ICv2’s got the latest list of best-selling graphic novels, and while Naruto books took the two top spots, the overall results may surprise you. See, Naruto has three books on the list, which means it ties for the most books there– with Vampire Knight. (Although ICv2 seems to mistakenly report that all four volumes of [...]

Yes, I realize that I am ten steps behind everyone else in the blogosphere who has already had the opportunity of blogging this series, and no, I don’t think my posts will be enlightening in the least. It’s just that I had every intention of sharing my thoughts on this episode when it first [...]

Yeah it seems that I am the one who got volunteered to do this post, I know you’re all screwed. (show your frustration by spamming this post demanding that Reverse Vampire, or Briar make the next post, I have exhausted all other methods of persuasion, namely waiting and watching) So it seems that the resident Vampire [...]

Vampire Knight: The 8th NightGunshot of Lamentation ~Blast~ I’m not sure why, but the vampires are making me laugh, they are out in technicolour PJs and multicolored hair during daytime - totally not cool at all. The two Nobodies lurking behind super moe meido are also really eerie. The art has gone completely haywire, [...]

This was one of the episodes that I mentioned before that I was waiting for! I though the episodes was going to be aired as last week’s, but it ended up being this week, which is still okay because it ended up being better than what I wanted! My main reason to why I wanted [...]

Long arm is looong The Moon Dorms are in an uproar over the impending visit of Takuma's grandfather, Ichijou Asatoo. Takuma seems scared shitless of his grandfather (at least in the manga he was), who is not only owns a large corporation in the human world but is also on the vampire senate. [...]

Once again, sorry for the slow crawl to episode review this week but I have no choice since I have to prepare for a presentation, which is due in the next 12 hours. I probably have to wait before I can review Special A. Anyway, this episode is so much better than I originally thought it'd be. First thing first, this episode have a lot of Shiki and Rima in it. I like both supporting characters and find it amusing that their day job is actually professional model. I didn't expect the anime writers to give longer screentime to showcase the fight between Shiki and that Level E vampire. To see Shiki using his power to fight that vampire was awesome. Moreover, the end of this episode suggests that we have finally reach the first major arc of the series. I'm really excited to see next episode because of one particular character. I just hope they don't botch her character design.

Flashback, but intense all the same. Summary; So we find Yuuki in a shooting range watching Zero while he practices. She asks him if he’s okay, he says he is and asks Yuuki to stop wearing the bandage she wears around her neck. Yuuki replies that it’s to keep people from seeing his bite marks. Zero continues [...]

Avoiding spoilers for Vampire Knight is pretty tricky, especially since it’s so easily available at One Manga. I am looking at the manga but for background information and not just to bawww at the images. Then there are the blogs, spoiler-risque, and it’s my fault for reading them really. It’s okay though, as long as [...]

This wasn’t the episode that I thought it would be following the manga, but it was still a fairly good one. Basically, the whole thing was just a flashback when Kaname saved Yuki and brought her inn to the headmaster cross. Though, we also have Zero practicing with his anti-vampire gun at the shooting range [...]

Wasted flan is wasted. :( Zero is obviously jealous of Yuki's affection for Kaname. His caustic words send her running, and she throws herself onto a sofa and then we get hit by flashbacks, which last for the remainder of the episode. So much jealously… also, did someone slip Yuki some acid? [...]

I'm still working on my review of the sixth Vampire Knight manga and it remains so much styrofoam packing peanuts out of a box even with Bloody Rose pointed at my head. In the meantime, I thought I'd address a point I brought up in my anime First Impressions—one that hasn't changed even after viewing (a few) more episodes: my ambivalence over the comic antics in the anime. I'll let Hino

Vampire Knight - 7, So it’s a flashback episode. I normally hate flashbacks, but this one is different. This one is pretty good and I watched the episode from the beginning to the end without moving away from my seat. This is very rare especially for a flashback episode, I got bad experiences from watching Naruto [...]
