Thoughts on "Vampire Knight" the manga, post-chapter 93
The problem with having a popular running serial manga...
The story drags on and on and on until it is devoid of any structure and recognizable plot. And then personalities start to blur. The art is the only thing going for this series at the moment.
It's like a whole 40 chapters was forcibly added onto VK. What is this? Naruto?

Thoughts on Vampire Knight, chapter 23
W-ell. Personally I could not think of a better ending to tie up all the loose ends....well, maybe half of all the loose ends. Most of them are still pretty loose. The ending was bad but by chapter 70-something, it was a mess anyway so yeah.
I get the feeling the plot was meant to show that humans and vampires could coexist and even fall in love. But in the end, Kaname is just a sinister I(albeit pretty-boy-in-disguise) pedobear and Zero wears a poker face with occasionally shifting eyebrows (acute or horizontal angles) and Yuki gets a better haircut near the end (which I quite liked)...but someone please explain how Yuki suddenly went from short -> long hair when she transformed into a vampire...in the space of seconds.
I'm still convinced the art was what got me going - though the whole idea of "vampire politics" was quite interesting on its own. And yet so predictable. And all the characters were all so hawt it was impossible not to imagine them in all sorts of kinky scenarious. Or even fluffy ones. Well, if the mangaka ever teams up with someone else who's written a good story, I'll be sure to read it.
Until then. VK!
