Why the hell did I finish this?
Rosario + Vampire is about the young man Tsukune Aono. Due to poor grades, he can’t get into a private academy and has to go to Youkai Academy. Turns out the school is for monster and human beings are strictly prohibted. Though the monster are disguised as humans and can’t show their monster form to anyone. The first student he meets is Moka Akashiya, a vampire. Moka likes the smell of Tsukune very much and immedeatly sucks the blood from his neck. When Tsukune finds out what kind of school he is attending, he leaves back to home. But finding out the schoolbus only arrives once in 2 months, he is forced to attend anyway.
When Tsukune gets beaten up for liking Moka, and Moka has taken a liking to him too, Moka tries to rescue him. Overpowered by the monster that has an eye on Moka, Tsukune accidently removes the rosary on her neck. This makes her reveal her true self and kicks and stomps the living crap out of her opponents. That’s basically what happens every episode, her smashing down her opponents. Along the way, Tsukune meets other girls that apparently like him too, pretty bizarre really. All are stereotype too, the large breasted horndog, the smart loligirl, the ice woman and the mysterious gothic chick.
Animation was average, most of the episodes looked alright. I like the art style, but sometimes, some shoots looked pretty ugly. The only episode where the studio spilled some budget was episode 10 and that was the only episode that looked really good, especially the action scenes. The only thing they did right were the pantyshots and fan service. The music is dull and repetive, the ending theme was kinda neat though.
This is pretty much your generic ecchi anime with action scenes and fan service. Why did I finish this? Well, it was more like that I saw an awesome page of Tsukune, and I was hoping that that would be revealed in this season. There will also be a second season, it will start in october. Might pick it up anyway, I have lots of hope, since I have been told the manga is way better. Just don’t watch this unless you’re a real ecchi show lover, this is just garbage.
