Well, with Luka's role on the previous game it would be logical to have the same role in 2, but almost as a couple being worrysome of her whereabouts and such.

What makes Bayonetta a symbol of female empowerment are two main things: 1) she is Bayonetta. 2) All other males are either useless or being ridiculous. Not only does Luka tries, but gets saved. Enzo is the stupid servant and Rodin is overshadowed by her. Not to mention that the bad guy is..well, a guy and that the two most powerful deities are Women (Jubilee and bayonetta's summon that punched her)

Pairing up Bayonetta and Dante is like pairing up Batman and Batwoman. They are virtually the same with a few differences in personality in opposite genders. Ultimately, as "badass" as that pairing would be, makes a terrible and boring couple in most stories.

Luka works great, as a couple or as the boy she lovingly plays with, because they are pretty much polar opposites. Think of Batman & robin for example. Batman is so dark, that Robin had to be created as a talkative, fun-going lad to counter his mentor's tone in the story. The same applies to other sidekicks and characters like Hulk (Angry Brute that wants to be left alone) and She-hulk (Intelligent and self-confident). Even relationships based upon the Beauty & the Beast are so interesting because they both are very different characters.

You can keep shipping DantexBayonetta, but it seems that BayonettaxLuka will be the official pairing.
