Rosario + Vampire: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]

Great show

This was a totally unexpected and great buy for me. I have been keeping tabs on the Rosario DVDs for quite some time, and they have never really been a price that I felt justified in spending on DVDs. Having not only the DVDs as well as the Blurays at this price point made it a no brainer for me to order this set. I have had this since release and I have enjoyed my time revisiting this series. As far as the series goes, more likely than not, you know what you are getting by ordering this show. This was my gateway into the world of anime and I love it. It is not for everyone, especially if you are easily offended by notions of harem animes and tropey fan-service. If, however, you are into that sort of entertainment, then this show may be right up your alley. I have seen shows that up the ante in terms of fan-service or the monster action, but this show gets it just right. It is still over the top, but there are much more extreme examples of this genre out there that do not accomplish what this show does. A lot of people will inevitably say that the manga is better. Having read the manga, I can kind of concede this to be true, but to be quite honest, I consider both mediums to tell uniquely different stories with a lot of overlap especially toward the beginnings of both the manga and the anime. The manga gets significantly more serious in in its second season while the anime starts lighthearted and remains that way till the end. You come away with different outcomes from both mediums which is why I consider them to be uniquely different from one another. Great show if you are looking to put your mind on autopilot and be entertained.

A fun, harem anime about a boy who is accidentally enrolled in a monster school, despite not being one. It's wild and at times ludicrous, but it's quite fun. I really enjoyed the interactions between the male lead and the various ladies that pursue him between the course of the two seasons. The music is great! My favorite track is the opening theme from the first season, though the one from the second season is great too. It's disco and it fits the often times rediculous nature. One of my favorite parts is when he's looking I to Mokka's eyes and they say each other's names. The addition of the three or so other girls vying for his affection is hilarious as they battle and trade barbs over who is the best. There are heartfelt moments to balance out the absurdity, and one in particular that I thought was great. That one would be the one about body positivity and being comfortable/confidant in your own skin. That was actually really touching and came across well and not contrived. Kudos to the writer(s) for adding that....❤️ I had a total blast. Just finished a second viewing and laughed just as hard. If you're looking for something fun with a great script, great voice acting, a heaping handful of cheese with some great heartfelt moments, I don't think you can go wrong with this one. Happy viewing....✌️

I bought this in 2020 and I still have it. Sometimes I rewatch it as it is one of my favorite anime shows.

This series has a total of 2 seasons, and both are great. There is action in every episode and plenty of comedy too. The first 13 episodes I watched in one day and the remaining 13 in the next 2 days. It is really engaging and made me want to know what happens in the next episode. The only real con I have is that I do not understand how so many characters close their eyes in the middle of conversations. To then open them and find out the person they are talking to is no longer there. Or how 90% of these characters walk into rooms with their eyes closed, lol. Don't get me wrong, it is still funny to see their reactions, but at some point, it does get a little much. I 100% recommend this.

Sometimes you just want to see a lot of panties. If that's the case, this anime will fill the bill. Fan service aside, does this anime stand on its own as a story and set of characters worth watching? The DVD/Blue-ray set includes two seasons of 13 episodes each. The English versions are very well done. Initially, the series is kind of slow, since it's just introducing new love interests for the main male character. But the plot picks up near the end of each season. Have to admit that I caught myself saying "This is stupid" in some spots, particularly when faced with the main male character's annoying naivete to the female characters' romantic advances (I think this is a common theme in Japanese anime). Beyond the male lead, the female characters are generally interesting-- I particularly liked the witch Ruby and the snow fairy Mizore (she's so droll). In summary, this is not a "great" anime but it was definitely fun to watch. And... all those panties! In reality, while there are a lot of panty shots, this anime is really mild-- there's a little nudity, breast squeezing, and suggestive dialog, but no overt sexual activity. The fights are quick and relatively bloodless, which is nice. While there's a lot of rivalry among the female characters for the attention of the lead male, the main theme of the anime is friendship, which it does a good job of expressing.

- I bought this version used, as a public library used copy. I have to say that this is the best library copy I have ever seen and for the price it was completely worth it. The blu ray disks barley looked used, thr dvd versions are a little rough, but they play just fine and the blu ray is superior anyways. I even the outer case is it pretty good shape. There's 1 hole in it and it's pretty faded, but for a library owned copy I expected worse. - The show is what it is. It's the better quality version than the new "classics" version.

Had the dvd version of this anime. Good anime. Very miner changes. The box set that I got is not like the one in this photo. The Blu-ray not that bad, still good. But wish they continued this series

it dose not work in my area witch is Australia so to watch it i may have to change states for the dvd to work but thank u its a good case to keep

Encontré un excelente precio, esta versión subió mucho. No soy fan de la segunda temporada. Pero esta bien

↑の盤(B07FRX55RK)を当時4000円で買いました。 ・映像は日本仕様 ・音声は英語(5.1ch)と日本語(2ch)が収録 ・字幕は英語のみ ・１期目および２期目(CAPU2)が四枚に分かれて収録 ・本編のOPのクレジットは日本語表記ですがEDのクレジットは英語表記に変えられています。本編とは別にクレジット表記の無いバージョンが、１期目のEDと２期目のOP(DISCOTHEQUE)・EDについて収録されています。 ・特典映像の類は本作ではもともと制作されていません ・画質・音質は問題なし ・何かのダウンロードコードが付属してますが試していません TV版にあった表現規制は全て解除。AT-XでもTV版しか放送されていないようで、本品は本作を完全な状態で視聴する貴重な手段となります。 FUNIMATIONの盤は特典映像が収録されないことが多いですが、本作はもともと特典映像が制作されてないので問題なかったです。 最近、逆輸入盤の価格が軒並み上がっていて驚きました。レビュー執筆時点では価格が上がってしまっていますが予算に折り合いがつくなら是非検討してみてください。 -------- 内容は、異世界ハーレム物をベースとしたラブコメディで、本命が事実上一人に定まっているタイプです。 １期目は怪奇を扱ったエピソードも多くありますが、２期目はほぼコメディとなっています。 メインヒロインの可愛いけどしっかり者のお姉さんという雰囲気が気に入ったほか、どのキャラも気に入りました。 また、強さでなく優しさによってヒロイン達からの信頼を得ていく流れも気に入りました。 内容自体はエロ推しではありませんがパンチラ描画が非常に多いのも特徴で、アクションの中で魅せる動きのあるパンチラの数々は非常に見応えがあります。

Unrated and it makes a huge difference. Was iffy on whether or not to buy this, bought it because I have more money than sense, so surprised by the content, it's different enough from what's on Funimation.com that I am super stoked with my purchase.
