But if a character shares a heckton of similarities to another character, I'll add the category (Once again, look at Dante and Inuyasha,). Are you OK with this? I don't want things to get negative. Hi.

Let's be fucking blunt here.

There are no ripoffs of any character here. And if there is a "ripoff", it's most commonly called either three things: a Parody/Spoof, a Homage, or a Bootleg. Saying Dante is a ripoff of Inuyashu is like saying Goku is a ripoff of that monkey kid from Journey to the West. Goku is heavily inspired from the character, but he isn't a blatant ripoff. Oh wow, they have similarities in their goals and physical appearances, who is to think that it's a confirmed fucking ripoff?

Point here: '''Dante seems to have many connections and similarities to Inuyasha, but no way in hell is he a ripoff. When Dante grows cat ears and starts wearing kimonos 24/7, feel free to shoot me in the back of the head.'''

>It's the truth.

No, it's not the truth, it's you being an arrogant, stuck-up brat who thinks he's always right. But in reality, you're just a kid who doesn't even know how to differentiate a parody/homage to a blatant ripoff/bootleg. No, having a lot of similarities or connections doesn't make on a ripoff of another. Here, let me try to drill this through your deaf ears once again (or blind eyes, you can't hear on the internet):

Deadpool is clearly a homage, dare to even call him a "ripoff", to Deathstroke. '''Mercenaries? Check. Healing Factor? Check. Firearm lovers? Check. But there's a thing that differentiates the two: their personality. Deathstroke is more serious, analytical. Deadpool is batshit insane.''' It's what makes these two characters similar in the character build, but not the actual character that makes them seem more diverse and different than each other instead of being carbon copies with the same feats and so on (if that makes sense).

Dante and Inuyasha? Let's see what I got here:

Uh, they have a brother. Er, they're half demons I think. White hair and red clothes...

huh, that's all i can think of off the bat. looks like they have some similarities, but they're clearly different in terms of personalities and abilities as from much I've seen from DMC and Inuyasha alike.

'''Long story short, pull your head out of your ass and learn something Wolverine-Man. '''Keeping this up even when it's blatantly wrong/opinionated, being told to stop doing it in the process, but you keeping it up is gonna result in what? Use your brain this time... Correct! You'll get blocked for misconduct. Now I'm no admin, but I advise you stop doing this before it comes back to bite you. And if you come back with a sock even if you pass by my personal warning, that's going to hurt your reputation even more.

So, tl;dr, STOP.
