#Vampire Dormitory Releases Main Trailer

The Vampire Dormitory anime, which premieres on April 7, has received a main trailer.

Vampire Dormitory is based on the Kodansha-published manga by Ema Touyama, which started serialization in Nakayoshi in 2018 and has 13 tankoubon volumes as of March 2024. The anime commemorates the 70th anniversary of Nakayoshi and Touyama’s 20th anniversary as a manga author. 

Kodansha USA describes the Vampire Dormitory manga as:

“I’ll do it! I’ll become your thrall!” A crossdressing girl and an obsessive vampire find themselves entangled in a dangerous relationship. A heart-pounding BL-esque romance drama from the award-winning Ema Toyama (Missions of Love, Aoba-kun’s Confessions)!

Mito, who has no family to rely on, lives on the streets, disguised as a boy. Ruka, a vampire, saves her from a perilous situation and makes her an offer: become his subservient thrall from which he can feed whenever he wants, and she can live with him—in the boys’ dorm. Because her very existence depends on her secret not being found out, every day is a new danger—to say nothing of that vampire! Meanwhile, Ruka, not knowing Mito’s a girl, dotes on her night and day in an attempt to ripen her “disgusting male blood,” but when real feelings develop… this dangerous romance between a crossdressing girl and an obsessive vampire begins!

Crunchyroll will stream the anime.
