... despair and sorrow at her fate during the blood exchange. Indeed, he pledges freely to accompany her and gives his solemn promise that should her destiny become too much to bear, as her closest friend and one who cares for her deeply, he will give her the final mercy once she asks. Larva is able to slash with his knife like nails, and as Miyu's small self is usually outclassed from the outset by the much older Shinma she faces, Larva appears at her call to help balance the odds so that Miyu can poise herself to use her...more

Vampire Princess Miyu Vol 1 (DVD): Stray Shinma, Back to the Darkness... (1174 words)

Kyuketsuki Miyu or Vampire Princess Miyu is a rather dark series about a young vampire named Miyu who has the unwelcome job as Guardian of Japan. As a Guardian, her duty is to return all the stray god-demons, or Shinma, that walk the earth and return them to the Dark World (the Darkness). Being Shinma herself, this means that fate has placed a geas upon her to ct against her own kind without sympathy, as the rule is absolute, ALL stray Shinma must be sent. This is of course, not as easy as one would think for a few reasons. Firstly, because not all Shinma are evil and many are just trying to live a quiet life with humans who do not know their true nature, and who are ... Read the complete review

Himiko, a medium is asked to investigate supernatural killings which have occured in the city. She found out that 2 powerful forces were fighting, the Shinma (Demon Gods) and a young vampire in particular named Miyu and her familiar, Larva. Miyu acts against the Shinma which is troubling humanity, however she doesn't act for humans. Her motives are as mysterious as she is, as Himiko tries to find out the solution. The dubbing is reasonable but leaves something to be desired and there are a number of Americanisations. However, the script stays true to the Japanese original. The animation is superb and the story is well written although this anime may not be ... Read the complete review

Vampire Princess Miyu Vol 1 (DVD): Good anime horror story?? (540 words)

Good horror titles are an unfortunate rarity in anime. Most "horror" titles like Demon City Shinjuku or Vampire Hunter D rely too heavily on saturating the viewer with gore and violence. However, there are still the occasional gems like Vampire Princess Miyu which prove that you don't need gallons of blood or big, nasty beasts to evoke some chills. One thing Vampire Princess Miyu excels at is atmosphere. The art is deliberately dulled slightly, with wonderful uses of shading. Scenery was equally captivating, with some sinister shapes taking twisted, human-like forms. Beautiful stuff. Even city scenes felt slightly ominous and not quite ... Read the complete review
