What the hell kind of ending was that? Are you telling me that I kept watching this week after week just for that? To be honest, I wasn't expecting a great ending, but I was expecting more what we actually got. Like an ending where Yui goes berserk and kills everyone, not one where she wakes up thirsty after almost dying.
And for god's sakes, how creepy was Kanato's fanservice ending

So...was she thirsty because she's a vampire now or what?
Which one is Kanato? Their parting shots were equally creepy to me. No, I take that back, they weren't creepy so much as unimaginative. But I never paid enough attention to learn their names and can only tell them apart by their color scheme and accessories.
Was anyone else expecting him to have her eye hidden behind the patch?
If this sells to its target audience, there will be a season 2, since the guy with the hat fell into the classic trap of leaving before his enemy (and the dress) was confirmed to be ashes.

"Lemme just pull mom's ashes out of my teddy bear here..."
Oh Diabolik Lovers, you so silly...
A suitably stupid ending to a stupid, stupid show. I think I may check out the VN now...
Does anyone else feel cheated with how they spent the last several minutes of the episode having these parting speeches by the boys? I understand that this show was a three-hour commercial for the VN, but they could've been a bit more subtle about it. And then there was the very last scene with Ayato and...whatever her name was.
Anyway, you can only go up from here, so I'm curious as to how good the VN is.

I don't know if the show's writers and directors even understood what they were doing in that last episode.

I spoiled myself on that, so no. Plus, I don't think an eyeball is as creepy as the ashes. ...What is the internet doing to me?

There's a lot more of the VN that can be animated, but I don't know if they will. It's basically a sub-par retelling of the VN; I think the fangirls would be more interested in getting more fandiscs and maybe even some spinoff OVAs. I'm pretty sure that the open ending was intended to be one of those "Well, I guess I gotta read the LN/VN/novel/manga now..." endings.

The torture has finally come to an end.
It's a shame such cute guys were wasted on such bad story.
This could've been a full length anime if they did the story differently.
I sort of expected that Yui would become a vampire, like she did.
The ending itself kinda reminded me of a visual novel.
It was done in that style... like a confession of each character.
Such a shame it didn't live up to expectation.

Sounds like it's a good thing I dropped this steaming pile of crap then.

I et the impression that I did the right thing dropping this so many episodes ago (when I stopped posting). Kind of disappointing it did not improve.

I would say that was a waste of time...but since it was 15 minutes per episode...I can't.
Just "meh, lame ending."
