Vampire Knight Guilty 12


Ok, I say this a lot..but..BEST. EPISODE. IN. THE. SEASON. YES! Which is to be expected since the next episode ends Guilty.

This will be a rather short entry. This episode really was straight forward. Since we're getting near the end of the Rido arc (I think) they're answering a lot more questions. Which usually doesn't mean anything, but there aren't many NEW questions appearing. I'm really hoping there is another season after this. Since the manga is still going on I don't want them to pull a Fruits Basket and barely touch down on the story. However, if they do, I will certainly read the manga because this has to be one of the best shojos out there.

Ok, ok, it's official. Chairman is a badass. WE ALL KNEW HE HAD IT IN HIM SOMEWHERE! Cross the vampire hunter...just WOW. I want to know HOW he knew Juuri. Obviously he knew her before all of this happened. Was he good friends with her? Did he help her after Rido took advantage of her? I have a feeling she is the reason that he stopped being a Vampire Hunter. The reason he made the academy.

Yagari also knew Juuri it seems. Part of me wonders if she was always a vampire. Maybe she was a human at one time? Or even a hunter? Even though I'm not sure how people are turned into vampires without being Level E's like Zero. Then again it seems that Vampire HUNTERS that are bitten can control themselves better if they're strong enough. That's the conclusion I came to after this episode.

Zero's arm spazzing out the way it did was cool and creepy at the same time. It looked like it was going to EXPLODE. I was trying to figure out..was that the level E inside him trying to escape, or was it something to do with absorbing Ichiru? That had happened before he absorbed Ichiru though..so I assume it was the level E. Especially since most level E's skin is constricted over the bones like that.

When he asked Yuuki to 'slay him' I assumed she was going to chop off his arm. ESPECIALLY when she starts barreling toward him like she was going to hack him in half! Then they pan out and his arm is still attached to him..HOW DOES THAT WORK? DID SHE POKE HIM AND THE EVIL OOZED OUT LIKE A PIMPLE?? XD I love this series. Really I do.

OH, AND NOW WE KNOW THE TRUTH. KANAME CAN TURN PEOPLE INTO CONFETTI. IT'S LIKE A VAMPIRE PARTY! YAAAY. *Stare* *POOF* *colored sparkles rain down* BEST. POWER. EVER!!!!

Now back to serious. It seems that in the Vampire world, drinking from somebody when they don't want you to is almost as bad as rape. Rido had bitten Juuri without her permission at some point, and she had screamed for Haruka, who I assume was her husband (I KNOW HIS NAME NOW, YAY!), or whatever he was to her at that time. So he's HAD that blood before. Now he needs Yuuki's which is also Juuri's by being her daughter AND I think that Yuuki has a lot of her mothers blood in her from when she had locked the pure blood away. I want to know WHY Rido needs/needed that blood. I know right now he needs it to regain the rest of his power, but what caused him to drink from Juuri before? Besides taking pleasure in her pain. Then again that might of been the only reason at the time. He just seems to...strategic for that.

Even though I admit, when he was going to make Yuuki cry out for the one she loved and she stopped to think about it, I was on the edge of my seat. Then of course (as I predicted, wahaha) Zero appears and saves her. BUT WHY. WHY COULDN'T HE LET HER FINISH HER THOUGHT PROCESS? BLOW OF HIS SHOULDER IN 5 SECONDS, PLEASE. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHO SHE LOVES. XD

The character development in these past couple episodes is great. Aidou seems to actually like Yuuki as a person now. He's not forcing it, he actually WANTS to protect her. It's amusing when you think about how much he hated her at the start of the series. I love that kind of development. LOVE.

AND WHO CALLED IT? WHO? Yuuki managed to use Artemis, OF COURSE. Then she gets herself in trouble, Zero comes and saves her. Then she hacks (OR PRETENDS TO) of his arm and the incredible hulk arm is gone. THEN HIS GUN STARTS GLOWING. THAT WAS COOL. IT'S LIKE A GIANT BALL OF LIGHT IS FUSED TO THE BARREL OF HIS GUN.

I'm really glad that Ichiru DID care for Zero, and even though I'm sad he's no longer going to be in the series, I'm actually happy with the outcome. The idea of them being fused together like they were supposed to have been is both tragic, and sweet. Since Ichiru willingly gave himself up for it, and seemed to want it to be that way all along.

Oh, and Kaname realizes that he has formed bonds with other people. Maybe he isn't such a selfish asshole.

OH, AND ICHIJOU IS GOING TO GO AGAINST HIS GRANDFATHER. THAT IS EPIC. I love Ichijou. He has the best eyes in the entire series.

So much for a short entry. xD

Yuuki has finally started taking care of herself a bit. I'm happy.

ZeroxYuuki, FOR THE WIN!!!!
