## Plot[edit]

Unable to sleep or find true satisfaction in his daily life, Ko Yamori stops going to school and begins wandering the streets at night. He encounters a girl named Nazuna Nanakusa, a vampire who shows Ko the joys of being a night-walker. This results in Ko wanting to be a vampire as well, but in order to achieve his goal he must first fall in love with her.

## Characters[edit]

### Main[edit]

Ko Yamori (夜守コウ, Yamori Kō)[2]
Voiced by: Gen Satō[3] (Japanese); Gabriel Regojo,[4] Katelyn Barr[4] (young) (English)
A fourteen-year old boy in his third year of junior high, who slowly finds himself unable to sleep because of his dissatisfying life. To reinvigorate himself, he slips out at night to walk the streets. Ko is trying to fall in love with Nazuna in order to become a vampire and leave his human life. It is later revealed that as he begins to develop more emotionally, he can enter into a half-vampire state. This seems to be dependant on emotional or physical distress at first, and later shown to emerge through some semblance of blood loss, whether that is from an injury or just a simple ear piercing. Anko later gives him an ear piercing kit to easily transform at will, and also believes that by entering this half-state repeatedly, Ko's vampire half will eventually take over his human half, or that as his love develops for Nazuna, the transition will complete.

Nazuna Nanakusa (七草ナズナ, Nanakusa Nazuna)[2]
Voiced by: Sora Amamiya[3] (Japanese); Natalie Rial[4] (English)
A "night-walker." She encounters Ko on his night out, then offers to stay with him at an abandoned building to free himself of his worries, where she then sucks his blood as he sleeps. She is very shy when it comes to love and gets embarrassed easily, but enjoys lewd jokes and teasing Ko. She also loves to drink beer. It is later shown that Nazuna's existence is a mystery to everyone involved, with her not even knowing her exact age, assuming she has been around 30 to 40 years. She mentions her embarrassment with not being an older more classical vampire. It is revealed Nazuna is a special case among vampires as she was not turned, but rather born as one, with a vampire mother and human father. She was begrudgingly raised by Kabura, the woman turned by Nazuna's mother, Haru, who discovered that Nazuna's life cycle is completely different, her body already fully developed after a few years even with the mental state of an infant. It is also assumed that Nazuna might be the only vampire by birth currently known. She is kept at a distance from the main vampire group due to her stunted personality, lower intelligence, and immaturity. No one knows what her birth could mean for the vampire world or what she is. Her weakness is later revealed to be her preserved umbilical cord.

Voiced by: Kensho Ono[6] (Japanese); Daman Mills (English)
A popular boy at school, and one of Ko and Akira's old friends, who also starts to hang out at night.

Akihito Akiyama (秋山昭人, Akiyama Akihito)

A vampire-hunting detective. She is a heavy smoker. She is initially introduced as an antagonist to Ko and the vampires, attempting to convince the former to give up on his dream, and revealed to have discovered how to kill vampires using their "weakness" (mementos from their human past). She is later revealed to be "Kyoto Mejiro", Nazuna's first friend and first attempt at creating a familiar. While she was originally on board with becoming a vampire to escape her home life, after an incident where her father was turned into a vampire, who killed her mother, with her using his weakness to kill him, she began to loathe vampires and kickstarted her hunting crusade. She attempted an elaborate suicide plan to get Nazuna and the vampires to kill her, which would result in the existence of vampires being exposed and people to be scared to go out at night. With the flaws in her plan unveiled, and Ko saving her from her own suicide, Anko and Nazuna reconcile and she becomes an ally to the vampires. Ko and Nazuna help her to achieve closure by confronting the vampire that turned her father and spiralled her down this path, Kiku Hoshimi.

Voiced by: Eri Kitamura[10] (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)

There is a theoretical rule, never observed, that suggests if a vampire loves a human and bites them, then the human dies. Kiku has been feverishly trying to test this rule to prove she has the emotions for love. Currently, Mahiru is her next target. It is later revealed her true motivation is to become human, testing another theory that states a vampire will turn back if they drink the blood of a human they are in love with.

The woman introduces herself as Anko Uguisu, a private detective, and she tries to get information from him on Akihito, showing Ko a photo of the man who was involved with Seri the other day. Ko lies about not knowing him, and after a tense moment, Anko lets him slide. Anko pays for the coffee and leaves, letting Ko take the change, which he spends on beer for Nazuna. However, he is unaware that Anko is stalking him from afar. Later that night, Ko meets up with Mahiru and Akira to investigate the "seven mysteries" of their school. Most of them are either nonexistent or have mundane explanations, but while checking a "haunted" classroom they stumble upon an old man who pounces on Akira and tries to drink her blood. Ko manages to fight him off long enough for the three kids to escape, but the man follows them into the hallway. At the other end, Anko shows up and lets him "die as a human," letting him turn to ash as the morning sun shines through the windows of the hallway. Ko asks why she could not let him perish in peace, and Anko chastises Ko for being naive about vampires.

Ko, shaken by the incident of the previous night, reconsiders becoming a vampire. Nazuna, noticing Ko's discomfort, assures him that the starved vampire at the school was not a typical case. Ko speaks to Mahiru about the previous night, and is asked why he wishes to become a vampire and advised to consider if it is a good idea. Nazuna, visiting Ko's apartment, tells him that she has been a vampire for a long time, and that it is not as exciting as it may seem. Unsure what to do, Ko meets with Uguisu seeking counsel. Uguisu says she is opposed to Ko becoming a vampire, as she believes that vampires are a threat to humanity, and presents him with an ultimatum; demanding that he promise to abandon his hope of becoming a vampire, at which point she will protect him from the vampires and tell him how to kill them. Ko staunchly refuses to comply with Uguisu's demands, insisting that not all vampires are bad. At this, Uguisu calls the police and reports Ko for breaking curfew. Ko flees the area before the police arrive, and hides at a playground, where he is found by Hatsuka.

Transcription: "Yofukashi no Uta" (Japanese: よふかしのうた)| Shōgo Ono| Tomoyuki Itamura| September 30, 2022 (2022-09-30)[f]
Hatsuka takes Ko to his place and lets Ko sit in a chair while Hatsuka takes a shower. When Hatsuka asks Ko for a towel, Ko discovers that Hatsuka is actually male. Meanwhile, Nazuna thinks that Ko does not want to become a vampire anymore, and asks Nico and the other vampires to let him live. Nico is furious that Nazuna wants to let him break their deal, and smashes the table, then threatens to kill Ko herself. Back at Hatsuka's place, Ko begins second-guessing himself as he recounts his encounter with Anko and the old male vampire that she killed. Hatsuka offers to turn Ko into a vampire himself after seeing a picture of the smashed table, saying it would be the quickest way to ensure both Nazuna and Ko's safety. Though Ko feels a slight attraction to Hatsuka, he declines, saying that he wants to be turned by Nazuna, even though there might be consequences for them both. Ko rushes to the rooftop where he met the other vampires before, with Nico trying to dissuade him from finding Nazuna, stating that she left and will not talk to him. Ko runs away and decides to look for Nazuna on his own after angrily telling Nico to shut up. Ko finally reunites with her at the vending machine where they first met. Nazuna quietly promises to become a vampire worth falling in love for, and kisses him.

## Reception[edit]
