I had to try out this manga with its pitch and cover! It was great to follow Luka the vampire as he discovered the human world and took part in the baths of the full moon and its warm neighborhood. The character designs are very pretty, and you can see the care taken with the chara design and even with some of the outfits. Unfortunately, the ending leaves you wanting more, as if this wasn't meant to be a one-shot, but rather that the author had set out on a series that was cut short by the publisher. Nice slice-of-life that makes you smile without too much supernatural. I wasafraid there'd be sex, but not at all, it even becomes a running gag.
There's not even any romance, just the irresistible vampire charm that works on just about everyone.
Otherwise, Ume and Pequeño are just too cute together!
