[Anime] Blood+ Discussion

What a great series. The big surprise in episode 32 was great. Episode 33 takes place a whole year later. Can't wait to see what is in store for the characters.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No, you don't need to have seen the movie to understand what is going on. Everything is explained in detail throughout the episodes. The movie is quite different from the series as well.

It's been awhile since the last subs were released. Hope they get them out soon. I really want to see what the characters have become and look like a whole year later.

How ya doing, buddy?

Episodes 33 through 37 have been released in the last week. Characters have changed in appearance but not in attitude. Seems Diva has taken Riku's body or something like that. She looks a lot like him now. Saya is shutting herself out from the others. Kai is more mature and is still in love with her.

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

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.

Spoiler:

Of course she's going to chicken out since Kai showed up at the end. I haven't watched this episode yet but from the summaries I've read it sounds pathetic. Really cheap way to end things off. Diva and her Chevaliers were pumped up to be big badasses, but they're all defeated in one episode. 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.

Maybe they will find away for Saya not to go to sleep so she can stay with Kai and the Children.

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

There were too many ups and downs in this series. Some episodes were just perfect while others lagged.

Spoiler:

Riku's death was great, but too many episodes after that had nothing happening. Saya was just lamenting all the time. Also, I find it unbelivable that Saya's gang decimated the enemies so easily. Her group was displayed to be so weak and Diva's so strong, but in the end "Oh, we only need to weak episodes to kill off all these super strong characters."

I was speaking idiomatically.
