The great Hideki Kamiya answers Bayonetta questions from the community. Funny as usual, but here are some of the highlights/confirmations:

1) Yuji Shimomura, movie director of DMC 3 and DMC 4 is working on the cutscenes for Bayonetta. This is good fucking news!!! Devil May Cry 3 has some of the best scenes ever. I definitely saw this guys influence in the footage released so far, I just didn't realize it was actually him.

2) More info on transformations were discussed. Kamiya confirms that the transformations do not take up any sort of "magic power" and that they can be used freely in battle. They are to aid in movement, etc. Fucking rad!

3) Someone asks if he wants to make a new Okami and if he is sad that he is not able to.   The answer is yes.

4) Kamiya thinks you are all crazy for not liking the flying space shooter last level of Devil May Cry 1. "That state was awesome! People just don't get it." No, we don't Kamiya.

5) Kamiya answers the question: "Who would win in a fight? Dante or Bayonetta?"

6) There is no japanese voice acting in the game for any region. Kamiya feels Bayonetta shouldn't speak Japanese, as that is not her voice.

7) Kamiya does his America bikini model pose again!!!

P.S.  Here is what the US/EU cover will look like:

    So the panther transformation's like Mario's B-dash? That's fucking awesome! I'm kinda surprised that Kamiya hasn't played DMC3 yet. And that last part of the Q&A was very unexpected too.

    Kamiya-san is such a cool dude. If only more developers did interviews like this.

    As for the US cover art, hm, not too bad. Typical international cover with the protagonist pasted on the front, though hopefully Bayonetta's sheer sex appeal will tempt males into purchasing. =P

    I.. I just about cried.

    I think I saw in an interview before that he wants to build on the character, Issun..

    Fuck, man.. I love Okami, and what he said made me happy and sad at the same time. :[

    Anyways, back to what Hideki Kamiya said about the camera angles. I was really glad when I heard that, because I hate it when the camera is like, frozen, and you can't see wtf you're doing in a battle. :/
