I'm seeing some pretty thick nostalgia glasses on this one, but the more I read the more I wonder if these people are remembering the same Blood+ I saw. I remember the first 20-25 episodes containing barely any action with little to no meaningful plot development and the same generic enemies. Please go back and watch it again, you might be surprised.
As for Blood-C, I've only seen the first 7 episodes but have already seen much more action with a wide variety of different enemies and some very interesting (and disturbing) plot developments. Seriously, there is at least one battle each episode (sometimes two) and not a single one has been with the same creature. I can only think of a small handful of series that can claim the same thing. You'll have to watch and judge the plot for yourself but I can assure you once you get to episode 7 you'll see what I'm talking about.
On a closing note, Saya is different but its too early to tell if that is a good or bad thing and you can really tell the influence of CLAMP on this one if you've seen some of their work (for better or worse). Just give this series a chance and stop remembering the Blood+ that only exists in your head.
