Review:
The other anime based off of an ero-game for the Fall 2010 season. This one started off with a huge impact, and ended with an even bigger one. Although I expected a mix of The World God Only Knows and Amagami SS, it turned out totally different. First of all, if I didn't know about this anime well enough, I'd think that this is a hentai anime. Has an unbelievable amount of ecchi scenes. The interesting thing is, it actually becomes relevant towards the latter half of the series. The scenario is just well written, and although the topic may be a little too explicit and unethical for some, if you have the guts it sure is a worthwhile to watch this. The music and the background scenery is just great, if I had 3 hands I'd give it a 3 thumbs up. The last few episodes really got my heart, and it'll be an unforgettable series for me. Tell me what you thought about the last episode.
Recommended for audiences above the age 16, and can deal with shocking subjects and themes.

Review:
Based on a Ero-game by AUGUST that sold over ten thousand copies, this was one of two animes of the Fall 2010 seasons based on an successful Ero-game. The opening music is great, composed by RUCCA and sung by the goddess-like Lia. The graphic quality was stable throughout the series, and for an Ero-game based anime, the intensity and the dramatic effect was great...up until episode 11, one before the last episode. The last episode wasn't badly made, unlike many romcom animes and perhaps better than how Akane-iro ni somaru saka ended, but it could have been done better. It was a good series nonetheless, I don't expect a second season, but it makes me want to play the original game. Oh, and even if there are vampires in the story, it doesn't suck like the you-know-what series.
