| I've been interested in this series for a long time, but I've never got around to reading it. Today, I happened to read the reviews on MAL (and some elsewhere), and everyone seems to agree that they're really poorly written. However, a lot of people seem to like the premise and story; they just hate the writing. What do you think? Is the series worth it, or is the writing as awful as people say? Thanks in advance! |

But as the supreme fleet admiral who leads entire fleets, he's really a godly person. Don't you think so, too? Müller said: I think he's quite godly as a groom, too. |
| Nope. They are good if you're 14 years old. Novells have a great setting, but poor language and boredom narrative. First book is worst, the next are better. |
| Thanks for the reply! Perhaps I'll read them one day, but for now I'll stick with things that are actually good. Thanks again :) |

| @NERigby96 Those two reviewers clearly have no idea about what they are saying. Seriously, don't trust them. It has a quite good score(8.13) here in myanimelist and in goodreads too: https://www.goodreads.com/series/59384-vampire-hunter-d This is a masterpiece and I'm loving every line of text of it. I really recommend it especially if you like vampires. |

| I personally really like this series. I've always been a fan of dark fantasy and the series feature a lot of cool elements and dark characters. Also, I think the writing is okay. I think the idea of "bad writing" has been spreading really fast and it feels that people are saying that because they were influenced to. There are best sellers out there with terrible writing and everybody says they're good. So, I think it's a matter of saying what others expect you to say. If you are interested in reading the first volume do it, don't care what other people say. Only you can know for yourself. |
