I'm getting to it - I want to give it a bit of consideration, because it's easy to say "Yui is a idiot" or "Laito is a perv." Yui came to mind first because it seems that a lot of people hate on the character, and I wanted to get my POV on her out there.

I've also been thinking about Karl Heinz a bit. What I've come up with is that he's not so much evil as he is world-weary. There's been some noise bout him being the true villian of the series and perhaps he is, but I think there's an explanation for it. Here goes:

Karl Heinz (or Karlheinz) has lived for so long that there's nothing, demon, vampire, or human, that can surprise or even much interest him anymore. He's lost the ability to feel love, sympathy or empathy over the millenia, and all that remains is ennui. To ward off boredom, amuse himself and satisfy his intellectural curiosity, he spends his time "experimenting" with the creatures that fall within his orbit.
