Prepare to die... from laugh

[RaymanHortse · 7/10 · 19 October 2021]

Ok, didn't had expectations to this anime at all in the first place... but it really is funny.

Thing that we got used to after years are serious vampire stories; with huge battles, epic moments and overall a classic vampire story. This one is none of that, it laughs completely of the vampires and hunters from the old fantasy books, the protagonist duo is funny to the point that their dynamic of being in a constant fight but still working together is pretty good; the jokes are also good and hillarious. Alongside the variety of characters personality and the voice acting of every single one of them, being also a bit exagerated makes the perfect point of a parody in all of it's shine.

But one thing that kills this is the main joke... the vampire dies in no time and every time they can do. This jokes repeats over and over in each episode, it may be funny but they have to be creative to kill him in every episode in a creative way or we may get tired of that soon than later.

If you want to rest from the classic vampire story, watch this because you can have a good time and huge amount of laughs.

A demented series with characters, more and less important, well differentiated. The comedy is not very elaborate, it is based a lot on male physical ugliness and on the fetishisms of hunters and (above all) of vampires, all very weird characters. The concept of creature of darkness is very far from the classic canons and the few "ecchi" occasions with female characters will not be exploited. As for the protagonists, Draluc embodies the duality of the anti-hero well, albeit in a very personal way. Draluc does not have a heroic spirit nor is he particularly altruistic, indeed he does not hesitate to abandon his companions if the situation becomes complicated, even if he is the only one who risks relatively nothing on the physical level (but moreover he cannot even be useful in combat). However, looking closely, this indifference seems to be going to be reduced with some characters and this unusual vampire, despite a lonely past, with the exception of the main members of his peaceful family, loves company and still manages to coexist easily with humans, pulling not infrequently out his irony and teasing the roommate and vampire-hunter, Ronaldo. Draluc despite being of noble lineage has a disadvantaged physical condition, but seems to live it with total serenity, with no ambitions beyond those of enjoying the time available. His comic sidekick, on the other hand, is practically the opposite. Ronaldo is not kind to anyone, has an easily irritable personality, but takes his role rather seriously. The two can't stand each other, but they are initially forced to live together due to some circumstances, finding over time a sort of mutual tolerance thanks to John, the sweet armadillo familiar of Draluc, for which they both have great affection.

The secondary characters are all quite funny, but it cannot be said that they are very deepened, except a minimum with two: 1) Draluc's father, perpetually anxious for his frail son, 2) the elder brother of Rolando, somehow imprisoned in his responsibilities. Outside of these characters, there seemed to be more development potential for half-breed Handa and especially young girl Hinaichi, but at least for the first season, both remain unexplored.

Unless there are external motivations behind Draluc's physical condition, there will hardly be any relevant developments. The general atmosphere is really too disengaged, the villains are ridiculous or easily countered in groups, and the most powerful characters are the editor Fukuma, the obese Lady-vampire and Draluc's grandfather, all inoffensives... though particular. The vampire protagonist himself is not like Mosquiton, who by drinking blood passed from Mumen Rider mode to Red Garou mode. He might have a good mind control resistance, something can be glimpsed in the interesting first half of episode 10, but otherwise he doesn't seem to have powers, apart from that of transformation, in which he has no talent. Paradoxically, his only strength seems to be his anomalous regeneration, perhaps developed to compensate for his extreme fragility, which in a human would be comparable to a severe form of osteogenesis.

As a show it was certainly enjoyable, despite some comic skits a little disturbing.

10/10 laugh till you cry

[Akira_Skyz · 10/10 · 12 January 2023]

Seriously the most hilarious vampire ever. You can actually laugh till your tears up..it actually hard for me to laugh till tears but this anime, actually did this to me.

The jokes and scenes are so consistent and seriously beautifully created. Both anime lead, Dracula, Ronaldo has a very good chemistry working together. Even John is soooo adorable cute and amazing. I think for a supernatural comedy, this is amazing cause it not easy to stick to the basic or origin of vampire but at the same time instill modern touch to it...a dracula that love playing PS4, watching and reading manga? Where can you find that...
