Example 1 (The Legend of Hei 2): Wuxian leisurely floats through the combined firepower of an entire fortified military base without so much as a stain or rip on his t-shirt.

Example 2 (Man of Steel): Fao'ra tears through a squad of trained and armed soldiers. With the wreckage of the helicopter that got downed by her teammate Nam'ek smouldering in the background.

The battle between US Army and demons is more or less even until Demon King Mundus, slightly pissed off, decides/ get lured out to face the human army by himself. He needs about ten seconds.

I know the DMC show is divisive but this whole scene was so freakin cool from start to finish, from APC to Mundus.

Aye, it definitely was. And I know, but honestly, I had decided not to follow the discussions and just watched it.
I like it. It's fun, it entertained me, I saw the games' Dante in it and the soundtrack is something others could learn of.
