Mignon (Anime) add (All reviews)

Watching this without headphones felt like a hate crime.

Anyways, the premise is somewhat basic but interesting, vampire romances are popular certainly and the dumb puppy top/tsundere cool bottom is one of my favorite tropes. I was really not into the first half - the worldbuilding is not that convincing, maybe because of a lack of understanding on my part, a lot of the decisions the characters made (the vampire character made) felt kind of illogical to me. I was kind of frustrated with the bottom here cause he was very not cool for a vampire: why the hell would you choose to do a shitty job as a backalley doctor as a vampire that sounds like a stupid way of spending eternity. The plot wasn't all that surprising but I did enjoy the second half of the show more with the bottom finally having some character growth.

The music and aesthetic of the animation are kind of reminiscent of like 90s yaoi like Ai no Kusabi so that was an aesthetic aspect I enjoyed. The animation was very nice, some moments felt a bit stiff but I think that's more because I'm not used to Korean animation compared to Japanese anime. The 10/10 worth it part was obviously the sex scenes which honestly surprised me with the lack of obtrusive censorship elements. It was quite well done so if you're more into that than the storytelling aspect, definitely watch this one.

I also enjoyed the moment where Mignon almost dies, it was well constructed, dramatic and generally well done. Voice acting wasn't bad, nothing special.
