People still care about Dante? Well, I guess they must if he got a 1-seed, but honestly, the last time I remember DmC being relevant was that reboot or whatever it was that everyone hated.

Devil May Cry V is currently in development. Some trailers for it came out around E3. They're giving the DmC universe the boot and bringing back the old white-haired Dante. That will probably generate a bit more goodwill toward him and make something like that a little harder to pull off than it would have been in '13, for instance. Personally, I just don't see Cuphead being able to pull in enough support regardless of what kind of pic Dante gets.

Ah. Didn't know that. Yeah, that should be enough. I seem to remember Allen having a "most recent incarnation" policy on pics in the first round, and if the old Dante's back...yeah, that's enough. I knew that the Cuphead upset was a longshot (though potentially a valuable one because as you noted, Chloe and Lightning are both hated as well), but I initially went with it assuming that Dante would be handicapped by DmC. If DMCV has brought back the old Dante, this becomes easy...and Ganondorf-Dante in R3 becomes actually debatable (I'm sticking with Ganondorf, though.)
