Some say it's awesome, while others say that it's a complete piece of shit.
Different opinions? Humans are really weird. Well, it's ALWAYS like that.

Zapp is live, Zapp is love - what a great character.

Also, Rider seiyū making an appearance, this show is getting better and better.

There's no way someone who can't even protect himself can protect anyone else, is there?

I liked it. This show is surprising!
I laughed so hard at Abrams and Zapp. Vampires look interesting here.

I kind of feel this series doesn't know what to do with the lore so they just don't tell you much and keep things vague. Still love the animation, characters and humor though.

I loved this series up until now, but this episode dragged in all the childish shounen tropes (even though this is labeled seinen) like posturing and smack-talking in combat, and convenient forced monologue plot expositions, I'd rather not cringe my way through any more of that teenager-bait.

But I'll put it on hold and hopefully the stupidity dies down later, and I'll pick it back up.

Is this vampire stuff just gonna be like an arc of the series or is it gonna be the main plotpoint? With how the anime was introduced back in the first episode I thought it would be an all round monster type show but for some reason it feels like it's gonna mainly be about vampires and ignore the rest of the monsters/creatures/whatnots. Hopefully I'm wrong.

the main plot of the anime is about the ghost girl and those two twin blond kids, none of which are in the manga
the plot in the manga uses the Blood Breeds as "boss battles", basically, where they'll run into a really formidable one every few volumes. The story doesn't really focus on them though.

There better be a well connected story out of all this mess, so far the anime has amazing art, characters, and action, yet it lacks a good story or actually it lacks ANY STORY.

Vampires now join the tribe of weird creatures, lets see how will Leo deal with them (or with their leader specifically)

If the fight had lasted at least a few more minutes before the arrival of Klaus; I had no complaints against moving episode. Pleasant, less comedy in the story and a lot more seriously, even so I like it. I look forward to the next episode.

Really cool episode ... vampires huh? They seem to be super duper strong :O Kinda wish the fight lasted a bit longer though ... cool how Klaus sealed them using the Elder's name but still, I wish we could've seen Abrams in action :( "Lucky" guy that he is he IS supposed to be the expert ... I think it's pretty funny how he avoids disaster though XD
BGM was great this episode as always. Leo seems to be using his eyes more and more ... dang, there are a LOT of vamps down there O_O Luckily they don't seem to be doing anything but ... yeesh, scary stuff :S His conversation with that other vampire (I think) on the subway and, well, that guy seems to be talking to Kemp or however you spell it ... :O

Blitz T. Abrams's luck is totally hilarious and full of disaster!
both Starphase and K. K. were awesomely cool out there! (gigaelectric & deepfreeze) cool powers!
and of course with the help of Leonardo's God Eyes, b0ss takes care of the kyuuketsuki and finishes them off!
did zapp do anything??? all he does were whines!
5/5.

I'm constantly taken aback by the incredible creativity in this series, you cannot go a minute of this show without getting a barage of crazy out of this world designs or set pieces. The creativity in all the NPC's of different species alone is insanely detailed

It helps that the show itself is actually enjoyable as hell to boot, zapp is by far the funniest character this season

The animation is great as it the soundtrack. The rest is a bit of a mess. Its almost like they are trying to cram too much into one episode. It jumps around like a bag of ferrets with virtually no character or story development. I'm struggling to stick with it but hope it gets better.

Meh another boring episode. Everything was sh*t, boring characters and most them behave like clowns, boring and short action, the humor is not funny at all, and the story is difficult to understand.

I still don't know what is the story is about. I wish if someone give summary of the story.

It just keeps being fun, really. Zapp's still my favorite character so far of course, though the others aren't bad either. Looking forward to the rest. Want to see that Fujiwara character already.


Are you serious ? There is like 10 if not more anime in this season that are 10 times better than this shit. Even Triange X (an echii anime) have far better story and action and it is much more fun to watch than this. Of course some people will blindly hate it just because it has echii tag. I will not even bother to compare it to Arslan Senki, Sidonia no Kishi, Jojo or Owari no Seraph. Any of these are like 100x better than this silly anime

Also, Zapp is one of the worse character in this season. He look and behaves like clown.

How did Klaus seal them? I'm assuming they got the names from that paper (off-screen)? And, by having that name, they're able to seal the person away?

You might wanna watch the train scene again, Klaus asked Leo to get their names. Also, knowing the "true name" as a weapon has been frequently used in fantasy fictions, including D&D.

You're the clown I guess! why don't you drop this anime instead watching and posting your hate toward this anime over per each ep, don't you try to read everyone comment at all even though they don't read the manga their have the feeling its was rushed and yep its true it was "rush" they cram everything in one ep are you happy now.
I just hope next ep it wont become like this again.

That's pretty much "asking". Also, "Hey Leo, get da names!" isn't cool enough.

The whole episode was about the vampires and their names. Investigating the chopped hand was for the names, the travel to the giant tree was for the names, and the names are what? Their weakness.

Yep that's what what Klaus said. I'm also assuming that Leonardo got their name off-screen but not from the paper. I think he got the iinfo on the vampires before the train even entered the station:

  • Abrams said that the Elders don't want their real name found because their name contains power.
  • After the incident with the elder's hand, Abrams said that Leonardo eyes were affected in such a way that he could now see stuff out of normal range.
  • By the end of the episode when we got back to Leo's encounter with White's brother in the train, he said that Leo must already know his name most likely because of his eyes.

I don't think Leo attempted to read the paper again. It's more like from afar he was able to get the vampires aura, their names, weaknesses, and even which one was the real Elder and not. When Klaus got there he could not only pinpoint the vampires exact location (before we saw that the camera couldn't even catch them), but he also knew which one of them was the elder (the woman) which one was "made" (the guy he killed on sight) and then sealed the woman. I think Leonardo's "oversensitive" eyes did most of the work there.
Now I wonder if that out-of-range side effect is stuck with Leonardo's eyes from now on.

Vampires? Damn, I hoped for something fresher.
Also I don't think Klaus is all that interesting, so this much emphasis on his supposed awesomeness puts me off.
And I must agree, that I'd like to see a better battle.

Still pretty, still nice music. The (un)lucky guy is hilarious.

I hope the worldbuiding will get clearer. I am fine with fast pacing and slow worldbuilding, but it's not fun to always get things thrown in out of nowhere.

Edit: Oh, and also I am glad that the other guys from Libra aren't unbeatable after all.

I feel like this episode was way too rushed and muddled. There was enough content for at least two episodes, and it all gets kind of lost in the mayhem. Also, vampires? Really? Whatever, at least they're properly threatening vampires. The highlight of this episode for me was Abrams, though, such an entertaining character! He was great.

Damn, Leo's eyes started bleeding. Klaus, however, shows he's still freakin' badass.
I wonder how White and the King of Despair are related.
