EPISODE REVIEWS

The ending was thrilling. It’s frustrating to see Yuki make Zero lose control, but I admire his internal struggle to hold on; it’s heartbreaking and makes him the best character by far. Kaname’s final request is key, and I’m left wondering if it's out of jealousy or protection for Yuki. This will change the course of the story.

Pacing and the sense of tension, unease are beautifully illustrated in this episode. Love how the flow of emotions between the characters feels so raw. The balance between the funny gag moments and the heavy main plot was handled perfectly. While the heroine's naivety kind of frustrating at times, the story itself remains incredibly captivating. Hoping to see her grow as things progress! (Also the funny detail with the table in the Headmaster’s room was a must seen!)

A very dramatic and tense episode where we step outside the bubble of peace between humans and vampires. Zero becomes such a tragic character that he seems to be more of a protagonist than Yuuki.
