Strike the blood's strong point is not going to be its plot. I also think that the first few episodes are quite representative of the series asĪ whole so your interest should be fairly easy to gauge early on.ħ/10 - as expected, the story isn't outstanding, it simply does its job here. It's a straightforward anime you can get some escapism/ good sequences out of (be them of the girls or of the action). One of the things to appreciate here is that what you see is what you get. If you want to watch a normal guy who stumbles upon ridiculous powers and then proceeds to save the world and get a lot of female attention then here you go. The tags 'Action, Ecchi, Fantasy, School, Shounen, Vampire, Supernatural' actually summarize the show pretty well, with the exception of 'school' perhaps.
