Review of Strike the Blood

This is one of the best anime I have watched in a while! The story was great, it wasn't stolen from another anime, and there was a lot of fan service. This reached rank 4 of my favorites list! Your average ordinary HS student becomes a vampire overnight. He also happens to be the strongest vampire that's ever lived! And he doesn't want any of the power. Our MC spends most of his time helping others, rather than being selfish. Even going to the point of sacrificing his life for the young woman he loves. Multiple times. The story is excellent! you get to learn about thecharacters, and actually, start to fall for them yourself! And the fan service doesn't hurt either.

I didn't have any complaints, except that the first season ended to fast for me. Then again, I did binge it over the past few hours, so that could be the issue!

If you're reading this review, do me a favor. At the end of every "Arc" there is an extended scene. Usually every three to four episodes. Be sure to watch those, as you will be lost in the next episode. I had to go back and watch them, just to not be so lost!

Also, be sure to finish ep 24 in the same manner. One of the characters from ep 23 and 24 gets revealed, and it's pretty awesome! No spoilers, but it's kinda a mix between our OP MC Vampire and the gal he loves that happens to be badass with a spear! You can make your own assumptions from here!
