This is one of my favorite animes. I don't really see why this anime is scary, but I guess some people just think different things are scary. I really like the main protagonist of the series. But, that's because I like the quiet/shy people in animes. Overall, I give it a 8.5 out of 10.

What Parents Need to Know
About Blood+
Parents need to know that this anime series is extremely violent and often scary. Vampire-like monsters hunt men, women, and children, killing them with their sharp teeth and extra-long claws; blood also spurts out of decapitated victims' throats. The young female protagonist masterfully wields a sword, slashing both beasts and men, and many tense moments are accentuated with spooky music. The protagonist and other young female characters are also sexualized; wear ultra-short skirts; and sometimes talk about not eating to avoid getting fat.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about different styles of animation. What characterizes an "anime" series? If you're familiar with anime, what themes do you see repeated in different series? In general, how is animation different in kids' shows and more adult-oriented shows like this one? Why use animation to tell grown-up stories in the first place? How does animation affect the story being told?

Not mentioned earlier...
I love this anime dearly. But, I recently purchased this anime, and I was shocked! One of the male protagonists, Riku, is raped and killed (it wasn't very graphic but some non-graphic images were shown) by the female antagonist, Diva, so she can impregnate herself, in one of the later episodes. Since this episode is due to air Nov. 10th 2007 (Episode 32, Boy Meets Girl) I felt that people may want to protect their children from this sort of violence. Overall though this is a great anime, although I wouldn't recomend it for small children. It's a very violent series and the uniforms (which I consider normal) may seem a bit skimpy to some. But it has many great characters and a wonderful storyline, so, any adults and teens interested in anime are likely to enjoy this show.
