I am definitely stoked about the anime series, I mean it's being done by Madhouse for god's sakes. Capcom could not have picked a better animation studio for the job, they are the perfect studio for animating a DMC anime.
My impressions for DMC4 showing at TGS:
*Demo was far too bare bones to make a solid conclusion about the game play in DMC4. What was shown was great, but there was clearly a lot of things that weren't put in the game. Most of the controller wasn't even mapped, 7 moves at the most, like 2 types of enemies, not even a boss fight, 3 environments, 2 weapons ( a sword and a gun) and stuff. It was like a 10 minute demonstration essentially.
*Which brings me to the next point, the demo as stated by Capcom was a showcase of 2 things: The Devil Bringer and the graphics engine. Both things delivered IMO, Devil Bringer has potential in the combo department but it needs to convince me that it can compensate for the style system VERY well. So far it's solid as a singular style but we are talking about 6 styles to top here...
*Graphics were phenomenal, no complaint. Framerate, art, design, animation and textures were all sweet, and the cutscenes were CG level. A DMC running at full HD was joygasm to watch. Variel looked like a God, fire effects were some of the best in next-gen. Probably top 5 best game artistically speaking for next-gen, the environments were just.... OMFG. It probably doesn't grab a person's balls as much as something like GOW but once you pay attention to the details and the close ups, the next-gen power is all there.
*Trailer was great, but too short. Story is so far looking amazing, as long as the Nero tie in is good. Thank god Dante is a bad ass again. Nero's VA was a good choice (Johnny Bosch) but so far I am edgy about that princess girlfriend or whatever. Dante will be playable later in the game, I am like 99% sure of it so I am not worried at all. I just want a Vergil return, MAKE IT HAPPEN CAPCOM!

The soundtrack is great as well, no complaints there either.
My only disappointment with DMC4's showing was that there wasn't enough of it. I needed a lot more to quench my thirst for DMC4 media. The TGS demonstration was a VERY EFFECTIVE cock tease, and I will be gnawing on to every single bit of DMC4 info from now on. :lol
