It's a strange anime from beginning to end.
A long time ago I watched the first four episodes and ended up abandoning it. At the time I found it extremely boring and monotonous, and I simply couldn't continue. Recently I decided to give it a second chance and finally watch it all the way through, but unfortunately my opinion hasn't changed much from the beginning.
The first four episodes continue to be a big problem. They are extremely drawn out, repetitive, and practically devoid of relevant events. The structure repeats itself almost identically: school routine, some interactions of little importance, and, in the end, a fight against some monster. This ends up making the beginning of the anime very predictable and tiresome. I even understand that these episodes serve to build the neces…

Not gonna lie, I went into Blood-C expecting something solid. I’m usually all for gore and intense fight scenes, and yeah, those parts actually delivered—especially toward the end. The final stretch was the only time it really got my attention, mainly because of the chaos, the bloodbath, and how brutal things got.
But man, everything before that? Just a struggle to sit through. The story felt all over the place, like it was trying to be deep or mysterious but ended up being confusing and flat. I found myself skipping through most of the convos, just waiting for something to happen. Honestly, I don’t even fully get what the plot was trying to do, and I gave up trying after a while.
The animation didn’t help either—some of it looked rough, even lazy in parts. Which is a shame, because the…

Not your traditional horror, maybe something more akin to an action thriller. Also, quite a lot of gory scenes, but they're welcome for me. Other than that, there's not much to say about this series, other than to have fun watching it, and not nit-pick on everything, because there's seriously no point.
(Yapping section) The story is very predictable and a little unpredictable at the same time, but I enjoyed it anyways because I'm quite a fan of action. Most of the characters were not too well developed and their personalities seemed quite peculiar and fake, but given that death is a recurring trend and other factors, it's safe to say that it really doesn't matter. If you like action, gore, what-not, this might be a refreshing watch for you. If you're trying to look for a good story however…

Blood-C is a dumb garbage series that thinks blood and gore and guts and stuff automatically equals good horror.
Okay, that's mean. But I really cannot drive home enough that this series's top priority is grossing the viewer out with gore first because it assumes that blood and guts is enough to make for effective horror. Blood-C is not scary. In fact, for most of the show, the episodes spend the majority of their time as slice of life school shenanigans before abruptly ending in a bloody action scene that wasn't built up to with suspense or mystery or anything that can make gory scenes scary. You need tension to be scared. The gore in Blood-C has no suspense or tension, so it's just gross at best. Scary is not the same thing as disgusting.
Not that it's impossible to balance slice of li…

Ah blood c yes, for example, if you don't read the synopsis or genre of this anime, I'm sure in the first 10 minutes you will be confused, it's like a sol comedy anime in general, but when it's over 10 minutes, it immediately changes its opinion, I didn't expect much from this anime because there were demons so I thought of demon slayer, but when I understood each clue that was given slowly, it turned out that there was a plot twist that was actually given even at the beginning of the story, overall I enjoyed this anime but the gore was too blatant, every part of the body that was destroyed or cut was described in detail, like the veins, bones, flesh, and it made me a little nauseous at the beginning, but as the story progressed I wasn't bothered by the gore because I was distracted by var…

Thank you Blood+ fans for voicing your discontent over how shit this is compared to the original. Based on that I decided I'd watch this one first and I have to say: it was really enjoyable! Saya and her little tunes were adorable, the action was good, watching people get brutally and violently ripped apart in every conceivable was gruesomely satisfying, the cast was serviceable (and the twins were pretty cute)
If you've never heard of Blood before and have a passing interest, give this one a try first. It's barely 6 hours long, and is worth it at least for the creative monster murders alone. Can't wait to see you guys on the Blood+ train!

Blood-C faces widespread criticism, but I found it to be a hidden gem. The aesthetics are visually stunning, the characters are engaging, and the action scenes are intense. It's a unique anime that, despite public opinion, I strongly recommend for its captivating blend of beauty, character depth, and adrenaline-pumping action. However, it's crucial to note that some scenes are notably gory and violent, which may not be suitable for everyone. Yet, these moments are not gratuitous; they serve a purpose within the narrative, adding depth to the story. Give it a chance, and you might discover the underappreciated charm of "Blood C."

Blood-C is the remake of Blood+, which is a remake of Blood the Last Vampire, which was a rehash of the old chicks with swords routine in half an hour. I have nothing against remakes, if they are done once every 20 years and try to offer something new to the table. Yet look at this; three iterations of the same premise in less than a decade? This is plain overkill and on top of that it was becoming worse with each new entry.
The bait of the show is that the drawings are done by CLAMP, the team of women who are famous for their spicy premises, taboo relations, and skinny tall pretty characters. It is present here as well, making the series 300% more kawai and anorectic than before. Everybody looks so cute and all; they even included a pair of identical twin girls, like those in xxxHolic in…

The story is terrible, along with everything else about it. Saya Kisaragi is the worst protagonist I've ever seen in anime. All her "efforts" to save others are for nothing, because she's terrible at everything. There isn't a single thing she's good at! The violence is over the top, and unnecessary. I usually find gore in anime as an added bonus to the story, art, and feel of the experience. Here, it's unneeded, unwanted, and makes the show harder to watch.
I wouldn't recommend this even to my worst enemy.
(Spoilers)
One of the things that ticked me off was in the school attack. As all her friends were getting slaughtered, Saya, the only person who can save everyone, was just watching it all happen, with her mouth gaping open! As and added kick to the balls, all the events of the anime…

Idk why it was THAT bad, imo it wasn't horrible. I mean first of all it's a VA cast that you can simp for.
The anime begged me to keep watching to figure out more about the lore, of course it ended up not telling you anything and just leave it up to imagination, but the plot twists and the character shifts were good. Saya was so well portrayed even though it's a little rush in the sense that, unfortunately we don't get to dive more into her personality as well as a possibly very rich backstory.
Same goes for the other characters, they really shined through in the last few episodes but again, back stories would've been really interesting. The other characters really delivered a punch and impact into the plot.
We have the lovely CLAMP universe crossover, the dog, which plays a "big…

I almost want to rate this higher than a 6 because there is some great Stuff in this Anime when it's not being boring as all hell. It's got some issues.
Lets start from the beginning, The first 4-5 episodes are mostly extremely, and I mean Painfully dull. Do you want to follow a schoolgirls mundane life at school as she walks to school singing awful songs and having boring mundane conversations with her friends at school for 15 minutes each episode? Because that's what you are going to get and its painful to watch.
Now the other 5 or so minutes an episode is all about some really cool action scenes where Shes fighting some cool looking monsters with a very nice art style and solid animation. I really got into that and my deminer would change to "Wow this picking up now". Only to go to t…

Many years since I watched this, but I guess I will give my quick thoughts from what I remember.
As a big fan of the original Blood + anime, I really didn't understand the need for a sequel, at least one as rushed as this.
The entire plots seems to repeat itself every episode, LITERALLY every episode starts out and almost always ends the same way.
The GORE IS CENSORED. Yeah some might think this is a nitpick, but it really ruins a lot of immersion, as most animes and even big budget Hollywood show/movies don't tend to censor gore, but only perhaps shy away from nudity or straight up not show it, as is very much the same with anime in general, due to Japan's nudity laws.
All in all, its a slap in the face story and plot wise to the original manga I imagine, but especially to the fans o…

There was a fair bit of potential in this series but overall it was mediocre at best, the twist at the end was partially expected and the delivery could of been a lot more impactful. The characters are flat and lifeless, which makes some sense in the plot but it's to the point where death has little consequence.
One of the few things I find good is some of the action and the gore, it was probably the better part of the show. The dub also was pretty decent.
I doubt I'd ever recommend this series to anyone, but its works well if you just have it on in the background with you brain turned off.

If you're just getting into the Blood-C franchise like me, this anime isn't all that it's hyped to be. I've seen so many people hype it up, but when I watched it I was highly disappointed. The characters are unlikable, the fighting is lackluster, the art is dull. The only mildly entertaining thing about the entire anime is the death scenes and gore. But even then, if you're not familiar with the whole of Blood-C, then the "plot twist" towards the end looks like they just put a bunch of endings in a hat and randomly drew one out.
I was trying hard not to fall asleep watching this. I might build up the will to try watching the next few Blood-C animes, but I doubt that'll happen any time soon.

this anime is probably the worst anime i have EVER watched. blood-c took me months to watch (since i don't drop animanga) & i wished i dropped it now.
storyline : the story had no plot & was so bad that they had to make a pathetic plot twist with a cliffhanger that will leave you like 'wtf did i just see'.
why i watched it : i heard that it was gory (only in the end) which was the sole reason i watched it & the gore probably was the only reason i gave this shitty anime a 2/10.
reccomend it to people or like gore and shitty plats (along with the character development)

You will not like this series. Yes, you, the reader of this review. Yes, I can tell.
You will watch the first couple episodes. You will be befuddled by the juxtaposition of a slice of life high school setting and utterly brutal, gory, monster battles. You will detect no overarching plot and abandon it.
You will have been a fan of Blood+, and will not like this anyway.
You will watch the whole series, be extremely upset with the ending and story execution, wonder what was the point of it all, and not like it.
You will be turned off by the gore and not like it.
I did none of these things. I enjoyed the fights, visceral and intense as they are. I didn't notice any awkward pacing or choppy execution. I was enamored by the mystery and the ending justified much of the series for me. But I a…

If your into more blood/horror anime like myself, this is a good one to watch. The plot twist in the end was kind of confusing at first, but once you understand it, its actually kind of crazy, and there were alluding to it if your paying attention I feel so bad for saya and what she had to experience, and that her whole life was a total lie. All the characters are so shallow and just no real characteristics. I hated the father especially, he never really says anything and doesen't deserve the affection he gets from saya. This anime has a LOT of blood/gore, and im all in for that. But saya doesen't exactly do a good job of protecting the city. There were so many people that just died in front of her. The op and ending is excellent, especially the opening, I like how it combines french, engl…

"I promised that I would protect everyone."
"I promised that I would protect everyone."
"I promised that I would protect everyone."
"I promised that I would protect everyone."
"I promised that I would protect everyone."
How do you feel about that line of dialogue? If you're planning to watch this show, I hope you really like it, because you'll be hearing it a lot. And I mean a lot. Here's the thing though, Saya, if you're going to say that several times per episode, it would help if you tried actually protecting people, instead of just standing there glaring at the monster-of-the-week while it merrily chows down on the first few bystanders. You see, Saya royally sucks at protecting people.
The show starts well enough. The monster designs are probably the highlight; they're a weird and di…

Blood C
First to be said - "Blood C" has nothing to do with Blood +. they have the same concept, but total different characters, story and anything else. You can see this title, as the weak copy of Blood +, which no one needs.
In this work, the creators set themselves up.
I understand what they tried, but the implementation was incredibly sluggish and boring. Episode 1-9 have all been set up for the twist in episode 10. Yes, the twist was not bad, I expected less. The movie that ended the series later was also fine. But the 10 episodes you have to struggle through are simply not worth it.
The fights are boring, monotonous and dragging on. She fights every Monster for moments, gets beaten up, before she transforms and defeats it in 5 sec. The animation of the fights got worse and worse f…
