Addiction leads to more

Addictions that are now interfering with my every day life are becoming more noticeable to me.
So my last post was about my obsession with the HBO series TRUE BLOOD. Well now I've found something that has possibly trumped that: Japanese manga/shojo/anime. OMG! I can't get enough of it. How did I stumble upon it? I was on Youtube lusting after another "Bill and Sookie" scene when I noticed a link to Hellsing. I watched all 13 episodes of Hellsing and still needed more. Then I found a different link to Vampire Knight and that is still in production and it is amazing. I just finished (on Sunday) watching all 50 episodes of Blood Plus which were posted on Google video. I'm ambivalent about it because some aspects of it I love (such as Hajji's devotion to Saya) but then at times the story kind of dragged especially when dealing with the other characters. So far, it is the longest animated series that I have watched and I only chose to watch it because it has 50 episodes unlike Hellsing which I really wish could have been much longer. I love that maniac character Alucard. I wish that I could speak and read Japanese just so I could find more. So I've been googling information about this genre of comics/animation to find more. I actually came across an old vampire anime that I had seen when I was a teenager and I honestly believe that it is the beginning of my interest in anime for me. It was actually made in 1985 and is called Vampire Hunter D. The sequel in full "Blood Thirst" was posted on google videos in English but the original one wasn't. It was so nice to find the name of it because I had totally forgotten about it. I may have to look in to Manga further so that I can actually buy these books and or DVDs (I would totally prefer the DVD versions). So, this is where I am at currently: a revised interest in Vampires and possible other Gothic literature/themes. Hopefully I will find even more.
