Opinion: Cute but forgettable.

To start the art is really unique but not for me personally. It’s really round and kind of dopey looking but it doesn’t really completely offset the basic storyline and characters.

I think this was a fun and cute read but overall didn’t leave a lasting impression. Every issue seems to resolve pretty quickly. It’s definitely a comedy but not that funny.

If you enjoy vampires and don’t mind cost or can read it for free this is a relaxing quick read. But with the cost of manga these days it’s not something I’d really re-read.
