TOTAL VAMPIRE DEATH
>>288796926What the fuck!
>>288796926Agreed
>>288796926Vampires are made for __
>>288797363I fapped to that scene
>>288797363being crushed under machines of labor
>>288797487Damn it, man. I just popped.
>>288796926he's a bad man
>>288797615Just doing what is necessary
>>288796926is this New vampi..... oh shit....
He WON
>>288796926TOTAL VAMPIRE BREEDING
>>288796926My hero...
>>288798139You've been doing this for a while, what do you think they're up to after the ending?
>>288796926Can I keep Kuroe?
>>288796926My nigga, are you sure, my nigga?
>>288796926The fucked up thing is his wife didn't even know she was a vampire yet. She didn't know what was going on, as he tortured and experimented on her to try and figure out exactly what could kill them.
>Start horror show>Expect scary elements>First thing I'm greeting to is a pair of massive titsShow gets scary later, but damn this was a way to start the anime.
>>288798774Presumably murdering more innocent people while lamenting how lonely and sad they are.
>>288796926The author of the original book this is based on Fuyumi Ono, also wrote the Twelve Kingdoms which also got an anime, and it was similarly dark twisted and messed up. A psychological horror novel wearing a fantasy novel skin suit.
>>288796926
>>288798589Look at how round it is!
>>288798805Made for dirty sex in a back alley of a big city
>>288798841That whole setting is so fucked up yet no one in it seems to realize it.>God mandated dictatorships by immortals the people can't even just wait out.>Non-consensual plastic surgery>kidnapping>death penalty for isekaijin.
>>288797363love and marriage
>>288799794Don't forget how in both the book and the anime the main character is almost sold into sex slavery. Which is the most realistic outcome for young women Isekaid to a fantasy world without modern values.
>>288796926Does Shiki hold up?
>>288800721Yes
>>288800721It's one of the only horror anime that is unironically scary due to it's strong writing. Anime in general struggles with making horror themed shows and movies actually scary.
>>288798841Ono's real fetish is putting normal people in a system that is already rotten and then watching them realize morality doesn't mean shit if the structure itself is evil.Twelve Kingdoms is basically>congrats you're the chosen one>also you're homeless, illiterate, hunted, and everyone who helps you gets punished by cosmic bureaucracyNo wonder Shiki feels the way it does. It's not "vampires scary", it's "communities and institutions become monstrous the second survival is on the line."
>>288801851Did I mention this woman was institutionalized for a few years?
>>288801892She looks nothing like she does in the anime.
>>288798805It's not scary at all lol and the character designs are ridiculous especially the blue haired wolf.
>>288802190The story does get really sad at times. The poor nurse did nothing to deserve her fate.
Are there any anime that are actually scary? I've seen this and Another, and that one kind of just turned into Japanese Final Destination but dumber
>>288802758Mothers basement did a whole video on why Horror anime almost always suck. Basically, Anime is in an uncanny valley where it's not realistic enough for gore to be scary.
>>288800721besides the weird yaoi-ish scene, yea
>>288802758They need to rely more on the psychological aspects of horror like Shinsekai Yori
>>288803052Yeah the kind of existential dread that show gave off was far more effective than any amount of cartoon gore could ever be.
>>288803886>>288803052>>288802190Shiki's writing is what makes it scary, it's well written script. Not it's character designs or lackluster gore.
>>288804217It's got great atmosphere, but it still didn't feel scary. It felt more tragic than anything.
>>288802758Horror anime aren't "scary" they are usually disturbing.Mononoke/Perfect Blue go for the introspective approach while Shiki is almost a perfect tragedy.

>>288804808Awwwwww yeeeeaaaaahhhh
>>288804808Based!
Should I read the manga or watch the anime?
>>288804849Both are pretty solid on their own right, despite the fact the anime ended before the manga both stories play the exact same with only some slight differences here and there, but the story development and outcome ends up being the same in both anime and manga. You could check both of them with no problem, although I personally recommend the anime because it has a pretty good OST and that helps to enhance the atmosphere of the show a lot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wA5CJrla26s
>>288796926The key is allying with vampires who hate vampires.
>>288796926Oh? A challenger then. I'll gladly test your mettle!
>>288802780Did he bring up all of those action horror anime from the 80s and 90s or was he just an out-and-out faggot through the whole video?
>>288802190I'm someone who gets easily scared watching horror stuff, but funnily enough I'm not one to get scared at anime because what the other anons said, drawing don't tend to induce the horror factor as well as real life movies and all that. However the scene where Megumi appears in the house of Natsuno's friend, he thinks she's an illusion and it turns out she was hidden in the room all along by contorting her body in such unnatural way is one of the few times I have been genuinely scared watching anime. I remember I couldn't sleep the night I watched that episode, I even had nightmares with Megumi hidding in my room and biting me too, which I think is the only time I got bad dreams with an anime. The show has some disturbing scenes here and there later on, but nothing quite like that one with Megumi. Props to the show for that.>the character designs are ridiculousYeah, but after a while you get used to it. I didn't mind then by the fourth episode or so.
>>288797363farming machinery.
>>288804267The town itself has such character, even in decay Sotoba and its inhabitants are beautiful.
>>288796926tee hee
>>288808161Literally me
>>288808381I’m this ugly and mentally ill irl too.
>>288797363Rape and chocking.
>>288797363>>288798805>>288799595>>288804808>>288807184>>288808010That bitch had a very mercyful death, the villagers should have raped her and then burned her in the sun, the only thing worse than the monk is knowing that the pink haired bitch had a quick and almost painless death.
>we just want to live!>the villagers that also just want to live are evil thoughvery silly show
>>288809076>the villagers that also just want to live are evil thoughThat's not what's it's saying
>>288809534I know but thats apparently what everyone else I was talking to took from it
>>288804808>>288808770One of the most satisfying scenes in all anime. I gave Shiki a higher score of what was intended to just because this whore got the most brutal death of the series at the end. All those episodes of her being an irredeemable selfish piece of shit paid off at the end, truly a releasing scene I swear.
>>288808770>haters gonna hatejust hit me on the head and took me right back to 2010, thanks anon.
>>288796926It's funny how quickly he became radicalized. He cut up his cute wife without a care.
>>288811275He didn't snap quickly. He tried his best to save the villagers and had to see them die one after another without knowing why until he discovered the whole Shiki thing and had to watch how the old lady he tried to protect was savagely killed by Megumi and the other Shiki while Tatsumi smugly mocked him for his efforts. Killing his wife was incredibly cruel and heartless, but by the point he wasn't himself anymore and was mentally drained from the whole thing, it was the only chance to discover the weakness of his enemies and stop them from taking over the village and kill everyone.
>>288810125Yeah she was a vampire, but she was also a teenage girl who didn't know any better, and didn't even initially consent to being turned into a vampire.
>>288796926The vampires are the victim, you MUST let them kill you and everyone you love, otherwise you are EVIL
Any other anime like this besides AoT?
>>288811275I don't think he loved her in the first place. And she didn't love him either. It was probably an arranged marriage.
>>288798799Yeah, and he knew that too. He wasn't delusional like most /a/ retards here with a justice boner. He knew he was basically torturing an innocent to gain knowledge to stop this thing, and the only way he could get through it was to go completely cold.
>>288812746Was there no way they could have worked out a system? Like the humans give them a pint of blood each every two weeks?
>>288806129To an extent. He basically said the way modern anime is made, you can't do stuff like say Violence Jack or Demon City Shinjuku anymore. Not because you couldn't make it, but because the economics to get it made just isn't there. The OVA boom is long over.
>>288812907They could have, but the dumb vampire loli wanted her Shiki paradise at all cost.
>>288812746It is a tragedy. Sure you do need to kill them to keep them from infecting and transforming more people into parasites like them. But that's still grandma you're crushing under the combine harvester.
>>288796926Shiki is my favorite adaptation of Salem’s Lot.
>>288808770She has nice tits. I like it when the purple/red head twintails has big tits insted of being a flat tsundere.
>>288814542Her big tits are her only redeeming quality alongside the many outfits she wears through the show, if there's something like a hatefu she would be mine. A part of me wishes she would have been more likeable instead of a mega cunt so I would have felt pity instead of satisfaction when she died so gruesomely, but is what is it.
>>288796926Seen the final shiki hunt chapters always cheers me up
>>288812725That would be valid if she wouldn't have become one of the most gleeful of the vampire collaborators and used the excuse of being an undead to do whatever she wanted with zero consequences. She was a selfish brat on a power trip that got what she deserved at the end and I feel zero sympathy for her.
These threads always force me to listen to the awesome soundtrack
>>288812725>I didn't consent when I got raped>this makes it ok when I rape others!
>>288815580>She was a selfish brat on a power tripTo be fair that would probably happen with any teenager who was given superpowers. Just look at Chronicle or Akira.
he was right
>>288816758It's for sure a realistic development, just not a sympathetic one.
>>288816758I think it’s okay to feel sympathetic that some bimbo who didn’t fit in cow town had her life force sucked out. She just came back as a horrible person.
>>288817322He won over me the moment he stopped the car his son was driving with his bare hands and made him shit himself and run away.
>>288813029Shiki paradise was promised to her hundreds of years ago
>>288818487Fuck, I'm laughing like a retarded seal.
>>288814673She is still good for a fap.
>>288819087Undoubtly.
>>288818127>>288817414She just wanted to leave and start a new life in the city far away from her podunk town and the hicks who live in it. The vampires gave her a way to make that happen, and being a dumb teenager not knowing any better, she took it.
>>288811275His wife was dead. He cut up the demon inhabiting her corpse.
>>288819748It was her soul in the corpse. She suffered. But at least he did eventually kill her and free her soul from being trapped in a body that required human blood to sustain itself.
>>288812844Wasn't she also cheating on him with the rich dude who was with the Shiki? I thought there was an implication.
>>288819419The irony is that even with the vampires she wouldn't have attained her dream as they intended to stay in the village. It was a no win for her.
>>288812907Sure they could. The vampires have no need to kill whatsoever, they need to feed on the same person several times in a short period for the victim to actually die. All that's required for a working system is that they cycle on who they feed. They killed because they wanted to.
>>288819419She really did come back evil tho.
Did her crushes ghost come back to get her killed or just her regular obsession with him?
>>288819837All I remember is that she talked with the werewolf butler and let him enter the clinic and that's how she died. The one cuck however was the rich human guy with the Shiki because his lover was a mega whore who seduced men she found attractive to feed and he was aware of that. She even set his sight on Ozaki and that's why she ends up killed in the festival later on.
>>288819908All because everyone decided to follow an older lolibaba
>>288812844I think they do care about each other quite a bit, but there’s massive stress from him dealing with a unsolvable pandemic and he also has a bitch mother where no girl is good enough for her doctor son.
>>288796926Shiki vampire eyes are my favorite. The story left me wanting there to be more in this universe.
>>288817322He LOST
>>288819908But there was a scene with the doctors wife with the human rich guy drinking wine (if I remember correctly) where she was revealed as a shiki for the first time.
>>288820278>>288817322The scene where he killed his own son by dragging him into the sunlight, and was talking to him like a father about to spank a bratty child was peak comedy. Either intentionally or unintentionally. "I brought you into this world! Now I'm gonna take you out of it!"
>>288820317I don't remember a scene like that, I only remember her talking with Tatsumi the butler. She also only turns into a Shiki when she's about to be dissected by her husband to find the weakness of the Shiki.
>>288819869I really wish she wasn't that evil, I felt genuinely bad for her when she died as a human despite her elitistic beliefs since she was still romantic and cute, but when she returned she was just irredeemable.
>>288820402Ah, I must be confusing her with the megaslut rich guy's shiki wife.
>>288820173Yeah, the vampire designs and especially the eyes were nice. They were the eyes of something dead.
>>288820456The doctors wife could also been a mind raped and rape/raped thrall at that point. I really do need to do a rewatch sometime.
>>288820445Poor megumers
>>288819852Implying they wouldn't have started another coven somewhere else in Japan once they got the system of bloodsucking down to an exact science.
>>288820831I could've save her, bros...
>>288820899Would the doctor convince the government to hunt them down or is sotoba going to close ranks to prevent the discovery of the mass graves? Maybe the doctor will start a secret society to hunt vampires.
>>288821196>is sotoba going to close ranks to prevent the discovery of the mass graves?Japan cremates most of their dead.
>>288821180>she’s still a massive chunni dork even as a vampireThere was no saving her
>>288821219They sewed the staked vampires shut in body bags and threw them into the “pit”.
>>288821196>Would the doctor convince the government to hunt them downWe don't know exactly how many of them are, or if the government knows about them, or if it would even be a good thing for the government to know about them. You really want the Japanese Epstein, already a monster, getting immortality from drinking blood? >>288821254Oh yeah. I forgot about that.
>>288821331>implying that nipponese Epstein isn’t already a vampire
>>288802000>It was made by a womanWell that explains why I enjoyed both shows a lot
>>288821487Checks out
>>288821487Therre aren't exactly many men with the name Fuyumi.
Yes, kill all vampires!Besides Ruruna.
>>288821626>Haru>Ren>Aio>SoraI don't speak moon, but some of the male names sound female
>>288821782Usually if it ends in 'i' it's a girls name. eg. Haruhi. Mayumi.
Describe this character.
>>288821801He's a hero who's sacrifice should be rememered. He's lucky he won the lotto, and became a daywalker. Or else he wouldn't have been able to stop the other daywalker from escaping and starting this whole mess all over again.
>>288821801Should have stuck his dick in undead vampire pussy
>>288821801Made the best choices morality wise given his situation. I really liked his dynamic with the doctor. Also, what was that weird yaoi-ish thing where his best friend who was a shiki and Megumi fighting over biting him and making him''theirs''. Did his friend really want like that?
>>288822004Is the compulsion/mind control related to feeding on them? If megumi got to him first she would have definitely forced him to fuck her.
>>288822098I see. He was definitely doing Natsuno a favor since he wasn't into that. On another note how did the little brother of the sister who went insane and was digging her own grave survive being in a room with a giant shiki while being tied up?
>>288822004>Did his friend really want like that?Does it matter given he died?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wA5CJrla26s
>>288822262Oh, yeah. He bit him in the neck didn't he? And Natsuno won the Shiki lotery of being the not so unfortunate as the others.
>>288796926Did absolutely nothing fucking wrong except not being expedient enough
>>288822298Cute tummy.
>>288796926Total Witch Death
Stupidity>No you don't get it, we NEED to antagonise a sentient and highly capable of violence species to procure food>It's totally fine to abduct their offspring unprovoked, we need to feed same as they do>No, we can't talk it out because they wouldn't understand, we must be underhanded until it's too late for them to react>Never mind that we prove every negative stereotype they have about us correctMalice>NOOOO, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SIT THERE AND TAKE IT, YOU AREN'T ENTITLED TO SELF DEFENSE>THAT'S IMMORAL, I WANT TO LIVE I DON'T WANT TO DIE, IGNORE EVERY OTHER PERSON WHO ALSO WANTED TO LIVE BUT IS DEAD BECAUSE OF MEEmbarrassing display for someone who's supposed to be wise beyond her years
>>288822804she won
>>288822804She’s always been a child so it makes sense that she’s dumb af and literally thinks it’s fun to let her whore “daughter” do as she pleases.
>>288812752AoT is so lame compared to Shiki. How many arguments did they have over whether to genocide meanwhile the doc just goes>I've proven the existence of vampires to the villagers, time to kill these fucks
>>288821888I don't think he's as much as a hero as he just wanted to kill the vampires for ruining everything, still based.
>>288822850for every effeminate hippie priest there are ten sleep deprived physicians looking to practice medicine on your pale assstay in your lane or the next time will be the last
>>288822804>muh whole pig You could replace the shiki with bears and not change much
>>288823126Lmao
I only watched Dears because of this show lmao
