Kerr Thu, 04 Mar 2010 10:57:46 +0000 http://vis89.com/trinity-blood-box-set/#comment-294 I first fell in love with Trinity blood when it was airing late night on Cartoon Network a few years ago. I finally broke down and bought it this past month and I dont regret it. Who doesn't love a gothic story that flows around the life of a thousand year old guilt ridden post apocalyptic genetically engineered Catholic Vampire Priest Cyborg developed for the Mars colonization project. The main character Able is a wonderful mix of reticent power and the child like playfulness of a kind self confident soul burdened by guilt form past deeds and the determination to atone for his sins. <br /> <br />Trinity blood is an exceptional distillation then blending of Catholicism, idealism, gothic subculture, romanticism, the awe and attraction of fallen ancient civilizations, Technophilia, and humanity. It has oh so many wonderful elements and they fit well together. There is little I can say that hasn't been said in earlier reviews. Except that of all the characters development I would say that Brother Pedro's is the most stunning. Even though he's not as present as the others his first introduction as a single minded religious fanatic known as the "Knight of Annihilation," a man willing to strike down friend or foe in order to "do gods bidding" and the man in charge of the Inquisitorial squad, his slow transition and awakening at the end of the series is one that seems all too rare in real life. <br /> <br />I recommend this series to all my technologically inclined Catholic friends and it's met with warm review. <br /> Rating: 5 / 5 I first fell in love with Trinity blood when it was airing late night on Cartoon Network a few years ago.

I just adore it :) <br /> <br />Sure, its not SUPER AMAZING, its not on par with Evangelion (but what is?) but, its really good :) its really very good, and extremely well done, voice acting is great, even in the english version (and I really hate watching anime in english dubs) and the box set is beautiful! its in a lovely box, with a book that has information about all the characters, and the DVDs are in nice cases in this box! <br /> <br />Its a very quality and very beautiful package deal. ^^ Rating: 4 / 5 Usually I’m not one for “Vampire anime” you know, its so over done.

Reppell Thu, 04 Mar 2010 08:44:23 +0000 http://vis89.com/trinity-blood-box-set/#comment-292 Trinity Blood is a wonderful anime that is conceived to 24 episodes. The series stars Abel, a priest and also a member of AX, a special unit of the Vatican who deal with threats from the New Human Empire and other genetic abnormalities. <br />This box set comes with all six dvds in three cases, enclosed in a box that resembles a hollowed book along with a "bookmark" that will let you retrieve the dvds easier. Also included are six pamplets explaining minor details about major characters who appear throughout the series. The pamphlets also have illustrations of the characters and interviews with the Japanese cast, along with some beautiful illustrations done by the Thanos team. <br />The anime, serving as a good introductory to the series, introduces many characters that are not fully dealt with like they are in the original text. The series was not well recieved in Japan, which caused the series to end in only 24 episodes instead of the intended 26. <br />The first twelve episodes are the basis of the novels Rage Against the Moons and Reborn on the Mars one and two while also introducing characters that are introduced in later novels. The last twelve deal with the second series ROM, novels 3,5 and 6, skipping the 4 novel in that series. <br />The anime is very well done and is recommended, which is why it only recived 4 stars, but the novels are also recommened for more of a conclusion to what the anime does not offer. <br /> Rating: 4 / 5 Trinity Blood is a wonderful anime that is conceived to 24 episodes.

Dammann Thu, 04 Mar 2010 06:03:23 +0000 http://vis89.com/trinity-blood-box-set/#comment-291 This is hands down one of the worst anime series I have ever seen. To give you a basis for this my favorite anime titles are Fullmetal Alchemist, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Afro Samurai, Karas, Samurai Champloo, Scrapped Princess, and Burst Angel. The series seems to be a series of detached segmented episodes with little overlap and my god the close-ups are horrible not to mention the terrible sappy music that starts playing leaving one thinking: Why are they trying to make this so damned dramatic? Also great idea here but I wanted to see WAY MORE Vampires and way less Vatican Political B.S. Skip this series and save yourself hours.
