Blood+ English Sub & Dub

About Blood+

Blood+ blends action, drama and horror by Production I.G (2005). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. In short: Saya Otonashi, a seemingly normal high school student, suffers from amnesia and she can't remember the past year of her life. One day, after a man appears and gives her a katana sword, her destiny begins to be revealed.

From there, soon she finds herself fighting the latest threat to humanity - Chiropteran monsters, ravenous immortal creatures that can change their form, disguising themselves as human beings. They feed off blood and hide themselves within the human world. An organization known as the Red Shield has been waging a private war to wipe them out and now the struggle has grown.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Diva (Akiko Yajima) and Saya Otonashi (Eri Kitamura) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 50 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Production I.G, which means the visual identity of Blood+ follows that studio's craft. Within the action category, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. At 7.3/10 it earns a solid reception, a safe pick for fans of the genre. Voice casting, including Akiko Yajima as Diva, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. It aired in 2005, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
