Who did you want to win the humans or the Shiki's?

Well, it's complicated... as I put in my review, the show is an emotional roller coaster, and while it makes you feel sorry for both sides; it doesn't really give you must good on either side for you to place your hope in.
I think in the end I wanted no particular side to win. I fel that the town had somehow forfiet their community; and I only wanted for Yuuki to soehow walk away from it all.
I guess that about sums up my response to that question, though I wish i ould have included that in my rview.

I actually wanted the humans to win overall after everything was said and done.
Reasons:
Essentially, you can get any number of answers, and I don't think any of them would be right or wrong, anyway.

I didn't want either side to win. When I finished watching the series I shrugged and decided to go with the humans, but after the special episode, 20.5, I decided that no side deserved to win.
Personally, I would side with the humans. The dead that has to feed off the living should stay dead.
[spoiler]The okiagari merciless murdered people and controlled people so they can live. If they wanted to live so much then they should have found another way besides preying on humans like animals. The blue-haired okiagari coercive their new members with either dying or killing how evil is he. Basically, when they awaken they lost their free will or unless they choose death instead.
I feel the humans did their best to handle the situation they were in. They were fighting against corpse demons who had special abilities that humans did not have. The sunlight weaken the okiagari so they could not attack the humans that were slaying them. Frantically, the okiagari got what they deserve. They hunt people like monsters and when they are getting hunted they act dumbfounded because the hunters has become the hunted.
Actually, with the behavior that both sides shown, it might have been cool if everyone died and nobody won - the moral - nobody wins a war. When you think about it, the vampires struck first, then, once the humans learnt of this, they struck back, hey became monsters themselves, it seemed like nobody tried to come up with a diplomatic, peaceful solution. Of course, this is a vampire show that is taking on the real, more traditional vampire - there is no lovey dovey, six pack abs glimmering in the sun like phosflouresent desert buttons characters here - these are the old school, brutal, out to kill vampires.
I know, the vampires used deception, manipulation, killing and started the death toll first, but the reckless attitudes the people took on when they went about destroying them (although it needed to be done) I finished the series with a lower opinion of both sides.

I believe the shiki should have never been hunted down like they where in the end, all they wanted to do was live just like the humans, and in order for a shiki to live they need the blood of a human, do the shiki have less of a right to live than a human does granted the shiki could have come to a better solution than drinking the blood of a single human tell they died, they could have spread it out more to other people as to cause no death. another thing is those humans that where changed to shiki it seemed the majority of them liked to be shiki but a few of them hated this idea of killing to live, which goes back to me saying there needed to be moderation with the shiki feeding of the humans. in the end i felt the humans had become the demons they feared so much, the humans killed like savage beasts and even mentioned at one point that they needed to clear there hearts of all feeling, but yet if you remember the shiki felt bad for hurting and killing the humans, this situation arose time and time again threw out the series. so after all this i think the shiki should have never been slaughtered like that, both humans and shiki should have come to an agreement.
I wanted the skikis to win, because all my favorite characters were/turned into shikis (and the kind that starts with a "j") Bust sadly, they ended up dying in one of the last two episodes
Shikis have it for the win
i wanted the shikis to win. well, i wanted them to be able to live peacfully. If it wernt for the leaders im sure they could have. But instead they were told that killing was okay from the moment they rose.
Overall I hate shiki for how it ended. Every character I liked and wanted to see more of died brutally.
Truthfully no side deserved to win and in the end neither did but, is it wrong to kill when you have to or is it when you want to i find the humans guilty of the fact they were more of monsters than the shiki, is it so wrong to have a second chance at life , because you got the chance to come back then your hated because of it. It should not have been the way it was but the sins of the shiki can not be condoned yes they killed freely and yes they attacked some without care but that is there punishment to live forever killing it is bitter sweet to go to sleep everyday to know sometime your eventually going to have to kill again, i found this conflicted and extremely saddening i shall take sunocos words to heart "death is equally frightening to everybody , theirs no such thing as an extremely terrible death" i believe if i die tomorrow people will be sad some more than others but who can be ready for it well no one can all we can do is accept the fate brought upon us and hope that someone somewhere will be thinking of us always.
