Let me tell you this first: If you're looking for a nice random anime, I would try this one. ^^ Maybe, it's looks a bit cliché or simple at the beginning, but I am certain you will like it. This is because this is one of the so called "divers" anime's who contain some points everyone likes.

Story: I think it's a touching story. In the first episode (btw, I am not gonna spoil anything, but only some moments in the first episode) you meet the protaganist, named Sakurai Yuki. He's a real goodie, and is independent, because he doesn't have any relatives anymore. But when ... one dark-looking guy approaches the boy, the whole story begins. This man, Luka (Zess = codename) is claiming to be his servant en wants to protect Yuki, because he's important to him. Yuki discovers he's from a Giouh Clan, which means he has some magic power inside him. Which one, I am not gonna tell you, you have to watch if you want to know. Because of this power, he has a destiny to fight some dangerous creatures, named Duras. And of course, Luka is helping him. (There are more Giouh Clan members introduced in the series) Their relationship is growing during the episodes. It's a pain I can't say anymore about this series, because I don't want to spoil, but you know the main line of the story. They fight as a pair together with other pairs, to destroy those Duras. (mankinds enemy) The reason I gave the story an 8, is because it's interesting and not as cliché as I thought before. It's like a big puzzle. Every episode is important for the next. No fillers!

The art is very beautiful. It looks similar to Vampire Knight's art, but I think it's different though. I gave this subject a 9. Fighting scenes, or emotional moments between characters are very well drawned. That's attractive.

The sound is good too. Hmm, not very divers, but the opening song is great. I like the ending song too, and some of the OST's. The sound is a good match with the events. That's the reason I didn't gave it a 7, but an 8 too.

Characters are interesting:) Maybe, that was my reason to watch more episodes. You're pulled in when you like Luka or some of the others characters. It's not the case that the main characters are the only important ones. They give small characters an important roll is as well. You get much information about them. My favorite fightpair is: Hotsuma and Shusei^^ Oh, another good point is that the characters are not similar to each other. So they won't get boring. Characters: 8 too.

Enjoyment: 8. You don't have to be patient when you start with this anime, but you have to be neutral. Don't get an opinion too quick, because it's really good. The manga is popular as well, and now they made an anime and are still airing. When you think like this, you won't consider this anime as a waste of time. I like it very much and I am glad for trying this one. Just try one episode, or two, and you'll see why. I can't wait for the next episode to come out!

Overall: An average score: 8. They could make the sound more interesting (OST's) and I think they have to tell a bit more about the small characters. (although they did, but I think it can be more) But it's overall a great anime to start with or to watch ones per week. It will never get boring and it's worth it! Just try!

Blood+ is a very touching and dark story. The story is about a young girl, (Saya) who has a very unfair destiny to complete. Maybe, the first image you get when you read the summary of this anime, is a boring story about some violence, vampires and lots of blood. That's absolutely not the point here! The reason I gave the story a high score (Rate: 9) is because of the thrilling scenes and very tense moments. You can not stop watching. The first episode begins peaceful, but you discover after ten minutes the opposite; another reason why the story is very good. "You never ... know what happends next." I don't want to spoil, so I ain't able to describe more about the story, than saying it drags you in. If you have completed the anime, it will hunts you down for some weeks. Especially the last ten episodes, when the final showdown is near its end. And, I said earlier: it's not only dark, mysterical and exciting, it's touching too. Sometimes, I nearly started crying. At the end I cried for sure. It's so unfair and sad. But although the anime spins around darkness, it has its happy and comics too. That's another good thing about the anime.

The art is not very special. (Rate: 8) It matches good with the story's darkness, but it's not astonishing. Backgrounds and overvieuws are breathtaking, but the characters could be a little better. Don't think it's bad, but it's not amazing too. The second part (episode 25 -- 50 ) looks way better than the first. Maybe because Saya's hair is longer and she wears another suit?

The music is perfect. The OST's are very well made and do match the moments, scenes and episodes brilliantly. I gave this one a 10. The openings are nice too. :)

Characters. I discoverd my interesting for almost every character in this anime. They are pieces of the anime, everyone is important and has something to do with the events. If one would be erased, the anime could fall apart. That is a very nice thing. So you are sure you don't look to some unimportant persons who'll never show up again. Every person has its own history and stories. They are not put in "good" or "bad". Sometimes, good persons turn into bad guys, and the opposite can be too. The main character Saya isn't a very holy character at all. This makes the anime interesting. Relationships, friendships, family and love is in every episode. Some more than another, but you can find them growing or beginning to grow. Maybe, you didn't expect something like that in this anime? Yes, you can be assured of that! No, Blood+ isn't very unorginal and boring anymore, do you think?

My enjoyment is a 10 as well. I think I had every emotion with this 50 episodes. I could be angry because of some moments, or was laughing my ass off. At the end and in the middle, I cried. It was just too sad. And I had moments I watched three hours at night. Yeah, very addicted. :)

My average rate is a 9. I am very happy I tried this anime and watched it completely. I am sure it was one of the best animes in my life. I think everyone can like Blood+, because it's divers and isn't only about blood or something like that. It's very touching, has it's happy, sad and tense moments. And after all: it's a onelife time experience
