I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

the anime series is very good its a harem series so you know what happens in those well not to mention it has some slight nude scenes in the uncensored version other than that light series with romance comedy action power best for guys who want romance with harem but not to extreme like high school Dxd.....its a good series with a different plot but the issue is the ending this series is very good has 24 episodes and 2 ova's but it leaves so many unanswered question that you will wish that the maker dies well i wish the make a second season or 2 or 1 ova to answer those well it would be great than one of the great romance and action really you will love it

Does this show have complex and interesting characters? No. Does it have groundbreaking new plot lines never before seen? No. Is it still really enjoyable? To me, it was. I had a lot of fun with this show, even if it was only enjoyable on the surface. Sometimes I just want to watch something with pretty colors, fan service, and fun action scenes. This show fits those 3 things pretty well. Not everyone will like it, and I completely understand why. I really liked this show and I still have some problems with it. At the beginning, the main character ,Koujou, can't remember why he was turned into a vampire, and it was never explained. That drove me nuts. Doesn't help that I'm fairly sure there were other things like this in the show. Also the structure of the plot does start to test your patience with its repetitiveness, as it does not change the entire show. Thankfully, I don't feel like it dragged it out too long though. So, is the show great? Absolutely not. It's just enjoyable and if you need something mindless, then this isn't a bad choice.

Outwardly protagonist Kojou Akatsuki seems just like any other sixteen year old boy; indeed that is what he was until he became the 'Fourth Progenitor'; the most powerful vampire! Others are understandably wary of his powers so 'sword shaman' Yukina Himeragi is sent to observe him and, should he show signs of becoming dangerous, kill him. The vampires in this series aren't quite like others; they have the power to summon familiars; huge supernatural beasts, although initially Kojou can't as he has yet to drink human blood. Kojou may not be that interested in his status but that doesn't prevent him getting into numerous dangerous situations… or from gradually building up a harem! The series is broken up into several arcs; each featuring a different menace but Kojou and his friends should be able to defeat them if they stick together.I must admit I was a bit disappointed by this series; it felt like there was something I wasn't quite getting… there was plenty of action, not too much fan service, decent characters, some amusing moments and a reasonable story so I should have enjoyed it more… for that reason I'd still recommend people who like this sort of series give it a go; watching it without a week's break between episodes is likely to improve matters! The animation and character designs are up to the standard one would expect from such a series; especially during the impressive fight scenes.These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

Strike the blood is about boy Kojō Akatsuki who suddenly wakes up to be the Fourth Progenitor - Worlds strongest vampire. Akatsuki was prior to his transformation only a simple high school student before his predecessor put her spirit inside of him giving him the ultimate power of being a 4th Progenitor. Only 3 other vampires in the world have such a power, the power is so great that Akatsuki threatens the balance of the world.I love this anime not only duo to the fact that they put vampires into a totally new and incredible light giving Progenitor's magical "beasts" to control who could easily destroy a city. But also cause their many more supernatural beings roaming the earth from Angels, Homoculus Mages, Warlocks, you name it! However the anime does fit the genre Harem a little similar to High School DXD but then more innocent, Visuals are great, characters are great and action is amazing. Just the lacking storyline prevents me from giving it a 9/10
