Vampire Hunter D [Blu-ray] [1985]

Vampire Hunter D was our first introduction to D. While the second movie to me is much better, this is still a classic anime. The blu ray looks great, though there is a point of contention with some fans. If you remember watching a vhs of this or even a dvd of it, you will notice that the english voice actors are different here. They seemed to have changed the english voice actors for whatever reasons. It didn't really bother me too much and the japanese audio is still an option, but some fans are not cool with the switch. Definitely would recommend for those who don't mind but would not for those who want the original voice acting.

I jumped on this when I saw it was coming out on blu-ray. I have an old DVD copy of the film so I was really excited at the idea of watching Vampire Hunter D in HD. I can say that the picture is definitely remastered and the audio is fantastic considering the original film came out 30 years ago. I guess I was expecting an HD picture is all. For any who may have the same expectation, know that the film is 4x3 Pan&Scan, so you will have black bars on the side of your picture. That is the only reason this does not get 5 stars. This is otherwise great whether you watch in English or Japanese. Highly recommended to any and all anime fans!

Finally upgraded my worn out old VHS copy of this anime classic with this new Bluray version. The picture in this hi-def Bluray transfer is absolutely gorgeous and therefore I highly recommend getting it and anyone who isn't familiar with the original version will love this! Also recommend this as a great gateway-anime for newbies, as "D" actually has a mostly linear and easy to follow story line.

I remember seeing this movie when I was younger and it was good then and even better to me now honestly! The picture and sound is WAY better then what it once was (VHS). The storyline is pretty cool and has a very strong storyline. Worth checking out if you’re into horror anime that is about vampires.

I really liked this movie when I saw it on tv years ago. I am happy to finally have it on blu-ray. It looks clean, they did a good job transferring it to blu-ray. I like the music that plays in the background, I had forgotten just how much until I watched it again. It is old style animation, but the story is really good.

This Re-release contains substituted voice actors and dialogue throughout the entire film. It's very disappointing for fans that just want to upgrade their DVD to BluRay collection like me. I suggest that you look for the ORIGINAL VERSION on DVD and pass on this one.

This was one of the first anime movies I had ever scene. Because of this my love for Anime has continually grown. We need to get more classics like this one for our future generations. Can't buy it in stores which really annoyed me

This is a must watch for any anime fan. It is a classic anime from the 80's. You must be able to enjoy older animation but other than that its a great time.
