That ending song is creepy and unsettling, even more so with the knowledge of the big spoiler. I love it to bits. I like the opening song, too.
Although I agree with the commenter above me that Yuuki's passiveness is actually quite annoying. At least in the manga you get more of her justifications for it.
Also there seems to be something wrong with Zero's animator's ability to draw any facial expression other than 'blank stare'. This sometimes leads (to me) to a dissonance between what I think Zero's emotions would be and what he's showing, even in his fairly limited way. (A good example would be the first time Yuuki finds out about Zero's nature. He should have *some* sort of emotion on his face at that point, surely?)
Other than that, yeah, I love it, too. It's one of the must-watch this season for me.
