Geez, sex, ex sex. Is that all you talk about? No wonder you’re alone, typing on a computer. I do it cause I have no life, but you, you’re lower than the dirt. Don’t breathe in too much, pal!

Fahji:

I think your joke works better if you reverse “right brain” and “left brain.” Although I would personally use “brain” and “thundering endorphins caused by OMG OMG OMG.”

You bring up an excellent point–Yuuki has a magical weapon that can totally stop vampires and a bracelet that can totally stop Zero, yet Kaname easily bats aside her weapon, Zero easily glares at her and walks away when she tries to use her bracelet, and any time she LOOKS like she’s about to defend herself from a super evil vampire one of the boys steps in and defends her for no reason. I would normally be a little offended that a shoujo heroine who was clearly raised to defend herself rarely gets the chance to…but I know the mangaka didn’t intend to make Yuuki seem useless, but, rather, wanted to optimize the number of times her hot boys could prove how badass they are.

Wow. This is why I love Sleep is For the Weak. It’s like you can read my mind!!

Right Side of Brain: Wait, how many times does Yuuki throw herself in front of Zero’s gun? I’m sure she’s done it ten times more than she’s ever used her magic weapon!

Left Side of Brain: DONT CAER TURN PAGE

You are so right, I have thought all the things you said in this review in my head, but never as eloquently as you have. The whole teenage girls want “boys, sex, but not actually,” is a perfect way of putting it. That is why I like Shojo, but really the premise of this story is stupid… but I keep “begging for more.” lol great review

The SEXY VAMPIRE thing made me laugh. I agree with all of this!

I heard about Vampire Knight because of considerable buzz on the internet when it was just starting to show up…I read a few chapters. It didn’t really capture me, and I lost interest quickly, but you have the good points right there. I like lots of drama in my stories, and the plot twists certainly did leave me surprised…but overall, I can’t say I really adore it and wait for every update. I don’t HATE it, neither do I LOVE it.

I just think it’s a considerably dark manga. Dark in themes, and it gave me lots to think about.

I was never particularly drawn by the concept of vampires or blood, for that matter, but I think that several of the themes tackled in the story are great to sit and just think about.

This review is becoming really long, so I’ll just leave it here. Thank you for a nice summation of the points in the manga. : )

Neko,

Are you talking to me? That would be so funny! Because, y’know, I said I love Vampire Knight two posts before yours.

It’s either you like this series or not. Stop contradicting yourself and being a moron.
It’s really hilarious to type so much just for your distaste in a series.
Sure,it’s not perfect but it’s good in a sense.
You obviously have issues to go so far and be so serious on the internet.
Don’t like it?Get a life,will ya?

that’s a point of view from a person who is not into melodrama and a teenage girl.. well.. there’s two side in every story.. point taken but why not try looking at the other point you have missed??

vampire knight like any other animes has it’s own bad sides and good sides.. but then again we can’t deny that people who hate it or love it.. can’t stop it’s popularity nor being a hit maker already…
