Could be good, lets hope people dont look to much into its main character.

seems to have the same type of crazy OTT characters as say no more heroes or madworld.

This brings back long forgotten Japanese school teacher fantasies.

except... if the teacher was a witch....
and was in a game that looks a little too much like Devil May Cry.

To the people who say that it looks like Devil May Cry, that's because the game is made by the creator of Devil May Cry. I think the coolest part of this trailer is when she turns into the cat and then from that form begins a combo straight back into being human mid combo.  Here's hoping the game doesn't turn out to be just as good.

It looks like Devil May Cry for a reason. Look into it.

I'm stoked for this game.

Looks like a blend of Devil-May-Cry-God-Of-War-Matrix-Shadow-Of-The-Colossus or something of the like. At least that was the impression I got from this trailer somehow.

It could be good due to the fact that it doesn't take itself seriously. Kinda like DMC during the early PS2 days.

it's from the guy who created Devil May Cry, which came before God of War

IMO, DMC has the best combat mechanics when it comes to hack n' slash games so I'm really looking forward to Bayonetta

Little late on the trailor, eh?

Anyways, there's a Q&A with Hideki Kamiya on the game and gives a few additional details. The concept may scream DMC but, from what's been said thus far, there seems to be enough differences to make it an interesting and a first day purchase.

Obviously it looks like DMC. That was a given ages ago. But it seems a little too similar to DMC4 in my opinion. Giant snake-like boss... check. Giant statue boss in the middle of a platform you run around... check. Everything down to the character design and backdrops. I wanna love this game, but it's getting harder and harder.

I cannot fathom why anyone isn't loving everything about this. If this is as at least as good as DMC3 or God Hand, I'm sure I'll be satisfied.
