Blood-C

But otherwise a really slow and somewhat annoying pace. Had to quick forward through the first 10 episodes as it was dragging horribly.

It has it's moments, but I always felt like they put together two different animes, one with a very cutesy feel, which felt like it was going nowhere, and another with action that blood which still feels underwhelming. While the action/gore scenes are decent, most of it felt rushed and hollow. Story telling is bad, the real plot, is thrown at you in one episode.

Honestly, it only gets the 4 stars for the gorn.

Otherwise, I feel like his could have been a shorter series, like cut it down to 3 episodes. Or just watch the last episode on YT, you are not missing anything.

Having remembered Blood and Blood+ I figured this would be worth a watch but it's got more than a few flaws.

-Overall poor/average animation. Inconsistent sizing of the characters and object Comically stretched limbs on oddly thin characters

-Weak story Build is slow, repeated episodes without any clear direction and about 90 seconds of main story content. Last 2 episodes contain more story content then the previous 10.

-Oddly anticlimactic fights. Inside the context of the story the fights in the first 10 or 11 episodes "kind of" make sense, but the fights seem hollow when the main character is beat down for several minutes then kills the monster of the week in under 10 seconds.

A real anime, not suitable for minors. Too gory, violent, and with a lot of well-crafted fight scenes. A story that unfolds piece by piece, episode by episode, until it reaches an epic ending that will take your breath away.

It's an okish anime, if you manage to hold on for the end. Not gonna spoil anything, but I almost lost interest in it several times, yet the end is worth the boring, repetitive, almost stereotypical anime plot.

I know nothing about it's relation to other anime (if any), but as I watched it, it got me (even if barely).

Gore, some anime tiddies, some kawaii moments, meh, worth a watch at least.

I finished seeing the Blood-C sequel movie just now as well, but the 12 episode anime itself... was something really bizarre and "despicably" special. It was too much even for me, and I love Gantz and Elfen Lied!!!

I was expecting it to be the next series after Blood+ knowing it was a spiritual sequel... However it turned out to be thematically and structurally something completely different... It functions a lot like a mixture of "When They Cry" + Gantz.

Only the lead girl Saya's name and "girl fighting monsters with sword" element is taken from the previous series, as this shows thrusts this new Saya (who is noticeably much more cuter, bustier and sexier than her previous version with her extremely hot Alexis Tipton voice), into a world that she seems to be suspiciously OK in.... Living happily.

Without spoiling, this anime tries to hide what it actually is and that's one of the most unsettling things about it.

Aside from the awesome and gorgeous action animation, sexy female characters, jump scenes and an insanely catchy and cool opening which make this anime maybe worth watching, the story is quite shallow and relies on shock value.

But only those who can handle extreme shifts in a shows themes. And I mean EXTREME are advised to watch it. I'm still not okay with its ending which just left me speechless and so empty inside...

Weird thing is I had previously seen the last episodes penultimate horrifying climax in Facebook video in 2020.... And i unwittingly ended up watching the anime itself so many years later... 7:49am 13.4.2025.
