Rosario + Vampire is a Japanese anime series based on the manga series of the same title written and illustrated by Akihisa Ikeda. The story revolves around Tsukune Aono, a boy with poor grades who accidentally enrolls into Yokai Academy, a special school inhabited by monsters, and demons where humans are not allowed. There he encounters the vampire Moka Akashiya who is attracted to his blood's sweet taste. While trying to hide his human identity, he meets other girls who take a romantic interest in him. The anime is loosely based on the first nineteen chapters of the manga and focuses more on the romantic comedy aspect and the "monster of the week" motif that was previously featured in tokusatsu shows, as well as some rare occasions of breaking the fourth wall. The second season is loosely based on the Rosario + Vampire: Season II manga, focusing on Tsukune and the girls' second year at Yokai Academy and introducing characters from the second serialization as well as new anime-only characters, as with the first season. The series became notorious for its excessive use of fanservice, mainly in the form of panty shots, which resulted in the second season being censored on two networks,[1] as well as angering many fans of the original manga.[citation needed]

Two seasons, consisting of thirteen episodes each, were produced by Gonzo under the directorship of Takayuki Inagaki. The first season, Rosario + Vampire, originally aired on Tokyo MX, Chiba TV, and TV Kanagawa [citation needed] between January 3 and March 27, 2008.[2] Six DVD compilation volumes were released between April 25 and September 26, 2008,[3][4] and a DVD/Blu-ray box set was released on January 29, 2010.[5] The second season, Rosario + Vampire Capu2, aired 13 episodes on TV Osaka from October 1 to December 24, 2008,[6][7] with several other stations starting from October 2 to December 30, 2008.[citation needed] Six DVD volumes were released between December 21, 2008 and May 22, 2009,[8][9] and a DVD/Blu-ray box set was released on March 19, 2010.[10] The anime is licensed in North America by Funimation Entertainment,[11] and it released both seasons on December 20, 2011. The anime is also licensed in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment, who've released both seasons in 2012.[12]

Four pieces of theme music were used for the series. The opening theme for the first season is "Cosmic Love", while the ending theme is called "Dancing in the Velvet Moon". The opening theme for the second season is "DISCOTHEQUE" while the ending theme is "Trinity Cross". The four pieces are performed by Nana Mizuki.[citation needed]

Transliteration: "Fūin to Banpaia" (Japanese: 封印とバンパイア)
December 17, 2008 (2008-12-17)
After the incident involving Lilith's Mirror, the barrier dividing the two worlds begins to crumble since the rosary stored in the academy that seals the monster energy from leaking out has now been cracked in response. Moka decides to make the ultimate sacrifice by replacing the broken rosary on the seal with her own rosary. As a result, Moka's outer self pays the price of being permanently replaced by Moka's inner self. Throughout the day, the other girls have a hard time getting used to Moka's inner self, while Tsukune cannot help but have Moka's outer self on his mind. Though Mikogami orders her not to tell anyone, Ruby tells Tsukune at night how to recover Moka's rosary, but also warns him of how dangerous this task may be. Tsukune must find the third of the three dark lords who crafted this relic, all of whom founded the academy and built the barrier, that resides in a castle north of the barrier. Kokoa overheard this conversation between Tsukune and Ruby and is planning to intercept him before he reaches his destination.

Tsukune continues on his journey and finally reaches the castle, thanks to Mizore, Yukari, and Kurumu's aid against Tsurara and Ageha. Inside, Kokoa warns him that the third all-powerful dark lord is Issa Shuzen, the father of both Moka and Kokoa. Despite her warnings, Tsukune confronts Issa, getting badly beaten by him in the process, but his determination brings out his latent vampire powers, and manages to snatch the rosary from Issa's hand. Moka's inner self arrives and stops the fight, convincing Issa to let Tsukune have the rosary before having the castle collapse. Moka's inner self has her moment with Tsukune and bites him on the neck before she reattaches the rosary on her neck. Tsukune finally reunites with Moka's outer self, only to be bitten on the neck again. Nekonome and Ruby arrive with the bus to bring everyone back to the academy. After being spanked by her father for being behind several schemes, Kokoa then gains possession of Lilith's mirror once again and uses it. Both Mokas are suddenly present as they as well as Tsukune's other admirers glomp him.
