Worth what? No offence but it's not like the manga is any better either....


I think you are being a bit harsh. I admit that the manga is not a masterpiece but compared to some of the crap I have read it's definitely above average.

Mina seems so downgraded in the anime as compared to the manga.

Mina looks to be made into something bad to be evolved but from the looks of it she was never bad but always better from what people say. This is all probably for character evolve....guess it's failure here.

It's 'FINALLY' getting something... the first 2 episodes were totally useless. Damn SHAFT, I feel like watching Moon Phrase right now.

Disturbing OP as usual. I'm ok with loli attraction or bunch of flower snapshots, but that dancing since is way off. Though, art direction was beautiful indeed for the most of scene.

Mixing mina politics scene and Akira run away was clever, as expected from SHAFT.

Though, I need more... this is too generic.

i think its nice how they weaved the school thing into the story, i just hope the school stuff doesn't turn out to be the focus of things from here on. i haven't read but maybe a chapter of the manga so i dont know how horrible of a job they are doing in adapting it but for what i'm seeing, i can't really complain about anything. this will be a show (at least for now) that i look forward to every week.

Sooo.... To be honest, I didn't think I'd like this. XD I hated Bakemonogatari, the first anime I watched by SHAFT. So when I heard this was done by SHAFT, everyone was like OMG YAAAY, I was like Omg, nooo. ;___;
I generally enjoy Shaft works so I was excited when I found out the show combine both Shaft and vampires....
but I'm not really enjoying the show. Its okay, but I find everything pretty uninteresting so far. Still waiting for it to get better -_-"
Oh and btw, Bakemonogatari is the best SHAFT anime there is, and I don't care if people say "But Zetsubou Sensei ..!", because I haven't seen it : D (And it wouldn't be more epic than Bakemonogatari anyway, because there's no Senjougahara there)

Bringing it back to this topic... I was rather thrilled hearing that SHAFT were behind this one, though as soon as I heard they were going to pull an "anime original", my hopes were more or less drowned : <

P.S. in case there are angry mods around, looks I shortened it down with a spoilertag ^^;

Is the manga that good?
And it's pretty nice to have an original story, right? I mean, if they'd just animate what you've already read, then it'd be kinda boring. XD Now you're getting a whole new story! :D

Yes.

Anyway, manga into anime, no it's not boring, as long as the manga behind it is awesome.
Bakemonogatari is also awesome.
Other stuffs by SHAFT? Bakemonogatari, really, just that takes SHAFT to the skies ^^

Lastly, don't underestimate Mina's plans, she's not just any vampire after all~

Sadly for me , I am a fan of the manga , as I rather find it to have a firm plot with less.. cliche characters.

I am simply trying to accept this as an Alternative Universe of the original Bund - I will make sure to give it another 2 episodes before I consider dropping it - But to me this is as I said Anime Only Alt Uni~ That way I can look at it not as the anime but as its own separate thing.. but *shrug* To say I have been disappointed would be accurate.

This is true. In fact the best anime adaptions are usually the ones that follow the manga loyally.

Wait, harem in DitVB? No way! But if i think about it, they already changed ~76% of manga story so they could even go with harem in anime...

Oh and francis, I didn't ask for opinions, I stated the truth.
Still, as Orochi says.. Since they've changed so much from the original, it wouldn't really be surprising =.='

Not bad I suppose. I'll give it more time. I understand that she's much older than she appears. But I'd appreciate it if they kept the loli parts out of my face a bit more.

Lol I'm starting to like this. Mina Tepes is such a beautiful person. Well I'm not a pedophile or anything but she is a vampire so she's older than anyone of us. I wonder why she likes Akira so much. Are they like lovers when they were young or something?

Okay so the president of the council got raped by unknown creatures in school, lmfao. Also, it seems to be that Yuki knows something about Akira's past. I bet Yuki's going to be like the slayer of the werewolves and vampires, lol.

Yeah that rape/death scene was weird. And considering how many cliches they dropped on us (Mina going to school. The "X use THAT" phrase, the everyone go after MC plot device, It can't be helped (think they said that twice) and of course super powerful student council) I would not be surpirsed.
