Half of the series consists of Yui crying, a vampire brother biting her, him enjoying it just a little too much, Yui crying some more, rinse and repeat. This is literally the “plot” for the first six episodes in the series. Yui Komori becomes the most recent bride, and the brothers all take turns torturing her and drinking her blood. Then there are others, like Diabolik Lovers, that are practically all smut and no substance.ĭiabolik Lovers is a 12-episode series about a family of vampire half-brothers that are offered sacrificial brides. There are few (think Love Hina) that hit the proverbial sweet spot, with a varied combination of plots to keep you interested. On the flip side, harem animes do not always do so well. Who doesn’t like the idea of being able to seduce someone and then enjoy the fruits of your efforts? In addition, the promise of multitudes of endings between a large cast of characters ups the replayability factor immensely. Harem-or reverse harem, as the case is here-visual novel games can be incredibly entertaining to play.
