Mixed Feelings
Let me just first say that Saya Kisaragi is BADA$$. Not since Kite has there been a deadly femme fatale donning a school-girl uniform who can shed copious amounts of blood with one swift stroke of her cutlery.

Let me also add that we get to see Saya naked, which was simultaneously exciting and disturbing. The reason it was disturbing is because she's wearing a high school uniform, which means she's underage, right? I felt a little pervy to be honest. Okay, fine. A lot pervy. Lets move on…

Story: 6. The story is essentially about a girl named Saya seeking revenge on a villain who previously conducted human experiments on her. To be completely honest, I didn't quite understand the rest. And frankly, I don't care. The whole movie just felt wayyy too long and drawn out. 90% of the time, I was asking, "Are they going stop talking and fight yet?"

As for the fight scenes, beginning action was compelling. In fact, it was down right fantastic! I was like, dayum, this is going to be good! Unfortunately, aside from the beginning and the end, there wasn't much action to write home about. What a let down!

Art: 9. Perhaps the greatest strength of this movie is its art. It was beautifully done. For something that aired in 2012, it totally rivals/bests some of the anime that is coming out today. In particular, the final showdown/fight had (IMHO) a great blend of CG which was vaguely reminiscent of a moment in the game God of War. Even the car chases were pretty compelling.

Enjoyment: 6. I enjoyed the first 15 minutes. Was bored for 1 hour. And then enjoyed the last 15 minutes. So my recommendation is to save an hour of your life and just watch the beginning and ending, and you'll have a good grasp of Blood-C: The Last Dark.
