So, this show basically involves a group of incredibly vain, a-hole bishounen who physically/emotionally abuse a timid female main character? (I haven't watched yet, but that is the impression I am getting from the majority of comments so far). I can already guess that the show is going to involve our female lead "learning" that these boys are actually "complicated" characters who just need to be "understood" and shown a woman's touch. Then, they won't abuse her as badly, just a little now and then, and she'll be happy. That seems to be the usual direction of such shows.
I know one thing for sure, I can't wait to read Zac's preview on this one. |

This title may not be previewed because it's already underway. There's a ton of fall shows I'm interested in, so I'll be following the Preview Guide with interest, I must say.

Considering this appears to be a submission fetish thing (according to the walkthrough of the VN that I read), I think their abusive/dominant behavior is supposed to be part of the appeal, so I actually kinda doubt they'll go this route. I don't know if that makes it better or worse, though... The comedy factor is already wearing thin for me and some of Ayato's words in the last episode really skeeved me out, so I'll probably watch the next episode and then quit, unless something amazing happens. If you're into this kinda thing, great. I'm not. ^^; |

It's amusing, but at the same time, I feel creepy watching it, like I'm rifling through the closet of a teenage girl.

^Yeah, that's a good way to put it (even though I am a teenage girl, heh)... Like I said, prolly one more, but that'll probably be it.

I can't seem to shake the feeling that I'm still watching Brothers Conflict, only with half the brothers. But I spent most of this episode trying to figure out what's going on in their eyes.
The girl (haven't bothered to learn names, probably won't) either has angel wings in her eyes or a little old lady in a white skirt and maroon top wearing an amazingly overblown hairdo/hat. The vamps all have some sort of labrys design, with individual variations overlaid. It doesn't speak well for a series when that's the most interesting thing happening. But I did notice there seems to be a running theme of past trauma surfacing when they're in water, whatever the hell that indicates. |

So these vampires eat real food as well. And their favorite hobby is harassing Yui. There that saying "Don't play with your food." Those brothers are doing exactly that - playing. Flashback was interesting though. Seems like they're dropping in random stuff just to keep to viewers. |

Yep, nope. Jumping off this bandwagon right now. Nope nope nope nope nope. Kinda funny while it lasted tho.

Episode 4
I spend most of the time hoping that she will just grab a stake and nail it in someone's chest. Every time I hear that guy call her a bitch it makes me flinch. And inside a church, that is hard stuff. |

Hold out hope. Hold out hope for a massacre ending. It could happen. It would be so glorious if it did. |
