Twilight actually becomes vastly more tolerable as a work of fiction if you think about all of the characters as Death Note or Wuthering Heights style villain protagonists. Hell, in those terms, Edward becomes downright tragic, and Bella Swan becomes probably the single greatest villain in literary history.
As for why it’s Trixie taking Bella’s spot? Take a wild guess. :B
Exactly, he’s a diseased, sickly-looking creature, but he’s super-badass.
Also, mmm, knots. Trixie has been waiting for an excuse to take one. Having sex with an animal is out of the question, she isn’t that desperate.
Also sex beam. XD
Shiki is also highly recommended, although that’s less an action vampire anime, and more a horror vampire anime. Kinda like old-school Nosferatu meets Higurashi.
Look at Alucard, it looks like he’s fucking weak. Heck, teh guy could go to a beach naked, and ladies would swan on him.
Trixie has always wanted to know what a hoof-sized knot feels like that.
…They have those, right?
And hey, at least there’s Hellsing.
Actually, werewolves and vampires are still cool, just not in the mainstream. Just look to Japanese animation and Western roleplaying to get your glut of cool vampires and werewolves. XD
But no, Impious and Abridgenator are right. Werewolves and Vampires used to be cool, man. Used to.
But NOPE! Stephenie Meyer was given milk and honey from the Muses Nine, and she dumped Cheese Whizz and Coors Light into it. I seriously wonder if she’s from the same planet as Tommy Wiseau.
Awful fucking terrible disgusting worthless depraved terrible shitty fucking awful shitty terrible disgusting bad writing.
See, Trixie shows many traits of notable ego: self-obsession, aggrandizement of her own talents, boasting out the woz, and an inability to admit her own mistakes. Sound about right?
Boost these traits by several hundred magnitudes of scale, and you have Bella Swan’s personality in a nutshell. Borderline sociopathic in how she strings along men for her specific needs, views everyone not “Cool” to her as annoying losers who do not “get” her dubious genius, and self-obsessed to the point that she sells her soul, pressures her boyfriend into early marriage, abandons a legitimately nice guy, and tells her family to fuck off…all because she wants to be powerful and beautiful forever.
And Trixie, the person in whom these traits are relatively subdued and indicative of merely being a jerk? SHE’S treated as more of a bitch than Bella is! XD
