"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

Best vampire anime: Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust or Hellsing Ultimate? (lemmy.zip)

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (2000) and Hellsing Ultimate (2005) are both amazing vampire animes and I highly recommend either one. The animation style in both is incredible. But be aware that they each have earlier animes (Vampire Hunter D in 1985 and Hellsing in 2001) which aren't as good. I'd watch Bloodlust and Ultimate first and only watch the originals if you want more.

Also, I really just wanted to see if there were any Vampire Knight or Trinity Blood fans out there that I could annoy with this question.

It's obviously Hellsing Ultimate Abridged.

Vampire Hunter D for sure. Hellsing often feels like it's going outrageous stuff just for the sake of it

I've heard Vampire Survivors is pretty good

I choose both, aka Trinity Blood.

Is Shiki an option? Because I absolutely loved that one

I've never seen Shiki before, what's it about? Why is it so good?

Vampire hunter D, not even a question

Trolling to suggest Vampire Dormitory, but Interviews with Monster Girls brings a cute slice of life aspect to the genre.

I have the Vampire Bund box set somewhere but bought it more out of commitment to the franchise than to actually figure out how to play a BD on a Linux PC.

Seriously, there's so much more to explore than just action. I can imagine a modern vampire character bring frustrated by the world seeing his culture as nothing but violence and a specific native cuisune and turning it into a comic rant or an entire arc of exploration and worldbuilding.
