[Anime] Blood+ Discussion

I recently found out about this anime and had a marathon so I’m all caught up for the weekly raws. I just finished watching episode 46.. Finally we find out Haji and Saya's promise, but with that promise I'm afraid this is going to turn out to be a depressing ending.

Spoiler:

I guess she wants to be killed after killing Diva so it finishes off their bloodline completely. That and she has a pretty bad schedule of having to sleep 30 years. At this point it’s going to take some kind of miracle for Saya to break free from her sad fate. I really don’t want to see everyone dead at the end just because it’s the predictable and straightforward way of taking care of things.

What was Solomon thinking he knows it takes Saya's blood to kill Diva yet he futilely attacks her. I hope he can be of some use to Saya during the final show down.

Saya needs to drink some blood she has weakened herself so much and Hagi by suppressing his powers all these years just because it freaked her out once in the past. Kai and the rest need to be equip with rocket launchers, grenades, something better than handguns. They need to get it together fast.

How's the manga series? Does it follow the same story?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Watched episode 47 raw...

Spoiler:

I guess that's it for Solomon what a poor way to die. Getting grazed by Saya's sword as James drops it. Glad James is gone he's survived long enough I wanted him dead on the island. I'm eager to see next week's episode it'll be the showdown at the Opera. I'm crossing my fingers for unexpected turns.

How ya doing, buddy?

Watched 48 raw...

Spoiler:

Dang is Diva sly having Amshel stand in for her and having those broadcasting satellites on site. David and Co. couldn't have planned things better but Diva was still a step ahead of them. Well next week is when Saya and Diva finally face off. I can't wait!

I wonder if Hagi will really be able to kill Saya. He just keeps holding his feelings in, but he clearly doesn't want her to die. When the moment comes I don't think he'll be able to.

I downloaded the PDF sample of the manga from the Japanese website and it looks good. Anyone know of an online store that carries the manga?

Also has anyone played either of the video games? They’re out for PS2 and PSP.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Raw 49.. Wow, I can't believe it...

Spoiler:

Saya didn't die from Diva's blood!? I'm glad she's alive but that's the last thing I expected. Their show down wasn't as dramatic as I hoped. I expected it to be longer more crazy. Their little chat took up precious moments of fighting time. The fight with Amshel was more enjoyable. Nice way to kill him off. I couldn't believe after Diva's death that Nathan said "please kill me" that he wouldn't try to protect the babies. But anyway now Saya's about to kill the babies, she better not chicken out.

Ok the explanation was in the episode...

Spoiler:

Diva's blood lost the power to kill Saya when she became pregnant and she didn't know it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Spoiler:

This is undoubtably going to be a happy ending with Kai watching over the kids and Saya in her sleep cycle while Hagi is just left wandering around.

Spoiler:

Yeah that's probably what will happen. The final episode's title is "Nankurunaisa" their Okinawa saying that everything will work out somehow. I hope they will do anything but that ending.

How ya doing, buddy?

Is it hajis?

About the screen shot...

Spoiler:

That's Hagi's hair ribbon tied to it. It's also a pink rose the same type that he brought to her as a child. Kai also says "that guy came" when he sees it. So it's safe to assume Hagi lived. Too bad he couldn't get back in time. Yes, I think they might make an OVA or movies in the future. They left things open enough. It's coming out in the US so if it does good here there's even more chance for sequels.

Episode 50

Spoiler:

My feelings were conflicted with what I wanted and what's best for the world which would be the vampire race not existing so they can't be used as weapons. I didn't want Saya, Kai, Hagi, babies etc. to die. I also didn't want Saya to go back to Okinawa and start a romantic relationship with Kai and raise the kids. None of those things happened so I'm happy. Hagi stopped denying his feelings finally. Kai looks like he's being a good father. Julia and David are having a kid together. Mao is traveling round the world with the reporter. Lulu won't die from thorn. Nathan's alive. They left things open enough to continue the series the future. Maybe Julia will figure out a way to prevent Saya's sleep cycle during the next 30 years. The kids will be grown up and who knows what will go on in their lives. I'm up for more if they ever want make it. Overall it was a fun ride. I'll miss watching it every week.

How ya doing, buddy?
