Summary: Greatest Anime of all time!
Review: This movie is amazing. A spectacular look at the future, the very distant future. Where a vampire aristocracy rules the night. And one hunter, born of a human and a vampire, fights to banish the ancient evils to wence they came. The animation is spectacular for its time, and the character depth is amazing. This is the anime you have to see!

Summary: An Epic Classic
Review: One of the first, more serious animes I saw when I was younger, Vampire Hunter D has kept its appeal till today. Seeing it for the first time on cable TV I was drawed in to the world that blended myth, technology(both future and old), into a future epic about a Dunpeal named D, a quiet man, and his parasitic hand, who provides the banter, who hunt vampires. The show gave me a sense of power and honor and taught me how act as D acts.D's main goal is to help save Doris, who was bitten by Count Magnus Lee, and to do so he must kill the one who bit her. Many obstacles lay ahead as D gets attacked by the Count's many minions and the perdicament in which Doris and her brother Dan are in. As the story progresses further we find out the truth of who D really is by finding out who is father was and why he is so powerful. But to really understand why D does the things he does one would also have to see Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust to get a better picture. Though it isn't a true sequel it uses the same basic elements. A classic pure and simple. This anime taught me a few things as a child and gave me the sense of honor I have to day. As for the show itself it is a beautiful epic with a great plot although a bit cliched by today's standards. If it is any indication of how well this anime has retained it's appeal after nearly 15 years it should be a nice addition to your library.

Summary: Excellent choice
Review: This was one of the first amimes I've ever seen and it was great. This movie got me into animes other than one of my other top favorite series of anime DBZ. This was one of the most well drawn and written movie I've seen. I highly recomend it for new comers. The characters, I think, are very well voiced. I haven't heard the original japanese version, but I will. All in all, this is a terrific movie.

Summary: Old animation with generic storyline
Review: Story: generic good-vs-evil, feeling love but can't love, macho and cool warrier must move on after saving a girl he already had feeling to.......I don't mind this kind of old story, but the scenes are not really grapping or touching, and the drawing is retro, similar to animation style 20 years ago, colors are not well defined, layers not detailed, but in the end it's the common storyline not well directed that leaves one hoping for more actions, more emotion, and more ways this kind of story can be told and filmed

Summary: Magnifico Supremo
Review: I know the title is stupid but this is one of thsoe animes that every one needs to have in their library. This is a classic that is among the likes of Akira, Metropolis, and Macross. the story revolves around a stranger who is a half human, half vampire. He arrives in this town in the post apocolyptic future on the trail of the vampire Magus. Magus is one of those vampires that is around 500 years old and is very powerful. he wants this local girl who is vampire hunter herself as his bride. She hires D to take out Magus. The story may sound like typical Anime and it is. But it is very well done. With awsome action, good dialouge, and a moving story this is something that you need to have in your library.

Summary: Vampire Hunter D gets an A+!
Review: Long ago, this played on Cartoon Network. It was on very late night, and it was just before Toonami. For the most part, they didn't edit much of the movie.
D, A half-man/haf-vampire hunts vampires wherever he goes. This time, he's up against Count Magus Lee, a very old vampire.
This is one of the first anime movies i ever saw.

Summary: Bat Wing Broth
Review: As the movie opens, we find the young Doris running through the goth night, in between the sage. She raises her rifle and spurts hot rounds into the neck and head of a fierce night creature. The monster falls squirting streams of blood into the night air, as Doris' horse appears. With only half of its remaining head, the creature grabs the horse in the throat and begins tearing. Doris fires enraged shots, wildly destroying the remnants. Behind her, appearing from no where another night creature snatches the cross from around her neck, sending her tumbling to the ground. In the night beyond, lighting flashes illuminating a massive sillouette of the vampire Count Magnus Lee, of the house of Dracula. Doris has tresspassed, and he is there to claim the price... Vampire Hunter D is an anime in which you care for all of the character's, even at times, the villain's. D is a vampire hunter that crosses path's with a young girl that has been bitten by Count Magnus Lee. Unless Lee is killed, then she too will be brought into the vampire race. D is a dark movie. Extremely dark. So dark in fact that at times the only thing seperating the objects on the screen are the different SHADES of black. One thing you may notice or agree with, is the close similarity in music themes between this and A Nightmare on Elm Street. I haven't read if there was any inspiration from Elm, but its not likely. This movie has many villains. It has the main villain, the sub villain (Ramika), the helper villains (Rei Ginsei), and the nagging hotshot villain (Greco). And not to mention all of those nasty ghouls, goblins, giants, and the three snake women.
One of my favorite moment's is a funny scene in which Doris' younger brother Dan tries to immitate the stone features of D. Trying to look cool. Really funny stuff. Then there is D's hand...I'll leave that one for you to discover. The only problem I had with the disc itself, was that the movie was in full screen. Some of you may prefer it, I just don't. Then again full screen may be its original aspect ratio, I'm not sure. And, some may consider this a problem: The vocals do not stay within the designated center channel. I actually found it kind of fun to have all of the voices bounce around my speakers. If that's not a problem to you, or if you don't have the surround set-up, then you'll enjoy it. D is a fun experience, and a good anime to get started on. When Anime catches on seriously in America, and I don't mean pokemon, digimon, etc... it would be neat if you already had some knowledge of anime before your friends catch on to it. Go ahead and get prepared. The day will come. ~s.a.o.s.~

Summary: Vampire Hunter D
Review: This movie was an excellent horror/anime! Japans anime movies are often an overlooked type of movies! But people who dont watch Anime dont know what they are missing! Anyways, this movie was excellent! But I thought the sequel was better! This movie has well drawn creatures, blood and gore, and action galore! I love this! Even though this movie is an anime, you forget that it is an anime! Check out the sequel as well!

Summary: An amazing classic
Review: Vampire Hunter D was the movie that first got me into anime. I saw it one night at about 1 in the morning on cable, and it changed me forever. It blends so many things wonderfully. It is set in the future where demons and vampires rule like lords in midevil times. D is the main character and is a half-vampire half human who roams the land to kill vampires for a price. Unwanted by humans and shunned by vampires he lives a cold and hard life alone. The majority of the movie takes place at night which gives it a dark under-tone. D is by far one of the coolest characters in all anime, with his unchanging facial expressions and strong silent attitude. Although his character isn't developed enough he is still very interesting. The animation is alright and the music is somewhat annoying, but you must remember it was made in 1985. It has some violence and a little bit of nudity, but over all it isn's too bad. The story line is great and follows a somewhat not so predictable plotline. The imagery is awesome, it is like the movie takes you to a different place and time. D also has a face in his hand that gives him advice and provides some humor in the film. Vampire Hunter D is a must see for any anime lover, and i definitly recomend you buy it.
