Kraco is absolutely right about the 'hero loses his/her sense of self/confidence' as being an anime tradition that has come to stay. I sometimes wish they could at least portray this differently, as it really is annoying seeing the same traits pop up over and over again in all different sorts of animes... Usually has something to do with the character being based on the 'I have special powers I didn't know about, but I just want to live like I'm a normal person!'
...I'm thinking about compiling a list of anime character archetypes... that could be a fun discussion

That may be true, but you have to realize that Saya didn't have any confidence to begin with... So she can't really lose it, she's just the same as when she began her journey.
We still have 30 or 31 more episodes to go, so there'll be plenty of Saya kickass action to come, I'm sure of it.
Though I agree with the assessment of she not wanting power and wanting to live as a normal person, but you really have to weight her current dilemma. It's not about having power, is about her being a Vampire who has probably slaughtered thousands of people.

It was a really good episode. Much needed background info of Saya and Hagi's past. Quite conclusively indeed. It was an interesting past, to say the least.
Edit: Oh, and obviously it also revealed something very interesting about Saya's inherent powers. She's not at all just a killing machine, and she's probably very similar to Diva, in the end. I wonder if it's only her personality that separates her from Diva.

Yeah, this was a nice flashback episode. I also wonder when was it that Saya let Diva out. Was it before or after the fire. I would also think that the one that destroyed the castle was Amschel with some sort of devious plan. He probably secured some of Diva's or Saya's blood in clandestine and used it on himself, then he killed off everyone. That's my take on what happened, I don't think it was Diva.

Ho, it looks like Diva pretty much torpedoed whatever hope Solomon might have had of acquiring Saya to their side.
I had been kind of wondering why the script kept dragging Riku along with the rest of them for such a long time. This episode certainly explained what his role was destined to be.
masamuneehs
Fri, 03-31-2006, 11:02 AM
bah, I was hoping Riku would turn into a Chiroptera and Saya would have to kill him (although it might still happen...), but this isn't bad either.
Solomon rocks. A bad guy who actually tries to reason with the main character, and not along the lines of 'And we shall rule the world together! Mwhahaha!' is hard to come by. He made her siding with the Chevalier sound totally plausible. I will bet the bank that he saves Saya's life and gets killed because of it though... always seems to happen to those kinds of baddies. And besides, he loves Saya but there's Hagi who (as this episode shows) has a much stronger bond with her.
Kai is ultra-annoying now. I'm interested in what Collins is up to...
pretty good episodes. This show might have some dull moments, but the plot is well-thought out and delivered pretty damn well.
Yukimura
Fri, 03-31-2006, 01:52 PM
Very interesting indeed. Any theories on why Riku can hear Diva's song. That Red Shield guy commented on Riku being different in some way but it wasn't fleshed out. I don't think he's come into contact with Saya's blood but i'm not sure.
Something else to note, if Saya is the elder, why is she so weak compared to all the serious adversaries in the show? Diva's Chevaliers all seem to have many more abilities than Hagi; death ball, transmutation of body, etc... Unless he's been holding back on us Hagi seems like a pretty crappy Chevalier. And Saya, though she's probobly nowhere near her peak, doesn't even seem to be a match for her own Chevalier, who she made with her own blood! Hopefully as time goes on she'll come into her own more, perhaps a crisis of humanity will occur later on, and she'll get a power boost. From what I gathered Saya and Diva were born of a mother that was a creation, so it can't be that Diva was just created to be more more nasty and powerful.
masamuneehs
Fri, 03-31-2006, 02:25 PM
Riku took some part in the experiments in Vietnam, if i remember correctly. While that girl he was with turned almost into a Chiroptera, Riku was only able to hear Diva's song. He was not put under its control or driven mad. But I always thought something about him being in those experiments would play out sooner or later.
Saya is weaker because her will is weaker. Diva and all the Chevalier have serious determination (and are consciously aware of their battle experience, giving them an additional edge in tactics and such), while it appears Saya is only acting off her ingrained instincts/suppressed memories. It is interesting also to note that Saya actively fights AGAINST those abilities, not wanting to turn into 'some kind of monster', while the Chevalier and Diva seem to harbor no qualms with it.
I also like the thought about Diva, because she was made after, was a superior creation to the first one, Saya. Never considered it that way at all...

Fri, 03-31-2006, 04:22 PM
I'm sure by the end of the series we will see the return of 60's Saya's determination, as well as some Movie/Vietnam combat abilities, albeit controlled instead of battle enraged.
I still can't seem to believe that Saya and Diva are of the kind of Chiroptera's that become this grotesque war-form that the others all do. I can't help but believe they are *more* than the ordinary Chiroptera's, even more so than the Chevalier types. One would think that Saya, when Berserk in Vietnam, would have gone into a monsterous form if she could have.

I thought Riku could hear Chioptera and Diva from the beginning. He may have been another person's experiment before he came into the family.
I wonder if he wil turn in the uber-chiropteran. It may be cool to see if it does occur.

Riku was born human, just like Kai.
Again, you need to go back to the episodes in Vietnam when Riku was captured. It seemed pretty evident that all the children he were with had been used in some expirement turning them into Chiroptera. They were all humming Diva's song and obeying her commands.
Riku had just not been through enough experiments to turn into a complete Chiroptera, but it isn't like he was born that way or anything. Some people have the memory of a fish...

During the Saya’s battle with the Chitopera (the one that was George’s friend—I forgot his name), only Riku noticed the sound the Chiropteran made. This led me to believe that Riku is different from the other normal humans. From this knowledge, I made the assumption stated in my previous post.

Sun, 04-02-2006, 11:06 AM
He might have had a drink of Saya's blood at some point and time :). I really don't know how Saya is going to stand up to 5 Chevaliers, especially since they are all stronger than Haji (or so it seems). Saya's blood just seems to kill the Chiropterans that were made by Diva's blood, so Saya should go and feed her blood to random people so she has her own army. That would be kick ass. A batte of Chevaliers.

Heh, and then if Saya starts kicking the ass of everyone you would be complaining that you don't like the series because Saya is overpowered and she kicks everyone's ass. Seriously, animes can never win against the viewers.

Sun, 04-02-2006, 12:10 PM
I wonder if Kai will end up as a chevalier for Saya, or offer to become one. Probably not, but that could be interesting. After reading the diary he should know how the chevaliers were born, though. And there is some slight symmetry between him and Hagi. Such a thing wouldn't fit the traditional story format, I suppose, but anime does have the capacity to surprise.
Well, considering the current happenings Riku might make a better candidate, but I surely wouldn't like to see that. It would just turn too traditional. And I never liked Riku's character, either. I never like useless, wannabe victim kiddies in series...

Either that or Riku will go Super Vamparic Chipoterian Sayin mode and beat the crap out of Diva

I can't down-rep you quickly enough. Stop posting garbage like this. It's not funny and the only purpose it serves is to make you look like an idiot. I'm not going to start a flame war, but please post constructively, this is not the Bleach or Naruto forums.
Riku's Blood was being sucked. Diva was not feeding him blood, and I doubt she will. (If she does, I will be very surprised.) If they turned him into anything now, the series would suffer due to pacing. If anything like that is going to happen to Riku, it will be somewhat later.

Not necessarily. You have to remember that so far Riku has had no other purpose whatsoever than being a victim or an object of remembrance (like it was said, he and Kai might be the only things to bring Saya back. And that seems to be true). The one outcome in vicinity that I dread like plague, yet that is very possible, is that Riku dies in Diva's hands and Saya brings him back as a chevalier (possibly just wanting to save him, not considering the consequences. Like darkshadow said). And then we will have no end of Kai angst as he can't forgive Saya yet still can't abandon his feelings for her.
I would much more prefer that Riku died for good, and that would bring Saya back (via a reality check, so to speak. Make her remember why the Chiropterans are so nasty bunch of people), and give Kai a healthy new dose of determination and motivation to fight. Well, of course even better would be an outcome I couldn't even predict.
masamuneehs
Mon, 04-03-2006, 06:25 AM
since we're all just throwing out speculations here, I'm going to do mine too:
Riku won't die. I think that Diva is going to turn him into some sort of monster, and also getting a little bit of a snack.
The entire next episode:
Saya: "OMFG you killed Riku!"
Diva: "Dude, he was just some human. Woulda died eventually anyway..."
*Angsty flashbacks of Diva killing Joel, Chiroptera evilness*
Saya: "I don't want to be like you!"
Diva: "Umm... too late? We're sorta twins you know."
*Saya lunges at Diva, but they cut to*
*Hagi and Solomon fighting. Both talking about how they love saya and they think they know what's best for her. Doesn't matter who wins.*
*Diva beats down/pins saya*
Diva: "Stop resisting. Your place is with us."
Saya: "I'll never forgive you for killing Riku!"
Diva: "Who says I killed him? / I actually just gave him booyah eternal life"
*creepy eyed Riku stands up, all spooky looking*
Episode ends
or they pull the old "he's hurt, but not dead" thing that still springs Saya into a fury and leaves the character A-OK by a few episodes. In which case their are two possible outcomes: Saya wins (more like David/Kai interfere and rescue Riku)
OR
(my 2nd place idea after the episode described above): Saya and Diva fight, but Riku is all knocked out. At some point Diva gets some excuse to run away and takes Riku with her. He comes back as some 'tragically brainwashed/changed enemy' later on
Blood+ has a good plot and has some pretty kickass moments, but I still doubt they have the balls to kill off any non-villian at this point (unless the series is winding down, in which case David, fat dude, and all those supporting characters (except Kai) are fodder for the final duel). Rather I see it feeding into the anime-cliche system soon...
Kraco
Mon, 04-03-2006, 06:43 AM
I like your first theory (well, the exact wording of the lines needs some small tuning :p). Althought he bad thing would be that it would be, to a certain extent, repetition of what we have already seen. Kai, Riku and Saya's old man was turned into a monster, who barely could maintain his sanity. And while not exactly so close, but those kids that were kidnapped along with Riku also got turned from harmless or friendly beings into monsters. Well, it could be considered a continuation or culmination instead of repetition, of course.

Mon, 04-03-2006, 10:03 AM
the way i see it, riku needs to be turned into a chevalier for saya, she only has hagi now, no way she can beat diva's chevaliers AND diva, with just hagi, i think saya will gradually gain allies ( chevaliers, schiff maybe? ) to defeat them, if not, then well, i see a cliche "second lvl of power" for both saya and hagi coming up

Mon, 04-03-2006, 04:45 PM
the way i c it is diva won't turn riku into anything, nor will she take him away, y the bother? she couldn't care less about human beings right?
so next episode might diva vs saya but saya get owned, and diva leaves saying stuff like "remember u r one of us, sister~(so i will spare ur life this time)" (fly away~~)
saya: "riku! RIKU!" (flashback of how she saved hagi)
saya: "i am sori bro but there is no other way:( "
say either bite him or cut herself and put blood on riku---episode ends---
anyways we know riku is special cuz he can hear the song, so no way hes gonna die next episode, and after the bite, i think it pretty clear he will gain somekind power and becomes an important and strong (enemy?/ally?) soon:D
i seriously hope next episode won't turn into something like Diva talk about stuff like "u r one of us" and saya just keep on saying "but i....i...." for the whole 26 mins
Stop using aol talk abbreviations constantly or I'll start deleting your posts.
For example: Use 'why', 'you', 'see', 'are' instead of 'y', 'r','u','c'.

what does the awakaning have to do with riku dying? hagi had his brain splattered over the place, still saya's blood saved him, even if saya goes mad now, she would NEVER EVER let riku die, she would either go crazy, suprise diva, smack the bitch up, and then save riku anyway, i really cant see riku dying

Like someone previously said, Riku can't die now because he's special for being able to hear the song. He has to serve some purpose later on.

Unless only those who can hear the song can become chevalier type Chiropterans. The kids in Vietnam didn't become chevaliers, but those were some weird experiments anyway.

Back on topic, I dont think ththat Diva will kill Riku. She'll leave him just enouph to keep him alive. That what I hope happens. Him turning into a Cheviler would ruin the whole "I can hear shit that you people can't" feel to his character.

I dont know my whole beef is hes still a kid if i had to spend an eternity like hagi as an adult that would be one thing but staying a child forever. that seems like one of the worst things that i could think of mentaly doing to someone. i didnt think he was gonna die either but i sure didnt expect that she was gonna do him like hagi. oh well i wonder how many episodes we are gonna watch saya swing stuff around like a toon? the way its going it wount be until the last few shows when she decides to bust out her ninja mode.

Red Shield is going to conduct some tests on him, and he's never fought once in his life, so I can't imagine he's going to make any real impact on the battle for a while to come.
When Hagi turned into a Chevalier his arm became all mutated, why is that? Why didn't that happen to Riku? How come Solomon, Anshel and Diva's Chevaliers all without physical defects but Hagi has one?
Diva's character is a little annoying, but super fucking creepy. I guess if I was immortal I'd be spoiled like that too....

hagi's arm didnt mutate immediatly, remember saya's flashback when they were in russia? hagi's arm was normal, my guess is its either something that comes up after a while, or hagi tapped into his chiropteran strength, but couldnt change it back, that would also explain why he hasnt tranformed completely even once yet, maybe he fears he cant transform back

... great logic. Diva bit him first and left him for dead so he's going to join her. Yup :rolleyes:
One thing that confuses me is this: Riku could hear Diva's song. Not only that, but he was basically trapped under her command (to come to her) when he heard the song, like the Chiro-children from Vietnam. I was pretty sure that they all were in this experiment there where they recieved Diva's blood or something like that to turn them into those monsters.
So why didn't Riku die from Saya's blood if he has Diva's inside also?
As retarded as the earlier idea about Riku becoming 'a super Chevalier' were, i can't help but remember the movie Underworld and think that maybe if he is able to have both blood from Saya and Diva in him at the same time he can even surpass them? Seems wild though...
Does anyone recall what exactly Riku went through when he was captured in Vietnam?
telemari
Sat, 04-15-2006, 11:50 AM
That's not it. Riku was able to haer Chiroptera (what's that, anyway?) even before that. You can see that in that episode where Saya fought (and killed) Forest.

are you saying....you have already seen op3??
so blood+ has already gone over episode 20+ and people are just subbing it slowly?
(like Nanashi subbing Eureka Seven, the series is finished, but the subbed version is not finished yet. same situation for blood+??)

Well, the basics were what I dreaded. At least it was executed in a fine manner, like Ryllharu said. Still, when this episode progressed, I came to realise even more than Riku's fate, Kai's condition bothers me. Perhaps because what happened to Riku just happened, and that's it, but Kai seems to have fallen into the Shinji pit face down and for good. He was a fine character for a long while, but now he's only receiving the most miserable leftovers from the script writers. On the other hand the focus has shifted away from him more and more (thank god), but unless it stays that way, and as long as he affects Saya, I don't know where this series is going to.

first time watching a Shinsen presentation of Blood+ in awhile.
Collins smelled like trouble right from the get-go. Son of a bitch will obviously pull a Judas in one of the upcoming episodes.
Joel and David's conversation was a little dry, but I was impressed with Joel's character. A little on the scrawny side, but a pretty good leader figure. David didn't sugarcoat anything at all when he gave Saya her new sword (and man is that thing wicked looking. Could do without the jewel though, but i suppose that has some big symbolic importance...) Lewis always cracks me up.
Collins though, Collins is your standard 'even though i'm doing a great thing for all of humanity I really just want to be rich and famous so i'll be a traitor to obtain that' scientist character.
This was totally a 'regroup' episode for all of the characters. A little too dry and stiff in some points, some dialog came off really over serious.
The Schiff are in the episode 26 preview, looks like we're going to get some action again :) Oh and Riku's voiceover for the preview is both sad and creepy at the same time...
Ryllharu
Sat, 04-22-2006, 12:53 PM
I didn't think this eps was particularly dry. All of it was pretty much necessary, I think a lot of people were spoiled by the movie, which was all action. Here, the creators are given all the time they need to delve into each of the characters. I've been enjoying all of it. Admittedly, we've been getting stuck into a pattern as of late. "Oh no, what have I done?" followed immediately by "I must fight until the end" etc. and repeat. Hopefully this will be the last time.
Nice short scenes with the reporter and the Ojou. There's something wrong with her though, talk about mood swings. Good for a couple of laughs.
I fully agree about Riku's preview. The final line has to be one of the creepiest things I've heard in a while.
One question. Diva basically proved that since Saya hasn't been partaking in blood lately, that she's become considerably weak. We've cleary seen Diva drink, and we know the Sif and regular Chiro's do, but I don't believe we've ever seen many of the Chevalier do so. They've killed people, many in some instances, but it doesn't seem like they drink blood. Hagi hasn't, Solomon hasn't, and as far as I can guess, only Amschel has. Unless I'm not remembering something.
NeoBear
Sat, 04-22-2006, 01:34 PM
I completely agree with the observation you made about doing wrong then saying some crap about fighting till the end. I feel like I have herd that line over a dozen times in this anime alone. I didn’t hate this episode but it did fill kind of unnecessary, to me the reporter and the school girl seem like nothing more then a way to waste screen time lately and or give us a break from all the self doubting of a lot of the main cast. Things look good for next week’s episode though. Buy the way am I the only one who thought the music they played while David was talking to Saya was totally out of place?

I really liked the new opening animation. I don't care for the song either way, its better than the last one, but its hard to beat Aozora no Namida. I really like the part at the end where Saya and Diva are facing off.
As for 26 itself, great fights with the Schiff and their uncommon weapons. Kai is back to being a whiner, but this time it is understandable. As we all expected, Amschel is probably up to something that is not directly in Diva's best interests, but his own.

good episode, wonder what Riku can do? and the new OP was awsome. very nice.
Yukimura
Wed, 05-03-2006, 01:26 AM
Lol I finaly got to watch it just now. Poor Kai, I can't believe he let Riku drink his blood but I guess that's love. He'd better join up now and become a Chiro though, or else he'll lose his whole family to it. Though that would solidify him a place in Red Shield.
As to the Schiff, they all seem to be faster than Saya, (her body, not her reaction time) so if they all gang her how are they losing. Instead of plot devicing it would be nice if they just sped up Saya to around the level of every other bloodsucker in this show, it just seems unbalanced and dumb that she can't do any cool tricks, and that Haji has more preternatural ability than her. If Riku starts running around with blue trails i'm going to be both overjoyed (he's finally useful) and severly pissed (Saya is weaker than the little baby Chev she JUST turned).
Kraco
Wed, 05-03-2006, 05:15 AM
Rather good episodes. Although I have to wonder why the ship had such lousy defences considering who they are normally fighting against. But perhaps Diva's gang never considered Red Shield any real threat, and thus never even planned to attack the ship. They will have hard time finding new dumb guards, when they need to tell them their predecessors were all slaughtered like helpless pigs.
Otherwise they were enjoyable episodes. It's hard to figure out just how Kai will react and how he will change. Sometimes he looked and behaved just like an angsty anime character by not accepting the facts, yet sometimes he looked he does, like at the very end, in a certain sense. But at the very least he found out what he can do: Be a blood bank for his brother. Better than nothing, considering how lousy an organization the Red Shield is.

Nothing beats the first OP song, but this one was a definite step-up over the last one. I like the style they used in the OP as well and it seriously points towards Saya going psycho sometime down the line.
Strange, Chevalier need neither sleep nor food, but Saya is ALWAYS scarfing down tons of food (meat especially...) and falls into long sleeps for several years in a row. You'd think that since it was her blood in Riku and Hagi it would be the same for them, but it's the opposite...
Someone feed Kai some stfu. He was the one insisting Saya give him her blood, he'd read the diary, he knew what was going to happen. He'd rather his brother be dead? Just deal with it.
Speaking of food, thought they did a good job with Riku's 'thirst', one of the better parts of the episode. Action was pretty good too.
Next ep looks like it'll have a bit about the Schiff's past.

That reminds me a lot of 3x3 Eyes, where the Sanjian race is all powerful like gods, but they are not immortal, but they have the ability to grant immortality to someone to protect them. This way, they are protected while they sleep when they are most vulnerable.

This is why I was convinced that Amschel and Solomon were full of it when they were telling Saya that she's no different than they are. From Diva's little display when she had just gorged herself on Riku, they are much more powerful. Chevaliers are strong and fast in their mutated forms, but Diva tossed Saya around harder than any of them ever could without really even touching her. The two of them are very different from Chevaliers.
I do agree with Bud's assessment that they are able to grant a different set of powers to their servants. Chevaliers become unsleeping, ever vigilant defenders.

about the guards wasnt it mentioned that Red Shield only has about 100 members? i would think that whole slaughter of the guys on the ship would have set them back a lot. and yeah they suck, it makes me wonder how they get anything done while saya's asleep.

I can see Kai asking for Saya's blood so that he can become a Chev. That would be awesome as i can not see Riku being at all a good Chev since he is too small.
Kraco
Sat, 05-06-2006, 02:48 PM
That would be totally awesome, and if I had written the story, I might have even made it like that. However, as it is, I'm not totally sure Kai is thinking like that, and is the suitable kind of person. Such a decision requires a person who can single-mindedly concentrate on something and even give his life (or humanity) for that. Kai hasn't really shown that much resolve. He only worries about his brother nowadays, and isn't much good for anything else. He couldn't even pull the trigger to try to shoot one of the attackers.

Ho... This was a really good episode, actually. It looks like Kai is trying to find a role for himself. That would be excellent as nothing is more aggravating than a character stuck in the past. And Kai's combat skills also surprised me. He beat up those two big ruffians as if they were nothing.
I have been waiting for this kind of development for some time. Of course considering the series it's still questionable whether the Shciff can become allies, or if they are just going to meet a sad fate, one way or another. However, if Kai can make them allies, it would be a big plus. They don't seem to really be a match for the chevalier, but at least they are better than those lousy suitmen with guns that Red Shield usually is sporting.

Kai's combat abilities didn't come completely out of nowhere though, I do remember them making allusions to him being a prominent member of the local gang, during the exploits of which he presumably became close enough to the Ojou for her to become attracted to him. We finally got to see where that minor character build up resulted. Admittedly, he's been pretty incompetent until now, but remember he was fighting things that were not ordinary humans, like here once more.
I'm hoping Saya and the bunch can help out Irene, she's really been one of the more interesting characters so far. I couldn't care less about the rest of the Schiff.

You aren't looking for them very hard, are you, buddy? The latest from Bakakozou is 27. Check the previous page of this thread to find the link to it (http://forums.gotwoot.net/showpost.php?p=294738&postcount=135). And scroll a little up from that to find 26.
And just claiming you aren't complaining doesn't change the fact you are. Complaining about subbing groups, especially quality ones that are doing their best (like most of them are), is a taboo for a reason: We are just enjoying completely free meals. Week after week. I'm not saying the subbers wouldn't enjoy doing their work as such, but to even considering doing something like fansubbing, they are by necessity decent people. And such people will ultimately feel responsible for the work they are doing. This means delays in releases might bother them as well, if they can't make it to the expected time due to real life or other reasons. And in such a situation it's extremely cruel for a random fan to complain about their work.

As to poor Irene, I kinda figured that would happen and I'm disappointed that no one in the show had enough brains to figure out that the Sif definately came from Diva and thus would go all crystal on contact with Saya's blood...until after they tried it out.
Poor Red Shield, they couldn't take on the Sif who weren't even really after them, and now Amchel is probobly going to bring in all the Chev's to wipe them out, good luck.
Last but not least, whatever happened to Karl? Where did we see him last and why is Solomon so impressed with his hand?

Episode 27 really made me like Kai a little more. Finally he was able to have a conversation that didn't include whining or trying to be a badass.
the flashbacks with the Schiff were done very well. I'm glad they got some background and history in.
Irene nearly choking him when he told her to put her arms around his neck was pretty funny.
I smell Amschel's scheming a mile away... I still bet he causes Solomon to die, as the bish seems to have the best idea of Amschel's intentions.

I believe his arm was chopped up during the fight with Saya in Vietnam by her katana with her blood applied on it and thus crystallized. Ouch.
Just finished watching 29 myself and I have to say that it's good to see that the psycho is back and in tip-top condition. I really adore Karl and he's without a doubt both the most attractive and most badass Chevalier in the show. Hopefully we'll get to see him put that new arm to some good use in a near future.

Hmmm I didn't see them not knowing about Saya releasing Diva coming. Maybe they thought it was Amshel or something. And Hagi's arm was not explained at all, the spontaneous conversion doesn't make any sense...Maybe it's for defying her will or something. And the final scene with Saya, Hagi,.and Riku all crossing the street withougt Kai was nice. I hope he finds a place for himself though, a good show like this can only handle so much angst.

that just reminds me what my gf said, "don't bother me when i am sleeping"
here is the image in my head,
Saya is sleeping, and Riku comes in
"Saya neechan!! let play hide//seek~~"
Saya: "WAHGAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
and the whole red shield is destory lolz:eek:

Hagi's arm was tottaly explained; direct contact to Saya's blood eliminated human genes in arm.

^ Does it really do that? I thought her blood only crystalises a Chiroptera's blood, killing them like they said in the episode (besides I don't think any of her blood touched his hand).
Pretty good Ep, answered a lot of questions. But we still don't know what Saya's promise to Hagi was. :mad:
I've got a feeling that it'll be something along the lines of Hagi having promised to kill Saya after it's all finished, sick of eternal life/done so many terrible things in the past and all that.
Unless there is something from the past we haven't seen yet.

um I dunno what is has to do with DNA....But I think its just simpler then that ..i.e.
If your Chipoterian and you loose a limb...then the one that grows back dosent look human anymore... something to that effect.

No it has to do with saya's blood. Her blood crystalizes your body that is why they had to get rid of the body part that is missing. If it was just, if you loose a limb it doesn't grow bad normal, Solomn would have not been able to re attach his arm. Also it explain why in the first place that guy who made the blue roses had those arms as well as Hagi's. I also think that the guy that made the blue roses was Diva supposed husband that is why he went crazy when he say saya, but i have no proof.

just watched episode 29... ouch that was a gruesome death....
I was shocked at the amount of emotion from Hagi, it was really a long-time coming I guess... he and Riku complement each other greatly as Chevaliers. Van Argeno has balls of steel.
This show is really getting good now. The characters are finally getting into their groove and coming along fine. I still don't like Kai but the rest of them bring alot to the table. With great animation, fierce action, some excellent music tracks and enjoyable characters and a well above-average plot line this show has made it back up into my top 5.

Rikuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Definately didn't expect any of that. :( And Diva said she got something from him...nasty...and poor Red Shield, guess most of their capital was invested in that precious boat, it was a pretty nice boat too.
My thoughts on the one year Time skip:
Potential Pros -
- Saya will increase her skills
- Kai will increase his skills
- Kai's gf will disappear
- Amshel's schemes will make more sense
Potential Cons -
- The Schif will disappear, they were interesting
- Riku won't get any better
- Diva will still have more Chev's with better skills

Sat, 05-27-2006, 02:56 AM
Just finished 32... and well, that was probably one of the cruelest things I've seen in an anime to date. I really did not expect Riku to go so soon, and definitely not in such a disgusting and frightening way. I was however relieved to see that Karl was not killed off yet as I easily find him the most appealing Chevalier. And uh, is Diva pregnant now or what the fuck? I assume she is, seeing how she was rubbing her stomach while going "... Since I got something precious from this child."
... Disturbing indeed.
As for the time skip, I think it's all good as it'll save us Kai's sobbing and he should have a lot more training under his belt so he can actually make a difference rather than just cry and whine about how useless he is. Oh, and it'll hopefully make Karl even more awesome. "ACCEPT MY LOVE!"

After watching the last two episode (31,21) I can truly say that i enjoy this series. For some reason its flows so beautifully to me, and I don't theorize about what is going to happen. Its just really really good.
This series plays with the storylines of other older series, movies and such. But it is really well done. I hvae become attached. Especially considering its a different type of vampire series, and i like series that involve this.
Riku dieing, wow i did not see or expect that to happen, not once but twice, poor guy.That is sad but really realistic, especially in the way his death occured, just when he found his resolve, it puts a exclaimation mark on the point that shit doesn't work out.
Haji, just kicking that guys ass, whe he saw Riku's crystalized body, you could actually see that emotionless face that he has actually filled with anger.
Diva and Saya the never ending two sided sword. Connect through hatred and forever binded by it.

i highly doubt Saya's blood could save Riku at that point.
But it shows something quite interesting, that while Saya can kill anything with Diva's blood in it Diva can just as easily kill anything with Saya's blood in it. Therefore the two can kill the others' Chevaliers as easy as pie...
I'd like to see Kai progress from here. This has to be the catalyst that gets him going.
reaction: "OMFG she killed Riku"! You bitch!"
When Diva said 'I want that boy' I thought she wanted him as a possession or something along those lines, not just kill the kid... did she seriously not know that her blood in Saya's Chevaliers would create the exact same kind of death? Stupid broad.
Ryllharu
Mon, 06-05-2006, 11:51 AM
I figured that Diva didn't know Saya had already taken him, though I honestly can't see how she couldn't have known. Then again, Saya never recognized Solomon, Carl, or Amshel when he took over the woman's body when she first met all of them. Carl tipped her off a little bit, but nothing more than just a random odd feeling.
Back then I thought that it was because Saya was either stupid or not nearly aware enough of her own powers, but now it begins to look more like unless they are actually transformed, the two girls can't really sense Chevalier, even if they are right in front of them.

So when a person "crystalizes", they can't go back. I thought Saya could have saved Riku because previously, once the blood was in his body, the effect was almost instantaneous. He started having those crazy convulsions.

Mon, 06-05-2006, 10:55 PM
nope riku was definitly beyond saving.
There was an episode before where joel places a drop of saya's blood into a petri dish of diva's blood and it just crystalized...so basically if their blood comes into contact with each other at all then it's game over...

I'm not really sure what the status is on this series, I know that up to 37 have been released in RAW form, but I also know that Shinsen is subbing 12 series at the moment, and would be hard pressed to get anything done fast. I've never known Bakakozou to do anything quickly, so we just have to sit and wait patiently.

Didnt' expect that ending to the episode, it feels as if they are wrapping things up - however another 20 odd episodes to go, looking forward to how they develop the Kai/Saya relationship from here.
Hagi seems to be an odd character, in so far as he gets thrashed easily in one fight, then comes back, seemingly with resolve, and proceeds to kick ass, for a short amount of time, till he gets speared (seemingly happens quite often also).

Well after a nice little while (36 days since shinsen released ep 32). We get to see grown up Bishi Kyle, drunken bum David and ever festive Lewis again. Lots of interesting things seem to have happened in the interveneing time. Amshel and James have created the Chevalier Green Beret and Haji has upgraded to a much bigger cello case (I assume he threw that thing). Hopefully after a year Saya will finally be stronger and faster, at least at the level of Haji and the other Chevalier. I can't wait to see the conclusion...
And apparently some one took it upon themselves to post details on Wikipedia beyond what has been subbed...whoppie, at least one charachters fate is ruined for me...

You just lost some respect, man. And I can't say it would get better since it has all the time been good, as far as I'm concerned, and there's no reason for it "to get better".
It was interesting indeed. David was something of a disappointment, but I think this actually fits his character, so it certainly balances it out. Thus the real disappointment was that Joel & gang has come up with no better means of fighting even those basic Chiroptera grunts. According to this episode Kai got those exploding bullets after his own initiative, which means that Joel has just been whistling and looking up at the stars all this time, doing nothing but feeling sorry for himself. Well, at least he's not drinking.
Bizarrely enough their enemies, on the other hand, have been doing huge progress with these GM soldiers and apparently they have nice plans running in the background as well. I seriously think Kai joined the wrong side in this war. Well, if not for Saya. She's unarguably a better chick to woo than Diva...
darkmetal505
Mon, 07-03-2006, 10:57 AM
Why would Diva's side support the GM soldiers? Wasn't it their idea to spread Chiropterans around the globe? Or is it just a facade? It also seems like Saya has gone out of control a little bit, not as much as in Vietnam, but does look a little crazy.

Well, maybe they first created the threat in absolute secrecy, and now publicly (or semi-publicly) offer the cure. That would gain them immense popularity and influence to further whatever plans they have. Well, as long as nobody can prove they are behind the original problem. But with Red Shield gone, there might be lack of anybody with any real authority to reveal the facts convincingly enough.
seanos
Mon, 07-03-2006, 04:43 PM
Yowza, this was one excellent episode, got blood pumping.
At first I thought 3-4 years had passed, I assume they changed Kai a fair bit (physically) to to put emphasis on how much he's grown (mentally).
Must admit, I'm quite suprised (and relieved) that it didn't do a mournful followup to the previous episode, their decision was excellent way to further develop the series.
I was quite suprised at David's reaction - and was waiting the whole episode for Kai to get one good punch into him (although, in hindsight, role reversal of David/Kai was fairly obvious from early on).
I was kind of hoping they would leave Saya out for an episode or maybe two, build up the suspense a little, however her introduction, like everything in this episode (and series in general) was beautifully done.
I don't think Saya has gone out of control/crazy, I'd say she is in control, for the first time we have seen. She has 'awoken' her inner powers seemingly, and I would guess has 70%ish control over them (probably compared to ~10% before).

It's something you do to train how to properly pull the trigger. One error factor contributing to missed shots is that your aim will move when you pull the tricker, for various reasons.

Have you had established, formal training for firing a gun?
The recoil happens when the bullet is already on its way. It's too late at that point anymore to try to fix your aim. So, the ideology behind the training with the coin is to remove any problems before that moment. The psychological factor of the insecurity about the behavior of the gun, like darkshadow said, or nervousness of the moment of discharge with live ammo can't really be removed otherwise than by shooting enough with real munitions, but technical aspects can be helped with this coin thing, without any live rounds.
Shooting with a firearm seems like a very simple thing, but there are real and concrete things and tricks that help tremendously.

a new episode of Blood+ Man it's been a long time since I've seen this show... Hope they start releasing episodes regularly.
The role reversal with David and Kai is actually a pretty nice touch. I'm glad Kai's finally seemed to have grown up some. David's alcoholism seems like pretty standard fare in anime and I have no doubt that after Saya's reappearance and maybe some angst w/ crippled Joel he'll make the classic anime recovery and get back out there kicking ass again.
The Corpse Corps remind me of Shinra SOLDIERs. Anybody else get that feeling?
Trying to figure out what James and Amschel are doing by supplying nations with these troops courtesy of Argeno's help. To me it looks like they're about to set up a new order and are getting their pieces into place. First they perfect the threat, distribute the cure (I assume those Corpse Corps are loyal to Diva), let everyone become dependent on them and then pull the rug out from under them.
Why? Because you need guards to run a jail, and even Diva and her Chevaliers seem to need food, in the form of human blood. Diva was imprisoned by humans for years, I think she's planning on turning the tables on them and securing herself an all you can eat buffet at the same time. Basically the Corpse Corps are the first real step in controlling the world of humans, not just threatening it.
Oh, and the old guy who raised David reminded me of an episode of Monster. Guy raised some kids for violent purposes and now is atoning for it by providing the kind of home that is right for children.
And I agree with seanos, it would have been better if they'd milked Saya's abscene a little longer. Guess they have other stuff they want to get to...

Although, memory is bit shakey on the flashbacks - I thought David's father also in army, and presumably raised him? Died at some point (probably in army I'm guessing, at which point I assumed David in army/or some such). Again, memory really is dodgy as hell, so apologies if this was covered in multiple flashbacks.

I used to watch Blood+ religiously every week when it came out but I stopped at episode 14. I don’t know what happened. Maybe because the animes I was watching at that time were better or I didn’t have any time for Blood+ and it wasn’t going in the right direction for me. But last week I decided to give it a one more go and I am very happy with my decision. It gets better and passes all tests of awesomeness. So do carry on with the rest of the episodes.
Now the latest episode….
So Saya is back with a vengeance.
Her intro was very short, I was hoping for a bit of slashing here and there. They didn’t even show Haji’s face. Has he changed too along with Saya? Saya looks a bit more sharp and aware. Maybe she has been truly awakened.
Sif are still lurking around. So one year hasn’t changed their situation.
David needs to get his act together and Kai needs a bigger gun if he wants to fight head on with those monsters.
Hopefully the next episode will be out soon.

Over all Saya = one bad ass mother fucker, Also Kai is being silly thinking that nothing has changed or should have changed. I mean she spent a year killing i assume everyday.

The term is called Emo, which is what Saya has officially become. :p

Saya has a new outfit and it came with a new attitude. The new dress is very vamp like but I don’t like the boots. The old ones were much better and cuter.
No, Saya’s behavior isn’t annoying. She knows what has to be done and knows how to do it. Her problem is that she wants to save everybody around her and that’s very hard to do. She looks very determined and way fierce than ever.

I guess no one else is using VLC. but with the subtitles, they have tags that basically say : "VLC sucks, use MPC". there were tags in the earlier eps... but this time they made it so that its just unwatcheable with VLC. the thing is... the guy from Your-Mom says only VLC messes the things up like this. the question is why? is the program they use? cuz other subs, from other groups don't show those tags...
at any rate... I downloaded MPC and its pretty cool, so that kinda removes the problem (but i'm still curious).

powerhoused 4 episodes today. (just finishing 45) Man it was weird to see the Sif get three episodes almost all to themsleves this close to the end. The whole thing with Solomon just sorta dropped off the map...
Ya know, I was thinking that he is quite poorly named. Solomon is supposed to be wise and able to see beyond simple desires and make decisions founded on reason and justice. Yet this guy carries on like such a romantic! He is so narrow minded it hurts.
James fucking with the Sif just to alleviate his own pain is one coldblooded deal. What an asshole, seriously...
I never saw the whole Karman and Moses thing. They clashed so much and were almost always at odds, and then you get more yaoi-fodder than you can shake a stick at! I thought Moses' character was acting really weird throughout these past three episodes. Thanking Kai I can see, but getting manipulated by James and totally flustered over Karman just seemed strange...
Still, I've grown to like Sif, so them getting spotlight right before the final battle (it's got to be so soon!) was fine with me. Their deaths have been the most emotional out of all the characters, moreso than Riku's or George's. It's especially tough to see Moses go,,,

Well he is a man after all. He is in love and when you are in love that kind of switches off your brain and you start thinking with you know what. Also who would you choose between Diva and Saya. The choice is obvious. Alt least Saya is saner than her maniac sister is.
Too bad to see most the sifs die like that. I was hoping to see some of them survive.
What next?
Saya is due to go in hibernation soon and she is weak as it is and Diva is about to give birth. This just keeps getting interesting. I hope the climax is a good one.

Haji and Amshel will duke it out next time, and judging from the previews, Amshel is a winged one also.

Nathan said something about Saya's and Diva's mother's Chevaliers. I wonder if they will show up.

Nobody has speculated on Nathan yet. His character has changed greatly since his introduction in the series. At first he was just a wacky chevalier dude whose role is comical relief, but after 48 episodes, I get the feeling that he's the strongest of the 4 main chevaliers and has his own agenda. For the past few episodes he has always been at odds with Amshel and unlike Amshel, he actually cares about Diva.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if he jumps ship and kills Amshel in the last episode.

He also prevented James from killing Saya that one time. Maybe he is Saya's mother's chevalier (since he also hinted at it). He was told to keep both of her daughters alive and look over them?

I am pretty sure that Nathan is Saya's mother's chevalier as he said he was alive way before Diva and Saya. So he surly chevalier of one of the queen before diva/saya. Doesn't have to be their mother but most likely. I quess chevaliers grow in power as they get older since when Nathan is angry Armshel looks patheticly weak.
Kraco

When did he say that? I must have missed it. I was thinking, or remembering, Amshel being the oldest of Diva's chavaliers, so he should be pretty much aware of all that concerns Diva, at least greater matters. Thus he should know if Nathan is or isn't Diva's chevalier.
If Nathan is an old chevalier, he might also be Saya and Diva's mother's sister's chevalier, and thus potentially Saya's and Diva's dad. If he is an old chevalier, I think that might be even more interesting than simply being their mother's own chevalier. It would also further explain why he saved Saya once and why he seems to like Diva and Diva's offspring, as it would indicate he's not as single-minded about liking only one queen and destroying the other.

He said "what if the mummy, the mother of Diva and Saya, had Chevaliers of her own?" to Amshel in a threatening manner after Amshel questioned his experience.
I wouldn't underestimate Amshel, however. He's obviously a very driven scientist with set goals and the ability to orchestrate extremely detailed plots and as such is bound to have countermeasures prepared against Nathan. Also, I do wonder what he plans to do with Solomon.
At any rate, Amshel is easily my current favorite due to his classy looks and collected manner. I kind of hate Nathan since he looks like a complete fashion victim. His flamboyant personality is pretty nice, however.

I didn't see that coming, I expected Saya to die also. I would have loved to see Nathan fight, but he was just not that type of guy. They kind of hinted at the "loosing blood potency" deal because each of Diva's Chevalier's was weaker than the older one. I like how Haji outsmarted Amschel and pounded him into the giant spike. Next episode should be interesting.

Hmmm, interesting indeed. Diva no longer being "pure" stopped her blood from killing Diva. That was sad b/c I wanted to see them both die, and have that whole 'sisterly love' thing.
We might as well call this group Team Invincible b/c no one freaking died. I would've liked it if one of them died, but that was wishful thinking.
I was hoping Nathan was really Saya's/Diva's mother's chevalier but that didn't turn out to be the case either, He decided to go all emo and give up on living b/c the person he wanted to protect died. Oh well, I'm curious to see how this will turn out and how it'll play into the movie this show is based off of(although I think it's probably going to get retconned out of existence)

He was emo all the time. Amshel was the Mr. Logic supervising all kinds of external activities like populating the world with monsters, and Nathan apparently considered Diva's clothing style and opera singing his greatest projects.
I didn't actually hope Saya would die fighting against Diva like that. I've kept hoping Haji will fulfill the promise. Well, it's hard to say if such a thing would be more bitter or not, but it would make a more unique an ending. Still, the two babies complicate the situation, as Saya was, for more than a hundred years, just telling herself it's over when Diva is dead. But now suddenly there are two new queens.

Wow, what a disappointing way to end things. Amshel connected several direct hits yet Haji was barely injured except for this torn wing? I'm so sick of the "invincible protagonist syndrome" so many animes seems to be suffering from. Honestly, considering Amshel's blasts were able to disintegrate concrete with ease I expected Haji to be a bit more torn up.
And Nathan... After all this build up he opts to just let Saya smoke his flamboyant ass? I know he was eccentric and all that but come on. Next episode seems to be one filled with overly melodramatic scenes in which they once again try to cheer up a depressed Saya before she goes to sleep. All in all I have to say that I'm sorely disappointed and that I think this show could have been so much more.
Sigh.
That's not true. He simply dissappeared without explaining what he was.
Yeah, we do seem to have a lot of loose ends present. What happened with Solomon, who was Nathan really and why did they put such a focus on Amshel leaving his ring behind before he went to his death?
