Synopsis
Staz is the vampire boss of a section of the demon world, but he has little interest in human blood. He's more infatuated with Japanese culture. When he learns that Yanagi Fuyumi, a Japanese teenage girl, accidentally wanders into the demon city, he jumps to the occasion. However, while Staz deals with an intruder on his turf, the oblivious Fuyumi is killed by a monster of the same type and becomes a wandering ghost. The disappointed Staz vows to Fuyumi that he will find a way to bring her back to life.

The show was great! I was so glad it became an Anime I thought wow it finally came and now, Staz is a serious Otaku if you haven't gathered and when he see's Fuyumi a part of him goes wild. Not with thirst which is surprise but with amazement that a human girl is in his room and comes from Japan itself. So you can see what happens next when all hell breaks loose (no puns intended as they are based in hell haha!) and Fuyumi is chewed up to become a ghost. Staz vows to bring her back but for his pastime or in general?

I would give the animation a boost I love it, I think its quite different it's nice to see a darker theme become hilarious with pleasant colours. Although there was more to be portrayed it was great for what they had. I think the characters were well addressed Staz especially, of course for a 10 episode Anime they did pretty well, it was like a introduction to Blood lad in general the first 10 episodes nothing in depth or so. The sound was great it was enjoyable and how it changed between characters. The comedy was good I wouldn't say laugh out loud way it was a mere giggle for me but it made me smile was worth it.

Well it was 10 episodes so that was my first problem, although the manga is still running which I have read. I wanted a bit more! What's underwhelming was the action part of the show which just mainly showed the comedy side. But the actions were done nice but there wasn't enough so it wasn't a mind blowing Anime if anyone was looking for it.
Dopes Conclusion -
Well for starters Blood lad is a non typical vampire story, so if anyone wants to watch it for the original vamp style dont be mislead by the title of the show. The Anime wasn't mind blowing but it was worth the watch, the show presents Staz a mere otaku rather than a vampire that he is. So its different and very sweet, dont be fooled by the actions there isn't much, however dont let that stop you. Blood Lad is a classic example of taking a typical genre type and applying a twist on it. It didn't impress me too much but I really did enjoy it but wish there could have been more.

Miyagawa Atsushi is an 11-year-old boy who is 180 centimeters tall. Since he has a grown-up looking build but acts his age, he has always been running into troubles. On the other hand, his 17-year-old elder sister Atsumi is only 137 centimeters tall. Even though she has a childish looking build, Atsumi takes good care of Atsushi.
As I recalled when I watched this Anime, it was a very interesting one! Its about siblings who dont look their size and age! Quite amusing really because the kid slash guy is really good looking till you realise what age he is and makes it hilarious.
Its a really quick watch, and despite having really good art and sounds I found it very short. Each episode is 3 minutes long, regardless the show has very funny moments of having Atsushi in positions of a pedophile because of his sister there's a lot of misunderstandings. I can't help but be amused by it, I promise you it's a very good especially for a short anime.
mind you it might not be for everyone's taste. But I assure you its a cute one that fills in small gaps no joke!
As for Re, its the same as the rest short and simple with more jokes in between and the only difference from the first is that the second focused more on the siblings activities.
As for Mi, I am actually disappointed it took a huge dive, the animation and screenplay its sad. They weren't as detailed as possible, I expected a bit more but it did play well the jokes were overused but it was still a laugh. There is a few more introduction for more characters but like again if you want a short anime this is one for you.
I'll leave you with some songs ~
