#BLOOD SONG RATING SERIES#

Tl dr - it's harem, don't expect interesting or insightful characters. But it doesn't really matter because most of the time they are on screen they just get destroyed by Kojou. The villains are, in general, awful and almost completely one dimensional. I think Himeragi Yukina probably has the best developed character, and she actually has some development/ perspective added, although this is also stunted because of the harem nature of the show. The girls are all quite distinct and well developed, apart from their at times inexplicable devotion to Kojou (but then again, harem). But the fact that I have an opinion is evidence for him actually having a character (which is more than can be said for certain animes in similar genres). I don't particularly like Kojou, and I found him a bit overly simplistic. This is no surprise given the escapism theme (/self insert theme).

Kojou is (axiomatically) fairly likable and for most people easy to relate to. Kojou isn't meant to be super charismatic so it fits the plot, but its nothing to write home about.Ħ/10 - The characters are ok, given that the pretense of the show is to break character models and focus on action and harem. The voice acting here is good as far as I can tell.

They are not something I'd personally want to listen to outside of the show, alongside the background music, but they contribute pretty much as you'd expect them too. I thought the OPs were fine, as were the endings. I can't really think of many negatives here - perhaps some money was saved on certain designs but in my opinion the art here almost makes the show.ħ/10 - Like most modern animes, there really isn't much to comment on here as its just simply decent. The art style is certainly easy on the eyes, and the sequences often fit the anime well. are well done and ultimately are very effective. The characters designs, as well as the background and effects for fights, etc.

Overall I think the plot serves its function quite well, but because the plot is obviously going to be side-lined in such a series there is a limit to how good it is.ĩ/10 - Probably the anime's best point is the art. Without wanting to give too much away, I think certain plot devices were quite clever. But that's fine because that's why people will watch the show in the first place. The story does work for the genre(s) in mind here - pretty much the plot will be bent to better accommodate scenes where Kojou can be a hero or save the girl or can get into a better fight. I'm not sure if some of the satire or irony that came across was intended, but if it was then I tip my hat to the writers. I'd call it overly simplistic - however actually for a show that I watched to just distract myself for an hour or so I found this to be a positive. There are some overall trends and developments but its nothing special. The story works in arcs, with new villains/ girls being added or focused on in each arc. Strike the blood's strong point is not going to be its plot. a whole so your interest should be fairly easy to gauge early on.ħ/10 - as expected, the story isn't outstanding, it simply does its job here.

I also think that the first few episodes are quite representative of the series as It's a straightforward anime you can get some escapism/ good sequences out of (be them of the girls or of the action). One of the things to appreciate here is that what you see is what you get. If you want to watch a normal guy who stumbles upon ridiculous powers and then proceeds to save the world and get a lot of female attention then here you go. The tags 'Action, Ecchi, Fantasy, School, Shounen, Vampire, Supernatural' actually summarize the show pretty well, with the exception of 'school' perhaps.
