Could it be that no one has seen this show or could it be that no one really likes it. I'm currently forcing myself threw it...

The animation quality is good but the action sometimes comes to little too late and it becomes a snooze fest. The only reason I'm still pushing threw is beacuase the first episode looked so %*#@ing good.

But the story is pretty cool too. Just kinda boring at times.

Cartoon Network has picked it up for next year in the states.

Not spoiling to much, but the animation and story (be it a bit meager) will be become better. The last few episodes will make you happy that you watched the whole thing.

About time we got some love for Trinity Blood...

Yes, some eps are a little boring and can be confusing, but I agree that if you stick with it to the end, you'll be happy. In the meantime, during the boring/confusing episodes...just sit back and admire how damn pretty it is.

Where did you hear about the Cartoon Network thing? I've been scouring the net for info about this series and the U.S. release and haven't come up with much. In fact, the official website says a summer release, while the latest issue of Newtype says to expect it this fall. Slightly conflicting, if you ask me...but then again, I'm on pins and needles awaiting the U.S. version to see if FUNimation can do it justice.

I just saw the first 2 episodes at my anime club and I have to say it is really cool. Everyone at club really enjoyed it. It's not my kind of anime, but I rather did enjoy it. I liked the animation and the action. It was just really interesting. I can't wait to see more next week.

Oh, cool stuff. Now I'm excited to finish the show. The first episode shows so much promise so hopefully I'll get to see more cool stuff. After all it is an anime, and SOME animes dont crank it out untill the end.

Just a fair warning.

The original manga-ka of Trinity Blood has died before the manga was actually finished. So more likely Gonzo will have to make up their own ending of the TV series (and Gonzo's track record of making good endings are rather...uh...... ).

You will definitely be seeing some more cool stuff...at least, that's my opinion. I really didn't find it that hard to watch at all...there's maybe 1 or 2 eps that kind of strayed from the overall storyline, but even they had their moments. The last 4-5 eps especially are very emotional and powerful.

It's interesting...I've read on other groups how they're dissappointed in the series, but I honestly don't see the things they point out as flaws. ::shrugs::

Hope you enjoy it...I certainly did.

They didn't make up their own ending, and I believe it ends a little before where the manga leaves off. The anime definitely is one of those endings that isn't fully complete though; while there is some sense of conclusion, there's also definitely the feeling that the story should be continued. Overall I really like the show though. It does pick up after a few episodes, and I love the music.

Is it just me, though, or does Abel kind of remind anyone of a cross between Vash and Kenshin?

More like Vash and Alucard, if you ask me.
