Kennedy, you wrote:
Delico's Nursery is inspired by Kenichi Suemitsu's 2009 vampiric stage play series called TRUMP (although to be clear: if the series' website and trailer is indicative of anything, it does seemingly take place in this universe). And in the TRUMPiverse, “TRUMP” stands for TRUe of vaMP—at least in Delico's Nursery (although I'd presume it's like this in the stage plays as well, though I don't know that for a fact) it's the title used to refer to the mysterious vampire god from which all other vampires are said to descend. In any case, that's why the word TRUMP often appears both in this anime, and in conversations about this anime. As for Suemitsu, he's credited in Delico's Nursery for series composition, original creator, and the script for the first six episodes.


For a minute, I thought the writers and creators for the anime was trying to make a political statement (about the US) or some sort of political allegory, glad to know it was based on a 2009 stage play and not the former.

But overall, I'm not sure if this anime is to my flavor.

It's a pity that Kennedy is panning this series. Oh, well, c'est la vie!

I enjoyed this, it had hot dads and cute babies and very good opportunities to take funny screenshots of vampires talking about TRUMP. The characters werent very deep but they looked good, and sometimes that's all I need.
Biggest problem was definitely the way they didn't really explain very important things like a cocoon phase, when that's most of the villains motive.

Yeah, this was a big nothing burger of an anime in my opinion. I’m sure it generated lots of merch though…

I do love vampire anime so I’ll usually check them out, even if they aren’t great
