To be very honest, though I personally find vampires rather fascinating, I rarely come across any medium comprising vampires satisfactory. That said, I was honestly apprehensive about risking another vampire anime. After having watched it, however, I must say: Among anime, I'd have to admit Black Blood Brothers is, by far, one of the better ones I've seen.

The story was also a definite strong point. It's covered in a refreshingly different style, with the first few minutes of each episode recounting the original events which led to the current situation.
The characters were also well made, with, for a ... refreshing change, no exceptionally annoying character present. For such a short anime (12 episodes) it explored most of the main characters fairly well.
The music wasn't anything exceptional, but not bad either. Sadly, nothing here I'd spend some free time casually listening to.

The only major negative point I could find here was the plot. I'm not saying that it was handled poorly, but it kept giving me the feeling that would lead up to something more and still ends up a little lacking. It seems to have been left open for a possible second season.

Overall, I'd have to say I enjoyed this anime. I don't feel like I'd wasted my time watching it and I'm pretty sure, in the long run, I'll definitely watch it at least once more.

My overall rating: 8/10
