Gothic Lolita loli vampire manga “Dance in the Vampire Bund” is set to be animated by Shaft, but the content of the actual manga has swiftly drawn more attention, being as it is packed full of flat loli vampire action in highly dubious situations.
Just how dubious is readily apparent below:


“To prove her suitability as a bride, once every ten years she must be…”
“Prove… Just how on earth!?”


Observers are wondering just how far the original work will survive the transition to loli anime…

Looking forward to it. Even with the -15 hype modifier for having "vampire" in its title it's still one of the more original ones to date.
Well yeah, the Shaft hype modifier is +100 so it counteracts the vampire thing.
dont forget the delicious caek +xxxx
quadruple x 0_o
+100 for crimson eyes and blood...
thats just me i guess
You and the other freaks that use lousy horror as turn on.
Once you start visiting SC on a regular basis, you lose the privilege of using the word freak as an insult.
We should put that in the site policy.Artefact?
lololololololol calm down he just ordinary people lol
btw how bloody this anime will be??
i wish this anime not produced in zetsubou style
Ehh, Shaft. I would approach them with a sense of cautious ambivalence. Their animation style since Tsukuyomi has more or less become a visual representation of ADHD, and it feels really cheesy. Episodes of Maria Holic/Sayonara/Hidamari tend to feel like they drag on as a result. I'll give them points for Rec and the so-far-so-good Bakemonogatari, though.
interesting.
Oh what, Rec was done by SHAFT? Crazy.
Rec was good anime.
I don't agree that it's cheesy; I find it unique, and it's a large inspiration for my cartoons (though with less oh god that was like 8 paragraphs how can i read that in three seconds). My only problem with SHAFT is all the stupid things they add in because they think it's funny, like the expanded alaria, which I heard was not in the Maria Holic manga.
Bakemonogatari's art style is amazing to me. I wish more animators would do something similar.
Bakemonogatari is probably my favourite anime this season, primarily for the sharp dialogue, but the alternative art style works in its favour, too.
Bakemonogatari is awesome. Shaft is awesome. I doubt they'll come with something that isn't awesome :3
i've always thought Dance in the Vampire Bund Woolf become nothing more than a manga because of its contents, but I guess I was wrong. Looking forward to this :D
glascle, there is alaria in the mangu.
i must say shaft maintains great continuity with the original work of the manga yet adding stuff that's consistent with the series. plus the great ending eyecatches with different artists is always keen.
I found the expanding alaria hilarious.
What is certain is that we can expect something new and unexpected from Shaft! Whether good or bad, its still worthy of praise.
Vampire + Loli X Bondage = FTW.
I'll look froward to this.
Why does this Storm Wing guy have to comment on the first or second comment of every single article
Why do you have to point it out? o_o
why do you ask for this?
"Why does this Storm Wing guy have to comment on the first or second comment of every single article"
it cant be helped!
"Why do you have to point it out? o_o"
it cant be helped!
its not like he comments on any of the other comments. it doesnt matter what the comment actually is about, its because its the first comment. so its pretty obvious storm wing is seeking attention.
Why are you so dumb?
Gunzaku, i salute you!
Emo kids make me hate vampire stuff normally, but there are some I like.
LIKE TWILIGHT RIGHT!!?!?!?!
AND THEN THAT MOON CRAP RIGHT!!?!?!?!
Vampires don't sparkle...those twilight retards
Yeah, Twilight ruined it the most for me. At my High School, I saw people wearing T-Shirts saying stuff like "Edward is my Husband" or "Vote Jacob and die." Every emo kid wore one and it was too the point where I would kill them if I could legally.
I used to like Vampire Knight, but the constant barrage from emo kids reading the manga trying to talk to me made me despise the series. Maybe Dance in the Vampire Bund won't have that problem for me though.
"Vampires don’t sparkle"
^ Word.
I seriously hate that shit.
oh, and I want one of them chairs. just pull the ol' "does this cloth smell like chloroform to you?" and strapem' in for a ride!
Thats stupid. Emo is self-pitying over-emotional faggots. Vampires are Gothic and satanic. VERY different worlds.
You're not much better. Considering you don't know what emo is either.
i suppose emo = you? facepalm
Draken doesn't realize emo kids like to try and emulate goth kids. Or goth kids have emo tendencies.
Either way it's all kid stuff. I mean, they're 15-year-old fags anyway, might as well let them be into vampires and black clothes like it somehow makes them unique.
To be fair, I'd be pretty depressed too, If I couldn't dress myself.
When The Cure did it, it was a good stage show, and free publicity. When anyone else, especially someone young, does it, it's just the KISS army with added wangst. And somehow vampires got thrown into the scene, maybe as a marketing gimmick. But it can't be helped.
emo=(mostly) cry for attention.
-vampires: hated by humans, cant live in light, constantly hunted and killed... but also immortality, special powers, ect.
there only wanna-be underdogs.
enjoy your high school, bro
I feel sorry for the actual Goths in countries where Emo numbers are increasing. Real Goths are actually fun and interesting adults. Emos are just a bunch of College and High school kids watching Dark movies aimed at children and buying Invader Zim shirts.
For those Emos out there, You must be really dark to shop exclusively at The banana republic and Hot topic.......Really Dark......
BTW) Vampire Loli in mechanical chair......Nice!
i don't know what goths you hang out with but i only know the "life is pointless" or "why even bother living, your only being used..." crap
if they hate life so much then die, there almost as bad as (fight the man by doing nothing) hippies...
Melty Blood X Tsukihime = Awesomeness!!
Hell right!
Too bad Kamanashi didn't hear it ^^; LOL
so true.
Not exactly, it not always loli as she can become older if she wants too. You'll see it in the manga and especially during the fight scene.
Jesus-crucified-on-a-stick-Christ,that is an exceptionally round head... oh yeah, and the rest is disturbing too.
Hopefully will survive fully, and with aditional perspectives... hmmm
egads, another pink haired loli vamp show :|
Fingers crossed it won't be raided by censors.
or at the very least uncensored in the dvd and blu ray
this manga is pretty good
I was about to ask if I was the only person who had read it before.
nah, ur not alone, i like it too
I'm waiting for the Volume 4
As am I
I'm waiting for Vol 5 to hit :( - devoured this manga with a insane quickness.
Then Shinbo will come, and mindfuck us all :D
I can just imagine how the OP is right now
I am interested to see how the anime will turn out. Hopefully, not too much brutal censors, but I just don't know. :/
gothic + Loli = Great and true the manga is good
"gothic + Loli = Great and true the manga is good"
I approve. We rarely see stuffs with a gothloli heroine.
Actually you can't call that gothloli since everything is wrong at the clothes so it fails at the anatomy of gothic lolita clothing.
Good becasue I don't understand gothics and will have a happy life if I keep on not understanding them.
Wrong. Gothic + Loli + SHAFT! = awesome
"Wrong. Gothic + Loli + SHAFT! = awesome"
quoted for truth!
I like it already. Have to get the manga now...
i always liked the manga. i'm excited about the anime
Loli vampire half naked, hmmm scary need to buy some garlic
anon is a bit scared of half naked loli vampire?!
Looks good^^
Or maybe it's because I'm getting too perverted? xD
But if Shaft is doing this, then quality is assured. It's good to watch (or read) something darker than sweet moeblobs once in a while.
Can't wait to see how this would turn out
so um...exactly what is going on in those pages?
Well, my dear Anon, I presume they are inspecting to ensure that her "maiden's head" aka the hymen is still intact.
I swear if this is really true I'm going to be so ticked.
That would be true, my good sir. That is, in fact, what is taking place.
The reasons, I will keep to myself. You will find the why in due time.
so then why the hell dont they do it like normal people? jeez, tearing off the clothing and the straping to the device....
Because they're freaking vampires...
Uh, it's exactly like the gynocology exams that I got as a child infrequently as a little girl from hormonal troubles (the vulva was growing shot, the urethra opening began to close, urinating was difficult, etc) ... and then the pap smears I get later as an adult.
Except mine didn't involve binding the ankles. :/
Which chapter are the scans above from?
you sick horny mofo. lols
As if 90% of the people here weren't wondering the same. Please leave me my single joy in life. :/
I want to have a loli in a box!
It's in volume 4, which just got released in the US (got my copy the other day). Not sure about a chapter number.
vol 4 towards the end.
Pages: 107, 108. 109, 110.
This is an excellent manga title. Let's hope they translate it well onto film w/out dilution...
UNICEF will fight for the rights of loli vampires. ^_^
I like the way this looks.
I don't like the sound of this hymen stuff.
I should have known to expect the worst when I read it in raw.
Sounds hot, but looks more like hentai... or ecchi anime. Ecchi anime usually sux, because they provide too much fan service. I hope this isn't the case for this series.
Not as much as one'd think. There's enough service, intrigue and action for everyone, I think.
The artist does do H, actually.
He's done one about MMORPGs and simulated reality. Don't remember the name. Was actually pretty good. And I don't mean porn-wise.
oooh i see nozomu tamaki.
"himegami" and "koneko" made by him are highly recommended reads!
but its the reverse for most hentai, they focus complete on the sex and put in a crap or "INCREDIBLY" simple story
HOLY SHIT! That DFC is beyond FLAT! Concave?! (=_=)
DFC ftw!
loli check!
nude check!
sexual theme check!
vampire check!
gothic check!
Bondage check!
Feminist and UN member that seeks evey opportunity to ban loli and saw the chance to boast their claim if the anime airing check!
fapping?
Check!

more loli crap
I can tell none of you fuckers on this board have daughters.
I have a younger sister. Not loli anymore, though.
And you're reading it because.....?
I wouldn't count on very many of them ever mating.
You have Loli? You must introduce her to us sankakus BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!1
0_o STFU and GTFO You loserfag ;)
Because Tepes is a child. A person thousands of years old is a child, right.
In the world of magical unicorns and what not. :P
What's having a daughter or not got to do with it? I have a daughter but I still like caek.
Why can't she put on some damn clothes?!
The guy who draws this is a pervert.
The first chapter makes it quite obvious that she simply thinks that heavy clothing is uncomfortable in certain situations.
Why put on clothes just because you can? God forbid you'd have to see a naked human body...
well maybe when ever you see a loli, you think, of daughter of small sister.
but in soviet Russia, that just makes it better!
So...what chapter are these images from?
I forget the chapter, but it's volume 4. I'm re-reading right now.
Funny thing about it is this manga is already in the US. Seven Seas brought it out. I think they kept it uncensored as well. Were on the 4 volume as of now. Funny when it's the same company that jumped off Kodomo no Jikan.
Still, the themes presented in Kodomo no Jikan are definitely something that would have certain people turning heads towards Seven Seas.
It'd have been PR Hell, man. It might have cost SS a lot of money, time and effort to deal with the potential storm.
It's a great manga, despite the mostly objectionable material it might contain on occasion.
I think it was a wise decision from SS to drop the manga. Regrettable? Yes, most definitely. But wise nonetheless.
agreed
Where i can find the manga?
Here:
http://gomanga.com/manga/danceinthevampirebund.php
Oh FUCK YEAH! I just started reading the manga recently, and I am overjoyed that Shaft is animating this. Though I too fear that it may be toned down too much.
as an expert in this field, I must say this is the least attractive vampire loli.
I think its just her hair style that makes her look the least attractive
Oh God, this is that volume 4 I read in raw.
I had no idea that scene as as dirty as I thought it was.
Why on EARTH would a vampire as old as dirt be sleeping with lots of guys like the hedonous vampire she is? If this is really true, I'm very disappointed in Volume 4.
that is racy for even Japanese TVs I see a huge adaption decay for this to even be scene on TV
The manga is awesome.
I'm glad Shaft is doing this. Even more glad with Shinbo.
Volume 4 sucks though if this is what the theme is really about.
But I do agree with what you said.
Obviously you've never even read it since bondage is nowhere to be found nor is it a theme of the series. This headline is just another misleading headline by yours truly.
And you mean volume 4 became more awesome with this scene.
I read volume 4 in RAW. I honestly have only guesses as to what it's about. Nor did I imply that it was about bondage. I said
I've read volumes 1-3 translated and 4 in RAW. I'm reading chapter 20 right now, now that it appears to be translated, mournfully and worrying to see if what this article implies is true.
“To prove her suitability as a bride, once every ten years she must be…”
THAT'S what I'm referring to. If they're checking for her virginity, that's really sickening. I can only hope this is some weird vampire related thing instead of related to old, heinous double standards.
I think you made way too many assumptions about my words. And the assumptions you made shouldn't have been natural assumptions to make.
Not entirely assumption, I inferred. Your comment tells me that you haven't read volume 4. Otherwise, you'd have left such a comment. Even if you've read only the raw, it's clear that such a thing isn't a theme or anything dramatic.
You say that's what you're referring to...but I don't see any indication, much less any context clues that suggests so. Your quote, "Volume 4 sucks though if this is what the theme is really about." What is "this" This what? Logically, it's clear that you are referring to what's in the headline.
It's just a chastity examination... And it's both vampire and plot related. What's more, there isn't a double standard at play here; it's duty.
Yes fans might destroy all the manga and merchandise if they find out she is "unpure", have to keep checking.
So it really is eh?
Absolutely disgusting.
Words cannot tell how incredibly disappointed I am.
Why do you keep going on about being "disappointed"? Yeah, it's a horrible thing to do - and a horrible way to do it - but that's the damn point. It's supposed to show how crazy, paranoid, and desperate those three old vampires are. It's supposed to make you hate them, what with them being the villains and everything.
Ah, you said it was "duty". I thought this might have been some sort of twisted tradition. But I suppose if that's the point of the theme for it to be a horrifying theme, then I suppose it's better and I'm not as disappointed.
It's still disappointing in the fact I had hoped she's have been able to be a true vampiric hedonist like the show implies.
I was kind of hoping that she's be an extreme cougar of sorts. I'd rather have a different reason to hate them, honestly. I mean, dadgum, thousands of years without getting laid, how sad is that?
Wait, so your disappointment was the thought of her actually being a virgin, and *not* sleeping around town?
There's a virgin checking scene in Luc Besson's Joan of Arc. Why is that so bad? It is a good way to prevent husbands from killing their wives in some societies...
I like the manga but see nothing but fail in the anime.
But it's made by SHAFT!
Funny thing is this is the one manga I couldn't find scans for this series.
I might actually buy the book
Hmmm...I do wonder why this is the one comment that won't go through today.
I hope this one will be only released as OVA. We need some loli uncensored stuff ^^
I'ved liked the manga so far. Can't wait to see it.
Who is Shaft?
A bad motha shut yo mouth.
But I'm talkin' about Shaft!
Then I can dig it.
Artefect, you should add a note about the manga being licensed in English by Seven Seas.
This manga is really good so I look forward to it becoming an anime
First Bakemonogatari, now this~!!! :3
I love you, Shaft.. So it's time for me to say goodbye, KyoAni (for Hawhohi at least).
shaft is on a roll
shaft not supposed to take this ...their art style isn't fit for this kind of story
seriously
It's like saying Picasso couldn't do Realism because he was a Cubist painter.
When in reality, Picasso painted some of the most incredible realistic paintings I've ever seen, before delving into Cubism.
Which is to say: Who knows? Maybe it will be good. Maybe it will be bad. Let's wait until it comes and judge with our own eyes!
i don't want to see the typical moeblob anime either
hope it will still stick to the original storyline
If Shaft follows the manga closely, you won't have to worry. Hime-sama can very moe, you know. She is strong-willed, determined, and with a soft side moe. That and a milf at times.
Also, I don't think you even know what a moeblob is... Also, moe character != moeblob. Also, moeblob anime makes no sense. So make some sense.
An anime full of moeblob characters. What's not to understand?
Vampires are originally from my country...yay y^_^y
actually vampires appear in folk tales in many countryies
where are you from anyway?
romania.>
I want that chair
This looks good! I hope they use the animation style SHAFT's using in Bakemonogatari. Add this to my watch list :D
Original and fanservice in anime doesn't go that well...
I'll see how this is.
this sounds interesting...
besides that this is a loli manga but it will also going to be animated by Shaft =3
Oh... i just started the manga after seeing this. Very interested as to how they're going to animate it seeing as Mina Tepes likes to show-off her... "assets".
Vampire+loli+bondage *starts drooling* this sounds like epic win to me.
There's not much bondage, really.
But yes.
loli + blood -(2xvampire) = about 75% watchable
only way to tip the balance if their is more Loli or alot more blood and or hacking off of limbs with wanton abandon
VARYING DEGREES OF WANT
men like it for loli, chicks like it for vampires.
Chicks like the lunar based ebb and flow of blood with vampire titles for some reason they feel empathy towards it.
Well hey, you've got my interest.
how do you prove one's virginity anyway?...
You should probably talk to mom or dad about that one. Or check out the wikipedia entry for "hymen". This is probably not the best place to get educated about those sort of things.
...... SHAFT? Loli? Bondage?...... I am SOOO There!
I only have the first one
Tsukuyomi Season 2?!
*shudders*
FTL of Loli~! Bring it ON~!
DAT supervisor's ASS!
heheeheh....
Forbidden fruit is the sweetest...
Now, the Manga's published and available in bookstores translated now. I was reading it and whoa! I mean, erection in my pants and steam from my face. So forbidden and wrong it's sexy.
Note that, in the context of the plot, this has nothing to do with "Sex". It is everything to do with power. Mina, due to the constant infighting between vampire clans, was mortally injured as a child, so she had to be converted to vampirism as such. Most adult vampire women (in this fiction) can have one vampire child, if they are lucky, so among nobility a formal "Chastity" test is critical. Of course it's nothing but humiliation for power's own sake in this case, them putting the "Brat" in her place. The faces of the vampire lords reveal their personalities. The evil blonde guy in the center is watching with the devil's smile, the oriental guy (does he hop?) is yawning, probably gay. Of course the bestial Russian lord is looking with savage eagerness;-) And its designed to hurt her implacable will. She's centuries old and worthy of the "Tepes" name in both cunning and ruthlessness. Her weakness is that she's also passionate but trapped forever in a child's body.
I really hope this kinky pedo scene makes it to anime and to the states. It's the sort of thing the Hitlers would think prime bait for "Justice by points" but they'd find both a major anime studio and a large grassroots fan base declaring holy war and hiring a legion of the best lawyers. Also, as I pointed out above, the story certainly is deep enough it's not just for "Pedo" pervy pleasure, it's an intelligent vampire story with lots of cultural and social refs and so is not "Pornography". Instead of just watching the "Naughty" scenes, the jury would be forced to watch the whole thing from beginning to end and it's a story that would really engage most people, anime fans or no.
So much truth and wisdom in one post. However, even SHAFT doesn't have the guts to not tone down the anime.
just read the manga, you have both lolicon and shotacon into one manga...
She needs to get laid, real bad.
With like, thousands of hot manslaves, to make up for all that lost time.
Can't she just re-generate her hymen or something..?
Maybe that's the one thing vampire lolis can't
regenerate..
