Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase
(Makes Twilight series look good)
The story is about the relationship between freelance photographer Kouhei Morioka and Hazuki, a teenager who descends from a royal vampire lineage. At the beginning of the story, Kouhei travels to a castle in Germany to take photographs of paranormal phenomena for his friend Hiromi, who is the editor of an occult magazine. At the castle, Kouhei meets Hazuki, who feeds on Kouhei's blood and claims him as her unwilling servant. Although this "blood pact" is supposed to bind Kouhei to Hazuki as her obedient slave, her act has no effect on Kouhei. Following an action-packed sorcerers' battle in which Kouhei and his cousin manage to free Hazuki from her captivity in the dreary castle, Hazuki travels to Tokyo, and takes up residence with Kouhei in his grandfather's house in Japan. Hazuki claims that, because she fed on his blood, Kouhei is now her servant, but Kouhei continually refuses to obey her, especially when he thinks her requests are unreasonable. Despite their fighting, the relationship between the duo progresses over time — even in the face of repeated attacks by opposing vampires — until Kouhei becomes determined to protect Hazuki from the vampire servants of her family, who are determined to retrieve her by whatever means necessary.

Oh my god, I’d rather sit and watch Twilight than watch this. This anime was boring and had no plot line, whatsoever. I guess…it is kind of like Twilight in some respects. /shot by many twi-girls. This is purely a filler anime for all your fan boys who fantasize about girl vampires. Hazuki is hardly a vampire at all! Sure, she’s got strong magical powers but, she never wants to bite Kouhei! WHAT KIND OF VAMPIRE DOESN’T WANT TO DRINK THEIR VICTIM’S BLOOD?! That’s not a vampire! If it were me, I would’ve torn his throat out!
Kouhei’s uncle makes Hazuki wear cat ears when she works in the antique shop. He’s a perverted old man but, claims he makes her wear the ears for the sole reason of hiding the fact that she’s a vampire. DOES ANYONE SEE THE PROBLEM HERE? How are cat ears going to hide the fact that you’ve got sharp, pointy teeth?! This anime is bad, I tell you, BAAAAD.
The only positive thing you get out of this anime is a wonderfully composed soundtrack by Yuki Kajiura. Other than that, can’t say too many good things about Tsukuyomi. I’d have to say that Tsukihime was a better vampire anime and it’s done by the same person!
I’m really sad I wasted money on the entire box set. /sad face
