Title: Pitched to kids, lacks poetic license explicitness
Review: This is another anime that has a good concept and material but surrenders its promise to the constraints of self-censorship to qualify as a kids movie. The idea of having a mutant race of child vampires disrupting the current order of things is a promising one, which could even be taken in some sexually explicit interesting directions, yet because of the producers' inhibitions and maybe also because of societal taboos, legal and otherwise, we the viewers lose out with a bland version of what might have been. This is a good example of why censorship is so insidious and destructive. Let parents decide what their children can watch, but allow a free market in expression so the more seasoned art connoisseurs can enjoy true art that is beautiful, ground-breaking and innovative, not rendered impotent and sterile for a narrow audience.
