    Viewers! It's that time of year again, Hellmouth, AKA the best time of year. We've got a fun line up this time around, of course starting with my look at Bloodlust. Classic fans of the channel may remember Grant did a "story you never knew" on bloodlust back in the day, but like little Mikey from the Goonies, it's my time, my time down here to talk about one of my favourite films. If you enjoy, I hope you check out last week's video on cross game. TH-cam kinda killed it super dead, but it's a video we all put a lot into.
    This time we were joined by Nies to get this out to you on time (video credits in description) and as you can see we took on a sponsor. right now money's tight so we have to do that in order to pay editors and maintain rent etc. If you'd like to help us out, i recommend checking out the patreon! We'll be watching bloodlust tonight with all our patrons!

    Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust is the pinnacle of animation, and storytelling. So many moving parts, but it all comes together. Even the team that made the recent Castlevania animated series, look to this film, and many more as an inspiration.
    The animation in this film is a marvel.
    Madhouse is just so dang good, along with the amazing collaboration with the series creator & artist.
    Hopefully someday soon, Vampire Hunter D will return with another mission. It has been way too long.

    In the English dub of the original OVA, Mika also uses the term 'dunpeal". Always hit me as weird since as you said the term dhampir is also present in the dub, likely just a function of it being missed in the proofreading.

    14:20 I think a good reason they chose demon death chase is because the 90's were absolutely flooded with vampire films, but Bram Stoker's Dracula was still the most influential at the time. The similarities between Vlad visiting Mina and Meier taking Charlotte are most likely on purpose (a lone carriage, the water freezing, flowers wilting, etc) so even in Japan the transition of vampires from monsters to romantic outcasts was still felt. I don't know if western audiences were taken into consideration during the film's creation but it also helps familiarize them with the setting by seeing something they already have a good grasp of.

The eerie foreshadowings of her in the middle of the film, especially the bats that seem to be stalking Meierling's carriage, and the mysterious cutaways showing details of what are later revealed to be her tomb, are totally chilling. D'Ambrosio's music throughout is nothing short of thrilling, too - worthy of the rest of the art, which is spectacular. Loved listening to your video, loved reading the other comments.

    I adore this film, and it rocked my shit when a classmate handed me her DVD copy some twenty years ago and said "here watch this, it's the best shit ever." She was quite right. My very strong memory of this film was what convinced me to give the Castlevania show a shot, since the visuals of the latter are so evocative of the former. Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust is still to me the greatest vampire film ever made.

    In my opinion, this is probably the most beautiful looking anime ever made.

    I love that you utilized music from the Castlevania series for these Vampire Hunter D reviews/retrospectives! Without Vampire Hunter D, Castlevania wouldn't exist as we know it.

    Obviously I don't expect you to cover everything in these videos but I was surprised when you did you cover my favorite scene from this movie, when D buys a horse. There are so many small touches in this scene that communicates so much.

    Bloodlust should be required viewing for anyone that is a fan of classic anime!

    After watching Vampire Hunter D in the early 90s, I was so excited about this coming out and made sure I bought the DVD as soon as I could. I love how much the atmosphere of both films just oozes out and you can feel how terrible and grimey everything is in the D universe.

    glad to know that the audio issues were just part of the experience. I legit thought it was just a flaw with the ports I found of it

    I had just watched this after watching the last D video you guys did. I think I’m about to rewatch it again!! Solid as always!!

    Dhampir was mistranslated as dampiel in the original dub of the OVA. It wasn't until Sentai Filmworks made a new dub in 2015 that they corrected that error. Bloodlust didn't get a new dub for its blu ray release.

    Hittin'em with the Symphony Of The Night soundtrack like a baowse. As always, you bring the absolute freshest anime and manga focused programming. I saw this in the theater in 2001 IN IOWA. Thank Tezuka for the Fleur Independent Cinema, where I also saw Knockin' On Heaven's Door.
