Fun fact, Hideki Kamiya the creator of Devil May Cry and Bayonetta was told by SEGA to have her glasses removed. Kamiya felt this was wrong for her design as the glasses added a look of sophistication that no other female lead has in gaming. Kamiya then proceeded to give every character in the first Bayonetta game some sort of Eyewear just to say "Fuck you" to SEGA.

The fact that Bayonetta is one of the most historically accurate depictions of witches I have seen is hilarious to me considering how extravagant she can be.

[TouyaTT]

You guys: *sees Jeanne* "Friend or foe?"
Me: "Yes."

[RazanaArcclaw]

Bayonetta is really one of the best series ever, so excited for the third. And their cover of fly me to the moon is so good.

For some lore coverage basically there is hell and heaven, hell is all the demons you see while heaven is the weird white and gold being your see, angels. So technically bayonetta is "the bad guy" even though the angels are more "for the greater good" then "good for the individuals"
Humans cant see angels and devils.
They were fighting on the plane a bunch because its a big part of the massive opening sequence.
Also why bayonetta gets naked is cause her clothes are her hair, and she uses her hair to cast spells, like open portals for demons.

Quick rundown on Bayonetta:

She's an Umbral Witch with demonic powers. Her "suit" is actually her hair, which she uses to power her abilities and summon demons. Her powers let her transform into animals, use various weapons, guns, etc. The series has a lot of similarities to Devil May Cry that you already pointed out and they reference a Legendary Dark Knight (Sparda) in its history, but that doesn't mean they're in the same universe. The lore is pretty confusing if you don't watch the story or play the games, but it involves time travel, alternate dimensions, and Bayonetta's family and clan relations.

In Bayonetta 1, all the enemies are angels aligned with the Lumen Sages. These angels are based on creatures from different mythologies that serve the gods while the Judeo-Christian ones are based on biblically accurate angels. They're also named after the Cardinal Virtues rather than deadly sins. The first boss in Bayonetta 1 - you can see it in this trailer - is a giant floating cherub head with two dragons sticking out of it, eagle wings, massive claws, and a crown which is based on a description in Genesis of the cherubs outside the Garden of Eden which is a far cry from the cute angels we're used to in pop culture - there is a reason why they say "be not afraid."

The girl, Jean, is Bayonetta's friend turned rival then back to a friend who's essentially her Vergil if we're sticking to the DMC comparison. Their relationship is more or less the same as Dante and Vergil, except they become allies as you can see in this trailer.

So glad your finally reacting to one of the (arguably) the sexiest & powerful woman in gaming history. The second game further expands on her personality than just being a glambot and there’s a third game in the works so can’t wait for that 💖

[JasonRogue]

So, her "suit" is actually her clothes that is her hair. She and Dante were created by the same developer and director Hideki Kamiya. Nintendo actually helped finance and publish the Wii U and Switch version of Bayonetta. As a result Bayonetta 3, for now, is a Nintendo Switch exclusive.

[exor_cisis]

Should definitely check out her every summon! Those are the real star of her gameplay.

[CyberDalek]

Bayonetta is Definitely a Wild Card, and we Love her for it
And what's crazy about her isn't just her 4 guns but also her Hair, her cloths are actually her hair, and she uses it to summon those monsters you saw and explaining why she looses her clothing when she does so because all that hair is going to the portal to control those monsters

[mrowemr.pp]

I totally suggest reacting to the story of bayo 1 and 2 like cinematic and such. It'll make much more sence. Also her clothes are made of her hair and she uses her hair for some of her summons hence why she looses her clothing👍
If you decide to watch the story a good person to watch is yoshesque she has a full playlist of the bayo story at pure platinum level.

So a bit of lore context, you two got many things right just from the few lines in the trailers. Yes bayonetta is a witch an umbran witch (the umbra witches worship the demons of inferno and the moon) and so is her girlfriend jeanne, Bethany was correct bayonetta in this game is in fact on a mission to save jeanne from inferno the place where dead witches get dragged to so that they will suffer for eternity, Ken pointed out that her outfit was sorta like venom and he is half right her outfit is her hair and the reason why it goes away when she is summoning demons is because for bayonetta to do that she also uses her hair to summon portals or wicked weaves as they are called. The masked enemy is named balder and I don't want to go in too much depth about him since he is a very interesting character all that I will say is that he is a lumen sage the opposite clan of the umbra witches (they worship the angles of Paradiso and the sun). If you want to learn more about the lore of bayonetta I would totally recommend checking out the videos "the lore of bayonetta" the first and the second one in tiptoe the tank those two videos are really detailed and very informative.
Ps:Sorry for any grammar errors I'm Portuguese so it's inevitable but I tried my best. Much love from Portugal❤️

So the reason they didn't focus much on explaining the backstory is probably because it's the second game! Whenever you get around to the first games trailers, I'm sure you'll be a bit more caught up!
Also regarding Bayonetta and Jeanne
>"friend or girlfriend"
While it's not explicitly stated it is implied lol the creator Hideki Kamiya(same guy who made DMC) has certainly nudged at it

The Bayonetta series is phenomenal! A definite recommend!

You should definitely watch the cutscenes for Bayo 1 and 2! They should give you the whole story while being extremely fun. That's how I got into the series!

[soulbro]

The same guy who made Devil May Cry, also made Bayonetta. Bayonetta is basically female version of Dante. Cool little fact, the person who designed Bayonetta is a woman (Mari Shimazaki).

[KaBeeM]

Not spending much time on the backstory mostly comes down to this being the second game. Most of the trailers expect you to know these things.. or not care for them anyway^^

To me it's surprising to see how much actual story content of the second game they show in these trailers. If you know the world and the story of the first one, you know all the characters except for the Lumen sage she fights and the boy she meets in hell.

[Krigzulv]

With Bayonetta this is a Wicked wild card wenesday

[RomnilWater]

Bayo is one of the best female characters out there (at least of the modern age). She's sexy, knows it, and uses it while also being intelligent, loyal, and just badass. Everything she does she does on her terms no one else's.

[ecridemon]

Nice! Finally! You guys should definitely check out the cutscenes for this game. Either just Bayonetta scenes or the whole game as its own thing.
Platinum has a super cool style of games that I really enjoy; one of my favourite games (by Platinum and in general) is a game called Astral Chain, which has a similar combat system as Bayonetta.
You should definitely check out the 5 trailers for Astral Chain, it has a super interesting and compelling story, cool cyberpunk aesthetics, awesome music and atmosphere and very good voice acting and characters!

[BaoZakeruga]

People like to call Bayonetta "Dante with boobs" but I actually found Bayonetta a better written and more fun character than Dante who really carved her own niche in the 'batshit crazy action game' genre.

[KingKP]

Bayonetta 2 is without a doubt the best game that ever came out on the Wii U.

It is just absolutely perfect in every single way imaginable. I'm beyond excited for the third game to come out this year.

[drakofox]

The attacks in game you saw are technics called Torture Attacks and she uses them when her magic meter is full there references to how Witches died.

The Angels as you see are monsters in shape and there goal is to fill the world with there Light while demons....are just demons


The world in game was split in 3 realms Light/Heaven/Paradiso
Dark/Hell/Inferno
And last Chaos/Earth/Human world
And finally the in-between bridge Purgatorio or Purgatory
