Black Blood Brothers

Sara: Another short anime that we were both hoping was longer. It was exciting and humorous from the start. The main character Jiro is one of the oldest vampires. He travels around with his "brother",  Kotaro to a place called The Special Zone which is a place vampires can be safe and live along side each other and away from the Kowloon Children. The Kowloon Children are vampires that infect humans and vampires with just one bite and are known more as parasites to normal vampires. Every episode seemed to tell more and more about Jiro's past and his purpose in life. The brothers travel with a human compromiser who works for The Order Coffin Company named Mimiko. Her job is to mediate the relationship between humans and vampires. Later on in the anime, she becomes much more than just that. The anime honestly looks like it should have had a season 2 but we did a little research and it turns out that the company that Black Blood Brothers was on had gone bankrupt. It does truly suck but it did have an ending so it wasn't like they stopped it mid way. Pretty much, it was an addicting anime.



Kristian: Black Blood Brothers consist of 12 episodes. Short, but a very good anime none the less i was definitely entertained all the way through til' the end. Like Sara said, the main character Jiro, an old blood, and his brother who is the reincarnation of the woman who turned Jiro into a vampire, are the last of their blood line. They travel to The Special Zone but Jiro's infamy as the "Silver Swordsman" provide nothing but complications for the brothers. For an older anime, the fight animation and just the drawings were pretty good. We do recommend the dubbed version for this anime and actually we had some trouble finding a subbed version so we just watch it dubbed all the way through.
 Its a must see in my book.
 Go watch it.
