It means that "everything will work out in time". And it is also the title of the last episode of Blood+
Since I have nothing better to do, I decided to pick up anime again. I chose Blood+ because... I don't really know why - maybe I remembered watching it more than a year ago and thought it was nice. It was. Very.
A nice Blood+ wallpaper with Saya, Hagi, and Solomon
Saya Otonashi is an average high-school girl who eats a lot and lives with her family in Okinawa. Following her encounter with a mysterious cello player named Hagi and the appearance of a murderous blood-sucking monster named Chiroptera in her high school, her past began to unfold. She, is anything but average. Is she a murderess herself or is she the saviour? As she learns of her strength and her role as a weapon against the onslaught of Chiroptera, she picks up her katana and fights her way to face her archnemesis, Diva? But, is Diva merely an enemy? What really happened in the past, in the massacre during the Vietnamese war?
It's a pretty engrossing anime. It took me about 4-5 days to finish this 50-episode series. It has a hot chick wielding a katana, off killing monsters. But honestly I don't really like the design of Chiropteras, because they all look generic and it seem as if the artist didn't bother to draw them so as to distinguish one Chiroptera from the other. Even some of the boss-type monsters weren't cool.
Anyway this anime has its fair share of touching moments about relationships, family love, friendship and those kind of stuff. It doesn't have as deep an emotional impact on me as say, Cowboy Bebop, Elfen Lied, or Gungrave, but it still manages to grab my heart sometimes, esp. at the later episodes. The fighting animation, while not the best, is fluid and good and there is no lacking in the spilling of blood. The gradual unravelling of Saya's dark past, as well as the mysterious nature of the events and conspiracies were captivating. But as expected, there were some cliched dialogues and scenarios (and emo stuff...zzzz...)
My conclusion: It's the shiznit! Recommended!
I have yet to watch it's prequel, Blood: The Last Vampire.
