This sounds like a fake tv show that would be on in the background of real one.
"Vampyr! Do you mean to tell me you're not just a magic samurai assassin teaching and protecting these young girls, but you're also-"
"That's right! I'm also a half-VAMPIRE!"
"I-Impossible!"
Why is this so specific yet so accurate. 💀💀
Great comment
100%. This would be perfect as a fictional anime in an anime series set in the real world.
Holy shit you’re so right

Not all modern anime are bad. Take off your rose tinted glasses.

I haven't found an old anime yet, that when i go back to rewatch doesn't surpass my rose tinted expectations.
@@jobhunter5090 I'm not saying old anime are bad, but I'm getting tired of hearing about how anime "used to be so good" or "old anime is better than new anime" you know what I'm talking about.

you had me at "half-vampire samurai assassin" that is everybodies first terrible edgy pathfinder character and i love it
My first Pathfinder character was a witch called Brenda whose familiar was a stoat named Larry, but I guess that I might have been an exception.
my first was a thoroughly racist paladin with a tendency to fall into punji pits.
He's half vampire, and his other half? More vampire.
Super edgelord plague doctor cleric was my first character followed by the most stereotypical bard you’ve ever met
@@donfluffles6056 If yours had been the racist paladin, I'd be genuinely curious to find out if it was Grand Wizard Asuna.
Them: How many shitty anime tropes can you fit in one series??
Writer: Yes.
How many anything tropes can you fit in?!
I began wondering what anime was at the 3-minute mark. The f !?!?!?
It sucks because tropes by themselves aren’t a bad thing, they’re just a tool for writers to make good stories. But series like these mishandle tropes like a person who mishandles a screw driver by slamming it into a desk repeatedly and expecting it to solve the problem.
@@catcactus1234 And watching this show is like watching someone misuse every tool in the toolbox in very over-the-top, hilarious ways because they're just that high.

Vague Europe is a real place and as a vague european I am deeply flattered at how well the Japanese animation industry has represented my country. The rococo-art-deco-medieval buildings, the many many royal princes wielding katanas, the tiny sexily clad maidens, the slightly wrong names... I, Ekaterina McCazales-Montblanche, completely approve.
But which part of Europe did they represent?
@@djantouahmed7319 The confused part.
Many royal princess did not wield katana bro. Is just the main protagonist lmao.
AND this is a ROMANCE anime 🤣🤣
@@ccpmustfall6445 No no no, in Vague Europe they ALL do (also this is a joke)
This - this is just fucking brilliant. I, Severanus Eda Risolius Mortarianus Avolar, also completely approve of our country's representation.
The worst part of the whole thing is that the concept isn't... Bad?
Like, a vampire who helps a magically impaired girl by turning her into a vampire and having to hide that fact thanks to the circumstances of the world where the story happens is a decent concept! You could wring a lot of drama out of it.
Well I did recommend the manga for this series, since it is FAR better than the anime, as there is much more needed info, world building, and character development, and people were like "naAAaH n0 thxXx..."
I thought that too.
This might just be my preferences, but like imagine if it was told from the girl's perspective and the vampire dude was just there in the first episode! They might actually have to invent some plot to make up for the lack of harem!
It could be a story of her learing to control her new weird powers, trying to cope with her family's expectations, making friends and growing as a person.
It could even be a cool mystery about why he helped her - he's an assassin and she doesn't understand.
It was such a good idea and they did... this.
So... Its concept is basically Twilight , right ?
I also really liked the whole shame to the family make her better or just get rid of her aspect like such good premises in this show but nothing to it
The show is called fucking assassin's pride they should show him killing people who know too much

This sounds like someone wrote some serious world building and then did a bad alt+tab and started writing the weirdest hentai they could think of.
there's a lot more world building in the light novel, but because the interval between episodes skips several chapters or entire chapters are ignored in the episodes themselves, you end up watching without getting any context. You're basically watching animated versions of some action scenes and that's about it.
@@placeholder2924 There's a lot more pedophilia in the novel as well. That "intense kiss scene" that everyone seems to love? Weirded me tf out. I mean, loli's just barely make the "okay" line in some stories, but literal underage little girls? Solid pass from me.
@@6ixlxrd That's like saying there's a lot of violence in video games which "weird" parents out. Your perspective isn't wrong per se, but many people don't seem to take context and story line into account when judging a show.
@@anton6213 Yea but uh, there is something particularly perverse about basically forcing sexual stuff on underage people. Ya know. CHILDREN.
SHE IS THIRTEEN
Also murder is less worse than sexual misconduct because the victim is at least _dead_
@@anton6213 I have to agree with Elvin here, the sexualization of underaged children is worse than "violence" in video games. Now, while there are times where this is used to drive a story forward or provoke thought, there needs to be a reason for it. If there's no reason for it, it's simply disturbing fanservice.
"Pacing like a hummingbird heart on meth." Was the best line in this whole video. Fight me.

@@manuel8123 Right? Don't get me wrong though, the hummingbird line is still gold as well.
3 words
My little lady
I’d rather agree with you.
My two thoughts:
(1) Forcing girls with flat chests to wear uniforms with cleavage cutouts should count under "cruel and unusual punishment".
(2) That scene where the main character was glowing blue with power while revealing that he was a vampire took me back to Twilight. "This is the skin of a killer!"
7:55 is a good example of 1).
That is incredibly cursed. Like who the fuck thought that was a good call lmao.
i competely agree that this seems like a HS boy's self insert fantasy, however, the basic plot-line on paper also gives me mega sailor moon vibes. like if the show was from the girl's perspective and had an art style face-lift it could absolutely pass as a 90's shoujo. just think, youre a powerless 13 y/o and suddenly you get a hot bodyguard who gives you superpowers and promises to wait for you when you ask. im NOT saying that type of dynamic is in any way good but like... 11 year old me would be all over it lol
Yeah I get it. Hot, powerful, cool, tall older guy who is also at least a little inhuman and mysterious and very, very dangerous? Who sees little old unspecial you but thinks you’re special because of some internal previously unnoticed value? And then not only does he dedicate him and all his dangerous hotness to you, but he gives you powers so you can also be a total badass? It’s a romance and power fantasy all in one for teenager girls.
"No, no! She's got a point!"
Ah...the ol' "knight in shining armour" troupe.
Glad i grew up as more "Jeanne d'arc" line.
@@xxgirl101xx So Twilight
Christopher Brown I mean sorta I guess, but it’s also about power being given to the girl. Throughout Twilight, Bella has her agency stripped away. At first it’s because she’s a very weak human among bloodthirsty vampires who display a lot of creepy possessive behaviours. Becoming a vampire isn’t a power fantasy either, it’s an Edward fantasy. And once she has the strength of a vampire, she never gets to indulge in it and she’s still very passive.
(Plus, Twilight as a concept is hardly terrible. It’s just really poorly written with some terrible morals)
The fantasy proposed here is very much more about having a hot powerful guy devote himself to you, yes, but also having sick ass powers and overcoming problems using your new strength. It’s not too apparent in this anime because it’s very catering to a male perspective, but if it were from the perspective of the girl it would probably more closely resemble Sailor Moon and the like (a group of pretty girls with an older male love interest for the main character) rather than a harem.

In here officer! It got on my computer!
If he wanted to hide his Vampire side, why didn´t he call himself Not-Feratu or something?
Guardian Triple Damage Yeah, but that’s far too clever for this show.
Or maybe, just maybe... just a little, tiny bit of a possibility... that "vampire" isn't an actual word in this setting, i.e. they in that world they don't speak modern English? Besides, Kufa Vampir isn't even this guy's name lmao.
@@anton6213 didnt people call him a vampire a few times in the anime? Also that clown assassin kept sending messages of fire written in english so they at least know english even if not spoken verbally
@@alexanderlloydmendoza979 The bandage guy in episode 3 called him a "vampire" but that's more for convenience. It's like how there's a Japanese dub, English dub, and maybe also dubs in other languages, so what words and language the voice actors used and spoke in isn't the best argument.
But I suppose you're right with the message from the clown assassin. I checked one episode where Kufa was writing a letter and it was in English. Case in point. If you want to be really technical though, "vampire" may still not be a word in their dictionary.
@@anton6213 vampire is probably a word there since theres a lot of monsters roaming and the city looks like a european city (fyi ive never been to europe its only based on my stereotype) and the fact that they have already fought so they definitely would have given them a name and vampire seems fitting since theres a word called vamp that fits the bill to what vampires are (even though there are guy vampires)
I dont know if what i typed makes sense so ask me questions about the things you didnt understand
The fedoras appearing on Not-feratu’s head when he said “ojo-sama” absolutely BROKE me
Her name is
"Pina co Lada"
Levels of lazy writing.
Ugh don't remind me that Gate exists.
When the character called her "Princess Pina" I thought "If her name is Pina Colada I'm going to shit myself and die". I owe that series 1 shitting myself and dying. I should make that promise less often.
epikmanthe3rd Another show where the basic premise sounds mostly promising, but then the story rapidly stumbles downhill, trips, and breaks its neck on impact. Still, I enjoyed watching the CIV scenario of having a city besieged by a group of bandits armed with swords and axes... only for an assault helicopter to mow them down.
Gate is amazing though
@@18Hongo Glad you didn't die XD

An assassin giving powers to a girl to avoid having to kill her and having to hide the secret sounds like it could've been an interesting premise if it had actually been written well.
This is a shame because the setting and world sound genuinely very interesting.
Seriously, the setting is downright inspired. It weirdly reminds me of the game sunless seas.
@@epikmanthe3rd It had me thinking of "The Night Land". Seriously: taking such an interesting setting and screwing it up seems like it would take genuine work. Like there was an intentional effort to make the whole thing bad.
i'm mad.
i like brass and orange lamp light, all this world is missing to make me all for it is a steampunk technology scheme, airships and a city designed like a layered cake, tiers stacked on top of each other with pipes going everywhere.
it's unfortunate lamp-drasil apparently got wasted on a 12 year old's SAO fanfic from 2004.
There's no way the author put this much work into the setting and there isn't an arc outside the walls later on

That's my issue with most Anime nowadays with all the moe lol At 13 the fanservice was annoying but that's where it ended. All the characters were just the right amount of stupid for my 13 year old self to accept and still be entertained by it. Now I'm a grown ass adult and these companies - run by other grown ass people - approving these shows using kid characters to titillate you into buying their merch feels all kinds of wrong.

I got to him introducing himself as 'Kufa Vampir' and I broke. I had seen him dressed as Kirito, using a sword to fight people with guns (and winning), and basically just acting like the kind of person who knows exactly what to say to a girl to make her like him. The thing on the train where they said the same thing at the same time (if I recall correctly) seemed like a set-up for an agent and a handler meeting up with each other. Code phrases and all that.
Nope.
Just coincidence, and meant only to demonstrate how suave he was.
And then he gets to his house which is owned by his adopted family (because it's basically a given he's an orphan, right?) and has servants and that's when we hear his name.

Wow I managed to walk away just fine. Sorry you can't say the same.
It's a subconscious desire of wanting to see how bad it can get and torture ourselves
probably because its not that bad yet. I dropped Try Knights with a drop of a hat just fine after how bad it was. This doesn't hold a candle to it.
I watch for the animation. Or maybe thats just my mind searching for a reason.
This show name scheme is what happens when you don’t realize ace attorneys character names are supposed to be jokes
I actually like the premise of the story;
Powerful assassin/magic user is hired by shady noble family to train their child, and to kill her if she turns out to be a failure since it implies she's illegitimate.
That has a lot of potential and is ruthlessly enjoyable. It's something I would totally buy a powerful noble family doing in an age of magic and fantasy; keeping the family's reputation secure by only producing scarily strong magic users, as well as eliminating any "impure" blood from the family line if she's not actually theirs.
Hopefully some other show will tackle that idea better.

This one does deserve it - I find myself rolling my eyes at this show often. Please keep up the roasts - this show can be very painful to get through.
From the names: "What's all this then, a man named Vampir that is a Vampire. Good Heavens, how could I have seen this coming?"
To the one dimensional characters: (Bully until you beat her, assassin until you beat her, challenger to your birthright until you beat her). I take it mana in this universe forces people to be your friends and allies regardless of their original intention or backstory?
I kind of wish there was a police division dedicated to raiding the basements of writers like this guy. Would probably do the world a load of good.
Yeah I definitely got an " I have a hard drive full of cp " vibe from the author.
Officer: CODE 10:89 we have a bad writer mixing basic trope, repeat bad writer mixing basic trope, possibly that’s he’s taking it straight and thinking he’s a really good writer. Permission to send in the Mother division to “Set him straight.”
Im sooo very happy that no one wrote that "The culture is different in Japan" crap. It doesnt matter and its not ok. Slavery was also a part of a lot of cultures but is universally known as being bad. I can suspend disbelief for the ecchi that do the "she looks 13 but really is a 300 yr old witch" but this one straight up stays they are 13.
Call it "To Catch a Predator"
@@carolbaker2773These are the same people who say slavery is ok the place you get isekaid to does it😂.
The phrase “secret childhood friend who has forgotten him because: magic amnesia” DID make me exhale rapidly from my nose, and has cemented this series in my post-final anime hatewatch list.
I've said it once and I'll say it again: A lot of anime would be great if they focused on writing rather than ecchi.
Writing difficult
Drawing hard
@@letsreadtextbook1687 Considering how much fanservice exist I would believe drawing is easier than writing
"Top seven most watched new shows" Yeah they know exactly what they're doing...
@@Akashi-ml9dn I don’t think they’re taking about that kind of “hard”

Oh my god, this sounds like the most glorious trainwreck ever.
Watch the dub of Kyo Kara Maoh. You can find it on Crunchyroll. I'm over 30 episodes in and the trainwreck just keeps going.
@@TheDwarvenDefender I saw that show a long time ago...subbed though... for I remember liking it but it being like...a guilty pleasure, I was like 12 XD ...But I dont regret it.
Worse than handshakers?
@Bainbow It is
I've needed another trainwreck anime since Arifureta ended.
i just realized Blondie's name is basically "My little Angel" but butchered horribly

Can we have one of these shows were the guy is genuinely hated by the females l

@@ajbaisley99 lmfao you caught me off guard
What I want to see is a show that looks like a harem anime at first glance, but it’s quickly revealed that none of the girls are romantically interested in protag-kun, they’re actually into each other and have formed some kind of complex love polyhedron, but they can’t openly pursue each other for whatever reason: homophobic parents, being royalty/nobility and thus under pressure to marry a man and produce an heir, et cetera. Protag-kun is a close friend of the girls, knows their secret, and is happy to serve as their cover story, perhaps even helping or hindering their romantic pursuit of each other as the plot demands: “I can’t let Sakura confess to Ayano; that would break Rin’s heart!” As a bonus, perhaps protag-kun is also secretly gay and in a relationship with the guy who would be the annoying male friend who only exists to make the protagonist look better if this was a normal harem anime.
I didn’t know that the writer of My Immortal also wrote light novels.
Suggs?
I seems they got a much better beta reader though. They actually spell the main characters name right.

Kufa Vampyr:
*tips his fedora*
"M'lady"
*It's "mai rittoru reidi"
*tips fedora in Japanese*
I felt like turning myself in to the authorities after playing Nekopara...but man, that feeling is even stronger after watching this show.
Jeez, Might as well have added, "he's also a cowboy gunslinger with a P.H.D and vintage car collector....all of which he restored by hand himself"
"A Faustian blood pact with a giant, evil, talking spider" is like... the coolest idea this thing has and it's squandered on a garbage show like this holy shit
I tried to enjoy this as a joke but that 'little lady' line shut that down real quick
The putting on the socks episode and the one time Melida exclaims that Vampyr "already knows every inch of her body" made me laugh so hard I coughed up a body pillow with 'Cesca from "Smartphone" on it.
that engrish..
@@RemedialRob Some have a taste for cringe, me, not so much.
Kufa - adult version of Kirito but 17 years old
Melida - loli version of Asuna
Elise - Oragami Tobiichi's lost sister
It really is a pretty damn cool world though. The aesthetic is amazing, if only theyd actually explore it! I want lore!
Never thought I'd see the day where I wouldn't be able to use: "Still a better love-story than Twilight".
It still is though.
な6IXLXRD you did watch the MORBOE review,right?
Or better yet, go watch Kodomo no jiken, while I go into the witness protection program so you don’t come find me after you watch Kodomo no jiken.
@@dr.salty.m.d.7021 no. NOOOOOOOOOOOO
@Agado Ashe don't even bring that up
@Agado Ashe you didn't need to apologize, I just don't want anyone to go through that suffering
Just so you know, kufa is the same voice actor as the one that acted kirito.
I'm 100% convinced that he gets hired specifically to do the Kirito thing all the time now
dragontyron doesn’t sound like too bad of a gig
I regret watching SAO s1
Kufa Vampir has the same VA as the dude in Conception. Holy sh*t
That’s fucking golden
One thing I never noticed before: for all the (deserved) shit Geoff gives MORBOE, he always makes a point to pronounce "einherjar" correctly. I appreciate that.
Why do so many anime have magically powerful characters still in highschool
Are we all sure this didn't start as a fanfic written by a high school freshman somewhere because this is the fanficiest shit I've ever heard outside of archive of our own
GHoST2130 idk i feel like it's definitely more wattpad quality than ao3
i truly hope whoever would dare to write this on ao3 would get giggled off the site. wattpad would need them more
Sounds more like something you’d find on Wattpad.
Don't sully ao3 with this comparison, this is wattpad quality at best
it's a narou-webnovel adaptation. take with that what you will
This anime makes me look like a deep character.
a deep character? But I thought you were Ferdinand Von Aegir
@@android19willpwn I am Ferdinand Von Aegir! The legitimate child of the Aegir family!
Ferdinand von Aegir is unironically a pretty good character ngl
Android 19 I love and hate both of you
You are a deep character Ferdie. Don’t compare yourself to this nonsense.
The setting of the world sounds really unique and amazing it’s pretty damm depressing that they take a concept as cool and outlandish as the world this shows set in and then rather than focus on that go for a self insert power fantasy. Such wasted potential
I laughed so hard when you *poofed* the fedoras onto Kufa, my god that's so fitting it hurts
We need more of “The Roast of” series!
Roast of SAO.
I need one for Valvrave the liberator, but I fear it would immediatly break the poor man...
@@42Freeman42 pretty sure he's seen worse.
Daniel Steil I wanna see this one
I also mean the other half of Sao War on Underworld.
"The animation even looked pretty slick, until the whole staff gave up half way through episode 2" XD so one decently animated episode
Seriously, I really hate it when shows are so inconsistent with their animation. I always get lured in by the first episode's animation only to be disappointed once quality starts dropping.
the animation went from good to ok its not like the animation is terrable
"This show has the pacing of a hummingbird heart on meth"
Okay I can't breathe please stop.
I'm embarrassed to reveal how many times I've watched this roast, but "coach-feratu" gets me every fucking time.
i literally could not stop saying "of course" every time he mentioned a plot point.
ikr
someone in this anime most Definitely says 'heh, nothing personell, kid' at some point
Bruh 😂
When I watched the first 5 minutes of this show, I thought it would be pretty cool, but after finishing the first episode I knew it would be the complete opposite of what I was hoping for. This show seriously had so much potential.
The moment I finished Assassin's Pride, I automatically forgot everything about it.
Same
The Anime Equivalent of a Death Note.
When I found out he was a vampire I'll be honest I wasn't expecting that.
i mean you gotta be on a new level to name a vampire character kufa vampir
I was expecting ex-machina, just not quite that one.
I will be honest, same here.
I noticed the name but in my head I went "Nahh no way they are gonna go wtih something that silly now that they made that his name, it's just meant to be a light jab to the edge"
An episode later the madmen went and just fucking did it anyway.
@@witthyhumpleton3514 I only saw clips and nothing else so for a while I didn't know his full name.
i can see why, for me I thought he was ganna be one from the start from his fake name Vampir, like I get its fake but i mean its so scripted.
Why is it called Assassin's Pride when it's not about his pride as an assassin?
Why is Dragonball Z named after the plot excuse?
@@moredetonation3755 I'm sorry if I offended you but it doesn't really matter what other anime do or don't do, my question would still remain. I'm not saying that this is a bad anime because of that so if you enjoy it watch it. I was just expecting the protagonist to be a cold blooded assassin with no mercy that wouldn't hesitate to kill Angela and that it wouldn't depend on his personal emotions if he would choose to let her live or not which is the pride as an assassin I guess but it turned out to be the opposite.
@@f.o.4537 I was not offended, though I appreciate the thought. I was pointing out that consistent titling isnt really a theme of anime as a whole.
It's about his "growing pride" he wants to have "in his student"
Because he say that in the fist episode
I feel like any artists involved with these gd fighting school light novels should be forced to take a class about how to design school uniforms. bc I have never seen an even moderately appealing one in these things.
When I heard Kuffa/Cuffa(?) Vampyr's name and description I just heard 'My name is Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way"
Soooooooooo... Assassin’s Pride is anime My Immortal?
Edit: Yeah this is anime My Immortal. Very goffic.
Its written by the same guy
Goffik
Fun
I'm so happy I'm not the only one who got a very distinct My Immortal vibe from this whole thing.
Blue Cat good taste. Nice
Before I seen this video I thought this was going to be an anime with a "new" cool story
But I didn't know it was going to be a sword art online remake
SAO makes a little more sense and has more of his love interests being his own age.
Other than that, yeah.
SAO is better than this....i managed to watch SAO fully. i couldn't go past episode 2 of this crap
One minute into the video and I'm already starting to laugh. Not only is he an assassin, but a samurai sword magic wielder.
Like tearing up and cringing laughing. Because it is that bad.
Really ? Thats the bad part for you ?
You forgot the fact that the man is dating four children
@@julian7247 they said they were only one minute into the video so far, so i'm going to guess they cringed at every other part of the video
as did i, as i had to pause multiple times just to gather my braincells together
Wish they made an isekai FBI that arrests degenerate story protags
That's actually a good idea
Sounds exactly like Sword Art Online season 43
*there's 43 seasons of that bullshit???*
@@cuturtimeshort1450 YES.
SAO peaked at season 32
@@AkameGaKillfan777 lmao
No dude, SAO isn't a romance anime at all... The direction and art style are totally different lmao. SAO is so shounen and Assasin pride are practically... ROMANCE LMAO
The whole video can be summed up in one sentence. “Yes, really.”
4:54 Just for future reference, the male counterpart to a Mary Sue is called a Gary Stu.
Or Marty Stu
i rather die then ever watch a school themed anime again honestly
Well, too bad. Seems we're gonna be drowning in them for the rest of time.
