Woah woah, this was a great first episode- very exciting & intriguing & leaves me wanting more. The animation is beautiful as well, I like the style. I'm excited for this series, now I just have to wait for the next episode to finish downloading... >_>;

No they won't because we deleted them. Opening a discussion topic just to say 'Discussion of episode X' is considered spam. At least talk about the episode, reserving topics this way to say they're 'your threads' doesn't work.

I've got a feeling I'm going to like this. Lately, I've been watching all the really highly ranked animes and forgetting that there are a lot of good ones that aren't that high; hopefully this anime will help me break out of that.

This!!!!!!!!!! The art work, as well as the animation, is great too. Like the OP/ED, soundtrack, and other general sound effects... the sensei D:

Was pretty surprised when the monster handed guy initially started walking towards Saya and then pulled out the knife, also the Chiropteran breaking the door. ^^;

Hmm, the first episode of the anime was "meh" for me. I like the way the manga started a bit better, but I'm not by any means trying to say that the episode was bad :D I just didn't feel the punch since it was delivered to me by manga already.

5/5

Check out calm but in progression, plot and narrative seem really to my liking, nothing exaggerated and tossed in for good measure. Despite its age, this production is excellent both technically and graphically!
For now deserves a rating of 5/5! * _ *

This is my 'n'th time watching this show, and I can't help but come back to again and again. Great starting episode. Wish I had the opportunity to post my initial thoughts the first time I ever watched this show, but that was over 7 years ago, and the details are vague.

Lmao. You wouldn't normally expect karma pay you back 10 fold though, and to be killed just for scaring someone though.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

This was... good. Better than good. I wasn't sure about this anime (I guess Twilight destroyed the vampire genre for everyone).

But I'm a sucker for calm-strong-mysterious-maybe_evil-protective-tall-with_long_hair kind of character (think Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji, Soubi fom Loveless, Yoite from Nabari No Ou, Shirogane from Monochrome Factor, Haruka from Tactics, Luka Crosszeria from Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitteiru... If anyone has any other recommendations, I'll be forever grateful :D). So I already like that guy.

And that kiss? Gave me goose bumps (and I'm a 26 yo female). Yeah, I'm incurable, I know. And from the beginning I got the feeling that Saya is... ummm... different. Is she a vampire? o.O

Anyway, great first episode. I hate when they take like 10 episodes to just present the characters without anything actually happening. It gets really boring really fast. This one here, just kind of trows you into the plot. I feel that I'm gonna like this.

Except the usual stupid japanese rules (don't play catch in a deserted park) that always tick me off, and the "oof i'm safe, i locked the door, i can close my eyes the monster won't come", it was a very strong start.
And although i usually dislike these types of "power-up" kisses, this one actually makes sense because it was indeed the easiest way to make her swallow blood.
On to episode 2.

Well, that wasn't the most romantic situation for a kiss, but I guess that will do.

The serie seem interesting. There's a lot of action going on and even though there is some obvious annoying CGI from time to time, the quality doesn't seem bad.

some enjoyably ominous scenes in the latter half of the episode. but wasn't really pulled in that well by the story overall. but it has potential, so we'll see

a 5 or 6/10 to start
