When you play with different choices, you gradually reveal new details and piece them together as a puzzle. That's why when I watch the show, I understand how poor the storyline is there. It consists mostly of consecutive scenes where Yui's blood is sucked by multiple vampires while she even stops resisting it at some point without any good motivation for it. I hate it that in the second season she really started to behave as a mindless cow, not being able to try and defend herself at least with words or say anything smart. She couldn't even answer Subaru, when he asked if she was held in Mukami's mansion by force. To me it looks like she doesn't have a personality anymore, she is an empty husk. I consider the whole show as mere advertisement of games, as it just demonstrates what Yui's interactions with every vampire would look like if the player chose him. That's why I think, that the show could hardly be loved by many people and is just a good addition to games and an opportunity for fans to see how their favourite characters would look when animated.

The anime is just a way to promote the game that the season is based off of. True about seeing the characters animated. Personally I haven't been a fan of the anime after seeing play through videos for the first game after the first season ended also reading summaries of the game as well same with all the games thus far.
