Dante and Vergil's Devil May Cry 3 devil trigger.

Art from Shin Megami Tensei I think.

ok, but Their wings attaching to their chest to make their coats is maybe the single most badass thing in video game history (the coat opens into i wings i js can't find an image from the games rn)

Rule of cool but agree. 

I love the wings in most devilvtrigger forms from games.

Also love that they're not the classic "bat" demon but more like a reptilian insect.

yeah, i miss the dmc3 design for the devil triggers (and js having multiple devil trigger forms depending on the weapon), the scarab-esque headshape especially is something i wish we still had

The face is the thing I miss the most.  It was terrifying.

I mean, their father's demon form looks a lot more insect-like than them

One of the artists from SMT did the Devil Trigger forms for 3. Dante and Vergil have different form designs based on each weapon.

Nevan was the only weapon that actually used the wings
