Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust Description
|
|
In a time where demons, werewolves, vampires, and other creatures of
the night rule the world. The monsters rule over human beings as if
they were slaves, or even cattle. They pray on humans as if they were
nothing more than animals. There is only one man capable, only one man
that stands up to these horrific creatures of the night. However, their
forces are dwindling, which means these monsters are all the more desperate.
And only the truely powerful have surivived. |
Similar to how the original started,
a young girl is attacked by a powerful vampire. However instead of being
bitten, the village girl was kidnapped by one of the few surviving vampires,
Meier Link. D is hired, by the girl's daughter, to take down this vampire
and retrieve the Charlette, his daughter, dead or alive, as long as she
wasn't turned. However, when D finds these two, the plot shifts and D
finds himself in interesting situations. |
Bloodlust has more than it's fair share
of unique characters. This one, Carmilla, is another vampire of great
age. However, unlike Meier Link, or Magnus Lee (an enemy of the past),
she has not a physical body. She died years ago, but due to her remarkable
strength, was able to keep herself in tact without a physical body. This
vampire claims to want to help out Meier Link and his love, but it would
seem she has other plans. Will she help Meier Link and his love keep their
passion for each other for eternity? Or will she betray them for her own
selfish wishes? Or is she, in fact, a friend of D that has fooled Meier
and his love? There really is never any telling of what will happen in
VHD. |
|
D, the Vampire Hunter, is a rare breed. With vampire blood running
through his veins, along with human blood, he is incapable to become
a real member of either society. Vampires look down on him for the lowly,
human blood in him. And humans look down on him as some sort of monster. |
This time around it would seem that D
has some competition. The Marcus Brothers, as they are called, are a group
of hired guns, paid off by Charlette's father to kill the monsters that
enslave her. The Marcus Brothers have some unique weapons and techniques.
But will they be allies? Or enemies? D had better watch his back. |
Vampire Hunter D takes me by storm once again. The first movie was
one of the gateway animes that made me hooked from the beginning. And,
as one would imagine, I had my doubts that something of that greatness
could be remade as a sequel. However, the creators obviously poured
their hearts and souls into this movie as it is truely spectacular.
The visuals are more than perfect and look so clean and beautuful but
also at the same time crisp and frightening. The storyline is a wonder
as well, the characters are interesting, the suspense will make one
beg for more, and there is never any telling what will happen next in
the world of VHD. A mature anime, definatly not intended for the kids,
but most certainly is NOT an excuse for bloodshed neither. |

D has been hired to track down Meier Link, a notoriously poweful vampire who has abducted a Human woman, Charlotte Elbourne. D's orders are strict - find Charlotte, at any cost. For the first time, D faces some serious competition. The Markus Brothers, a family of Vampire Hunters, were hired for the same bounty. D must intercept Meier and conquer hostile forces on all sides in a deadly race against time. Despised by Vampires for his profession and by Humans for the blood in his veins, D relentlessly persues his pray for a price. |
