The complete 12-episode run of Blood-C, Production I.G's divisive take on the vampire horror genre, is now streaming on Hulu with both English dub and subtitle options. The series follows Saya Kisaragi, a seemingly ordinary high school student who moonlights as a sword-wielding warrior battling monstrous creatures that threaten her village.
This 2011 anime, an original story from CLAMP, plunges viewers into a world of brutal action and shocking twists. Saya's peaceful life is shattered as she confronts grotesque monsters, leading to a narrative that is as infamous for its extreme gore and body horror as it is for its controversial ending.
While the series scored a middling 6.87 on MyAnimeList, its reputation precedes it. Blood-C is known for its relentless, over-the-top violence and a narrative structure that builds towards a significant, often debated, plot revelation.
As a standalone entry in the Blood franchise, Blood-C explores themes of betrayal, identity, and the nature of humanity through its hyper-violent lens. The complete series allows viewers to experience the full arc, from Saya's initial struggles to the shocking truths revealed by the end.
