Athrun and Cagalli are together a symbol of what Coordinators and Naturals have
to overcome in order to reach perfect harmony. They could become a worldwide
symbol for that universe if you manage to get them back.
So please let Athrun marry Cagalli while Kira marries Lacus as THE perfect
couple they already are.

warrior-minded young girl
LOL. Well, Saya is not technically a girl but rather the last true vampire. I'd
say she's quite ancient.
Other than that, what about the Chiropterans? Are they in Blood+ & still
the same like in the Blood LV?
Alright... a true vampire girl. But the most important is how contrastive of a
general personality she came from Blood LV to Blood+. I must admit it's always
funny to see Say's reaction every time her belly tells she's hungry (also what
an appetite). LOL!
The Chiropterans are the same race of monster for both the series and the movie,
they are simply the sworn enemies of true vampires entangled in an eternal war.
Chiropterans are some form of vampires, but they are rather like
barbarians/impures in the race of vampires, looking to hunt all living species
(including true vampires) while Saya is entrusted the task of preventing all
destruction of life in the hands of Chiropterans.
Well, I got the time to watch the 3 episodes so far, and I must say this series
met my expectations so far in terms of character interaction and, of course,
action.
When I first watched Blood: The Last Vampire a few years back, the animation
quality was already something great which unfortunately a little forgotten
because of the shortness of the OVA/movie.
In this series, it's very refreshing how Saya came from that quiet, cold, and
warrior-minded young girl to become into a shy, talkative, peaceful, and caring
girl. In short, Saya received a real touch of humanity from the movie to this
series; at the same time, it's great to see how she feels herself at home witha
family for a creature who never almost had been so before. And
the ties Saya developed with her foster family are very strong as shown in
episodes 2 and 3, even stronger than we would expect from who Saya was before.
The transition from her new self back into her old self in order to fight the
Chiropterans (when the time comes) will sure be brutal for her. Hopefully she
would not become the complete cold girl and berserker she was before.
One thing to be worth mentioning is the BGM. I just watched the few episodes,
but everytime I listen to Mark Mancina and Hans Zimmer's work in Blood+, they
are really showing again why they are among the greatest composers worldwide.
For instance, the background song that plays when Saya's foster father is
explaining his past feels like its music from a movie (it especially reminded me
of a few emotional cues in "The Thin Red Line"). During the action and
battle sequences, the musical score brings us back to something close to what we
listened in "Batman Begins". Great musical work!
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE OST!!! But also watch this two-thumbs-up series.
I appreciated Gundam Wing in the past, but now I appreciate more Gundam Seed. In
Wing, the plot was great, but it's true that it can get confusing at times. The
only thing I could complain about it is about the lot of political intrigue
while there is less on the human side. In seed, the political side seems very
explicit for all fans, and the human side of the characters contributes a lot to
the storyline.
Also to add that Kira and Athrun are characters that we fans can identify to,
because they are human, and they ARE NOT perfect. In Wing, the pilots are too
much perfect to appreciate how they are living through all the events and how
they fight.
If I had to vote between the two, I would say Gundam Seed anyday!
Wow! That's a tough question to answer because since I started watching anime,
I've watched different kinds of anime series and I've listened to lots and lots
of good background music.
But if I can try to answer, my all-time favourites would come in a triple
tie:
Gundam SEED-Destiny (OSTs and Symphony SEED)
Escaflowne (TV series and Movie)
Laputa: The Castle in the Sky (2003-remastered)
Also honorable mentions to:
Princess Mononoke
Last Exile
Spirited Away
Macross Plus
My Neighbor Totoro
Just to say that my favorite composers would be "The Maestro" Joe
Hisaishi, Yoko Kanno, and Toshihiko Sahashi. Talking about talent, I would put
my focus on them even though I know there are still many good composers for
anime out there.

Glory Glory AsuCaga!
