Why does the story have to be so specifically tailored to teens with a tendency for self harm and Linkin Park?
It feels like they're trying to somehow outdo Elfen Lied or something...

Just watched the first episode, seems to me people where way too quick to write it off as edgy nonsense.
Great art, great backgrounds, nice soundtrack so far, and fairly well-directed. I suppose people were put off by the shock value, which I understand, it was a little clumsy.

So they could lap up their loli blood. They were treating them as livestock, remember? Vampires gotta eat.

If the vampires wanted a huge source of blood, wouldn't it make more sense to get it from fully grown adults?

>>123738168
Unless the vamps have immunized the survivors now that they're all under thrall.

>>123738138
It was a little silly. Actually it was so incredibly silly that it's a struggle to take seriously, but they certainly tried very very hard to make you take it seriously.

That's more or less the problem. It's trying very hard to be serious, but not succeeding. It reminds me of Black Bullet, but with prettier backgrounds and music.

>>123736642
That scene had the most fucked up perspective in the history of perspective. When the camera panned up everything just went to shit. Cars on the side of the road deformed like shitty sprites which they probably were.

One of the 'faimily' member is probably going to come back as a vampire and be MC's rival for a while before they reconcile and have their bit of CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. It's sad that it'll probably be Mika and all of the cute girl siblings existed just to stuff bodybags.

I think it will be because of whose blood he drinks, Yuu also has the Seraph gene and Shinoa is demon spawn. Either one could cause his body to have a reaction.
