Koby Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 What is Rosario + Vampire ...? Rosario + Vampire is a Japanese manga series that was originally serialized in Monthly Shonen Jump between 2004 and 2007. However in September 2007 an extra chapter was issued in Weekly Shonen Jump and in November 2007 the manga began regular serialization again, this time in Jump Square and is still currently unfinished. An anime adaption started broadcast in Japan on January 3, 2008.Summary: Due to poor grades, Tsukune Aono, an average high school student, has been unable to get accepted into any private academy of his choice. By exceptional accident, the only school to accept him turns out to be anything but ordinary; the school is attended by youkai (demons) disguised as humans. Fearing for his life, he attempts to escape only to meet Moka Akashiya, a beautiful girl who just happens to be a vampire. Despite this, Tsukune decides to stay at the academy, hiding his human nature from students and teachers. Tsukune also discovers that when the rosary around Moka's neck is removed, her true nature emerges. Genres: Comedy, Fantasy, Romance, Shounen, Supernatural Official Site: http://www.rosa-vam.comIt's a new anime out this year, and so far only 5 episodes have been released. It has been said that it will be a short 12 episode series, but if so then it will have to leave out alot thats in the manga because there is enough manga for probably 30 episodes I believe, though I could be wrong. Anyhow this anime does have fanservice (panty-shots, etc.. but never shows any nudity). So it might not be the ideal anime for some of the younger people. Rosario + Vampire (roughly translated to "A New Life Plus a Vampire"), is really comical.It's only released in Japan however, so if you don't speak Japanese you will need to download the fansubs until it is released in your area. Expect to see downloads for this series on Kametsu pretty soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caladbolg Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 School settings are overdone.But at least it's not a slice of life one.It might be worth looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizenmanman Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 A friend says it is entertaining, but not overly great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 There is a total of 10 episodes now.. I think I only have 8 up for download in the download section at the moment. At first I liked the series but as it's dragged on, it's just fell to the "okay" category. I haven't read the manga but I know some who have and according to them the anime ruins it. Anime = fanservice/pantyshotsManga = story,fighting, etc..It's been completely changed and reorganized so that events don't happen in the same order, or don't even happen at all. :/ There is only 12 episodes supposidly so I don't know how they will fit the rest of the manga into only 2 more episodes. I believe they will have to eventually come out with a season 2 which will be more fighting, etc..Because this first season, the first like 7 episodes were used for introducing characters, and episode 4 was filler! O.oSo well, its not anything amazing but if you do get bored, I do recommend at least checking it out. =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizenmanman Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 A reason Manga is superior to anime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I think when I get a chance between my constant anime downloads (torrents during the day, ddl during megaupload happy hours), lol.. I'll try to download all the manga, and possibly make a manga downloads board and put it there. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evil_watcher Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 i loved rosario vampire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badwicca Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 This is one of my favorites! I love the Tsukune and Moka moments. They start off adorable, then end up really funny. However, I was hoping they would do more with it. I'd love a third season, but I doubt they'll make another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohow38 Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 rosario vampire is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLeo Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 The manga is way better than the anime. The manga goes so much more in depth in the story then the anime. Also, the drawings are really cool looking in the manga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAlert Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I've watched both seasons. Excessive panty shots made it annoying. Story is decent. Ending few episodes of both seasons are very exciting. Rating 8/10. I like fanservice so that contributed to my rating. xD Also, the music is pretty decent and there are quite a few funny moments. Story development is slow, very slow. All in all decent anime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troylol Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I really like both the first and second season, and I was dissapointed to find a third hasn't been announced yet (and likely won't ever be I presume).Quite often people say the manga is better than the anime so maybe one day I'll get around to reading through that as well.
