Blood Lad[Review]
Sun Oct 20, 2013 7:38 pm
Vampires. Vampire-themed series are not new nowadays. Blood Lad is one of them. I first encountered Blood Lad on a manga site, the art on it really pulled me in. Its comedic feel didn't left me hanging in the air too. So I kinda expected a lot in the anime.
The story revolves around Staz, an otaku-vampire who's obsessed about Japan. He also happens to be a territory boss in the world of demons. One day a girl named Yanagi Fuyumi, a female Japanese high-school girl ended up in Staz's territory. Staz being the one who's obsessed about Japan quickly took the advantage of talking to her. But during their conversation, someone is trying to capture Staz's territory. Staz succesfully defends his territory, but left Fuyumi unguarded. She died then turned into a ghost. Staz then made a promise to Fuyumi that he'll turn Fuyumi back to human. So that's basically what the plot is.
The art is undoubtly great, like I've been saying on most of my reviews; we rarely see ugly nowadays. And Blood Lad is no exception.
As for the music. Opening theme was made by May'n which brought us a lot of good OST's. The ending wasn't half bad too. The series contains only 10 episodes, so they didn't bother changing the opening or ending theme.
The characters turned out pretty good too! Seiyuus who voiced some of the characters really suited them. They were perfect for them.
Blood Lad is quite short if you ask me, 10 episodes weren't enough to fill me up. Well the good thing is that its quite longer than the translated manga on the net. They added a couple of scenes to the story in the anime though. It progressed a little bit different. I enjoyed Blood Lad, it was definitely a good watch for me. A little action and a comedic series once in a while is what I needed these days. I loved how they kept the fan service at minimal. Too much fanservice almost always destroy a lot of good series. But it the end, Blood Lad shows a lot of potential in terms of being a great action-packed series. There were quite a few scenes which shows Blood Lad has a chance of having romance in it. I just hope they make the second season better, and a little bit longer than 10 episodes. For me, Blood Lad was finally reaching its peak then it was ended on the tenth episode. I was truthfully disappointed how short the series came out. I gave Blood Lad an 8, maybe a 9 if it was longer. So have fun watching Staz's comedic acts!
(Overall Score : 8/10)
