Vampire Anime: The Blood Franchise

If you love vampire anime, then the best place to look is the Blood franchise. Including a light novel series, a video game, two films (and one live-action remake) and two series, this is all about vampires! Yay! It should be noted that whilst they are all part of the same franchise, each film/anime is set in a different universe. So there isn’t really any order you need to watch them in (to an extent). It should also be noted that they all follow a similar sort of premise:

Saya is just a normal girl living a normal life. Until she’s attacked by Chiropteran – a hematophagous bat-like creature that lives by feeding on human blood. Saya learns that she is the only one who can defeat them as her blood is powerful. So she embarks on her destiny to hunt them down.

Blood – The Last Vampire (2000)

IMDb: 6.7/10

The original movie set in 1966. It starts with Saya already hunting down the monsters, rather than discovering that she has the power to kill them.

Where to watch: Amazon (DVD)

Blood – The Last Vampire (2009)

IMDb: 5.3/10

Starring Korean actress Jun Ji Hyun as Saya, this live-action remake isn’t generally regarded to be as good as the original, but we reckon it’s definitely worth a watch.
