Synopsis
Human Aoi enrolls at vampire Vlad Academy to reunite with childhood friend Yuuna, hiding her identity.
Vlad Academy is abuzz with the news of a new transfer student. The student, Aoi, decided to enroll in the school in pursuit of her childhood friend Yuuna since they had not seen each other in six months. Surprised by Aoi's sudden appearance, Yuuna explains why she had distanced herself from Aoi: Yuuna is a vampire—and so are all the students of Vlad Academy. Although Aoi accepts Yuuna's confession, Yuuna informs Aoi that she must hide her identity as a human, as not all vampires on campus are friendly toward her kind. While life under a fake persona is difficult, Aoi is ready to take on any challenge in order to spend time with her friend—even if it means taking on Vlad Academy's oppressive social hierarchy.
