Blood-C Audience Reviews

HeadlinesExotic Boring
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
sohaibkhandon Gory anime with starrt 2 3 episodes uninteresting but story lives upto the point that u want to keep on watching this fantastic anime. An indeed clifff hanger ending but i heard that theres a movie that continues. An awesome anime in my perspective and opinion
eviltimes The anime series Blood-C is a collaboration of Production I.G and Studio Clamp. As a result it has the Clamp style super thin long limbed, heavy breasted, mostly female cast. But the storyline and character for Saya - an already established character from Blood the Last Vampire and Blood+, has been abandoned. In this 12 episode series, The first 10 episodes are identical, with only a different monster rising from the ground for Saya to kill. As one of the monsters says to her: "pathetic" - and he is so right. Only in episode 11 are there any hints as to what is actually going on, and then everything is dumped out all at once in episode 12 (which is good stuff, but should have been spread out, foreshadowed - anything to make the rest of the anime interesting). This is just an extremely long trailer for the movie Blood-C: The Last Dark.
arorashadow_2003 I will start out by saying I haven't seen anything related to the Blood Franchise until now. Blood-C is a collaboration between Production I.G and manga team CLAMP which is where my interest to see this came from. Unfortunately the series suffers what I both like and hate about CLAMP. Blood-C in the end proves to be only a bloody and violent mismatch.Blood-C for the most part doesn't skip out on the action, it's very violent and very bloody however where it really lacks is in the storyline. CLAMP besides their unusual noodle art CLAMP's signature style is also well known for cute romance stories involving cute girls and cute looking boys. For the Blood franchise I can't tell if you it's appropriate, however I can tell you as far as this story goes any scenes with implied romance lag horribly. That is the apex of the problems with Blood-C is the ridiculous pacing problems and a seeming inability to build an atmosphere and keep it. The kind of cuteness worked for Cardcaptor Sakura and even Tsubasa Chronicle and even XXXHolic, but for some reason for a series like this, it feel very out of place.The first five episodes are a joke of how much they abuse this cute girl version of Saya with her walking to school, singing and eating sweets then going off to hunt monsters at night and returning soaked in blood. Rinse and repeat you will find this series growing stale very fast even if you are a patient viewer. With each episode you question Saya's competence to be a fighter against these supernatural beasts and it's even more egregious in the eight episode where a monster appears in the school yard and she stands there doing nothing, while her classmates get slaughtered left and right.The monster fights provide some excellent action and animation, gallons of blood and a little scariness but like so much of the story lacks any good suspense. Much of it has CLAMP's finger prints so glaringly over it that it's a gaudy series. Great animation and great music but a very lackluster story. For sure not one of CLAMP's better works and certainly not one of I.G's shining series either.
blackmamba99971 This has to be one of the goriest of the anime series. A program about a girl (Saya) who is enlisted by her father to become a sort of mediator between the humans and the Elder Bairnes. Elder Bairnes meaning demons who eat humans. But sometimes, these demons take too much liberty and eat too many humans to be desired, hence Saya who is trained using the sword to quell her foes. But somewhere in the middle, is a coffee shop owner who is a friendly type to Saya who gives her coffee and a unique soft marshmallow like treat and listens to her problems now and again. But during her second year in high school, murders heap beyond her control by the elder bairn's, and she must find and fight some of the most vicious creatures she has ever witnessed. However, sometimes after or during a fight, her temples give her pain, as if remembering something horrible in her past. She doesn't even know her own mother's name, if she's ever had one in the first place. Using this knowledge along with a talking spirit dog who is trying to help her memory, Saya realizes that all is not what it seems. This story looks like it is heading to an answer such as -- what if the people she knew were already dead? Living in a town where no outside interference occurs. With all the bloody messes and mass murders, you would think top notch police help would be called in. But, these people might be the product of past murders or sinful people who were condemned to live out their lives unbeknown-st to them that when their number is up, the elder bairn's are called in to clean them up as they see fit. But Saya might have lost her memory in the process of coming to this sleepy town. And in so doing, her father, might have kept the truth from her and taught her the ways of the shrine to stop the elder bairn's because of her unique talents. Such as mentally transforming herself into a perfect killing machine. This is another clue to her past, as in, what if she is an elder bairn? A demon trained to stop demons and protect her friends. This is a great story, twists and turns, lots of blood and gore, and a mysterious shadow in her mind for which she cannot get a hold of yet. Not recommended to those under 14. Highly recommended to those who love this kind of genre.
