Maan the name of TRUMP (True of Vamp) sure is unfortunate huh? But yknow what else is unfortunate?
The first 2 eps r kinda hard to get through. The constant sound of kids crying is one thing, i can get over it, but it combined with the anime treating these guys like incredible geniuses when they've said nothing of note + them being straight up horrible parents that i want to punt AND snobby aristrocrats to boot..... im struggling to care about any of these bitches, besides their children cuz they're cute, if a bit annoying but thats what kids are like no?
And it'd be fine
...
if they were terrible abusive dads, if the anime didnt obviously want us to root for them, treatin their outbursts as silly and quirky rather than, yknow, things that will (and have) scarred their children for life. Like, i dunno, am i meant to laugh when a guy shouts at his toddler, makin him cry for Daring to need to go to the toilet? And when he's (forced) to go with him, he returns with him bnawling his eyes out again, so he probably shouted at him then some more.
I'm puttin it as mixed feelings cuz MAYBE? it'll get better and they'll start being better, more genuinely caring parents soon, and maybe the writing will stop sounding like it thinks we're as stupid as the kids themselves. But i'm not optimistic. They keep sayin exposition bits to eachother as if they're not all vampires that would or should know all this info.
The plot is a classic "there's murders happenin and we're tryna figure out whodunnit" except that we see whodunnit in ep 1, so its mostly about how the lads will figure out who it is. I like the character designs, they're pretty boys and i fw that. The animation is. Fine.
Idk man i struggle to say nice things about this anime so far, i'm puttin it on hold but i might not continue it.
