Blood-C

This anime is worthwhile, intriguing, and left me excited at the end. It follows Saya, a high school girl who fights monsters that feed on human blood.

The story is well-suited for a 12-episode miniseries. The character development is executed effectively. Saya, with her innocence and caring nature, is portrayed convincingly in several scenes. Her relationships with her father, Fumito, the cafe owner, and her classmate, Tokizane, add depth, especially as the story unfolds at key moments. The cat's mystery is also satisfactorily resolved in the final episodes. Although the initial episodes focus on school life, which tested my patience, the later episodes justify this setup.

Watching this in 2025, after seeing several movies rich in twists and themes, the storyline may seem somewhat cliché. However, the way this cliché is presented makes it enjoyable. The action scenes are well done and engaging. While the plot twists are commendable, they do not exceed expectations.

The voice acting is strong for each character, and the animation is impressive for its time. The music is also good. I didn't realize this anime had prequel and sequel movies, but I'm eager to check them out since the series hooked me by the end.

In conclusion, I really enjoyed this anime. I would recommend it to anyone, especially those who are new to anime or looking for a mini-series.

It's really hard to recommend this because it sabotages itself with a horrible start, but if you like bloody things, you won't be disappointed. It's not called "blood" for nothing, you know. Some of the brutal stuff I saw gouged out my eyes.

This movie is very easily predictable. Not to mention the weird spindly long bodies with the giant boobs is hard to watch. It's a typical I'm a high-school person out to protect my friends and family and this case she never does and towards the end I was rooting for the monsters. Every time she gets beat up or watches all her friends die she then activates her power which spoiler her eyes just change and then she wins rinse repeat throwing a twist for the end which we all saw.... Garbage. Not to mention it is super gory. And if it's on like Hulu they will edit it even more.

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.

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.
