The first look of this title seems to be like a real Loli-fest that has no real story.
But this is not the case. The main characters are something if not if Karin Maaka was not a daughter to Vampires, this would be like a normal Romantic Comedy. This series demands a separate post, is due to the character development of Kenta Usui and Karin Maaka and her family.
Not to place an entire plot synopsis on the post, but the story grows into a nice story about love blossoming into a life long commitment to each other at the cost of a person’s past. The past about Kenta’s early childhood reminds of my own and Kenta’s resolution to that is similar to mine. I won’t say anymore about my past here, but it there in the manga for all to read and understand. Karin having being abnormal as a vampire that give’s blood instead of taking it away. She runs into Kenta’s mon, Fumio, at night to relieve her urges of blood letting. The dose of blood gives Fumio energy to go off and fight off her pushy boss and gets fired too. After school, Kenta and Karin run into each other and Karin has her urges come up and she looses herself and from her nose is the best looking nosebleed I ever seen, onto Kenta’s shirt and finds out what she is. They cope with each other as Kenta is the only human that knows about that Karin is a vampire.
They work in the same place and Kenta is a working hard because his mother lost her job and is working two jobs. Kenta and Karin grow closer together as the months go by and we learn more about her family and how Karin’s life is on the edge that her family being so different from her’s and Kenta is the only one with her during the daytime and Karin only meets her family at night.
Kenta, his family has only been hm and his mom ever since Fumio ran away with Kenta and has been for all of Kenta’s life. He just came into town from where Fumio’s mom found out where they lived. Kenta, lived pretty much alone and never had a relationship with his family outside of his mom. This is where the story starts, of a young man with little family, no one to care about and no one who wants to know for what he actually is; and about a girl who is alone in the day, seeking what she needs for her life to live and finding someone to help her.
The conflicts that have developed and then changed as the story progressed. This is a series that is must read for those that have or had an interest or experiences of separation from each other and having afeeling of not belonging to their own family. This series really brings me here, front and center that this has bittersweet ending that can only come out after certain events. The Omake of the future of Karin and Kenta, really made me happy, that there can be a happy and pleasant life after the final commitment that cannot be undone. That there is sadness and loneliness and to live a happy life, sacrifices must be made, but that is better than leaving as they are.
