Blood + 1

Wow...what can I say? Well the introduction was really sweet with its fight scenes. I wonder who that girl was that was slashing all the soldiers in half...her eyes are what fascinated me the most. Gah what a creepy look! There was so much blood and gore...now I know why this anime is called Blood +. Next scene, there are two girls named Saya who was practicing high jump and her friend Kaori who was cheering her on. Haha when I saw Saya pull Kaori onto the mat, I was expecting some yuri action, but I guess I was wrong. Apparently the reason why she knocked over the bar was because she wasn’t at full strength since Saya was hungry.

Next, there are bomber jets flying over the school and for a second I thought they were going to bomb Saya and Kaori, because there were a couple of strange men watching them from a car. Kaori explains how the jets are going to go to war in Okinawa, and her mother is working on a base. After we get a little indication about Saya’s life, saying how she doesn’t remember what happened a year ago. Kai comes and picks her up, and takes her to the hospital where the sensei asks if any memories were returned to her. Sadly no.

After when she comes home, Saya realizes that she left her shoes at school, and goes to look for them. A strange man named David, comes and speaks to her father, well actually we find out that Saya is just a replacement for his dead daughter. When reaching the school, Saya finds a guy standing near the tree that she believed is where her shoes are. However once she reaches it, some strange man that she saw earlier playing the cello stops in front of her holding a knife. Obviously she starts screaming so a teacher comes out from his office, but once he is done checking the area a Chiropteran attacks and kills him. Saya ends up getting saved by the same creepy celloist, but is he a friend or a foe? If it wasn’t for his face, I swear he isn’t human because his hands are way too creepy. Well he sucks the blood from it and kisses Saya, as her mouth tastes the blood, memories began flooding back.

An amazing first episode, I feel bad for Saya because she has such a mysterious past, and the people around her seems to keep the truth away from her. As for the celloist, does anyone know if he is a friend of a foe? The animators don't really reveal much about him, except he is a creepy pedofile.
