Synopsis

Mito Yamamoto is a beautiful man, so much so that women swarm the restaurant he works at daily. When the restaurant owner decides that he has had enough, he fires Mito, leaving him unemployed and with no place to call home.

Soon after, Mito happens upon a cafe and receives a cut on the hand from broken glass. A strange man named Ruka Saotome takes Mito aside to presumably tend to the injury, but instead, he licks away Mito's blood, remarking that it tastes disgusting before asking Mito to leave. Later that night, Mito accidentally slips off the roof of a building and is caught by Ruka, who reveals himself to be a vampire.

Ruka explains that a man's blood tastes disgusting, and the blood of someone unloved has an even worse flavor. However, Ruka cannot drink from girls, so he has been looking for a beautiful boy to become his thrall. He proposes that Mito fill this role and that he allow Ruka's affections to "ripen" his blood. Mito accepts and begins living with Ruka in the Hijirigaoka Boys' Academy dormitory. However, there is just one problem in all this: Mito is actually a girl!

Preliminary (34/57 eps)
Please for the life of me, if you are 13 years old or had a vampire fase that you wanna go back to, this is the perfect manga for that.

Yes it gets progressively cringier and i had moments where i questioned "why am i reading this, i'm an adult" BUT it's worth it for the laughs.

Sometimes I like to read/ watch bad series, but even then I have standards, and this manga passed :)

so yeah that is my overall rating: the art is good, i cracked up everytime I saw something in french because of how cliché it made things, to me this was a ...

Preliminary (44/57 eps)
Very based story, it's a nice shoujo I guess. The plot generally started nice, but towards the end it kept declining. I'm staying for the drama though.
All in all the main character is a bit off, the rest are also whatever. I love Juri.
The story is your typical vampire x human plot, so no surprises there. I read the manga after watching the first 4 episodes of the series. I'd put it a bit under reverse harem gender, as that's what I thought it was at first. It's way average, going to below average. They need to fix up the following chapters, they're at an ...

+Soft character designs and pretty animation
+Explores bolder theme of accepting love of all types (LGBTQ)
-Horribly executed story beats and cliches; poor world-building
-No meaningful character transformation

Vampire Dormitory is more than just a buddy love story. It’s an example of what happens when the worst kind of cliches are all dumped together, resulting in a bowl of slop that’s total inedible.

A beautiful, perfect girl with no character growth that does nothing to earn her partner’s love. A trite love triangle with an abusive love rival. Horrible pacing that wastes time on cookie-cutter side characters. Story beats that flow together poorly. There is no character ...
