The manga isn't out yet? Wow, normaly isn't it the other way around, where the manga is out before the anime?
Anyways, if anyone is looking for a good anime I'd recomend Chrno Crusade. On a 1 to 10 scale I think I'd give it a "9"
It had really good animation, great sound (I loved the opening and ending songs), good plot, good characters, and an excelent ending.
Basicly the story is about the main character's (Rosette) search for her missing brother (Joshua). 4 Years back Rosette and Joshua encounter Chrno, a demon. But they find out that Chrno isn't evil, and they become friends. Latter on however one of Chrno's old pals from hell comes along, betrays Chrno, and kidnaps Joshua. So back to the present (1928 being the "present" in this anime) Rosette and Chrno are running around looking for him and killing demons along the way...
I know it doesn't sound too exciting the way I describe it, but trust me, it's got a great storyline and I think that most people who like anime will like this one...
I think there are only a coulpe things they could have done to make it better. The fight with the main bad guy at the end could have been a bit longer (in fact most action scenes were a bit too short if you ask me). And there was one character I just plain didn't like (Satella).
