  • DAMMIT FRED!!!

    

  • boo!!

  • @D4rknb3h0ld3r I agree the ending sucked and the last episode made no sense at all.

    @Zerocidez Souleater was awesome. Blackstar is the 2nd coolest character of all time.

  • My friend told me about this anime the other day. Looks pretty good, so I think I'll start it now. :)

  • This anime is so amazing I don't know why there is so little fans

  • Wow funimation, what's with this horrible quality?! You can put he shit in 1080p bluray but you cant release a decent quality trailer?

  • This is by far the best anime ever.

  • @rosered6955 naww, code geass is better! :P

  • I think it takes the cake as being one of the better animes out there.

  • I just ordered season 1 online XD

  • Anybody mind giving me a brief description of what this anime is about? Im debating whither to watch it or not it looks kinda interesting but I dont want to attempt to get into something when I have no idea what its about.

  • @steven6666600000 It is a fairly good anime, it's about these beings called 'contractors' and their battle. They are kind of like assassins with special powers. It mainly focuses around Hei and how he has to cope with being a contractor as well as pretending to be Chinese student Lǐ Shùnshēng . The storyline is too long to explain and hard to describe, just watch it especially if you are into a supernatural and unique storyline. :)

  • @steven6666600000 If it looks kinda interesting, why don't you just watch it then? You need to ask permission before watching an anime? Also, you could look up the plot of this faster with a "simple" google search(ever heard of that?) than someone replying to you. Not bashing you, just telling you the truth.

  • @steven6666600000 Take a leap of faith. I did with many animes and glad i did. Had no idea what Elfen Lied was about, saw one AMV, found the name. bought the dvd love it. Did the same with "When they cry" and Slayers. Trust me, leap of faiths always end well! unless you jump off a cliff.... then, well... we all knows what happens next. -splat-

  • @D4rknb3h0ld3r now that was an answer I was looking for, thanks :p

  • @steven6666600000 LOL anytime

  • @D4rknb3h0ld3r did you check out Soul Eater?

  • @Zerocidez Yes. I've watched it. Thought the ending was lame, but overall i give it a B+

  • Bad ass show

  • I'd donate one of my testicles for season a season 3. I'm not even bluffing.

  • Could someone tell me what this anime is about, I was thinking about watching it after Code Geass R2. Please don't spoil it for me. PLEASE!

  • @boywhogames ... much better than code geass ( code geass is cool, but this is better) if you watch this.. watch season 1 then the 4 ovas then season 2. ok basically mysterious black gate appears, all stars disappear with fake ones representing contractors. Contractors basically work for organizations or go rouge. can't go more than that... but so good!!!

  • @mex1jvr Thanks for the tip, I'm going to watch it after I finish Code Geass (5 more episodes =o). I heard that it's pretty gory and really dark, is this true?

  • @boywhogames yes... here is a tip.... don't get too attached to secondary characters and some main characters haha... it is dark.. season one has comedy but in season 2 it is barely present but enough for a break or two. (you knw code geass has 2 season right??) man, was i attached to some characters that well.. yeah! my favorite is season 1 but season 2 is so close and it is a bit grittier, just a bit.

  • @mex1jvr Yeah, I don't refer to it as R2, but just Code Geass as a whoel series. BTW the guy at like 0:21 looks like Mustang from FMA and if I'm not mistaken, FUNimation and Aniplex created FMA. Is there and relation between the 2 or just a coincidence.

  • @boywhogames i think just a coincidence. but watch this!! it won't disappoint!

  • @mex1jvr I was actually looking around and a lot of animes apparently reuse characters, but it's mostly just the appearance. =] last episode of code geass. =p

  • I actually got my girlfriend to watch the entire season with me...great show

  • O man I haven't even seen season 2 :)

  • @trainman58 watch the ova's first!!! then season 2!!!!

  • COME ON SEASON 3!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm pretty mad with my friend because he keeps putting off watching this show, even though its on Netflix.

  • I love this show!!! I wish it had more love though.

  • this anime deserves more fans i mean it has heart and awesome fight scenes and kick ass sound tracks and slightly mysterious

  • @michael1734 One of my faves!!! It didn't win awards for nothing! Have you watched the 4 part "Gaiden" or the second series, "Ryuusei no Gemini"? PS...one of my fave soundtracks for an anime is InuYasha, written by Kaoru Wada (of Kingdom Hearts fame, and others). But I have a feeling you may already be familiar.

  • @likethecheeze321 yeah i watched Ryuusei no Gemini i havnt seen gaiden yet and so true inuyasha has one of the best soundtracks out there

  • wow this seems pretty good the trailer sucked but it still sounds good (/O_o)/ me want to grab it

  • I still think fma and fmab is better just IMO

  • a commercial to watch a commercial... damn....

  • @slidvirus ahahaha 

  • @slidvirus commercialception!

  • @slidvirus *Adception*

  • If u haven't seen this then go down to netflix and watch it NOW its possibly one of the best anime out there and u wont regret watching it :D

  • the trailer is crap,makes the series look really really shit THE ANIME IS BRILLIANT

    >:( im angry now

  • wtf, this is such an amazing anime but Funimation can't atleast post a decent quality trailer?!

  • Comment removed

  • I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good watch, though if you are looking for a feel-good anime, then this is not the one to watch.

  • The series was just brilliant

  • @notmyname97 was?

  • So, um... would you recommend this anime to a 17/F who gets disturbed -really- easily? I really want to watch it after seeing the names Studio Bones, Yoko Kanno, Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist, AND Escaflowne in the trailer... I just want to know how gory it is.

  • @Pevensify It's not that bad. People get burned and electrocuted but that's pretty much it.

  • @SecretAgent194 Awesome, thank you! =)

  • @Pevensify Actually episode 1 kind of has a kinda gross part where someone's fingers is being broken but it doesn't get worse than that. That part made me cringe a little bit. XD

  • @SecretAgent194 Haha okay, thanks! XD I'm assuming it won't be any more disturbing than Mikami's suicide in Death Note.

  • Now I've lost it. I know I can kill. The truth exists beyond the Gate.

  • I know this anime is exciting but I hesitate to watch it because I know the story is so sad, I would like to watch anime for entertainment and relief stress I guess this anime can't do eh...

  • ive watched animes like bleach, naruto, deathnote and vampire knight and i really really wanna watch something just as awesome as them, so does anybody think that this could compete with them cos i haven't found anything so far :(

  • @eepschizzin definitely. I highly reccomend this show :)

  • is this a good anime? anyone recommend it?

  • I just finished Full Metal Alchemist on netflix.. omg, so now i'm starting this... its FANTASTIC! But I cant find part 2 (on netfix... i only have 1, 3, 4, 5)

  • @Bwissrly1159

    did you watch brotherhood or the orginal anime?

    cause brotherhood is about 2X as better, in my opinion

  • @wtfmandudeguy1 the original for now.. brotherhood isnt on netflix.. btw did they every finish from where they left of for the original?

  • @Bwissrly1159

    nah, FMA (the orignal) followed the manga (book) till a certian point, then offshot and made a different storyline. brotherhood stayed true to the magna and thus, had to finish later because the magna took longer to finish. in my opinion brotherhood is WAY better, but check it out for yourself :)

  • Wow I look at the comments and it looks like everyone thought the trailer wasn't good enough for the anime XD yet still theres only 6 dislikes.. lol

  • Season 1, OVA, and Season 2 was nice!!!

  • @RedFireSonic where u watch season 2?

  • SEASON 3 PLEASE!!

  • @HCNguyen86 where did u watch season 2?

  • @HCNguyen86 where did u watch season 2?

  • @TheProchaser On here! Just search it up. IT is not dubbed though :(

  • @HCNguyen86 thanks first 2 episodes are dubbed but other ones aren't....

  • has to be one of my favorite anime's, dont let this trailer fool you!

  • Trailer Sucks... But the show is pretty much my my Fav. Anime(Or top Two).

    Now That I Lost It, I know I can kill.

  • great anime, shit trailer!!

  • Um... so is this anime really... gory then?

  • The original trailer FUNi released (the one with Yin playing piano) gave this show way BETTTTTTTER justice then this -cough- crappy comparison

  • I've watched all the way the volume 6 and amber turns back time so hei knows what to do but then in the next episode is like a flash back and talks about the dorky chick who's obsessed with hei and writes the story about him. Is there more episodes? Someone help me lol

  • probably the best anime i have ever seen. i <3 it

  • looks very morbid and gloomy

  • @ShY1CAS ITs a funnny show then will get serious when action is involved. Would of been nice if a couple funny stuff happen during action but oh well

  • You know, it's funny, I typically watch things like Fruits Basket and Kimi ni Todoke...so I'm not sure WHY I watched this show...but it is totally awesome! One of my all time favorites. Oh, and if you liked this then you might like Tokyo Majin- also very amazing.

  • Comment removed

  • Needs some HQ or HD for a "FUNimation" Trailer!

  • Lurve this anime!! :D To bad I kept calling my friend Hai, Hei the whole time I watched it =w= Try talking about Hai and Hei in one conversation....your brain would explode.... D:

  • Yeah this show is my favorite anime of all time I like the progression rate and character building and its not like 300 episodes long though the ending does piss me off every time since its not a completely or really even a happy ending at all though I like the twist did take me two watches to completely put everything that was happening together

  • The trailer makes it look to bloody...it's not people! LUV this anime!!!

  • I love this anime so much! I dont think this trailer gives a good impression though:( It's so much better than this trailer portrays...

  • Ohohohoh... Me wants to watch. :3

  • I cant believe this and Hetalia have the same rating. xD

  • Aww, man this looks really interesting. Ugh, I wish I wasn't such a wimp when it came to violent shows and stuff. It'd be cool if there was a version with less violence for us who are weak-at-heart. XDDD

  • @orgoik it's really funny and its not as violent as it looks its soo good! i highly recommend it :D just finished all the episodes it has. everyone that's watched it are all hoping for another season ASAP including me i cried when i finished :(

  • this show is raw it wasn't confusing to me.that's why I love it

  • AWESOME series don't be afraid to watch it cuz of the blood

    to me it was a bit confusing BUT AWESOME

  • dub please

    

  • wow this anime worked its way up to my favorite anime list in 5 episodes

  • I Don't Wear A Mask...

  • funimation get your ass's working on seaosn 2 already, its one of those few animes that have a perfect dub with fitting charecters,and well done acting, this dub was seriously up there with cowboy bebop and most anime film's dub

  • darker than black is probably my favorite anime....ever

  • I love this anime =)))

  • I find it amusing that I am watching a commercial right before a trailer which is itself a commercial I chose to watch.

  • Wow. This trailer is terrible visual/sound quality compared to FUNimation's usual stuff. I need this in HD!

  • this reminds me of death note mixed with higurashi no naka

  • No offence but the way this trailer is made is kind of shitty , i mean like the trailer is kind of blurry/pixelated . It doesn't look more up to date like the other animes .

  • @iPewshElmo

    It is kinda weird, the actual DVDs are much better quality than this. Heck, the trailer for Love Hina is better quality than this.

  • just found out its on netflix instant, sweet!

  • I LOVE Yin's piano piece

  • i want me some rubber bands like that!!!

  • i need a season three bcuz this show was amazing but the season 2 conclution was like WTF

  • I miss this show... I so want a season 3.... soooooooo badly

  • @catchaotica They are making a season 3

  • @annibelli1107 What is your source?

  • A darker version of X-Men.

  • I just finished season 1 on Netflix and I'd like to say this anime is amazing! I fell into the universe and I love the characters. I recommend this to anybody. Give it a shot and you will see it's going to grow on you and you will love it :D

  • @TheEvilPadawan just wait until you see the OVA's and the second season, you'll prey for a third like i have time and time again.

  • Wow... The trailer doesn't do the series any good. I mean, don't get me wrong, it was a pretty decent Trailer, but the anime is just... too amazing for words I guess. Though not for the light hearted.

  • @1millionraindrops i hear ya, just finished it like two days ago and i think it was money well spent

  • this looks good but to much blood for me to handel ; )

  • There NEEDS to be a third season. Make it happen!

  • Is there a place I can watch this on my iPod cuase I only found 1 episide of this on utube help plz :(

  • @nathanmusictv if your still looking for a place to watch it you could try animefreaktv

  • Am I the only one who finds it weird that I have to watch an ad in order to see an ad?

  • ok, about the subs vs dubs thing... as a person who is fluent in two languages, i can tell u that when a movie is subbed or dubbed it makes little difference cuz BOTH lose meaning in translation about as badly.

  • this makes me wanna play dead space

  • for everyone some animes are better off dubbed then subbed and some animes are better off subbed then dubbed

  • Though this is America, which allows to us have to have our Freedom of Speech, we don't know how to properly harness it. This resulted in such pointless arguments, like subbed Anime vs. dubbed anime. People, let's make things simple: Just watch which ever thing you love more. Don't argue about how English dubs are compared to English subs.

    If you love SUBs, watch SUBS.

    If you love DUBS, watch DUBS

    If you love SUBS and DUBS, watch both.

  • DAAAAAAAAMN WHAT KIND OF ANIME IS THIS?! I need to see it asap.

  • @xXOMGROFLOLXx mystery,horror,psychological :) u should check out ghost hunt too..its AWESOME

  • @xXOMGROFLOLXx GO GO WATCH IT NOW!!! Watch the SUB! Dubs murder anime and they cut a lot of shit out most times.

  • @xXOMGROFLOLXx 'What kind of anime?' you ask? It's the BEST kind of anime! ;) Watch it, love it, watch it again.

  • Looks alright.

  • @TheNexus18 looks alright?!

    you have to see it to believe it!! one of the best animes out there

  • @kevynspeed I AGREE!!

  • Yeah, it's the best!

  • that was epicly gross when he tripped on the arm!

    i cant wait to watch this :3

  • KICKASS ANIME!!!

  • Someone told me this was almost one the same level as death note. Can someone please varify this and is it really worth it.

  • @DJvolli well idk if its really on that level... its not pyschologically thrilling.... death note makes u sit on the edge of ur seat and makes u think... but i can tell you that darker than black is just as worth watching as death note is... lets put it this way.... u wont regret it if you watch it.... and if you do.. well blame it on me :)

  • @awsomenaruto94

    great! Thanks for the insight! Once I finish Kyo Kara Maoh this is right on my list! THANK YOU!!!

  • @DJvolli haha no problem...

  • The show looked really good until at reached 1:10. From hat point it looks horrible.

  • wow nice trailer It made me excited even though im already watching it :O

  • Darker Than Black is awesome Hei FTW

  • this was one hell of an anime.... i wished they would make another season! an unforgettable anime with unforgettable characters and an awesome storyline....

  • @awsomenaruto94 Just thought I'd let you know, they do have a second season of it, but it's not in english yet from what I know. It's called Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor. I haven't seen it yet, but from what I've heard it's pretty good. If you get your hands on a copy or a link let me know, cause I'd like to see it too.

  • @MasterChef317 yeah i've seen it already... but i dont like watching animes dubbed so i go for subs.. but yeah thanks though... you should definately watch it.... its also really awesome.... but that's just my opinion...but thanks.

  • @MasterChef317 just google the episodes. it's been around for a while, I watched the second season a year ago and now I'm re-watcing it.

  • @awsomenaruto94 yeah ikr? they did leave Gemini off even more open-ended than the first season, which I didn't think was going to continue, so it'd be really awesome if they were to hold on for one more season!

  • They did such a good job with this dub. c:

  • Hey what was that song in the first episode where the dark reaper first comes in?

  • why dont they continue season 3? o.o there are only 4 episodes in season 3! D: when are they gonna make more?

  • @hellworker45

    Season 3 was an "OVA" (Official Video Animation), meaning it wasn't meant as a third season, but as a bridge between the first and second season.

    But I agree, there should definitely be a third season.

  • This Anime was the best! couldn't stop watching... i wish it would have had more episodes! D=

  • Great Anime but you guys at funimation really need to step the audio and video quality of you uploads it kinda looks bad when your fans produce better work the you do

  • Ugh I have a feeling I won't be able to watch this on my iPod touch =[

  • Hei is gangster he probably uses his power to kill cheating girlfriends that dont want to fuck him

  • @DarokO2 Um.....the first problem with that is that Hei is never shown to have any attachment to any female character in the series, except for Yin, and possible suou at the end of the second season

  • Kaito has returned!!!

  • japanese dub FTW!

  • Oh wow, the ads come in spanish too.

  • this seems gay

  • @ab3k1nz then you, my friend, do not see an awesome anime when it is right in front of you

  • @ab3k1nz I didn't even know a show could have a sexual orientation.

  • Euww...this is kiiiinda sick...

    But I don't think I'll ever be able to watch live action supernatural movies again. They seem so...cowardly compared to this. (Nyanya, further proof that anime owns all~)

  • @ZipZapZopTitania lol yup, like "ZOMG That cup moved!!! :O WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!" XD

  • @ZipZapZopTitania what about push, and numer four

  • *stupid rather xD

  • maybe i'm stpid but the video didn't really make me understand what is happening, it's two orginisations fighting for power or am i wrong?

  • @steampunkk1 It's...complicated. Just watch it. It's awesome.

  • seems a little gory but has proven to have an epic story plot.
