I don't think so. We've only seen flashbacks of scenes from Blood the Last Vampire. I can't remember if there's an official interview with the director/writers/etc. about it, but so far, I haven't seen anything from Blood+ in this.

Given the voice actor and Blood+, we can assume Tadayoshi is Saya's real father in Blood C and that he's a real vampire, too. He may not be the bad guy in this one, he may just be her father and that's it. My guess is that Saya is a halfling. Her father probablyfell for a human woman. Saya was born. She goes feral but she is drawn back to her dying mother where she promises not to hurt humans ever. She then makes a pact with the "dog." |

now i dont get what Saya wants anymore, it happened many times, even before this eps that Saya is too slow to react and resulted more people dying (including her twin friend)
in eps 8, Saya could have attacked first to prevent that aged one to get near her classmates... i hope her actions will be explained later btw the fanservice was not expected, the censoring is

I believe her father is an elder being (so is Saya)
which is why it seems hilarious to six arm guys when that person of everyone else told her to kill other elder beings The covenant elder beings have is probably a non aggression pact saying that "we will not kill each other over food". But when it is clear that Saya didn't follow this, they took action.

Inattentive
I didn't perceive this episode's furukimono neither frightening nor with a vicious, brutal nature in comparison to the previous ones, and that's likely because it had both a humanoid form and a human face.
But, the mystery within Schrödinger's box is about to be open. The world that Saya knows and the world that the Furukimono know were able to coexist at the same time, but that's until the covenant was broken. The truth approaches, and Saya may get crushed once learning it. Aside from the teacher delivering those gloomy but cryptic hints about her knowledge of the Furukimono, we have the mystery puppy letting know Saya that someone came to him to ask for a wish granted. And it all pinpoints to something, that someone forgot about everything and was house trained to believe what had to be believed. Spoiler:
Probably, the most hideous sight for this episode happens towards the end when soaked in her slained enemie's blood, Saya starts to act feral upon seeing her reflection in blood just as Tokizane comes to sight from the hideous aftermath. |

You know, I'm surprised I didn't think of this before (an idea that just came to me)...
What's a Covenant? I mean, generally speaking? Why, it's a promise. One considered of particularly great importance, frequently a solemn promise (or agreement). What would you call a promise of protection? Well, in a very formalized and/or ritualistic context, it could be considered a Covenant... When the Elder Bairns tell Saya to "Remember the Covenant" are they telling her to remember the promise she made to protect them? Wild speculation time: Saya is a prominent leadership figure amongst the Elder Bairns, and is at least half-Elder Bairn herself. She was captured/kidnapped by a shady human organization that is bent on wiping out Elder Bairns. To the Elder Bairns, the town that Saya is in is comparable to a compound that a close relative is being held at by hostage-takers, and all the people in it are considered obstacles to her rescue. The Elder Bairns are attacking this town in order to get their leader back. Or, for those Elder Bairns that consider Saya beyond the point of no return, they want to destroy her in her corrupted state. I can even imagine Elder Bairns debating this amongst themselves. The challenge between Fumito and Saya is as follows: "I bet that me mind-altering you, Saya, will make you fail to live up to your promise to the Elder Bairns. I bet that I can turn you completely against them.", to which Saya argues that she will not be turned. Saya's father is, as others have suspected, an Elder Bairn himself. Perhaps Saya was captured trying to rescue her father after he was captured/kidnapped. Saya's father has agreed to go along with the plans of Fumito et al in order to defend his daughter (Fumito may have threatened to have Saya killed if her father didn't go along with the plans), and also perhaps in return for being supplied with just enough human blood to keep him from dying from hunger/thirst. Anyway, just some wild speculations there. What do my fellow Blood-C watchers think?

After the false start however, I think the series has recovered and now I am entranced by the mistery of Saya's true nature.

Furthermore, I'd find it weird if Saya turned out to be the protector of human eating monsters. It goes against everything she was in her previous iterations. However, since this work is unrelated to previous Blood series, I suppose anything's possible. That doesn't explain why she was killing monsters in her flahsbacks as well though.
