I really liked episode one despite it being only a raw at the moment (it's a good thing that I can understand Japanese ). It's a nice little combinatioon of humor, drama, comedy, and even a little bit of action, and it looks like this series is going to go in a good direction.
Episode 1

The only thing I could do without is Hazuki/Luna's cat ear headband thing she almost always has on . I mean..........a vampire with cat ears?! And just how do those two match up?!

Yes the same for me,
Episode 1

but it's a plus for all oni-chan/catgirl fans, just look at the OP. Neko mimi mode, is it. I personally like her for being so devious, which is opposite to her innocent look. As I'm a fan of "devious/cunning" people this show gets + points.

I'll give this a 8 out of 10. I love the kind of music they use (+ points) and the animation they use is ok too, it fits the setting.

I like this show,

there is nothing like a cute and devious girl.

I'm no expert, but mahou seems to have done an ok sub, this being their first project and all.

People, please mention the episode you're puting spoilers for

As far as topic in question, I think it's to emphasize the cuteness and make people easier to give in to her charms

ep 01

I think the headband make her look cuter. After all, she's like a typical vampire (dark and gloomy) but cute and devious

[Shinji103]

Well, it's true that the headband is there to emphasize cuteness, and I'm all for extended cuteness in girls that are already really cute . The headband is just a little over the top for my personal tastes (besides which, there's still the fact that a vampire with cat ears is just a little odd ). Also, the opening song (not the opening animation) is just a little too cutesy for me . And finally, I welcome Hazuki/Luna's personality: it's nice to finally have a cute main female character who isn't dumb as a brick or something (Miharu from Girls Bravo, and others.....too many others to list here ), but is instead clever and deceptive.

For the scale score (which I forgot to give in my first post), I give this show a 9.5/10. Now if only the episodes (at least the raws) would be released for download faster. Episode 2 has been out in Japan since Teusday the 11th (approximately Monday our time), and it still hasn't been released as a raw yet .

So true.

One of the better series from what I've seen. Art reminded me a bit of Soultaker.. concept too.. Better yet: It might just be an excellent recommendation for it.

9/10 is my score based on one ep. musicwise, artwise and storywise it is interesting enough

I just downloaded and watched the Chinese-subbed (I think) version of Tukuyomi episode 2. Geez, the subbers here are so slow lately :mad: . The episode has been out since Teusday, and the Chinese subbers had it up for download on Wednesday, but we still don't have it :mad: . Anyway it looks like the series is still going good. I don't really want to go into spoilers here because the episode is still not available for download from animesuki.com or anywhere (those slow-@$$es really need to move their situated butts on getting this series in at least a raw format to download :mad: ).

[Shinji103]

Just a few spoilers

Ep2

Apparently, Hazuki/Luna are actually 2 seperate personalities in the same body, one being the full vampire (Luna) and the other being the cutesy girl (Hazuki). Luna can't exist outside the seal placed on the castle though, so when Hazuki leaves the castle she leaves her necklace behind and Luna with it (I think Luna was actually inside the necklace, which is why the necklace kind of changed whenever Hazuki and Luna switched personalities). In the end, Hazuki ends up living with Kouhei, much to Kouhei's displeasement, due to the fact that he saw Hazuki's tomboyish side when she failed to make him her slave . Anyway, it seems that episode 3 is going to be about Kouhei accepting Hazuki into his house.

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE SUB THE FREAKING EPISODE 2 ALREADY???!!!! IT'S BEEN OUT FOR A WHOLE FREAKING WEEK!!!!!!!! AND MY MAIN SOURCE OF DOWNLOADING RAWS (www.mirkx.com/1.php) HAS APPARENTLY MOVED AGAIN, WITHOUT ANY HINT AS TO WHERE IT WENT!!!! And because of that I'm also cut off from a good supplier of Elfen Lied episodes. Does anybody know where I can at least get the raw of 13 of Elfen Lied when it is released? It's the only one I need (I know it hasn't aired in Japan yet, I just want to know where I can find it when it comes out). And all hopes of getting a subbed ep3 of Tsukuyomi anytime soon are pretty much dust at this rate (ep3 aired this morning in Japan).

[dreadful]

actually EL airs on weekends and raw been out for at least a day though i don't think i'm in leberty to point out the source since it is licensed in the united states. After all, anime-planet is a forum site, nota distributor or torrents or releases. As far as subbed ep 02 of tsukuyomi been out since 16th by adtrw,i would recmmend searching baka-updates since they do post torrents sometimes. To your joy or dismay (depends on your preferentce) the file has softsubs and in ogm format so it's up to you whether to watch it subbed or raw. If you need help with .ogm file type check faq/tutorial section of the forum.
