Just cooking with my new best friend
Look a wild anime post!!! Yeah this anime seems...special. But before I got kidnapped by the Pokemon X game this episode was the most finished so....yeah. Not sure how long this series is going to stick around if this keeps up but here is episode 2 anyway. Spoilers for....well a lot of assholes. THE END!

That won't last for long.....
Episode Summary: Yui wakes up in a nice fluffy bed. She is relieved to have no bite marks on her body but is alarmed that her clothes have been changed. She realizes that she needs to call her father and escape this crazy bin when Ayato appears on top of her. Ayato starts saying lovely things to Yui, really making her not fear for her life or anything. MMMHHHMMMM. Before Yui can get molested too bad Reiji appears and tells his brother to get off Yui so she can get changed. Yui is confused and Reiji is like changed for school? Duh! Yui points out how late it is and Reiji acts like Yui is dumb. Of course they are going to school at night. Yui has to live like them now and if she doesn't like it she can leave. Yui points out they threatened to kill her if she left. The brothers don't understand what the point is. The boys leave so Yui can get changed. Yui instead tries to leave to go find her father's diary but Ayato is blocking the door. She eventually gets dressed and gets into the limo where all 6 brothers are waiting. She notes that none of them are really friendly with each other. Most of the boys say nothing. Kanato does talk about how delicious Yui smells and Ayato is like she is mine bitches. Reiji hands Yui a juice box of friendship which at first she is grateful for. But then Reiji explains it is to keep Yui's blood count up and Yui is like okay hating life. They arrive at a grand school and Reiji tells Yui to stay with Kanato and Ayato as they are in her class. They go to homeroom but shortly afterwards Ayato makes her skip class to make him some squid balls. She is upset but decides the food is delicious. She is afraid of missing another class and tries to hurry in cleaning the dishes. She asks Ayato for help but he gets way too close. She tries to run away but Ayato corners her and decides to break her neck virginity. He bites her and Yui is in shock, pulling away and hurting herself in the process. Ayato basically declares this the best blood ever and goes back for more. Yui struggles but Ayato holds her down. Reiji walks in and tells Ayato to stop. Yui us basically passed out. Reiji is upset with Ayato and his clothing challenged self. He demands that Ayato take her home now. Yui wakes up later near a pool. Ayato is there and Yui is upset. Ayato says she needs to start listening and obeying him. He then throws her in the pool. Yui surfaces briefly to tell Ayato she can't swim and proceeds to sink again. Ayato watches her drown as he has a memory of himself drowning and an older woman refusing to help him. He reluctantly dives in and breathes some air in her lung. When she opens her eyes he then bites her again. When they surface he has crazy eyes, saying her blood is amazing and going through him. As Yui shivers on the ground Ayato tosses her a towel. When she recovers she manages to make it to the room where the diary is. Only when she picks it up up all the pages are blank. THE END!

Wake up sleeping beauty, time to be tortured!
So weird. Watching such a short episode is so weird. I mean is 23 minutes going to be that much different from a 13 minute show? The answer seems to be yes. Now imagine how weird this show would feel if it had Shingeki epic recaps? Then nothing would get done. Why is this show so short?
 photo diakolikloversepisode24_zps2b01cbd6.jpg
That might be the least of your problems but you know...
Ayato made Yui pass out last episode. Apparently nothing bad happened to Yui. Well unless you count the fact that someone got Yui undressed. Given the situation that is basically nothing. A big deal to me? Yes. At least Yui acknowledges that. Like where are my clothes?! But then she set right to work trying to escape. Maybe Ayato made Yui pass out so he could eat her but then was an argument on who got her first so no one got her? Way to end the episode dramatically.
 photo diakolikloversepisode25_zps410412df.jpg
Okay it was Raito being creepy...my bad.
I say this episode is short but now I can't remember who woke Yui up. In the summary I said Ayato but not I am remembering Little Bitch. Hmmm maybe it was Raito, the other fashion victim. I shall check when I get home. If I ever get home. I love work so much. Either way Yui woke up to wearing different clothes than she was wearing when she passed out and there was a boy threatening to do things to her. I probably should be remembering better since each boy is...different. All creepy, weird, and want to hurt Yui but different.
 photo diakolikloversepisode26_zps76134f55.jpg
Well when you are being confusing YES!
What I remember for a fact is Reiji showing up. No one really stops the others from hurting Yui. Well unless they want to hurt her too. Reiji doesn't really have much interest in Yui. Like she is a nuisance and I will interfere when things involving Yui also become a nuisance. Take it to your room unless it is time for school. I don't blame Yui for being confused. School? Aren't you vampires? What's with vampires wanting to go to school? Are they going to enter the human work force? How old are they anyways? Looks can be deceiving. I mean, we could have a bunch of 100 year old sparkling vampires going to school for the hell of it. Vampires going to school is special.
 photo diakolikloversepisode28_zps527a27e3.jpg
Run for it!!!
Yui must think so too. Yui seems to be thinking a lot of things. Which is positive, a heroine that can think. Please don't be sending me to a school that only operates at night. This sounds like an entire school full of vampires. How did you get my records? How did this all get set up? Let me go. Reiji is like you know what....if you don't like it you can leave? Um didn't you say Yui would be killed if she left? I like how Yui pointed this out and the guys were like....so? Are you saying that our choices are not good ones? How dare you not be more grateful!!!! One last ditch effort to make it to the diary? I mean....she isn't going to make it to the phone but is knowing what is going on going to help Yui? Maybe but I doubt it. Trapped is trapped.
 photo diakolikloversepisode210_zps0f0a24a2.jpg
So....the oldest one and youngest one are the nicest ones?
Don't you all travel to school in a limo?I did all the time. What an uncomfortable ride to school. And they all go to the same school? Are we dealing with one father, lots of mothers? Or are we dealing with turned vampires? They said brothers so.....you know...what is going on with this? They all seem like jerks anyway so maybe that's why none of them are talking. I know from experience, you don't always get along with your family. Like I will just sit here and look pissed off/live with you because I have to. Or maybe the tension is worse because now everyone wants Yui. Kanato truly is the creepiest brother. So delicious. Shuu and Subaru look the least interested in what is going on while Reiji appears to be helpful on the surface but really is just...well....protecting his own interest.
 photo diakolikloversepisode211_zps69bdf68f.jpg
My fashion is amazing bitches!!
I feel as if Ayato's outfit needs its own paragraph. I just...what is this? Can someone explain it to me? Aren't there other things the brother can do to look unique? Apparently not. Ayato's and his one leg rolled up looks ridiculous. So special indeed. Now there is even more specialness for me to mock because his shirt isn't buttoned up and tie is trying to run away from this fashion trainwreck. Kanato looks like a Victorian doll and Raito has his hat. Those looks I can live with. Ayato...not so much. Can not handle.
 photo diakolikloversepisode29_zps7df4cffa.jpg
Which one of these crazies will be my classmate hmmmmmm!
After the amazing limo ride of non amazingness Reiji informs Yui she will be in a classroom with Kanato and Ayato. I mean...4 out of 6 brothers were okay with attacking her. I guess it doesn't really matter who she is in a classroom with as they all might hurt her. It seem this show is based on a video game which means there was probably a chance for Yui to end up with any of these guys. For this series it will probably be like they combined all the arcs but Ayato is the main character. Thus he is in the same classroom as her. HMMMMMM.
 photo diakolikloversepisode27_zps1ce7073e.jpg
Wonder if Yui will be dressed in funeral clothes soon.
Kanato was a nonfactor this episode though. Because Yui technically didn't go to school. She was at school but no classes were attended. Ayato decided that he wanted some food. And since Ayato is the greatest vampire Yui is his servant. In this magical school there are no teachers to monitor this. No rules. No snitching classmates. This is an all vampire school so why is Ayato getting away with it? Is his family one of specialness? Like oh great Ayato-sama. I really don't blame Yui for going along with this. What was she supposed to do? Threats all over the place. Maybe I should be more impressed she got all this cooking done in only one class period. It looked pretty complicated to me. It would have taken me forever. Good job slave Yui.
 photo diakolikloversepisode213_zpsbed6a4d5.jpg
SO DELICIOUS!
Ayato then loses his little mind. Or really he was overwhelmed as he stated later. Yui asked for help (which was probably a bad idea) and Ayato is like I don't do dishes, I make messes and proceeds to suck her blood. I think it was a bit surprising. I am not sure why. Just thought going by the vibe of the first episode it was going to be more threatening, not actually doing it. Like building up but never quite biting her. Well clearly that juice box of friendship was not for show. It is time for drinking. That noise. X___X Barf. Ayato and the others better be careful. Human beings don't magically replenish their blood that fast, no matter how many juice boxes you give them. And since there are 6 of them I can see Yui having some closer calls. A few. And dying...maybe.
 photo diakolikloversepisode214_zpsf52b51cc.jpg
Be grateful or else!
There was no dying today. Reiji was like...how gross, doing this at school. Off with you now, take her home since you can't control yourself. Because that will make Yui safer, leaving her alone with Ayato!!! So Ayato took her back to rest...by a pool. I think he meant to throw her in the whole time. I mean...she wakes up and is upset over what he did. This angers the great Ayato. Because in his mind at the very least she should accept her fate. But really he wants her to be grateful that he has chosen her and is consuming her. I mean really what girl wouldn't be over the moon? UNGRATEFUL!
 photo diakolikloversepisode215_zpse909e0c2.jpg
So....Yui is still drowning....
So she went for a swim. Or a drown. Like um Ayato you want to save her? No? You just want to think about letting the best blood source you have ever tasted die? A walk down memory lane? Well then take all the time you need. Clearly Ayato (and maybe the other boys) have mommy issues. Don't let me die mom!!! Ayato does save Yui....eventually. And not out of the kindness of his heart. Because while he was still in the process of saving her he takes a third sip. Maybe you can almost kill Yui after she is safe on land? Just a thought. And Yui that wasn't a towel of friendship. RUN!
 photo diakolikloversepisode2_zps419545b4.jpg
I have a feeling she will never catch a break....
The episode ends with Yui waking up yet again from passing out. But she doesn't let these opportunities pass her by. She could be taking the time to feel sorry for herself. Instead she springs into action to find that diary. Like I must find the answers. Perhaps if I knew what is going on I can....die knowing the awful truth? Who knows. But it doesn't matter. The totally important room was still unlocked but the diary has been erased. Why not just take the damn thing away instead of erasing it? Guess it would make too much sense? More dramatics I guess. Who will attack Yui next week? Guess we will have to wait and see. Peace out!

New Anime Series! Diabolik Lovers episode 1

BEHOLD!!!! It is like a week after the Fall Anime 2013 Season started and I am now getting into the swing of things. Of course it doesn't help that some shows, including this one, started super early. Start in October what is wrong with you people!
 photo diabolikloversepisode112_zpscf6c1895.jpg
Why it is nice to meet you too.
Are you ready for some new anime?! Sure you are! Presenting episode one of Diabolik Lovers!!! Spoilers for....well a lot of boys being creepy and the heroine actually having a clue?
 photo diabolikloversepisode13_zps01910364.jpg
Water from the sky? What is this madness?
Episode Summary: Our main character Yui is dropped off near a huge looking mansion with the world's smallest suitcase. She takes in her surroundings and announces to all it is raining because it is raining. She runs to the front door and knocks on it. After a few moments it opens but no one stands behind it. She starts to walk in when she notices a person laying on the couch. For some reason his fashion sense has left him and he isn't responding to Yui. She goes to shake him but finds him cold and without a heart beat. She goes to call 911 when he boy wakes up and grabs her phone. He demands that she be more quiet....and he flips her over on the couch. Hovering over her the boy starts to lick at her neck. Said boy is named Ayato. Another boy (Reiji) appears and tells Ayato to take his personal business to his room. Yui is like um can someone help me please?! After Ayato calls her pancake Reiji tries to figure out what is going on. Yui says her father sent her here to live here...and tries to hide near Reiji as he is currently not licking her. Reiji is confused and takes Yui to another portion of the house. Ayato and his one pant leg up situation follows. Reiji has not been informed of this situation and finds it odd someone like Yui would be here. A voice is heard as another male appears on the staircase. Raito and his hat magically appears next to Yui so he can start licking her. Suddenly a younger boy holding a teddy bear (Kanato) appears as well, jealous that Raito gets a taste and he didn't. So they lick Yui together. Another boy (Subaru) appears out of nowhere (are you sensing a theme?) and is like what is all the noise, get out of the house! Yui has decided that she no longer wants to be here and maybe she should flee since this is all very horrible. Ayato tells all his brothers that he saw her first and as such he will give her all the firsts in life. Yui is like please don't be touching me.
 photo diabolikloversepisode17_zps8a4b48bc.jpg
That pant leg!!!
Reiji is apparently pretending none of this is happening and still wants to know why no one was informed of this. There is one more being in the room taking a name. His name is Shuu and upon questioning he remembers some man calling about some girl from some church about being a bride and stuff and junk? Ayato and the others scoff at the word bride and think Yui is more like prey. Yui decides it is running away time but trips trying to leave. This causes her to bleed which reveals that all the boys are vampires. Yui tries to run out of the house but everywhere she looks there is another boy (they are all brothers) standing there looking creepy and trying to lick her. She can't escape out the front door so obviously she goes upstairs, running into all the boys. A door that has tons of locks on it....suddenly has it's chains broken and Yui runs in there. It is old and dusty, lots of jewelry and other girl knick knacks. Yui is startled when she sees a person outside, grabbing her chest. But when she looks up again the person is gone. In her startledness Yui knocks over a diary which she finds to be her dads as well as a picture of herself. She reads the diary for a bit and learns she is not her father's real daughter. Suddenly all the boys are in the room and are upset she has found a way in. Everyone takes turns saying something creepy to Yui but basically Yui is their prey, she is not leaving the house, and if she doesn't like it she can die. Thanks dad. THE END!!!

Can you give us a moment please?!
X___X First new show of the season and I might be scarred. Not scarred for life though. As I type this I just got done watching a special on Friday the 13th. Ah so many deaths, so little time. But yes this show.....well it is definitely not about sparkly vampires. Friendship is not magical here.
 photo diabolikloversepisode16_zps4f621a34.jpg
That...was super quick. "Playing" with your food?
Can we talk about the time of this show? I thought something had gone wrong when I was downloading the episode. Sometimes the timing gives out, usually near the beginning or the end. Either way I get upset as I have wasted a lot of time and have to wait to try again. Which can sometimes lead to me getting behind (thus Realist did not get download) but that shouldn't be the super excuse. Anyway when I opened this episode up and saw it said 15 minutes I was like aw hell no why did it allow me to think it downloaded when it didn't. I kept watching anyway, prepared that it was going to get cut off...but it didn't. It concluded on a sense making note. A little research showed me this is how things were going to run with this show. X___X My question is why? Is there another show that is going to share the same 30 minute time slot? That still won't work with commercials and opening/closing songs. I know things are expensive but this is just super odd.
 photo diabolikloversepisode18_zpsd8a787f5.jpg
Different levels of creepy all over the place.
There were way too many characters for my little mind to handle. Like every 5 seconds a new boy (brother) would show up. They do have slightly different personalities and look extremely different but yeah. I was like hold on hold on let me get one crazy person registered in my mind at a time. Just so many people being creepy at the same time. Can we get someone sane up in this joint?
 photo diabolikloversepisode113_zps98219739.jpg
Can I pick the route where I end up with no one?
The answer to that seems to be no. At least according to the internets. Perhaps I should have known with the title Diabolik Lover. But you know how anime titles can be. They can either be super literal or over dramatic. In this case it seems to be super literal. No friendly misunderstood vampires up in this joint. Or at least for now. It is only episode 1. Things could change. But yeah...first impressions...Yui shouldn't pick any of those guys. None. It would be hard to put any of that out of my mind and fall in love with them. Hostage situation anyone?
 photo diabolikloversepisode114_zps29eaa25b.jpg
She ran to the front door! Girl has a brain!
Yui doesn't seem like a dumbass. Which is always a plus. She arrives at house because her father told her to and things just went super down hill from there. She finds someone passed out/dead on the couch and tries to help him out. When that ends in molesting she runs to the person who seems less scary. When more and more scary people start to show up Yui attempts to call the police. She quickly puts things together that these are vampires and doesn't go lalala I don't believe anything is wrong. She is like okay this is a horrible situation and I need to accept it and leave. AND she went to the front door. Sure Yui went upstairs eventually but it wasn't like she stripped down to a tank top and lost her mind. She attempted to leave in the way that made more sense and located another phone in the meantime. The only mistake she really made was stopping to read the diary. But really she probably wasn't going to escape anyway.

Unroll that pant leg!
There was a lot that was happening in those 15 minutes. We were introduced to all 6 of the vampire brothers. I will give a brief first impression thought on all of them because some of them....were brief. Ayato is of course the main contender. Usually the first male the heroine sees is the one who has the strongest bond/chance with the girl. He needs to look in a mirror and see how stupid he looks with the whole one pant leg. He seems like he is going to be the rudest to Yui but is already the most possessive. Reiji is trying to be the oldest by being so super responsible. But it turns out he is not the oldest. He is trying a bit too hard so he might not torture Yui as much, too much on his plate.
 photo diabolikloversepisode110_zpsdade64cc.jpg
So you are all so lovely...I can't handle it and must leave. Goodbye!!!
Raito....really...Bitch-chan? What the hell is up with that? I thought Kanato was going to be the youngest but I guess you can look young when you are a vampire. He seems....the scariest. The whole look and attitude. The real youngest is Subaru and he doesn't seem popular with his brothers. So that means he could either hurt Yui the most or the least. The real oldest Shuu will probably be the most gentle with Yui but given how everyone was acting that might not be saying much. It looks like it will take a lot to make him care about things.
 photo diabolikloversepisode14_zps5af25137.jpg
Look at that tiny thing!!!!
So why is Yui at this house to begin with? That is a very good question. Her father sent her there......with the world's smallest suitcase. Yeah let's talk about that guys! I have mentioned my crazy friend before but the amount of stuff she brought on a 3 day trip was insane. INSANE! But Yui is rollin up to a new house with the smallest suitcase ever. Was the rest of the stuff coming later? I know the Japanese pack light due to space and what not on trains but damn. Most useless suitcase ever.
 photo diabolikloversepisode111_zpsa37cebc5.jpg
Details. Can we have them?
Back to why Yui is there. Clearly there is some insanity a foot. Or her father really doesn't love her. Even thought it appears he does. But a house full of 6 male vampires? A bride? Um no. Even if the guys didn't want to kill Yui/drink her blood that would be dangerous. What if all 6 liked her and fought among themselves for her. She could still get hurt. Oh and they are vampires. There might be another person in the house too but that person on the balcony disappeared rather quickly so maybe Yui was seeing things. According to the most convenient diary on the history of the planet Yui learns Dad is not really her dad. So....what is going on? An adopted Dad sends his young human daughter to a house full of vampires so one of them can marry him? I am seeing massive flaws in this plan.
 photo diabolikloversepisode115_zps44de5bc9.jpg
What is going on?!
While I wasn't expecting hugs and love....this episode was a bit harsh. I mean vampires eat humans. That is what they do. I want to suck your blood. So maybe it is refreshing to see boys not falling all over a girl just because she is a girl. Like um no my instincts are to eat you, that is all. But maybe it was the words being used or how they were toying with their meal? Just...a house full of crazy people I see. X___X I am not sure how this ride will go but I have to give it a few more chances. Maybe more focus on individual brothers instead of everyone all at once?
