This is a very odd and interesting show that could've been much better. Every other scene is a load of pure nonsensical pretentious bs, but the rest of it is beyond competent. Watching this show is a very frustrating experience because while trying to enjoy the interesting bits it keeps being interrupted by boring repetitive trash. I would recommend this for anime and fantasy fans, but be warned that you'll have to put up with a lot of terrible subplots.

This one is difficult because on one hand it's a really good story but on the other hand, the main characters are so annoying and unlikeable that it's hard to watch. It's also just too weird that there is such a height difference between the female characters and the male characters. It seems more exaggerated in this one compared to other animes. It's full of the usual anime tropes.

The main character, Yuki is completely ridiculous. She's really a one-dimensional girl who is always sorry, has no ability to assert herself when needed and avoid asserting herself from harmful situations, and she's incredibly naive. She is the tired and overused "naive (to the point of stupid) girl" trope. She's pretty much useless and helpless even in the end which really doesn't make sense when you compare her to the progression of the other characters, namely Zero. Both obtained powers but only one of them seemingly was able to use them effectively.

Zero is Yuki's friend and her partner to maintain order at the school. Yuki cares very much for Zero and does anything he wants while he treats her like absolute garbage. He loves her but you don't see his coldness towards her ever really take a back seat. His personality is just awful and he's so unlikeable. He uses Yuki to satisfy himself while wishing she would look at him the way she does Kaname.

Kaname the pureblood vampire is the most likeable of all the characters. He's really the only character I enjoyed. Yuki loves Kaname and shares a special bond with him. He also loves Yuki, is very kind to her, and gives her special preference. He has grace and is very diplomatic but also confidently cunning.

The rest of the characters are unpleasant, bland, or don't have much to do with moving the story along.

This could be a great one if someone rewrote this story and added a little cohesion it. Perhaps if Yuki was more than a brainless walking blood bank who couldn't fight her way out of a wet paperbag, and if Zero was more than just an extreme avoidant who does more than simply yell "leave me alone" everytime Yuki is present unless he needs a fix which he takes in a weird rapey way then maybe this would be a great one.

Besides the annoying characters, typical anime tropes, and a few plotholes, I did like it and think it's worth a watch. If you watch a lot of anime then the characters may seem less annoying and more typical.

Being a fan of Matsuri Hino's manga of vampire knight, I knew I had to check this anime out. even though the story was changed a lot, I still enjoyed the series, I loved the characters especially Zero, and the art and animation was amazing, it gave out that Gothic sort of feeling. there were times when I laughed and times when I was on the edge of my seat an I especially loved how the chibi was added to this as well and the romance in the anime was not bad either.

Don't listen to people who say it's like the anime version of Twilight because it's nowhere near as bad as that. this anime has more action in it than Twilight and all the characters have emotion unlike Kristin Stewart.

I started watching Vampire Knight at a young age around 8, and ever since then I've been awaiting season 3. Now much older I am still impatiently awaiting for the arival of season 3. This is honestly the only anime that i enjoy watching. I love the action and the romance in this anime. I enjoyed finding more out about each character. The ending of season 2 was simply amazing. I adore this anime, and I hope for more very soon.

It's not a good show to be honest, I'm surprised so many people enjoy it, I guess they can't tell a good and a bad show apart. Regardless, Yuki was a very, VERY irritating character, Kaname is a creep (he gives me pedo vibes) and Zero is supposed to be protecting Yuki when all he's actually doing is taking advantage of her in a borderline sexual way. I just simply can't get over the fact of how irritating most characters are, and the voice acting makes them even worse character in my opinion. The voice acting is stale and has no dimension. I did watch the whole anime though I wouldn't recommend this to my friends.

Vampire Knight is an anime that's absolutely perfect for those who like fantasy romance packed with emotions. Characters are all very well developed, the protagonist, Yuki often takes matters int her own hands (she isn't idle as some reveiwers claim) and both Zero and Kaname are absolutely amazing (altho you'll need to watch at least a few episodes before getting to know the later, and like him). I recomeend watching. I only whish there would be more seasons.

I hope to complete this wonderful work in all respects, music, characters, and the sad, mysterious story more than wonderful

In elementary school i had the graphic novels and i really liked them, i dont think ive ever really seen the series before until now , but ive almost finished both volumes in 2 days, worth it.

The main character, Yuki, makes this show difficult to watch. She comes off as naive and clingy. Her interactions with the other characters will make you cringe.

The very Best of the best!!! This story really shook me. My favorite one.

Eh, this show started out okay I guess. Kind of lost me pretty quick though. It isn't completely terrible. It has things to appreciate, but not enough to really keep watching it. The biggest issues are the characters and the plot lines. The main character, Yuki, is a bland, boring, and extremely uninteresting character. Her character mainly consists of being attacked and being useless. As you can imagine, watching her gets quite tedious very fast. The guy she has a crush on, Kanamae, is an asshole. He seems to enjoy being a dick for no real reason. He really bothered me the entire time. The only character that was alright was Zero. He wasn't a dick (without reason anyway) and I felt bad for him when all sorts of awful things happened to him. Unfortunately, one character can't carry this whole show. The plot lines, while maybe not bad ideas, were executed poorly. None of them felt like they had any real weight to them, as the characters never really treat any situation very seriously. When the characters don't care, then I don't care. Like I said, there is good here though. The animation is pretty good and nice to look at, and the music does set a nice tone. That's about it though. Those two good things aren't worth sitting through this entire show. I don't hate it, but I certainly don't like it at all.

I've been binging anime shows for weeks now and every now and then they have characters that triggers me, annoying characters... but this is the first time the main character is so annoying I can't get myself to watch the whole thing. Yuki is just too much... I keep dozing off fantasizing of ways they could kill her off the show. If Yuki wasn't in this show, I'd probably enjoy it.

The last few episodes really did not make a lot of sense. They added to worst way to end it.

I will admit to being a reader of the manga who drifted because of the terrible writing. I decided to watch the series in the hopes that the anime might cure the ills of the manga. Sadly, Vampire Knight remains a waste of potential: a terrific concept showcased by great art and voice acting, but let down by truly bizarre plot choices and flimsy characters and next to no character development.

The main character Yuki is so annoying.so trying to finish it will be hard.
