A kiss is nice but vampire kisses can be bloody erotic…

Anime
Strike the Blood III BD Volume 2 releases today and nylon66 has early images.
Unfortunately, it’s a 10-episode OVA instead of a TV series. And there will be months between volumes (like with StB II) and the final volume won’t be out until Fall 2019. Fortunately, StB III has more fanservice scenes than the TV series. Thus continuing a trend that started with Strike the Blood OVA and Strike the Blood II.
The surprise is the lack of nipples. StB has been pretty good about having some nipples even if just a few every couple of episodes ever since it shifted from a TV series to OVA series. Not with this BD volume unfortunately. Hopefully they will make up for it in future volumes. In the meantime, there is a more than usual amount of underwear and vampire “kisses” (sucking blood) fanservice.

Impressions
My very early impression is that I was surprised by the lack of nipples even if just a few but the additional underwear shots, vampire sucking and blushing faces is sensual. Nice. And more new girls on top of that. Including an elf girl? Very nice? And Asagi as an idol girl? Crazy nice?
Is it just me or do the faces of the main girls seem to be more derpy than they used to be? More like CG and less like 2D? Especially in episode 02. Why? Why mess with a good thing??? I’m hoping that’s improved in episodes 03 and 04.
Strike the Blood staff seems to have a good handle on what works for them. Plot that doesn’t forget the PLOT. But plot and characters first and foremost. With PLOT in measured doses. Which works as long as they continue to deliver quality over quantity.
I’m a fan. And I still find StB entertaining to watch again and make media from.
Notes
This is just an early look at StB III Volume 2 done for news purposes.
