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.
With just 2 episodes left before this ends, Gonzo tries to make things more interesting by adding some story into the mix.
Ganguro girls are still popular in the real world, apparently.
The new semester has started and the Newspaper club decided to write articles about their trip to the human world. While they handout their handmade newspapers to the students, another newspaper club appeared! Only their newspaper seems to be better because of colour print and less boring articles, or so it seems. Kurumu gets annoyed and states that there can only be one newspaper club, but it turns out they got and are protected by the student committee.
Pantyshots are rare in this episode!
Not knowing what to do, they try to ask their upper class man Gin for help. But Gin is no where to be found. Kurumu gets annoyed once again. Where is Gin…
Oh there he is. Eh, what’s up with that camera?
Oooh you~
Well that explains why he never is around… Kurumu decides to go promote their newspaper more in her own way, together with Yukari. Both throw in their charms, wearing maid outfits. The crowd, especially the guys, fall for it. Who wouldn’t? It appears that Kurumu’s trick worked. Though, the Yokai Square immediately countered it by wearing bikinis! This gets the crowd pumped up, and as a bonus, everyone who subscribes gets a free photograph of one of the writers in a bikini.
Lovely~
Spicy~!
Not everyone falls for the charms of busty girls in bikinis…
Once again, they lost to the student committee. Gin suggest to just quit the newspaper club, before things start to get out of hand and tells them to burn all the newspapers they still have left. While Moka and Yukari are away, Kurumu decides to secretly hand out the newspapers they have left, but Tsukune disagrees. The student committee finds out what Kurumu wants to do and steps in with force. Both Tsukune and Kurumu are trapped in a web. It turns out the leader of the second newspaper club is a spider woman!
Oi, ‘ello, lovely face!
Shirayuki tries to help by using her ice powers, but it doesn’t quite work. By now, Yukari and Moka are back. Yukari tries to get Moka close to Tsukune, but Moka can’t grab his hand. Not to worry, Tsukune yanks off Moka’s rosary, thus the full form of Moka is revealed. Moka simply defeats her by pulling the spider woman towards her by her own webbing.
Tug-o-War.
The episode was alright, it was more serious then the other episodes and there weren’t much pantyshots for once. I can’t believe I got so far with watching, normally I don’t like these kind of shows, but I guess it’s because it doesn’t take itself too serious and the creators know that. The series is coming to an end too, but I’ll pick up the manga after this, since it goes further from there on.
