Rosario to Vampire

Youkai Academy is a seemingly normal boarding school, except that its pupils are monsters learning to coexist with humans. All students attend in human form and take normal academic subjects, such as literature, gym, foreign language, and mathematics. However, there is one golden rule at Youkai Academy—all humans found on school grounds are to be executed immediately!

Tsukune Aono is an average teenager who is unable to get into any high school because of his bad grades. His parents inadvertently enroll him into Youkai Academy as a last-ditch effort to secure his education. As Tsukune unknowingly enters this new world, he has a run-in with the most attractive girl on campus, Moka Akashiya. Deciding to stay in the perilous realm in order to further his relationship with Moka, he does not realize that beneath her beauty lies a menacing monster—a vampire.

Rosario to Vampire is a supernatural school comedy that explores Tsukune's romantic exploits, experiences, and misadventures with a bevy of beautiful but dangerous creatures.

Rosario + Vampire is a very entertaining, cute, and at times comedic harem/romance anime. Unlike with most shows in this genre, the male protagonist has a rather commendable and likeable character, through his dedicated and loyal love towards his girlfriend and friends, resilient nature, and motivation to protect those he cares for. I like the show's themes of acceptance and friendship/love beating human or "monster" vices such as greed for power, bigotry, lust, etc. To me the show is representative of the inner "monster" in people that can be overcome by good. That said, every episode in this series has a very similar formula. It ... may make the show very predictable at times, but ultimately it works well for the story line it strives to portray. I also absolutely adored the characters and the dynamics between them, as well as the art style and animation. Love the late 2000s anime style. The rough and budget animation adds to it! Give it a try, 9/10 from me (partly from the nostalgia).

Mixed Feelings

Rosario to vampire, is an anime and manga series written by Akihisa Ikeda; which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2004 or 2006 I think, an anime adaptation was made by studio Gonzo, in 2008, but how can I say the manga adaptation was fucking ruined by the TV series. And the analysis will cover both seasons of this shit.

First I want to talk about the protagonist Tsukune Aono, who in the manga is awesome and in the anime is a jerk. This shit simply has no charisma, no backstory that's worth it, it's not trash, but in terms of charisma he's far from ... being a Shiba Tatsuya by Mahouka Koukou No Rettousei , or a Natsu from Fairy Tail if you try too hard, I find the character too irritating. Now talking about Kurumu Kurono, I think she is simply the best character in the anime, mostly because she has blue hair, I think her personality reminds me a lot of Asuna from Sword Art Online, I don't know why.She is a character who is docile, kind, but sometimes she is very cheeky because she is a succubus and I love her very much, the best character in Rosario To Vampire. Now talking about Moka Akashiya, I think the personality of the one with pink hair is cute, but I like the one with white hair much more, she is a very badass heroine. I won't even comment on the other characters because they are so annoying, damn it, especially Moka's sister, she's so annoying. The animation of this shit is so ugly, it made me cry blood. But there are things that I liked, like some characters, but there are other things that make me question why I gave this shit an 8, and finally the second season became 100% romantic comedy and 0% action. And if there was a remake of the anime faithfully adapting the manga, it would be wonderful. The first season was ok but the second season was horrible. I recommend it only to those who want to be tortured. But otherwise it's a good anime.

*WARNING: THE FOLLOWING REVIEW WAS MADE BY A SICK BASTARD*

OHHH NOOO THE PANTIE GODS SHINE DOWN ON MEEE

Hey everyone, yours truly, Mysterious Friend here, back with another banger review for my small cult followers. *pantie shot* TELLL ME WHYYY are all the men in this show so fucking disgusting I mean seriously I thought it was so weird that for some reason all these girls in the show LOVE THE Main character! BUT BUT BUT *pantie shot* here's the thing that I found out while watching this AGREE OR DISAGREE but it makes sense why all the girls love the HUMAN Main charater you ... monster men out there; I know you're out there hiding among us humans in the world, but I yours truly will find you, *pantie shot* YOU ARE ALL SICK PERVERTED EVIL MEN.

I'm not kidding. Look at episode 5, you had the 3 men who stalked and took pictures and followed the girls around, and had their little hideout where they masturbated with each other to the female characters, then *pantie shot* one episode later, you have the senpai gin. who first I thought it was going to be a boys love episode with the main guy BOOM *pantie shot* turns out he was also a creep who took pictures of all the girls in the show AND THEN the NEXT EPISODE *pantie shot*...... i cant belive this but the teacher molester the girl WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE. This show is fucking nuts hell as I'm writing this, I remember that in the first episode the whole class said they wanted to do her. And after that every episode is a monster men attacking women I'm so serious dude *pantie shot* LIKE DAMN no wonder the human is getting laid every episode, you evil monsters are always trying to take advantage of them!

And my god is it BORINGGGGG so boring *pantie shot* GEEZ can you stop with the pantie shots is non stop *pantie shot* OH COME ON QUIT IT *pantie shot* *pantie shot**pantie shot* AHHHHHHHHHH AHHH ITS ATTACKING ME my eyessss! And don't forget about how repetitive this is, I'm not kidding, folks, if I spoil what happens in episode 1, then I would be spoiling every episode. They're all the same, I assure you.

I'm trying my best here to say something good about this, but I'm not into women being seen as objects, and well... that's *pantie shot* pretty much what this show is.

Can't do it, folks.*pantie shot* I wasn't expecting this, and personally, if you like this show, don't come near me, especially towards women. *pantie shot*
