Hello, vampires. Even before Bram Stoker they were supposed to represent lusty, greedy and melancholic creatures

That's kind of the point.

Although, it's target audience is horny girls, so idk if it could really be called rape. Everybody wants it to happen.

And they're all bloodsucking demons as well..

Everyone wants it to happen...except Pancake Bitch-chan. At this point any affection she shows will be a result of Stockholm Syndrome. Not that I'm judging it, but I'm just gonna eye roll if they try to bring in romance later.

It's just your classic case of lazy writing.

If she wanted it in the beginning, there wouldn't be any need for plot progression or development (i.e., they'd actually have to try to write an interesting story). So they make her not want it in the beginning.

But they still have to think about the target audience. And they want to see Mr. Sexy vampire be sexy.

What to do? Easy! Make that the point of conflict! You have your plot right there! Sexy vampire boys hit on a girl who doesn't want it. And over time, she learns their tragic back stories, and falls in love with one of them. The conflict is resolved because she no longer doesn't want it. Bam! You have your plot arc!

It's a simple rinse and repeat formula used for almost every harem (or reverse harem) in existence.

Oh, they're not raping her or forcing her to be their girlfriend. You're just interpreting things in the wrong way.

It IS rapey... Even if it's not actually rape, the drinking scenes in the second episode made me uncomfortable. But they are vampires so it wasn't unexpected (for me at least) that they actually drink human blood and are not some vegan-vampires or something.

The sarcasm is strong with this one.
1. It's anime. 2. Their clothes don't come off. 3. No penetration *forgive the pun*
Of course it's not rape, but this is nearing Boku no Pico territory.

This show appeals to a certain audience and people with complaints are not in the target audience. I've been a fan of Diaboilk Lovers for quite awhile so I already expected the way the anime was going to turn out.

Ok. It's pretty obvious I'm watching this as a complete newb to the genre. So for people who have played the game, heard the drama CD's, I'm not asking for spoilers, but what is the characteristics of the target audience? Serioulsy. What is the thought process required to enjoy this kinda series. I'm understanding BL/Yaoi better than this genre.

The target audience is masochist women. The game/drama CD are for people who get off on the idea of being completely dominated and abused. By the end of the game Yui is completely and utterly emotionally, physically and sexually abused by these guys until she "falls in love" with them. You are walked thru her physiological break down in the game. For me I played it as a study of the psychology of abusive relationships. Initially I didn't know what I was getting into I decided to play the game because it had seiyuu I liked and "Oh my gosh vampires!".

The game/drama CDs are worse than the anime by far. I feel bad for all the girls walking into this series thinking it's going to be some fun sexy vampire romance.

Do they even make it aware that it's abuse or do they pretend it's perfectly normal?

It's just another game with a specific fetish targeting a specific group. Non-con? Fetish.. Vampires? Fetish..

Targets towards S/Ms and vampire likers... The fear of constantly wondering, 'are they going to attack me, when will I be drank from next?'

And wanting to try to escape but too scared of being punished...

Other than that it's not so different from any other otome game:

Characters with distinct, but stereotypical personalities? Check.

Sad back stories? Check

Romance? Twisted? Yes. But it's there.

Also, like the anime Amnesia, which is also based on a game by Idea Factory,

This anime probably won't follow any specific 'route' for any character... So, you'll just end up with a watered down, messed around anime with no resolution.

Which is why I hate it when they make an anime out of a visual novel, because it doesn't follow any specific 'path' and is just awful... Like what they did to Togainu no Chi, except TnC was even worse because they didn't even leave the Yaoi in it

The story is originally about 6 twisted , and sadistic vampire brothers who will make the heroine Yui Komori in to a complete masochist , with torturing and blood sucking, until she starts enjoying it -becoming either their "Sacrificial bride"(a human that live forever for the sole purpose to feed the vampire clan leader) or join them as a vampire bride.
Yet torture and pain will never end.

Diabolik lovers episodes are short because its a otome game that became so popular it was adapted in to an anime.

Not just rape vibes honestly
something quite close to actual rape, I'd even call it sexually abusive.

The VN is actually as equally fucked as the show itself, except for the fact that it has numerous routes and endings like all otome games too. I read them once for the lulz, was some screwed up shit.

As much as I want my masochistic ass to be able to get into something involving male dominance, I'm completely disgusted by how little effort is put into Dialovers and how disgusting it can be, as well as the sheer stupidity of the characters and the fact that the plot wanders aimlessly through a maze of empty nothingness without attempt to establish itself. It's a wreck all around. The only thing I can say appeals is the art, but even that is ruined by the flimsy production and weak attempts to pander to women by including a weakling squealer of a female protag who can essentially act as a stand in for someone's fantasy, but the show doesn't evoke any fantasy for me at all, it's that horrid.
