What it seems some people are asking is not DMC5. its DMC2, or what DMC2 should have been.

For DMC3 to exist Capcom had to rebuke the graphic novels set before DMC1 and DMC1 itself, because DMC3 was a type of reboot for the series.

Koboyashi might be the wrong person to contact if you want a continuation of DMC2; since Koboyashi was the producer for DMC4. If you want DMC5 to continue with the story of Nero and Kyrie (I don't), he is the person to contact. Hideki Kamiya also dosen't see any of the DMC games as sequels to his original game, so I doubt he would create a game that continues DMC4.

This is the right thing to do though, which is to contact the relevant developers rather than sending death threats, which is what some people did.

Actually, the DMC series has a non-linear narrative. The official timeline is DMC3 -> DMC1 -> DMC4 -> DMC2.

Therefore, taking this into account, there's a chance that Kamiya will set DMC5 directly after DMC1 and long before DMC4.
