John the Armadillo Appreciation Thread - The Vampire Dies in No Time Discussion Thread

[Trombonista]

The Vampire Dies in No Time is a hilarious manga/anime about vampires and vampire hunters. Specifically, it's about a famous vampire hunter named Ronaldo who finds himself teaming up with Draluc, a vampire who dies and comes back to life easily, and his adorable armadillo familiar John. The series takes place in the Shin-Yokohama neighborhood, with plenty of wacky characters.

you tricked me. i thought this was a fan club for actual armadillos. those guys are cool, anime is just gay.

 

[Blouie]

My favorite armadillo

This thread has been taken over. It is now the amarillo appreciation thread.

 

[Valstrax]

Did somebody say ARMARILLO!?

As a fellow John "Nu-nen" Armadillo enthusiast
I'm so happy about this thread
I like that they finally animated Ronaldo's brother and more of John's scenes

Ngl, up to this point every time I've seen pictures of the creature in question, I always thought it was a Pokemon.

I'm glad trombonista finally got a thread for their armadillo though. I'm sure it's a very fine animal even if it does have the major disadvantage of being from an anime.

The Vampire Dies in No Time is getting a stage show!

 

[Trombonista]

We're getting three new character songs and a full version of the song Ronald sang at the end of the season premiere!

I particularly like the Lewd Talk Vampire's song.

one time irl I saw an armadillo wandering around the parking lot at work
he looked like a really big rat wearing a cheap dinosaur costume

 

[WebLurker]

I too thought this was a thread about adorable armoured rodents. I am very disappointed

 

[Trombonista]

Okay then, have some more John!

The moment that made me love John is in episode 2, when Ronald asked him to kill Draluc, and John responded by throwing a tantrum in Ronald's arms and then sulking on the top of the couch.

Today is John the Armadillo's birthday! Here's his pixiv tag, and here's his character song:

In case anyone is wondering how the stage show went:

Today is Ronaldo's birthday!

 

[Trombonista]

A Ronaldo Nendoroid has been announced. It includes the Eye-Beam Thing (Mebiyatsu) as an accessory, much like how the Draluc Nendoroid comes with John the Armadillo.

Once again it is John the Armadillo's birthday!

 

[Trombonista]

Today is Draluc's birthday!

Once again, it's John's birthday! It's also the 10th anniversary of the manga, so there's a special celebration!
