| I was just disappointed with this ending. Granted Rico was being a bit desperate to defeat Holmes.. Aria and Kinji just stood by as she was being beaten for far too long! And waaaaaaaaay too many animes are doing this! Making the sensei be the baddy. 3/5 for this ep. |
| Do not feed the trolls! They bite ;D |
| 7/10 The sason was a let down it could've done mush better The show, the plot, and characters were amazing. Still the show I recon' would of done a ton load of ramen better as A video game But a proper actual game (no gal game) were you would choose missions, carry them out, like in the first episode where Kinji chose missions, I mean that served no purpose for any other part in the season (other than last episode) and could've done much better) and there would be more of a mystery about Vlad and actually see stuff coming unlike omg "Vlad is Vampire I just realised it in 2 freakin seconds *genric shoked exprssion*" I mean some parts would be good were you'd put your detective skills to the test. Like a murder were you'd play as Kinji and aria to solve the mystery and Hysteria mode would be the case breaker I don't mind ecchi but most of the season was just pure fan service i mean the characters were pretty interesting A yandere, tsundere should never be together yet they were lol. A tsundere not admitting here true feelings and a yandere killing anybody who admits their feelings is just asking for it. I really like the characters but they downgraded all the female characters by making them too pereverted (I'm talking about Shibayuki, half the girl fawning over vlad, and Riko) so that aria was the only girl for Kinji Still good season Reki is just pure win  riko is annoyign at time plus she's too promiscuous but I like the evil side to her plus she's kinda moe when she's upset |

| If I had a dollar for every dollar I have. I'd have an infinite amount of money, so "haha" for you. |

Tsukasa_chan said: This whole site has too many haters... Glad I'm not the ONLY one who thinks so. :) The haters suck. This show was just supposed to be fun and it was. There are far far less enjoyable anime than this one. I was never bored or insulted or offended while watching this. Thus for me, a bad anime this does not make. |

| Ok, to call werewolf Dracula and let him do that funny sound which remains me of teeth brushing, that was kinda weird :O .. Well, it was nice and lively anime(7/10), but was that all ? It looks like it was cut in half , where is the other half of the show ? |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| I really liked this show, I guess I'll have to read the novels to find out more. What Vlad did to Riko was just to cruel, at least he got his "just desserts". I have to say the pacing was a little bad, but I bet you they were already planing to make a second season. So I'm sure they were just trying to plan for that. Other than that I want more, onto the LN's!!! |
 |
| this just left me with so many questions who is Hana what is up with his brother more explanation on histeria mode if vlad is #2 who is number 1 what happened to everyone else all these questions ill never get the answers 2 and ill prob forget them before long... |
"I am the bone of my sword, Steel is my body and Fire is my blood, I have created over a thousand blades, Unknown to Death, Nor known to Life, Have withstood pain to create many weapons, Yet, those hands will never hold anything, So as I pray, unlimited blade works" |
| Awesome show with great scenes. Im hoping a second season. 10/10 S2 Riko |
 |
| I facepalmed at this ending. There's two main things wrong with it: 1.)We were supposed to like Riko at first. Then we were supposed to hate her(airplane episode). Then we were supposed to like her when Aria and Kinji worked with her. Then we were supposed to hate her AGAIN this episode! (Remember that she JUST, JUST told Aria and Kinji in the previous episode that since she had the Rosary, that she would kill them!) Now we were supposed to feel sorry for her? I lol'd as she was getting her faced stomped in! You could tell they tried too hard to make us feel sorry for her! 2.)Where did this sudden asspull ending come from? The sensei turns out to be a vampire werewolf who is actually Dracula? LOL wut?? |

| I wouldn't watch it, if there were no "ecchi" scenes with Riko... with that pure fucking crap ending.. |
| Uhh.. Overall this show was kinda mediocre, it was fairly interesting with some good chars, but the story in general and the action just felt kinda there. Sometimes the plot was so obvious it made me kinda irritated to watch. Also I kinda lost interest to finish this for some reason, probably because I was expecting something Shana-tier. Aria (char) is awesome though, + small chest! :3 7/10 |
 |
| oke ending was not all bad but at least they should make another season to clear more things and a full explenation about kana what i could find is this Kinichi Tohyama (Kana) is the older brother of Kinji and a member of IU (Thesecond of which is later revealed to be a cover he took so that he could destroy the organization). Kinji has always idolized Kinichi and has viewed him as his ideal throughout his life. As such, Kinichi's presumed "death", before the events of the first volume is one of Kinji's major motivations for attempting to transfer out of Butei High. Often, Kinji stops halfway from saying "Nii-san" to saying "Kana", because she doesn't recognize Kinji is meaning her. Like Kinji, he possess the ability to utilize Hysteria Savant Syndrome. However, unlike Kinji, he is able to enter HSS at will by crossdressing as a beautiful woman named Kana. He is also able to activate Hysteria Mode through the traditional method of sexual arousal, as shown when he kissed Patra during Volume 4. While crossdressing as Kana to enter Hysteria Mode, he stops perceiving himself as a man, and does not answer when Kinji addresses him as his brother. Also, when he crossdresses, he does not have the restriction of not hurting women that is usually placed on people in Hysteria Mode, and is able to hurt them. The trade-off for this is that though Kinichi is able to maintain HSS for a whole day while crossdressed, at the end of that day, he has to sleep for ten days to recover from the immense strain that using HSS puts on his body. However, when he activates HSS regularly, he maintains the same restrictions Kinji has, and does not need to sleep off for ten days to recover himself. He has said that Kinji's HSS is, in fact, far stronger than his own, and even that of the first of the bloodline of Tohyama, hope this helped some people |

| Great Anime! |
| This is pretty much the worst anime i've ever seen. Then again i havent watched that much anime so dont take my word on it. Still pretty goddamn terrible and i do not understand the reason for its existence. I give it 4/10: 1 star for Aria 1 star for Reki 1 star for the excellent opening episodes (they tricked me!) 1 star for Rie Kugimiya KaitoDash said: Yumekichi11 said: I don't bother with the anime bashers of any series but I am glad that some people give this series higher because of Reki :D Clearly she needs more love. Second season shall be much more of her for sure. I know from the LNs. ROFL. Not sure about Reki's role in second season. Her arc is especially long (longer than Aria's). They have to clear Kana's and EU's arc in the next season. I doubt they will have time to spare for what comes after that. Skip that shit and go straight to Reki's arc for next season! She really is the best character and one of the few good parts of the anime. |

| A lot of people seems to give negative comment about this anime. I am a fan of harem anime and personally i don't think it's bad. I've seen worse. My Advice : Do not believe people reviews unless you've watched it with your own eyes. Overall : 7/10 |
| I liked this anime very much; much more than I expected I would. To bad they already told there woudn't be a 2nd season. So I give it 8/10 |
| I can see some of the hate now. Didn't like the ending much at all. Maybe the OVA will be better... The whole teacher/scientist infusing with Vlad genetics was just bleh. No outside help or anything. Just his own twisted story and a waste of a character that we hardly got much build up with. "Vlad" was hardly deadly or scary. Or whatever it was. Sure he punished Riko. Not much new here. Also A LICK? Was enough? Come on I would have expected more for a final "important" battle. Riko could have did more to Aria... It was fun for me overall but they could have did better. I think an 8/10 would be good for me. There was a lot of fun episodes. But they could have did so much more. |
| What a great rollercoaster, this show is amazing, i'll miss Aria with her tsundereness :) nice action packed with commedy and little bit of rommance in it, eventhough the ending is more like harem ending but J.C staff did a great job at this, and want to know who the heck is Kana, it's still bothering my mind untill now, i guess ima read the light novel or the manga instead.. Overall score 8/10 wouldn't mind for a second season, yes please... |
 |
| This anime has A LOT of potential. The first few episodes were good for me, but lately I found that there were ridiculous parts in this show, and some characters were annoying as hell(sometimes). This anime was kinda rushed - but that's not the main problem anyway. JC Staff ruined a good LN series. So much DISAPPOINTMENT. But this show is not bad at all -but not that great. It's just... it ruined my expectations(including everyone else's). The show was supposed to be good. Ugh. It's hard to expect anything from the show you thought it was great. But the show somehow had a good OST. I especially LOVE the OP and ED. Overall it was an ALRIGHT show. |
 |
| What was up with Vlads laugh |
 |
| pretty interesting ending battle. i'll miss this show, since i really liked the cliche characters. |
 |
| 1. vlads beating on riko was brutal 2. the way kinji figured out the 4th weak spot was impressive 3. the ost that played when it was aria vs vlad was epic. fights were actually enjoyable. ------------------------------ 4. characters were just ok. enjoyed the ost. art was acceptable. english dub is what kept me watching cuz it was top notch. 5. story could've been more intense for my taste. 6. there were like 4 episodes that didn't even deal with the plot. preferred a little bit of a serious tone. -overall for the series: 6/10 |
| Well, I haven't problem with butchered Deen or JC Staff, so this anime is a bit underestimated for me. I rlly was laughing a lot, all girls were just deadly. Seems like this anime hit my sense of humor, so 8/10 for good laugh. |
 |
| Not really a fan of how this turned out, especially throwing in a full on monster. The fight was really underwhelming and the open ending was fairly mediocre. I'm not really sure what this series was trying to be. The start was very intriguing and had a promising premise, but then it devolved into trying to set out into too many directions at once. Usually I'm a fan of Rie Kugimiya's tsundere characters, but I wasn't really feeling Aria. She just felt like a caricature of Kugimiya's type casting. I still found it to be enjoyable overall and had lots of funny moments, but beyond cheap laughs, some nice service and a few cool moments, this series really had nothing else going for it in my book. 6/10 |
 |
| I don't understand the massive amount of hate this anime gets, it's definitely one of my favorites. The premise of a mercenary high school is great to me, and while it wasn't as much of a focus later in the anime, it was still entertaining the whole way. |
| There is a scene that really pissed me off..... Is the scene where the "bad wolf" starts to torture, beat, and make Riko suffer a lot... Tucking that (replica/false) necklace inside Riko's mouth was the last straw of water for me... Just seeing this scene i was dying to get into my notebook and put an end to that situation that was psychologically torturing me ... In addition, Aria and Kinji just stayed watching it happen -> this really made things much worse, to be true, is the "key" of my indignation... Where in the world, people that are "normal", that have feelings and that are not a cold person like Aria and Kinji could just stay watching this torture scene happening..?! Seriously that they can bear a situation like that..?! There is a point where all we know (including the characters) that the bad guy of the story is the "bad wolf", and not Riko... Aria and Kinji had perfectly conditions to remove Riko from that situation... but no.... they just waited Riko, after getting beaten and tortured a lot, in her last energy/forces to say: "(...) Help me.." - "Ok.. now we (and the viewers) had enough... Torture: Ok!; Beat: Ok!; Suffer: Ok!.. now lets help her.." C'mmon...... Despite that scenes, but as an overall: 7/10 |

| Decent ending in general, however I do feel a bit meh about this anime, it started pretty good but then it was just average so I guess it's a fine anime in general but it could've been better. 6/10 |
 |
| This show went from silly to unpleasant to dumb within the span of a few minutes. Wow. First, Vlad as a werewolf. But then that thing was supposed to be a vampire, and then everyone was somehow surprised by that reveal. How does that work. Second, Vlad torturing Riko. This is a sexual fan service show, so that was out of place. Unless that was the intent, in which case, I can only hope it wasn't directed towards ryona enthusiasts. If that wasn't the intent, then that was just unnecessary. On top of that, with even more sexual fan service popping up after that during the same fight, I just have no idea what this was all for. Third, just all the historical references in this show. I...somewhat get the intent, but that, combined with the odd superpowers, was just a mess with nothing amounting to anything worthwhile. I can only assume that it was a botched adaptation. I could have enjoyed this show, albeit ironically, if it just stuck to its guns and changing scenes. It seemed like it started off simple enough, but it overcomplicated itself trying to seem complex, dark, dramatic, and the effort didn't work. This is a show that tried to be everything and dropped it all. |
| I like this anime from the start. I kept watching it and wanted to love it. I finished it, but I far from loved it. It needs a second season just to actually develop any plot or solve any of the loose ends it started. Who's is Kana?! In the end I think Rikko was by far the most interesting character. I think there also could of been more room for the rest of the cast. I'm dissapointed there wasn't any Shirayuki in the last couple episodes. Overall the ending felt rushed and the entire anime felt like it started at the top of a mountain and slowly went down hill. I feel pretty meh now, 5/10. Hopefully the OVA can deliver something. |
| Overall a good series, unfortunately like other series( example one of my favorites LN on the moment Serei Tsukai no Blade Dance), have a lot butchered from LN and like my example probability we will not see a anime continuation on this since the "second" season its about a spin off. |
| I liked it, but plot was all over the place. Characters were so unlikable. 6/10 |
 |
| I enjoyed this show a lot. I wanted cliches and I got them! It kept me motivated to keep watching until the latter eps where the maid setup bored me. Final ep was great though. This show is at it's best when each arc delivers an action-movie experience like the bomb on the speeding bus or the emergency plane landing ripped straight from Hollywood while Aria and Kinji have their own little arguments together. While I loved the chemistry between the two mains, I wanted to know more about the other characters too like Reki, Kana or Kinji's brother. Perhaps for me then , the downside of Hidan no Aria was that it was over far to soon. |
| Sensei is literally beating the crap out of her and the other two are just standing there watching, seriously now?! Vlad is actually Dracula?omg, this is so fucking stupid... |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Needed more panty shots and more Reki. |
 |
| i really dont understand the inclusion of holmes, durandal, dracula and other stuff like that they just dont fit the story but that was a fine ending and we got some nice yuri :3 and i didnt remember that rikos future fate would be so brutal if they didnt kill vlad that is. to live in a cell just to give birth to the "perfect" predecesor  |
