Story's set in Asia My lack of knowledge in Marvel universe is little to nothing, aside from the mainstream live-action movies that's been made, I don't know anything else. And then I stumbled into western comics made into anime. It piqued my interest to the fullest. I didn't had the chance to watch Wesley Snipes when the live-action was made(I was too young for it; I'll watch it in the near future). So I decided to watch the animation to know a little about Blade's history. I'm not sure if it's as accurate as the comics that were published. But some parts were right, googled athing or two about it.

Story - 7
Being that Blade is originally western, of course the animation will be western-esque. But it's really fun seeing Blade use Ruroni Kenshin's techniques(jk, obviously). In this animation, Blade's fighting an organization called Existence, led by Deacon Frost. An organization chuck full of vampire hybrids. He stumbles with a hot chick named Makoto, who's a vampire hunter, too. She was traveling with his father and got caught up in an event which turned his father into 'one of them'. Eric Brooks, also known as Blade, who has no choice ended Makoto's father's life. Angered by Blade's actions, Makoto tries to avenge his father's death by ending Blade's life. But of course, we all know they'd end up as partners, and yes they did. They team up against Deacon Frost's vampire-hybrids in Asia. They even get to team up with the most popular mutant ever... * drumrolls * Wolverine! Yep, a sexy, Japanese-speaking Wolverine(comes with his usual crazy overgrown sideburns). Too bad its just for one episode, but, meh, who cares? It's effin' Logan! Back to the story, it's a bit different from the comics you've read about Blade. Which I find refreshing.

Art : 8
Great art. Like I've mentioned before, the animation's pretty western-esque. Details on the fight scenes were awesome.

Characters : 7
The addition of Makoto and other characters blended well with Blade. Wolverine's cameo, Kikyo(regenerative Kenshin Himura, lol). And the hybrid vampires are cool, too.

Music : 5
Not much to mention in music. Opening and ending themes were just instrumentals, still cool, though.

Enjoyment : 7
Probably enjoyed it less than what I was hoping for. Still, it was still entertaining. It's a pretty decent show. But I think hardcore Marvel fans won't go gaga over the show. Well, as far as I know, Blade's not that mainstream unlike Wolverine or the Avengers, so nobody would mind even if the animation's not that 'great'.

Overall : 7
7 is the perfect score Blade can get from me. It's not that good, yet it's not bad. The series is entertaining. Good rivals, decent storyboard, decent progressing of the story, and one epic twist. I could say that Blade is a good watch, not if you're a hardcore comic Marvel fan. The show's kinda R-13, so don't expect some gory shites out of it. With this, I end my review, have fun watching Blade slash some vamps!
