What a whirlwind of a volume!

I felt there were some hard extremes and honestly didn't know what to expect any time I turned the page because what do you mean Hina and Amanatsu !? And what do you mean that Amanatsu ?! I had no expectations when starting, but I can't say I would have expected either of these things! 😆

I really really liked the opening chapters and how Hina wanted to support Hoshino in telling Amanatsu he's a vampire, but of course, things don't go as planned. LOL! Poor Amanatsu! He really always does go through the wringer, but we're seeing more of his feelings and how caring he really is. 🥹 (Though he can be mean too! LOL!)

I will say that the biggest thing for me is that my feelings for Viktor changed! I was really unsure of him in volume two but I loved him in this volume! Sorry Viktor I didn't see how great you were in the previous volume!

Overall, it's a super fun volume with a lot of funny twists!

I'm loving reading this manga. Julietta Suzuki lowkey always hits it out of the park and I'm liking the development of the relationships and characters in this new story of hers.

This third volume was a little more chaotic than the last two so that's why it's a 4-star read but I'm definitely continuing with the manga!! A lot of things happen in this volume omg like onsen getaway, getting hit by a car, someone tried to kidnap hina and amanatsu, COSPLAY PHOTOSHOOT? Like yall this was filled to the brim of every single thing and I felt a little bit overwhelmed ngl. But I do really love the chaotic nature of the manga and its characters are very much wild and chaotic to the max. Everyone is hilarious and out of pocket.

I love love my girl Hina and Julietta does her outfits and hair and EVERYTHING ABOUT HER IS SO PRETTY <3 She definitely keeps me engaged and I always want to keep reading because of her.

Obviously there's Amanatsu and he's the grumpy boy who can't say no to Hina so I'm obsessed. I love him and can't wait for this slow-burn romance that we're getting. You can see little by little how their hearts are opening up.

I'm excited to see how it continues and you bet I'll be there for every single volume after. I just love how Julietta Suzuki does her art, the storytelling, the characters, and the romance. I just know it's always going to be peak.

Even subpar Julietta Suzuki is pretty good, but this is not a patch on Kamisama Kiss. Oh, did I mention that last volume and the one before that? Bet I mention it next time too!

One thing I think the structure of the latter series gave to the manga was, well, structure. This is more of a series of misadventures and ones that are not, honestly, terribly exciting.

It does have whip smart comedic moments and some big laughs, Suzuki is gifted at pulling some fantastic gags out of this premise, but looking past them you find something woefully threadbare.

But the jokes are really good. The first story features Hoshino and Kyuta heading for a hot springs together, which Hoshino feels is the perfect time to come out as a vampire.

This quickly turns into some hysterical gay panic, mainly because the whole thing is the gay guy panicking. Hoshino’s imaginings of Kyuta being charming as hell are funny enough, but combined with Kyuta actually being pretty charming makes for an even better joke.

The other very gay joke comes when Kyuta is forced to meet up with annoying stalker Fujimiya. They wind up in a maid cafe and their misinterpreted conversation winds up driving the staff into a frenzy at the thought of boys love erupting nearby. It’s executed admirably.

That’s the only time I’ll say anything nice about Fujimiya, who shows up way too much and is obnoxiously creepy. It’s played broad, but I do not care for him at all. I will say that it allows for Kyuta to deliver a literal ass kicking that I felt was well earned.

Part of the problem here is that I think Suzuki is actually smarter than her own material. When Fujimiya threatens everybody to get Hina to obey him (have I mentioned I hate him yet?), the solution to his threat is kind of brilliant.

The slow simmering romance between Hina and Kyuta is terribly sweet, if understated. He kind of acts like a dick during the cosplay section and his motivation for his actions remains woefully opaque. The whole truck escapade is a dud of a thing. Yet they still make for an appealing couple, despite it all.

This doesn’t appear to have any big ideas or goal propelling it, minus a romance that is cute but not the focus. It just clunks along, occasionally having a great moment that reminds you why you bothered. Those moments really do make it worthwhile though; they’re really that good.

3 stars - I’m not expecting anything more out of this series at this stage than the couple gag moments that make me laugh, props to those, and some romance that may or may not make sense. Not the worst, but not the best either.

Thanks to NetGalley and VIZ Media for the ARC.

Still cute, and we get to see side characters grow. Story-wise, its hard to tell whether the creep vampire guy is supposed to be taken seriously as a threat or not. I'm more invested in the school life stuff.

This wasn't a bad volume. I do feel like it's a little less meaty though, with only two major points that occur, and some minor ones. Much more lighthearted in general, even for this series. So have my notes:

1. Hoshino deserves better. That said, with the way his character arc and development have gone so far, I really hope that this doesn't become a recurring theme for him every time he gets the spotlight. He deserves better development beyond what he has dealt with up to this point.

2. Viktor pulling a "trap card" on Fujimiya was excellent. I love the way that was executed, and it fits very well with what groundwork regarding the lore of this series has been laid out so far.

3. It feels like we're really starting to see Kyuta developing feelings for Hina, and I like that it's showing up in ways where aspects of her passion as an otaku are managing to touch his heart.

I just love Amanatsu. He’s the rational angry male lead that I just love!!!! Everyone else in this series is insane. This is a fun time for sure lol

Another fun volume.

Loved how Viktor dealt with the stalker and the story arc at the hot spring with Hoshino was hilarious.
Personally, I think Amanatsu acted a bit like an ass at the cosplaying convention, but he did kind of get dragged there and then abandoned, so I guess we have to give him a pass.

This one was all over the place.

On the one hand, you have Hoshino, who wants to confess to Amanatsu that he's a vampire (and maybe confess his love). But Amanatsu goes and ruins it by being an ass and saying that the vampires wear him out, so he's happy he has one friend who's a human. Poor Hoshino keeps his identity a secret because of that and has to suffer for it.

The stalker from the end of the last book, Fujimiya, is in this one and is much more out of control. He stalks Hina, goes through her trash, threatens her friends, and tells her he wants to have kids with her; it's all pretty absurd very quickly. Luckily her dad saves the day, but it was disheartening she had no way to protect herself.

Amanatsu actually goes protective and seems like he's going to be nice to Hina and have fun with her, but it's quickly ruined by something completely insubstantial. It ruined it, and he stays a jerk. Viktor watches her sew a bag that she's super proud of. He compliments her and the bag, which she is obviously all grateful and smiley about. But Amantsu is a jerk about it. Why? WHY does she still like him?

I really don't know how to feel about this manga. There's nothing that keeps me WANTING to read because every time there is something else that happens to make me not like it or stop caring. It's not that I hate it; there just doesn't seem to be enough of the good stuff to keep me grabbing for it. It's a convenience read. For instance, Hina and Amanatsu get into a bad situation, and she looks like she's going to go all BA, but then she doesn't, and it fades to black. Or he looks like he's going to be nice, then turns into a jerk again. I'm getting whiplash.

Anyway, read it or don't.

This was a quick and delightful read. The series has a charm that makes it hard to put down, and its cuteness is truly irresistible. The characters are endearing, and the storyline, though short, has a warm and light-hearted energy that makes you want more.

That being said, while the manga is lovely, it does feel a little brief. I couldn't help but wish there was more to explore—perhaps with deeper character development or extended plot arcs. Despite this, the series does an excellent job of delivering its premise and leaving you with a happy, content feeling once it ends.

One thing that stands out is how well-suited this manga would be for an anime adaptation. The art style and pacing would translate perfectly to the screen, and I can easily imagine the colorful and emotional moments becoming even more impactful with animation and music.

Overall,this is a cute, feel-good read that leaves you wanting just a little bit more. If you're a fan of light-hearted stories with a dash of charm, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

I read this for free as an arc! I am reviewing this on my own!

I’m seriously loving this series more and more with each volume! Volume 3 just solidified how invested I am in these characters and their slow-burn dynamic. 💖

What I especially loved about this volume was how the male lead had to step into her world — literally — through cosplay, and not just any cosplay, but as her beloved character Mao! 😭 It was such a fun and meaningful way to show how much he’s starting to care, and his feelings are slowly becoming more visible in such subtle, tender ways. I was smiling the whole time 😩💕

Their connection keeps building in a way that feels natural, charming, and just the right kind of awkward and sweet. There’s still a lot of room for growth, which makes me even more excited to keep reading. The ending of this volume especially had me reaching for the next one immediately — I NEED to know what happens next!!

If you love romantic manga with otaku themes, slow-burn chemistry, and sweet moments that hit you in the heart, this series is definitely worth picking up. 🥹✨

A lot happened in this volume and some of it wasn’t cute or nice. There’s the powerful vampire stalking Hina that is difficult to get rid of. And Amanatsu and Hina are run over by a car, and the driver thinks they’re dead and sets out to bury the bodies. He gets a fright of his life.

On a cuter side, Hoshino and Amanatsu go to hot springs together. Hoshino wants to tell Amanatsu he’s a vampire too, but changes his mind when he learns he’s the only one Amanatsu can relax with. And Hina talks Amanatsu into going to a Vampire Cross cosplay with her as Mao, her favourite character. Turns out, others think he looks exactly like Mao too. He’s not amused by their attention.

This was a good volume. The characters are really starting to form up, and Amanatsu’s and Hina’s friendship is beginning to bloom a little. I want more.

I received a free copy from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.

amanatsu is definitely gaining romantic feelings for hina in this volume.

lots of drama: hoshino trying to tell amanatsu that he’s a vampire (and failing ☹️ but hey—pretty much got solid confirmation that hoshino has romantic feelings for amanatsu, whereas before it was a little wishy-washy between weird friendship or romantic?), fujimiya demanding lady hina’s babies and being a creep in general (although i kind of adore that about him?), and hina and amanatsu being hit by a car and almost buried alive.

to top the volume off, hina and amanatsu went to a cosplaying event and. THE. CHEMISTRY. BETWEEN. THEM. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 (although now i’m sure hina thinks amanatsu has a thing for karen—a nun from vampire cross, the anime she’s obsessed with)

can’t wait to see them together more 🥰 AND of course my baby viktor ♡ ♡ ♡

I want to like this more, it just gets a little hard when I constantly feel like we’re making light of situations that should actually be super serious. Like I’m this volume alone the one human character gets hit by a van and is hurt so badly the perpetrators try to go hide his body… but then he’s totally fine in another chapter or so. And this isn’t even touching on everything to do with Hina’s stalker. 🥲

Thanks to Viz and edelweiss for the ARC! What a cute continuation. I love how lighthearted and silly this series is. Also felt so called out with the maid cafe waitresses’ flight in thinking they were witnessing bl and them being crushed when they were wrong, haha. Looking forward to the next volumes!

I am not sure I get the over all arc which is fine we aren’t very far in but I don’t get why he would go above and beyond for her at this time. Maybe if we could get one chapter really from his pov that would help cause he seems to think she is more trouble than it’s worth for the most part which I kind of get. The vampires are creating chaos in his life.

Cute!

Very cute and funny! I love this series so far. Hina is adorable and and obsessed with her anime. Amenatsu is tired and fed up with all the shenanigans. He just wants spine rest. There are entirely too many vampires around for his peace of mind. I like this series because it is funny and you never know what to expect. Definitely want to read more!

Adorable shenanigans continue as the otaku vampire stans. There's some interesting introductions to some of the other fan culture stuff of Japan, including the high risks of stalker stuff. This volume also gets into the cosplay side of things. Additionally the main pair seemed to finally be coming to terms with their crushing on each other. Overall plenty of doki Doki!

Another great entry in a wonderful series! This one has some scares and excitement along with the usual humor and sweetness. We get some resolution to the creepy storyline introduced in Volume 2, though the underlying mystery remains. Unfortunately, the volume concludes with a chapter where Amanatsu is kind of a jerk, fairly out of character for him! Still very fun overall - 4.5 stars rounded up.

SAUR cute!!

I'm loving this series so far! It's not anything world-changing, but the characters are engaging and fun, and the plot is wacky and surprisingly full of heart.

I can't wait to read more of this series and see how the cast of characters grows!

Hoshino likes Amanatsu. Amanatsu kinda likes Hina. Hina likes Mao. And Fujimiya is currently stalking Mina.

Something, something, hot springs.
Something, something car accident.
Something, something, cosplay event.

But that cosplay event was really cute.

Another fun volume. I like how this volume explored a queer character, but it is sad when they fall for the main character. You know their love is never going to come to fruition. Hopefully, they meet someone who can love them.
