Delico's Nursery

A scourge has descended upon vampire society in the form of serial murders. The killings appear unrelated at first glance, but every crime scene has one thing in common: a card left behind, bearing the words "True of Vamp"—the name given to the legendary progenitor of all vampires.

The Vlad Agency, a secret intelligence operation, summons the renowned aristocrat Dali Delico to lead the task force investigating the murders. However, Dali refuses, choosing to focus on raising his children. His old colleagues—Gerhard Fra, Henrique Lorca, and Dino Classico—plead with him to balance his duty to the agency with child-rearing. He agrees on one condition: the other three men must also care for their children during the investigation.

Dali's estate therefore becomes a nursery and the base of operations for the four noble vampires. Meanwhile, a criminal organization Dali knows all too well lurks in the shadows with evil intentions that threaten to cause the collapse of the entire vampire society.

Preliminary (9/13 eps)

This anime is too underrated, the best anime of the year so far!

Hot daddies and adorable children plus action? What more could you possibly ask for? These kids are too cute for this series to not be more popular, I love it! I wish there were more series like this, extremely unique with good world building. It is extremely unique and has b=many terms and concepts unique to its verse, I would love to see more stories in this verse. I did not find the story predictable in the way that it takes from the enjoyment of the series. All the characters are decently written ... for a 13 episode anime, and they all have personality and depth to them. The art style is charming and extremely fitting for the premise of the story, truly setting a vampire aristocrat setting. Dali is an endearing protagonist, that has proper motivations behind his action and comprehensible goodwill. The heroes in this story are not over righteous.

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (5/13 eps)

I'm not seeing what all the fuss is with the bad reviews. It's a mix between conspiracy mystery and child-rearing, and after watching 5 episodes, it's setting up all of the themes and plotlines in a nice manner. I wouldn't say it's *compelling* quite yet, but the children are adorable and realistic with each of them having their own issues that often come up in real-life parenting as well, and the audience slowly gains more information about the world through the parents dealing with the antagonist group.

The art is nice. It's unique and eye-catching. The animation is about what you would expect for such a ... detailed artstyle, but the few hiccups it has regarding some backgrounds and bg facial expressions is negligible.

If this was airing in the 2000's/early 2010's, people would love it, you all just have impossibly high standards. It's nothing special, but if you're into parenting as a genre, you'll like it.

Preliminary (3/13 eps)

Maan the name of TRUMP (True of Vamp) sure is unfortunate huh? But yknow what else is unfortunate?

The first 2 eps r kinda hard to get through. The constant sound of kids crying is one thing, i can get over it, but it combined with the anime treating these guys like incredible geniuses when they've said nothing of note + them being straight up horrible parents that i want to punt AND snobby aristrocrats to boot..... im struggling to care about any of these bitches, besides their children cuz they're cute, if a bit annoying but thats what kids are like no?

And it'd be fine ... if they were terrible abusive dads, if the anime didnt obviously want us to root for them, treatin their outbursts as silly and quirky rather than, yknow, things that will (and have) scarred their children for life. Like, i dunno, am i meant to laugh when a guy shouts at his toddler, makin him cry for Daring to need to go to the toilet? And when he's (forced) to go with him, he returns with him bnawling his eyes out again, so he probably shouted at him then some more.

I'm puttin it as mixed feelings cuz MAYBE? it'll get better and they'll start being better, more genuinely caring parents soon, and maybe the writing will stop sounding like it thinks we're as stupid as the kids themselves. But i'm not optimistic. They keep sayin exposition bits to eachother as if they're not all vampires that would or should know all this info.

The plot is a classic "there's murders happenin and we're tryna figure out whodunnit" except that we see whodunnit in ep 1, so its mostly about how the lads will figure out who it is. I like the character designs, they're pretty boys and i fw that. The animation is. Fine.

Idk man i struggle to say nice things about this anime so far, i'm puttin it on hold but i might not continue it.
