I'm loving it. For 90% of the episode I was hoping that zero would beat the carp out of Kaname. The remaining 10% was Loving the ZeroxYuuki senes!

Great episode, a really promising start. I think Guilty will be better than the first season.

Yuuki's eyes? WTF.
Long haired Yuki was awesome (in the OP) and the ED is awesome.
Overall, it's just like last season, but I enjoyed the Zero x Yuuki scene :\

LOL Def. noticed that right from the start. even for anime standards her eyes were freakishly large. When she started crying i could help but laugh and think oh no she's leaking!!! she's going to drain herself of all her fluids!!

1st season OP< 2nd season OP
1st season ED > 2nd season ED

Newayz a pretty good start. it's starting way better than the last ended and hopefully it will keep up at a good pace. I was always annoyed with how Yuuki teased Zero in the series and the manga. this time we got a lil teasing from Zero! oww!! "never mind" lol if that isn't a burn i don't know what is.

It was a strong start to the second season. It recaped some of the important events from last season and still managed to remain great in it's own right. It din't waste muh time getting to the point either. Can't wait for the next few episodes where things really start happening.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the new opening or ending, although the first season's definitely was better.

Tbh, I think the animation was on par with some of the later episodes of the first season. Either way I don't understand how people can say the animation got better.

I second the damage done by ZERO. Indeed finally he fights more and we get to SEE THAT!

At very first I was thinking, "maybe, maybe it got better...?" and then the OP played, and I realized the truth. But I don't think it got worse; I think it's just as bad as last season.

angel999 said:
IS IT ME OR ED IS MORE ECCHI THAN LAST ONE???????????
I would not consider the ED as ecchi at all. If you'd like an ecchi series playing this season, I'd refer you to Rosario+Vampire.

YungInfamouz said:

If you're referring to the emo-ness of this series as gay, that's never going to disappear. And the directors/writers just seem to draw out the emo aspects of all the characters like fillers... If you're talking about characters being gay, none of them are.

First episode was alright. If I get the time, I'd like to watch the season through, just to see if I get some of the scenes I want animated, animated well. But this is definitely not a priority for me in a season otherwise full of potentially good series.

The episode for this season seemed to have the same feel as last season, and that makes me rather happy. Admittedly the opening theme isn't quite as catchy as the first one, but it's still decent. The ending theme on the other hand is just plain creepy. Not that the last one wasn't, but this one's just added a whole new level of creepiness to it. I mean, butterfly wings made out of blood? Sheesh.

Although I enjoyed both the opening and ending, I prefer the ones from the previous season. I think this season got off to a good start though.

I'm really looking forward to seeing more of Kaname, although I get the feeling I'm probably in the minority regarding that.

I've read manga and knew at the yuukiXZero scene that zero was gonna stop, but i was still like "AMG so close!". I've been wondering who i liked more with yuuki but now that i see how zero is starting too love yuuki and kaname just being a bitch...'

Altought i like the scene where he said smth with "The power you had to protect yuuki was because of my blood in ur veins, so it's like im still protecting her"...haha owned :P

I'm not an opening or ending lover anyway, did see em but they are fine too me cause gonna skip em later anyway :P

Really, they could have done a better op and ed. I hope they change both of them very soon. Anyway, it was a good episode but I think the plot is going very slow or I just want to watch them straightaway. xD Ah, I love that angry modes of Kuran Kaname! (For example, that tree scene. Ichijou scared to death after that. xD) And one negative point about the series, there is a big gap between the manga's art and the anime's art. If I hadn't read the manga, I wouldn't love Kuran Kanama so much. Anime's art is so simple when you compare it to the manga's art. Whatever, I want to watch other episodes immediately. O.O

The animation didn't really get better. I get the feeling they even tried to make as little animation as possible in the OP and ED. That is kinda disappointing since the songs are pretty good (so much as the last songs), but not surprising.

What I like about the second season is the far better character design in close up frames. Kaname and Zero look as good as in the manga. Finally!!!! Unfortunately this doesn't aply to Yuuki. Is that fanservice for all the female VKG fans? The guys look better, but the girls are neglected in the character design.

What does "Guilty" mean anyway? Any reason or meaning behind the word?

Now Zero is guilty and sentenced to death for killing Shizuka. So maybe it's related to that. I'm not sure though. o.O

Its nice that the show seems to pick up where it stopped and has the same feel as last season (although its been so long i kinda forgot wtf was going on). Seems like it will be pretty cool, with the Council starting to send people to assassinate Zero and everything. looking forward to it.

Oh and blah blah op and ed sucked etc etc. don't really care but everyone else seemed to comment on it so i thought i would follow the trend :D

That could be. It would make sense... I wonder what is so bad about naming it as a second season. Calling it VK Guilty seems like a lame attemp to make us belive that it's a complete new series XD (I am strict, aren't I *muhahahaha*)

I don't know but I did not like this episode as much as I did the first one of the first season. Also I did not like the OP as much but I liked the ED more than last seasons. I want to give this season more time cause I think if it follows the manga closely it will end up being just as good.

I do not why .. but I lost the excitement watching the second season ... not like the first ...

Maybe because the character now is a bit lame to ... there is nothing new ... if like this, there is no point in creating second season ...

Well im downloading episode 1 right now but let me just say right off the bat that I really was not very impressed with Season 1. I watched it a while back so I dont remember the details but I do remember that the writing and characters were not very good and you kinda knew that at some point or another Kuran is going to turn evil. On the other hand I do have to say that I was moderately impressed with the unique setting (school with a class full of vampires) and its also unique because it is one of the few animes out there where there are actually more male characters than female (of course that raises the question if that is a good thing or not? ^_^) The main two voice actors, Miyano Mamoru (Yamagami Light), and Horie Yui (Ayu from Kannon, Naru Narusegawa from Love Hina, Tohru Honda from Fruits Baskets, and many more) do a wonderful job and so too do all the other voice actors.

Anyway im hoping that this second season does a better job and now it looks like its finished so lets begin.

Comments made while watching:

-Oh hey the Zerg, I mean Schoolgirl swarm is back! I forgot about them ^_^, Live for the swarm...er for Aidou-senpai :D

-Hey Zero's back, I thought he was killed by Suzaku...oh wait different guy...

-Thats looks like Kaname's jealous face, granted all his faces look pretty much the same but im guessing he is giving Zero his jealous face...yup we are going with that.

-Im guessing the opening theme was written after eating nachos and playing Castelvania. (Please dont ask me how I came up with that, im not quite sure myself and that kind of scares me.)

-We pledge allegiance to the flag of Kaname-sama... (after listening to his request)

-You sick girl, you WANTED him to have a drink didnt you?

-"Sticking your neck out for me." Not sure if the pun was intentional but I laughed a bit.

-Thank you Maria-san for giving us the basic plot of season 2 in the first episode...

-They still have yet too explain how Yuuki can jump that high if she is just a normal, albeit and athletic, human girl.

-"Hello young lady, is this Cross Academy?" No this is Pizza Hut.

-Zero's timing is perfect as always.

-Oh yeah I forgot, Zero drank Kaname's blood and is therefore much more powerful than he was in season 1...oh hooray!

-Yuuki, dont piss off Kaname, if he ever decides that you arent worth it, your screwed!

"The only reason you are able to protect Yuuki is because of my blood" Wow Kaname sure knows how to press just the right buttons.

-Yuuki, why did you decide to dry your hair in the living room in front of the sofa that Zero happened to be sleeping on?

Post episode comments:

Well I have to say the first episode of this season did a pretty good job, I mean it assumes that you saw the ending of Season 1 but if you are watching Season 2 first then thats on you. Looks like the plot has been basically layed out but if the story has improved from last season then I would expect at least a few twists but time will tell, on to episode 2.
