Rosario + Vampire

[Uberbaka]

Based on the framerate and accuracy of the animation it looks like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotoscoping to me.

It's not a fun process.

I don't think I can be bothered with the second series though.. *waves farewell*

[Ryllharu]

Strangley enough, if you like the OP/ED (whichever it is, I'm assuming ED) from the first episode, the single was out before the series aired. Unlike most OP/ED, we don't have to wait until the series is almost over to get the songs.

The ED is the second track, DISCOTHEQUE.

I don't know if the Nipponsei version has the album scans (they usually do) because I downloaded the lossless version which had them as well.

lol @ Marik and his bold, Italic links

[Marik]

I like the way it looks. If it bothers anyone, I'll change it.

[Buffalobiian]

I really don't care, to be honest.

I'll let you get back to your capuchuu discussion...

[Ryllharu]

Fair enough, I will start.

I wonder why exactly that Moka needed to have her power bound, while Kokoa still does not. Where Moka has the absurd strength that we are supposed to associate with vampires, Kokoa seems only to have it enough to lift the huge weapons the damn bat turns into. Dark Moka easily overcomes Kokoa's unbound strength. They are no longer that different in terms of age, so why does Kokoa not share the same level?

Perhaps it has to do with their different mothers.

Also, any guesses on the eldest sisters names? Hazelnut? Mousse? Yoo-hoo?

[Kraco]

Wasn't Moka before this monster academy in a normal school for humans? I think in such a place it would be pretty much impossible to not appear suspicious if you had such power all the time turned on. Why she still sticks to it after joining the demon academy is another question, but I reckon she doesn't want to abandon anymore her gentle and happy outer Moka personality. The sealed Moka is rather more monster like personality compared to it, and, who knows, much less happy.

[Ryllharu]

Moka sticks with it at Youkai Academy because it is the cardinal rule (that everyone breaks). The academy was introduced as a place where young monsters can learn safely and not in the fear of human discovery while they learn to blend in. There was a page or two where they showed Tsukune doing very well in some classes because he already *is* human.

I don't think Dark Moka is that unhappy, there are scenes where she shows a slightly softer side, or little touches of how much she actually treasures Tsukune's friendship. She may pass it off as the other Moka's personality, but in the end, they are the same person. She's just cold, reflected by her power, ego, and rank within the monster world.

Still doesn't explain why Kokoa never got the same absurd burst in power that Moka has, requiring her to be locked down.

[Alhuin]

A little late on the uptake, but m33w is doing a joint with Ayako, for those that dislike Chihiro for archiving.

Notes:

Also, bad news. Tokyo-MX censored this episode, and will probably continue to. There are no uncensored channels left, so we’re forced to release censored. The good news is this may make for earlier releases, since neither we nor chinese need to wait for unsubbed. Bad news is that we all want panties.

Also, this is from a transport stream instead of a share raw, so it should look better.

[Kraco]

I have no idea what there is to censor in the first place. I mean, they did always have panties, didn't they? It's not like we would have got an upskirt with no pantsu.

[Marik]

It used to be uncensored by two TV stations and censored by the other two stations. Now it's censored by all four. Panties will now be covered by bats. They'll zoom way in on some scenes or way out also. Here are some comparisons from the 1st ep.

[Ryllharu]

When a series that is all panty shots loses the panty shots...what justice is left in this world? The whole plot lines of the anime have been for setting up each successive situation where the audience will either get a panty shot or something even more suggestive, while the manga has more of a plot and less focus on the ecchi.

At least one good thing came out of the series. The title track on the OP/ED single, Trickster, is a really catchy song, moreso than the OP or ED.

[Buffalobiian]

Lol, there goes my reason for ever considering the second season.

[Kraco]

Here are some comparisons from the 1st ep.

That's it. Series dropped. I hated that fucking bat in the first place, and now I'm supposed to watch it in all the 202 pantsu shots per episode? Right. A seppuku would be far less painful.

[David75]

Censorship for pantyshots, but the face to sex wasn't censored... go figure.

[¥»»ÄzäzëL««¥]

this is another anime that i watched before reading. i actually came across it on youtube one day when i was just aimlessly browsing. there arent too many episodes, which kinda saddens me, there's always room for more evil moka san, and absolutely Mizore Shirayuki. i did end up liking the manga more though, the finishing kick of vampire moka does get old, but its amusing nonetheless. wish there were more episodes, and for all who haven't seen or watched the anime, its worth seeing. only a few episodes

[My_Akuma_Killer]

I actually did the same thing,i happened upon it just browsing You-tube and loved it. For some reason the bat amuses, i remember one episode he just flies across the screen and goes "I'm a bat!" lol
