Diabolik Lovers Vol.3: Kanato

I said I would be faster with reviewing vol.3, and here it is. I have to admit, I mainly did this so fast because I thought the sooner we get this over with the better, but dear Lord was I wrong. This was in many ways amazing. I thought Ayato and Subaru were scary. I obviously hadn't met Kanato yet.

Diabolik Lovers is a series that leaves you at the mercy of sadistic vampires. The project features drama CD's, radio broadcasts on NicoNico Live, and a PSP game by Otomate. The drama CD's are the first to be released, and this is vol.3 featuring Kanato.

Kanato (CV: Kaji Yuuki) is one of the triplets, and even though Subaru is technically the youngest, Kanato looks and acts younger. He blames others for everything, and tends to cry when he doesn't get his way or becomes upset. After which he turns violent. He loves collecting dolls and has a teddy bear that he always drags around. And he talks to it.

The story begins with Kanato entering your room, demanding asking whether there is something you should be saying to him. It turns out he found you collapsed in front of the door, so he brought you up here, so now he wants you to thank him. But not after making it very clear that he hates 'stupid noisy humans' and making it clear that you should only talk when he allows you to.

As if that warning wasn't scary enough, he blames you for collapsing because you have been letting others drink your blood. And they aren't allowed to. You are Kanato his food. Yes his food. Where Ayato and Subaru at least said you were their woman/possession, Kanato makes a point of saying you are his food.

That isn't the scariest part though. Kanato his switching between insulting you, suddenly starting to cry, and then going batshit insane and shouting at you is scary as hell. No kidding. In the beginning I was cautious (because I know how scary the others were) but when he started insulting me to no end I grew kind of annoyed with him. But when he started to go insane all I could do was cower in a corner... The moment his Teddy broke I was seriously afraid of the consequences.

Have I mentioned you never get out of your room? Or to be more specific, I don't think you even get out of your bed. After his Teddy broke Kanato simply decides to eat you on the spot. I think I was mostly to scared to actually enjoy the dummy head mic part. Yeah he is that scary. He mentions near the beginning that he would like to kill you and then drink every last drop of blood from your corpse, that kind of scary. (at least Subaru wanted to keep you alive).

Normally I am a yandere fan, but Kanato really is one of the scariest ones around. That he wants you all to his self is a standard yandere thing, but the fact that he is convinced that you actually like it when he abuses you drinks your blood. That and his switching between crying and yelling at you make his one scary yandere.

One of the reasons why I wasn't looking forward to this CD is because Kanato looked like a shota. He sure doesn't sound like one though, so no need to worry about that. Fine he sounds younger than the rest, but much much much better than I expected.


Conclusion:
As of yet, Kanato was the most scary of them all. To the point of me being more scared than actually enjoying it. But Kaji Yuuki his voice acting is amazing here. The series is starting to make me question my mental health though.
