Okay, I saw plenty of people already say or hope it's yuri/lgbt and wonder how? How does an anime about an ancient vampire and a little girl sound yuri? Sounds more like adoptive mother-daughter than anything.
Yaa you are right, judging by the synopsis and key visual it doesn't look like a Yuri anime at all. This lasbian fans are always there to make low bait commentary whenever they see anime like this.

I think this anime will be a emotional rollercoaster, our two main lead will learn to trust each other there is a high possibility that we might get a sad ending.

Vampire Shoujo ai ? nice. although the art of the characters does not feel very "fluid"...Netflix anime


Huh, no matter how speculative potencial the show has, you'll still find people to take it and run around with it like it's already a proven fact. It was with Aquatope and Karol & Tuesday and it looks like it will be with this show as well. What's most interesting, if you start asking people about why they decided that it couldn't be, but it MUST be shoujo ai, then they usually don't even understand this themselves, saying that they just ... caught vibes or something.

"two girls want to do the forbidden"

The forbidden!! Ohhhhhh that sounds fucking juicy. Like forbidden lesbian love or even better lesbian kissing,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

Two girls that want to do forbidden things together =P I fucking love it .And if there are only females I am definitely going to watch it. I really hope for a strong Yuri with some vampire lesbians,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

So we learn nothing new except that Netflix remembered the show actually exists and the nice key visual, and a delay for who knows which reason considering the show should have already finished production. They could've at least shown a teaser.

Because lesbian vampire is big trend and synopsis sound like bff all-female show from 90-s. Also, news call them two girls.

The synopsis is very similar to Wolf's rain. It's really a great anime.

From Vinland Saga to Great Pretender to Vivy to Ousama ranking this season, Wit has been nothing but great after leaving Attack on Titan. Hope this one is great as well.

Wow is this a crossover between Naruto and Bleach. Characters looks kinda similar to Rukia and Sakura.


Same character designer from the Naruto movies.

Hell yes!!!! Wit studio for another 2022 anime. I'm excited, but I'm also scared that this is yet another Netflix original. I'll check it out though.
