Description
From Dark Horse:
Set several decades after the events in the popular Blood: The Last Vampire anime film, an amnesiac Saya Otonashi lives as a seemingly normal high school student with her adoptive family in Okinawa. Horrible nightmares are the only hints at the violent life she once led, but her past is about to catch up with her and awaken the merciless warrior within.
Chiropterans--powerful shape-changing creatures who need and crave blood-threaten humanity once more, and a mysterious organization called the Red Shield needs Saya's deadly sword skills and mysterious powers to aid in the fight against these beasts. As her submerged abilities begin to reawaken and as she seeks to regain her memories, Chiropteran warriors are guided by a mysterious leader to threaten Saya and her loved ones.
Asuka Katsura's manga series successfully expands upon the original Production I.G/Aniplex feature, delivering moments of jarring violence and thrilling action in a tale that spans several centuries.

| Good to read after watching the anime by djbreezy on August 20th, 2009, 5:29pm |

| It's faster paced than the anime, which might be pleasing to some. However I found that the ending felt a bit rushed, compared to the anime. The artwork was gorgeous, and some of the plot was changed. Some parts I didn't like, but it included more hajixsaya scenes, which is a plus. Overall, every blood+ fan should read this. |

i actually enjoyed the manga more than the anime series even though the manga series kinda was way too short in the end...but the manga ending was better than the anime ending since it was not as gross or depressing

| Better pacing than the TV show by cylonToaster on November 12th, 2006, 2:02pm |
|
The blood+ manga is a much faster, enjoyable, read than its TV counterpart. As of volume 1 there are no chapter long angst soliloquies, which was one of the reasons the show suffered.
It also looks like the storyline with begin to diverge from the TV storyline as the volumes continue. So, to sum it all up: the art is good, the pacing is much much better, and it's well worth a try.
