After watching the first episode, I must say, it has potential. While Dante isn't the same as the one from DMC3 (no funny one-liners), he's still bad ass. And I do agree with you, though - Dante just works far better in English. But they made it work alright in Japanese. I'll have to give it a few more episodes to really pass judgment. And then wait for them to bring it here to the states, 'cause you know they will.

Max's updated list:
Currently watching Hayate the Combat Butler Kaze no Stigma Devil May Cry (or the Misadventures of Dante Sparta as I like to call it) Doujin Work Zero no Tsukaima season 2 Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai (or Higurashi season 2 as everyone calls it)
Would be watching Sola (need to download it still) Gurren Lagaan (Geneon got it >.< thus nobody's subbing it anymore)
Will be watching later in the year Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu season 2 Shakugan no Shana season 2 (what is it with series' getting a second season this year?)
-Max

Geeze, watching a lot more than I am, I`m re-watching Ouran High School Host Club, you`ll have to tell me if Hayate is good, I`ve heard good things, but haven`t taken it for a spin yet. Otherwise, I`m watching Air Gear, the techno music amuses me. Also, I recently watched Tenjou Tenge

Hayate is decent. It's good for its random references to other animes, if anything. It's anime original episodes aren't very good, but they make fun of themselves when they do those. If you like Air Gear, I HIGHLY suggest reading the manga, which is 20 times better than the anime. You can find it here for free. I have recently finished Code Geaes, now that the last 2 episodes have finally aired. Still left on a cliff hanger, but atleast it's a better one than the last one. -Max

Pretty cool, but I normally use, www.onemanga.com/ I haven`t read any of the manga yet, but I`ll go ahead and start.

I've just been enjoying the classics. I started watching Hellsing again. Haven't caught up on Bleach or Naruto yet. Maybe I should sometime. Death Note had an series too...I need to catch up on a lot of stuff.
I really don't like reading manga online. I need the book in my hands to really enjoy it.

With a new season means new anime to watch. So of course my own list has updated.
Currently watching: Shakugan no Shana season 2 (does this surprise any of you?) Clannad (because I just can't get enough of Kyoto Animation's work, 'specially when they do Key stuff) Minami-ke (for something somewhat normal and not insane) Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun (for great fan service) Bleach
Recently finished Gurren Lagann (pure epic win) Kaze no Stigma (pure epic fail...) Nanoha StrikerS (damnit all... they fucked it all up) Potemayo (extreme cute and funny. Loved every moment of it)
Gave up on: Hayate no Gotoku (it was getting too long and tedious, I'll stick to the manga thank you) Devil May Cry (with a distinct lack of plot, it got boring real quick) Gundam 00 (only because I can't get any good subs. Bloody mkv's)

Because I'm bored and constantly putting off doing my homework...
Finished lately: Shakugan no Shana season 2 (I wish I could read the novels instead, from what I've heard, they sound better lol) Clannad (Not bad ending, but not particularly great either) Tsubasa Chronicle: Tokyo Revelations OVAs (While season 2 sucked horribly, these OVAs were fucking win) Big-O (never did get to watch it much on Cartoon Network back in the day, but I did enjoy it this time)
Gave up on: Much of what I had been watching including Spice and Wolf (boring), Persona Trinity (had potential, but just went to slow), Koutetsushin Jeeg (despite everything Chappy said about it, I found it lame), and several other shows.
Currently Watching: Konokon (I think James will like this one. I got two words for you dude: Fox Girl. Althou it may not be furry enough for your tastes lol) Soul Eater (Saw a trailer and was entertained by the well done action animation, giving it a few more eps before passing judgment) Code Geass season 2 (it's Sunrise, it's going to be a trainwreck, but damnit, I'm going to enjoy my giant robot anime Sunrise trainwreck, like I enjoyed the first season) Kamen no Maid Guy (I heard the manga was good a while back, and after seeing the first ep, I think it might be pretty damn funny)
Alright, that's enough for now. Maybe I'll go do that homework now...
-Max, watching too much anime again...

Bah, it takes more than just a simple 'fox girl' to lure me in. I have standards mind you. 'Sides that, at the moment the only anime series I'm really even watching as of late is Bleach.

With a new season comes new anime to watch, as usual. Here we go again...
Currently Watching: (random japanese) Hitman Reborn - I blame Chrissy for dragging me into this series. Turns out it's pretty entertaining. To Aru Majutsu no Index - only one episode into it and it seems interesting. Giving it a bit longer to truly pass judgment Toradora - started with the manga, moved to the novels, now the anime. Hopefully the anime does it right... Clannad AFTER STORY - Loved Clannad, so of course I'll watch the sequel. It's that rare 'after the guy gets the girl' story you don't see very often in anime.
[to be continued, maybe]

It's been a while since I've updated my list.
What? I'm bored in class and we're doing literally NOTHING. The teacher is messing with Adobe Illustrator right now.
So we're about 2 weeks into the fall season of anime. It's hard to judge what will be good at this point. But there's a few that's caught my attention.
To Aru Kagaku no Railgun - the side story of Index, which is already proving to me far more entertaining than the original in 2 episodes. Yay for rampant lesbian teleporter and a far more interesting main character. Sacred Blacksmith - it has potential, though it feels like a JRPG made into an anime. Dunno if this will be any good in the long run, but I'm giving it a chance. Sora no Otoshimono - rampant fan-service, high quality animation, potentially interesting story. It's worth a shot. 11 Eyes - likely a H-game turned anime, though it has potential. Not sure where the story will go in this one. Kamfer - I'm sure this will be epic fail, but it'll be interesting to watch regardless.
Recently finished: Bakumonogatari (Ghostory) - oh so very interesting. Shame that they couldn't air all the episodes, but at least they'll release them online. Lots and lots of talking, but interesting, amusing, and often times abusive talking. Very enjoyable. Chapel also recommends it.
Would've watched, but didn't care to: Haruhi season 2 - had this came out a few years ago, I would've been all over it. But Kyoto waited too long and did too many stupid things with the series that I gave up with it at episode 2. And that's coming from a fan of their work too...
Manga list... Because I'm that bored: Negima! History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (gave up on the anime) The World Only God Knows Bakuman Great Teacher Onizuka: 14 Shonan Days (the return of GTO!) Bleach Naruto (I can't believe I still read this...) Mirai Nikki (James, you'll love this one) And a few others not worth mentioning.
-Max, totally bored and wishing his teacher would just stop ranting and let us go already!

Been re-watching some of the oldies but goodies with my friends: -Outlaw Star -Cowboy Bebop - Ghost Stories (Oh god, if you haven't watched the English dub of this do it, do it NOWW! Preferably with loads of other people.) - Irresponsible Captain Tylor - Jubei-chan the Ninja Girl 2 (Not as good as the first but they have the same voices as the original so that is a plus) - Slayers Revolution
