This is because Trinity Blood is in fact quite dry and boring for what it is about. Normally a plot like that would be played with much intense politics or more like Ghost in the Shell but instead they made it all philosophical and shit which makes a dry setting even more dry. Needless to say it really is slow for being hyped the way it is I remember the previews made it seem like a story about a badass Cyborg but in fact I notice it focuses on a character by the name of Father Nightrode or something like that can't remember.
The only appeal this had to me was the mythical creatures beyond that it is a pretty poorly executed anime. Almost forgot to add that the mythical creatures are portrayed quite accuratley to written myth.
The only thing i like about trinity is that the father guy turns into some sort of super anti-vampire thinger-ma-jinger. He looks pretty sweet but the whole thing is about "god" and shit. Last night it sounded like the show was coming to an end. Everyone agreed to stay on the ship and they're going to attack the main empire or something now. I can't wait ^.^
Yeah thats what I meant by the "Mythilogical Creatures" part they looked kinda cool, but yeah I am surprised that no one knows about Nightrodes true form since it's a common myth in Europe...it's like no one has heard of Vampires who feed off of other Vampires...
