Diabolik Lovers Blu-ray

Very nice came quickly.

This definitely throws out the idea of a vampire romance (thank Otomate). I wouldn't have purchased it if it was romantic. For people who do not like the show for those reasons, you have to understand that she is their food. This is not a hentai, they are only biting her. So if this is too much for you, don't watch it. It is called DIABOLIK lovers. Japan's fans likes it and they have made it abundantly clear that a season 2 will be coming out very soon.Now for the story-line. It is a bit backwards as you progress through the eyes of Yui. She is lured into the house for reasons unknown requested from her father. She then meets 6 young men; triplets, two full brothers, and a outcast brother. The characters are very memorable and this can't be said for a lot of anime. They are each crazily unique in their own way. You find that each of the brothers have a distorted view of the world and you can see that from their childhood memories and behavior. There is some foul language and grabbing which I personally don't like but the story becomes more clear as you reach the end. It still leaves a lot out for the fans and there is more in the video game, so this is the reason why they need to have a season 2. It wouldn't be complete without it.I can understand that Diabolik Lovers isn't for everyone, but there are way more inappropriate manga and anime out there, I can name few. So watch it all first before you critique it. I personally loved it and adding it to my vampire collection: Trinity Blood, Vampire Knight, Betrayal Knows my Name, Hellsing, Owari no Seraph, Nightwalker, and Gankutsuou.

One thing to make sure for before you buy this anime is that you know the basic story. This anime is by no means a romantic story, do not go in expecting a romance like from Twilight or something. This is a HORROR anime more than anything. The relationship between the protagonist and the vampire brothers is one of a victim and her abusers or captors. Later she developes Stockholm syndrome and cares about the brothers. However it is far from a romance anime and you should not watch if you are hoping for a romantic vampire story. Search elsewhere for romance. That being said, this anime is great if you want a disturbing horror story. So if you like horror then give this anime a try. Stay away if you want sweet romance though.That aside the disc is very pretty and the menu screen is also pretty nice. Definitely a good buy if you find it on sale, not the full price. It is after all only 12 episodes so the original $40 price is somewhat crazy to me however I bought it for about $15 so it is definitely worth that amount.

Was packaged well (along with my Pocky), and arrived quite early than I expected! I originally watched Diabolik Lovers on Hulu before I decided to add it to my growing anime collection. Personally, I really like this anime. It was different, and the animation is superb. I don't think the English dub does this anime justice, but this review is coming from someone who loves watching anime in Japanese with English subtitles. I wish that the episodes were longer, and that an internal struggle was present throughout. Many reviews of Diabolik Lovers on various websites comment that Yui lacks self respect. It's clear that Yui accepts her "position" as the sacrificial bride, but I think adding an internal struggle would have made her a bit more likeable, (or perhaps relatable if anyone has been involved in a sadistic/controlling relationship). Quite a controversial anime, but I enjoyed it. I would recommend this anime to anyone. For those who have not seen this and are searching for something new to watch, I would at least check it out on Hulu or Crunchy Roll. Everyone has their own preferences. I'm an extremely open-minded person so that may be the reason why the story didn't bother me as much. Anyway, I hope this review helps!

DiaLover BD was a pretty nice experience. The visual quality is pretty fantastic across its twelve episodes. Sound wise it was good too sounding much better than it did on crunchyroll streaming while airing over the season. I just wish the recap episode was included here.Additionally there are no extras so its pretty barebones, but thats to be expected for most anime coming from Sentai and well any of the other companies in the US. For the cost, it feels like a steal for 20$ or so for 180minutes of content.I loved their english dub writing for it too. Additionally their choice of YOURS TRULY for the disc art was splendid. Ayato is the best.

This one is based on a visual novel or a game. I like the anime, though it is a bit short. I have since ordered the second season because I want to see more! All the different vampire Bishounen have unique and distinct personalities to suit whatever fetish you may be in the mood for.

LOVE THIS DVD!!!

This was an interesting anime. Leans more to the naughty side of vampires.
