I gave this a high rating, there were some really good plot lines, but also some missing pieces that would have been good! I love the story line, but feel like this closely resembled another anime in terms of tropes. If you like vampires and romance anime's I definitely recommend this one! I wouldn't consider this a harem anime. I would love to see another season and see where they end up taking the series. I think this anime could use another season, it was left off on a point where a continuation would be perfect and didn't end it on a note where it wouldn't make any sense! Overall give this a try and see if you like it.

This series is so bad that it becomes good. Watching this series with my friends was one of the most fun I've had this year to the point that I have to recommend it to people. The character and the storyline resembles something you would find in Wattpad but it also has one of the craziest plot twists I've seen halfway through the series. I could have never guess that that was going to happen. Honestly if you want to watch something to laugh for a while give this series a try specially if you can watch it with friends ( it might be more of a challenge if you are alone). And it also has some of the ugliest but funny editing choices i have seen.

I started watching it as a casual thing to put on in the background and it was super cringey it was almost laughable. I will say it honestly gets better and has deeper emotional episodes and I was not expecting the BLish content but it made it more entertaining. The first half of the season can get hard to watch with the entire cast being so blind to Mito it's frustrating. But it ends up becoming pretty cute and a classic romance anime with a beach and festival episode. Plus the dub and dub were both pretty good. If you can stick it through I'd say it's my favorite guilty pleasure pick of the season.

I binged this anime in just a couple of days. It's a cross between Ouran High School Host Club and Vampire Knight. The way Ruka slowly falls for Mito reminded me of the K drama Coffee Prince as well. The main characters are fun to watch and you want to root for them -- even Ren, who doesn't make the best choices. I wish the anime covered more of the vampire world however. It's hard to understand why Ruka would want to be a part of it, much less lead it. Nevertheless, I looked forward to every episode because I wanted to see what would happen between Ruka and Mito. The storyline may be fun and cute on the surface, but it hits on themes of identity, acceptance, and universal love. 10/10.

I don't usually leave reviews but I had to to counter the people who gave it such low reviews.

Yes, this is another romantic teen romance but it isn't a fluffy one. I was pleasantly surprised that there was such a great storyline that's quite emotional. I enjoyed the romance because there was so much of it compared to many other anime and that it developed over time. It wasn't instant. I also appreciated the very respectful treatment of gender. I liked all of the characters and the exploration of their individual feelings. There was depth to some of the side characters in addition to the main characters. Clearly there are a bunch of 10 star reviews too so I'm not alone.

I thought it was quite a gem and would love a second season.
