Episode Count Confirmed

Blood Lad will have 10 Episodes
As confirmed by the DVD release information, along with TV guide magazines in Japan, Blood Lad will have a short, 10 episode-long run. However, it has already been confirmed that Blood Lad will recieve an OVA, making the episode count technically 11 episodes.

This number makes sense, of course, based on the small amount of published Blood Lad manga chapters in Japan.
