Now a humorous Netflix anime series!
First moved by lust, then by love, an ancient vampire learns to care for others and respect the family that he works his “day job” for.
450-year-old vampire Ranmaru Mori is “laying low” at the esteemed Koi No Yu Bathhouse, working as an attendant there. Naïve Rihito Tatsuno – the bathhouse’s heir and also a fifteenyear-old virgin – has stolen Ranmaru’s heart, and the old vampire is just waiting for Rihito to turn eighteen before he feasts and possibly turns the young man! In this volume, Rihito’s bullies return, bringing an odd, monstrously-strong friend along with them. Will this lead to a new friend or foe for Ranmaru?
This hilarious, boys love manga series from seinen mangaka Hiromasa Okujima has already been adapted into a Japanese anime series and a live-action film! Translated by Kumar Sivasubramanian (I Am a Hero, Blade of the Immortal) and lettered by Eisner Award-nominated Steve Dutro (The Fifth Beatle).

John Tarachine (W) (A) Jocelyne Allen (Translated by)
For the first time in English comes the critically acclaimed manga from John Tarachine, the author of Witch of Thistle Castle, that’s perfect for fans of BL Metamorphosis!
Generations apart, Kai and Umiko share a spirit driven to make movies – and a struggle not to be typecast, whether by youth or age.
Kai’s worn out from all the part-time jobs he’s been working because he won’t take his family’s money . . . but after a major talent agency gets in touch with him, he’s on the crest of a big decision. Is his greatest asset neither his dreams nor his determination, but his entrancing self . . . and should he start selling it to the public for whatever they think it’s worth?
Meanwhile, a celebrity’s already on campus – Sora, the popular young Insta influencer, who stung Umiko at the arts festival by suggesting she’s just a well-off granny who’s looking for a pastime past her prime. Worse, he’s convinced that he’s destined for a brilliant directorial career himself . . . and he’s just enrolled in the same film school!
But Umiko’s wondering if Sora only said aloud what many of the other students are already thinking about her. And despite his bad manners, perhaps Sora’s own sea isn’t as shallow as it first appears . . .
