DMC3. HOWEVER. What happens if you compare Arkom to Sephiroth? I doubt he would compare in power even in his demonic form, when he has Force Edge in hand, and even then he never used illusions in that state.
I think this would still be a cool rematch.
Sephiroth caught up to Remake.
Vergil caught up to DMC5.
My guess is the whole opening rifts with yamato wasn't properly introduced until DMC5, this fight is before that so you could argue that they didn't know he could escape supernova with ease.

@@chinococoa6743 how did you even manage that? Seph’s been in smash for several months now
So, just wanted to add a quick little update here, the Complex Multiversal rating for DMC is about to get removed due to PoC removing all of the lore pages in the new beta (this includes statements like Pluto being able to move fast enough to bypass the time-axis, Pluto’s spear being able to warp time and space, Nightmare being able to lift and destroy the entire structure of the Underworld, and all but the lowest level of demons being able to recover from destruction of their body, souls, even their very concepts), and this will stay unless PoC decides to re-add them in the next one.
So that’s fun… looks like people aren’t gonna be able to fall back on the Complex Multi stuff for long.
Personally, I’m both saddened and very VERY confused on why PoC decided to do this, but I’m not gonna judge.
Even without those Vergil kinda wins and there was recent confirmation from the peak of combat discord server that those scans are coming back
@@brokenlimit3030

@@TheLostZoro872jungian archetype scales to nowhere, since it can't be used for powerscaling lol... Jungian archetype is a study of human personality and emotions...

That's such a Sephiroth response. Well played.

kevin jack After nearly being killed he might.
Bo5SxBrennan No, Vergil isn't one for poetic speech. Sure he'll monologue about how he wants more power, but it's never so eloquent. He would've probably said something very arrogant like "Impossible" or something like that.
Aaron Nell Millado Poetic? He was speaking about _literally_ being free. He just used Yamato to escape an alternate dimension where he was being cooked alive.

Eh he just cut the illusion using yamato he wasn’t exactly injured or anything
@String Shepherd
IDK the death battle states that the illusion makes people go mad but Vergil wasn’t affected and just cut it using Yamato but take what you will from it
Just because he survived doesnt mean he wasnt affected by it. In fact he really fucked with him. Just the wording of it. He "survived" thats not the kind of word you would use for walking away unharmed

@@av8r195 no point. Thanos go snap snap
Here is the thing deathbattle would only do a rematch if the outcome would be different and in devil may cry 5 Vergil doesn’t haven any feats and nether does Dante. Honestly I’m surprised in devils may cry 5 they never should what Dante our Vergil could really do. I will say this though they did get the winner of this match wrong simply because Vergil is so much faster than him that seph would literally have no chance to defend himself.
@Robert Rainford Speed-wise, both Sephiroth and DMC5 Vergil actually have similar speeds (around 20,000x Faster Than Light, scaling to Bahamut Fury and Mundus respectively crossing solar systems), however DMC 5 Vergil is just so much stronger than Sephiroth that he’d stomp.
Meanwhile Pre-DMC 5 Vergil doesn’t scale to MFTL speeds and was far weaker than his DMC 5 self, so this Death Battle was when it came out accurate
Ur take on zack is actually not accurate. Zack has NO Jenova cells at all. Zack is a human who was injected with mako to enhance his abilities and grant him a better affinity to using materia. Zack is a full human with only mako infusion. The only unhuman thing about him is his small amount of Cetra in his blood. In Crisis Core, the only three to have jenova cells are Sephiroth, Angeal, and Genesis. The only three to experience degredation. Zack however never degraded, never suffered from any genetic disposition because he was born human and enfused with mako when joining SOLDIER. Degredation was a failure in genetic code from the destructive force of being given Jenova cells before birth. However, of the three, Sephiroth never suffered the same amount of degredation because unlike the small amount of jenova cells that was exposed to Angeal and Genisis, he was given so much jenova cells that even whrn the cells degraded, it was replaced with jenova cells, essentially healing him. The calamity (Jenova) was the biggest source of his power. Zack was powerful as a SOLDIER, but nothing compared to Sephiroth. Around 3/4 of the game CRISIS CORE, Zack struggled to become First Class, even being unmatched to Angeal and Genesis. Until very late game. By that time, the jenova cells had degraded and messed up genisis so much, it pracfically weakened him. Ultimately, Zack falls to Shinra Troops on his way to return to Shinra. By this time, hed already been first class for a while tho.
Im happy tht u pronounced Mako properly tho. Usually ppl say mako like "may-co" and its awful. Id say everything was pretty correct but u mixed up a few things about zack.
Sorry. Im a FF7 fanatic😅
