    The first ep wasn't bad, but I had no idea what was going on in the end. The cello dude shows up, she gets her teacher, he's killed by someone, and the vampires show up. Now, is the cello dude with the vampires or what? And what the hell were they doing in the dark? There's these disgusting dripping/things being torn apart noises, he has something in his hands? She's yelling stop, and then... they're kissing? With a monster standing in the corner of the room? WTF?

    And I restate my previous doubts about a mysterious cello player. Flute, yes. Piano, yes. Violin, yes. Even saxaphone would be ok. But what kind of mystery man plays a freaking cello???

    All the creepy vampire men play the cello, because of its full bodied and soothing sound. Though I am amazing he can play it when he banadages up his freak hand.

    Since Saya is a vampire, we know that if you've seen the movie, plus there are tons of hints in the first eps, no weight gain from food, goes to the hospital for blood transfusions, etc. But with the flashbacks intersperced in the first eps, it got the impression the creepy cello guy was actually the person that turned her. He fed her his own blood through that kiss. Apparently that does something, because the cut on her face healed.

    She probably had to be 'awaken' again, drinking some blood from that guy is a possibilty. Also, wondering about Kai, how he'll react to Saya being a vampire. There is nice blood content also.

    Episode 2 is about, but haven't gotten that yet, and by watching the first episode, it seems good hopefully it'll get better, which I think it will, as this is only an introduction, and you haven't seen her use any vampire abilities as of yet. At the start I thought she was putting the jumping act on, like you see her jump but not that high, I thought she was trying to be a normal high school girl or something.

    Continuing from my previous post:

    That jump is another thing that hints at her superior abilities. I thought 'almost two meters' was a little abnormal for a high school women's high jump, and it turns out it is. Apparently the high jump record for Texas (thanks Google) is 1.93 meters. Saya just missed 2 meters. I had the same impression as Kai at first. I thought she was faking a little bit, even though that whole image really didn't fit the image we all got from the movie.

    I'm guessing her abilities were stunted somehow, but they still were fairly superior. After the 'transfusion' she'll be even stronger.

    Officially makes up for the entire movie (which I did like, but wasn't great), and becomes the best (serious) vampire anime I've seen, all in the first 4 minutes.

    The series isn't all action, and I'm glad it isn't. There's a lot of good character dynamics to go into, and Blood+ does them in a smooth way that naturally flows from one to the next. Not fast paced, not slow paced, but just the right one for this kind of series.

    I did finally remember why she was so pissed off in the movie all the time though. I'll let a few more people take the time to watch this eps and maybe see the movie if they haven't seen that.

    This show is really good. There was just enouph action to keep me watching and wanting more. I cant
    wait untill the next episode next week. Saya kicks ass and that sword was nice.

    I only have two problems with this show right now...

    First, I thought the animation when they faught would've been better...

    Second, the VA's suck, especially when Kai is screaming...


    Also, it seems when Saya awakens she starts talking in English, it'll be interesting if they can pull that off correctly...

    Well, the movie was bilingual, so I wasn't really surprised about that.

    I have no problem with the rest of the voicework, but Kai does suck.

    Dunno why I just don't like the musician, Saya seems cool(not Shana cool) enough to keep me watching. Only way I see it making it in my top 5 list is if Trinity Blood or Basilisk finish.

    I'm still willing to stick with this show. I feel it's got a lot of elements in place that could make it really entertaining in the long run. I also feel like the action will pick up as well.

    Cello guy is pretty cliche, standard cookie-cutter "Tall dark and handsome sad guy who kicks major ass".

    I can only wonder how the guy connected with the 'Mouse' project can't keep a lid on those things. 2 escapees? You'd think they'd keep something like those on completele lockdown on the bottom levels of Area 51... He also seems oblivious to Saya and the Cello player even existing... Both their blood could be found at the school in the room the Mouse was killed in....

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    maybe he simply doesn't care about their existence... maybe the mice are much more important!

    So are the mouse things like another horribly gone wrong experiments kind of thing, because thats what it seems like they are, but i dont know, guess we have to wait and see, probably they tried to fuse vampires blood into a human body or something and got a human transforming into a very ugly bat with no wings. I wonder if they explained it in the movie, i forgot. The next couple of episode will tell if this series will be great, i like it so far. oh and that beach they were at, thats a fuck fest at night [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

    Episodes 2 and 3 were a bit slow. Some facts were reveled about Saya's and the family she is living with, which was nice. The fact that Kai and Riku were also "adopted" was kinda interesting; I thought they were George real sons, for some reason...figure.

    Episode 4 was more of my liking as we see Saya turned all bloody killer again. The fight scene was nice; it went pretty smooth.

    Looking forward the next episode&

    Yeah, I thought they were George's real sons also, but it's cool to see that they were adopted also.
    Well, the US army have taken George.
    Can't wait for the next episode, this is going really well.
