Spoiler free part:
I really enjoyed this show and can't wait for Season 3.
The storyline is very gripping, albeit slow at times, but I found myself watching episode after episode. It's on the darker side which I prefer in an anime and the take on vampires is great.
The animation and art is stunning. I loved how it was done.
Spoilers now:
What lowered the score for me was due to wanting a little more depth with the characters and their personalities. I definitely have my favourites, but some of the characters are quite similar, and they don't really show much of themselves other than their 'demons'. With the exception of Yoichi, the main gang all seem to have smug/sarcastic personalities. A little variation would've been nice.
Also, the love interest that Shinoa and Mitsuba showed towards Yu kind of dwindled out into nothing which was slightly disappointing and I didn't understand why it was included in the first place. Maybe I'm missing something on that?
Other than that, this was a really enjoyable anime and I would definitely recommend it.
