| Black Blood Brothers | comment |
After a vampire apocalypse is narrowly averted in Hong Kong, humanity's greatest defenders, who are mostly vampires who joined the humans against the Kowloon (pronounced kuu-lahn) children, disappear. During the next few years, a safe area for vampires is set up in Japan; it is called the Special Zone.The series starts 10 years later as Jiro Mochizuki, one of humanity's greatest defenders, and his young brother Kotaro approach the Special Zone looking to move in. Unbeknownst to them, not all of the Kowloon children were killed in the Hong Kong Crusade. Some are after Jiro's life in revenge for his role in their near-extinction.And theirs is not the only plot in play.The series originally started in 2004 out as some Light Novels by Kōhei Azano and art by Yuuya Kusaka. In 2006, a 12 episode anime based on the book was created by Studio Live and Group TAC. In 2007 the light-novel was adapted into a manga. The anime was licensed in 2008 and released in America by Funimation. In July 2015, the English dub started airing on U.S. cable network Chiller TV, a horror themed sister channel to Syfy, as part of their late night Anime Wednesdays block.Not to be confused with Black Blood, a trope about censoring blood, or The Blackblood Alliance, a comic. | |

Katanas Are Just Better | |
| Black Blood Brothers / int_12a22bd8 | comment |
Katanas Are Just Better: Partially justified, as the show is set in Japan. Jiro used is trained in using one, even doing so in the Hong Kong Crusade (technically a tachi, if we're not using katana as a generic term for Japanese terms instead of the specific term). Only three swords show up in the series, and two are katana. | |

Red Oni, Blue Oni: A strange case with Caine and Jiro, Caine is normally rather irritable and loud, but he's calm and cold under pressure. Jiro is snarky and relaxed, but freaks the hell out when his brother is in danger. If they switch roles when under stress, that just might make the Purple Oni. | |

Although, this could be partially justified, as most of the individuals are vampires, and have doubtless been around for a long, long time. For all we know, they collect them like Discworld vampires. They're also almost all survivors of the Hong Kong Crusade, so their nicknames may have started out as code names. | |

Our Vampires Are Different | |
| Black Blood Brothers / int_9f63d4f1 | comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: Sort of. Different bloodlines have different strengths and weaknesses, but all have at least some of both. Also, only the Kowloon bloodline can turn humans by biting them; other lines only turn humans when the humans in question drink their blood. Furthermore, being bitten is depicted as extremely pleasurable. The Kowloon are also dangerous to normal vampires, as being bitten brings them under their control, as we're unfortunately shown in the third episode. | |

Magic Pants: Cain must wear some, because they're the only part of his outfit to survive his transformation into a wolf-man. He manages to hold onto to it pretty well in the first episode when he's diving into the ocean. If you watch you can see he has one hand on his head, holding it on, before he jumps. Let's not forget Zelman's hat, which never actually comes off. | |

Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing: Vampires that get staked usually leave behind a small pile of dust and a pile of clothing. | |

Expy | |
| Black Blood Brothers / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Zelman Clock looks a LOT like Heat from Bust-a-Groove. Both characters have an affinity for fire as well. Whether or not this is intentional I don't know, but if it isn't, it's one hell of a coincidence. Jiro is clearly based on Alucard. | |

Determinator | |
| Black Blood Brothers / int_e567510d | comment |
Determinator: Jiro in the final episode. When all hope seems lost, as it begins to rain down water like the flood, and the bad guys look like they might get away with a hitch, what does he do? he jumps off the top of the boat, takes two silver bullets to the chest, impales the driver of the boat and manages to crash the boat into a giant pillar. | |

Guns Are Worthless | |
| Black Blood Brothers / int_eb4ee9eb | comment |
Guns Are Worthless: Guns are pretty much useless against the sword-wielding Jiro. Not so much against other characters, though. | |
