Summary: Subtitles different from orig. release, but still good
Review: _____I used to watch this movie over and over again when I was in high school. I'm glad it's been re-released, but one problem I have is that the subtitles are different from the original in many places. That kind of bothers me, because it really takes away from the feeling of a classic anime, at least for an old schooler like me. Still, the movie is great if you like old anime; be sure to pick up Gunbuster, Dangaioh and Akira while you're at it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my favorite Animes ever.
Review: A Vampire Hunter named " D" protects a young woman's life from the evil Count Magnus Lee. Entertaining, Gory, and all a around a good time for those who love Anime.

This is one of the best animes i've seen with Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll, The Professional: Golgo 13, The Hobbit, The Last Unicorn, Spawn: The Animated Series, Aeon Flux, and some others.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Dated, cliche, hokey....and still popular?
Review: Vampire Hunter D is one of the greatest mysteries in entertainment. It is a very limited and unrefined anime movie made in the mid-eighties dealing with a tragic vampire hunter in the future(which resembles the idyllic past) where he encounters his own limitations while battling corny neo-vampires. This is a movie that doesn't have an incredible, or even stimulating, plot, the animation is terrible, the color is bland, story structure is inadequate....yet it still holds charm for millions world wide. I agree with an earlier reviewer who claims that this is a cheap, accessible 'buckets of blood' gore/action film for younger viewers wanting to see something intense. Sadly it never gets THAT intense. Personally, I feel the goth crowds have never gotten a proper outlet for their particular entertainment genre so they revisit this barely passable artifact.

Don't get me wrong- if you see something in this film, its OK. I (apparently not alone) just can't believe D's popularity is just so avid when there are better examples of Vampire/Goth/Anime/Action which recieve NONE of this attention.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best movies out.
Review: If your looking to start watching Anime movies this is the movie to start with. It will definately get you hooked. Even though it is a classic it still holds strong with all of the new movies out. A must watch DVD.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible Movie
Review: I watch a TON of anime and this is probably the worst thing I have ever seen. Not only incredibly dated, but BORING. No mystique to it at all. I honestly don't understand the rave reviews for it. If nothing else, rent it first (if you can find it), but unless you know the history of this and are into for that reason only, avoid it. For you Anime newbies, do NOT get this, there is much better stuff out there.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Vampire Hunter D
Review: I had never seen this movie before I bought it, but I must say, for when it was made, this is a pretty good movie. Good animation, excellent story line. The only part of the movie that confused me is, well, I don't want to give away any of the plot twists, but it seems like an important part of the movie was clipped out. Which surprises me because usually the companies put everything they took out and the kitchen sink into a DVD version.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing Horror Anime Movie
Review: Vampire Hunter D is one of the best anime movies there is. With an awsome plot, and a great soundtrack this movie is a MUST HAVE. Vampire Hunter D is great for anyone who has ever seen an anime movie. Even if you have never seen an anime, don't miss out on this. Superb!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Tons of Blood and Gore - AWESOME!
Review: This movie was really good. Besides the animation not being the absolute best, it had great fight scenes with a lot of violence and the works. The plot isn't that complicated, but it was still a pretty good movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Blood & Guts
Review: Why is Vampire Hunter D, a more or less avrage anime considered a classic? Dose it have a great plot? Well developed charecters? Err... no ~_~. An anime that is most often watched by students looking for gore and buckets of blood, plus a crazy monster or two. The protagonist, "D" has little intesting to tell the viewer, and the antagonist, an old, old vampire with a fetish for humans is just boring. The stars come from the art, the dark feel of the anime and the supporting charecters, who more or less steal the show. Style is what "Vampire Hunter D" has. Yes, it has some problems, and the story alone can keep this from repeated viewings, but it has a little charm under it all. No "Classic", but of you like your anime dark and violent, D is worth the cash.
