I was also annoyed because while in the manga Yuuki gets pretty awesome after becoming a vampire, and helps vanquish Rido by totally kicking his ass, here her role is seriously curtailed – in the end, it is Zero who ends up solely killing off Rido instead of it being a joint-effort (the Rido battle itself was seriously underwhelming in this animated incarnation). ![]() However, this fact doesn’t excuse the fact that they tossed the manga in the blender and added some original content throughout this season – events happened completely out of order, and other events were added for no apparent reason, while certain details were excised from the plot – why add in fluff like Ruka getting attacked by Rido when that essentially means you’ll have to cut important details like the Chairman’s relationship to with Yuuki’s mother later on? It just doesn’t make sense. So Studio Deen had to go the original end route. I will admit first off that Studio Deen didn’t really have much of a choice on how to end it – by which I mean, it couldn’t go by the manga as the manga itself just recently got to a decent stopping place. But there was so much else wrong with it. The good news? I didn’t hate it completely – the scene between Yuuki and Zero actually worked admirably well. Ok, I held off on watching the last episode because I knew I was going to hate it.
