New Release Club's Blood Lad Discussion

I'm certainly not calling it "the favorite" of the season. But it is a lot better than Giffu and Gatchaman.

What’s Giffu? I haven’t heard of it.

Haha, seems like this show isn't as good for a discussion as we had hoped for. Oh well its 8 episodes through of 10 now so not long left.

Thoughts about the last 2 eps, Laputa reference, showing Liz anime, awakened powers, rare item panties, Bell's brother Knell. Yeah this show has hada whole bunch happen but not much to talk about in particular.
I want to see more of Staz's powers, he is now fully awakened so why is it he still doesn't seem strong enough to me? Also a boss werewolf that even the brother doesn't like, I hope something interesting happens there.

A problem with this episode, after emptying her bag why did she not just open the portal there? Any frame is effective for Bell's magic, and the book fell onto one of the tiled squares so surely that would of worked to get it back but instead she waits embarrassed.

Well thats my thoughts, any one else have anything to add to that?

 

I don't see the problem with it being short, no one was discussing it anyway or even providing general thoughts, this tells me that you can't find it to be that great of a watch then. Just compare this dismal activity to our previous events, so far I'm not even sure if it is beating devil survivor's amount of posts.



This episode, more laputa references because of that music. That island looks so peaceful except for that dragon staring at him. And a human's doppelganger is a demon interesting since that would be fuyumi's father's  one too. well Fuyumi and Bell are now sisters and she now has a brother too how nice.

But Braz's blood ability, blood stalker is bloody awesome. That beats some of the Deadman Wonderland abilities that were displayed as far as I am concerned.

 

Umm Meta I just want to make sure you know something first, there is another episode which is being released as an OVA with one of its manga volumes so there is a bit more to go yet. What happens etc is unknown, hell it may not even be related to what happened in the final ep here but there is one more to come which according to news we will be seeing online in December someime.

I agree that it doesn't feel like it concluded but what do you expect when the manga is still ongoing so I guess it is for the best rather than pissing off all its fans by creating a suitable end point for this season.

The family situation is understandable and really it was in the best interest of Fuyumi, but I just found myself not caring very much for these characters so I didn't have any "thats sad" kind of moments at all from this show. I was more into its action aspect when it did use it however infrequently that might of been, but I really only liked the Wolf and his brother Braz so I would be wanting more screen time for these two, and Bell's father now too.
