I will be surprised if this does well enough not to get axed tbh. So far, the art seems to be the only good thing about this.

If this thing has an editor to axe it, the editor needs to do a better job of working with Yukiko.

Sure, nearly murdering someone and the consequences are expulsion

They are vampires. What else do you want them to do? Report her to the police and cause more animosity between humans and vampires? That would be counterproductive to them. They are trying to integrate vampires into human society after all. They probably gave some form of compensation to Hitomi's family to shut them up and bury the issue.

oh, and our heroine once again shown she's jumped into the situation with absolutely no knowledge, then didn't learn anything for months and months, and now for readers' convenience gets a bit of lore dumped onto her.

That's not strange. There is clear foreshadowing that she was an orphan living in poverty and jumped into this for money. She doesn't really have any interest or motivation to learn about vampires. At least not until one of her roommates snacked on her other roommate. lol The author set that up as a trigger to motivate Utao to start learning about vampires.

It all just feels kinda sloppy.

No, actually the writing is pretty solid so far, imo.

Wanting her to be undercover so she can quietly observe and interact with students .... only to then give her an official position so she stands out as someone apart from ordinary students.

It's only natural the plan changed considering what happened with Sara and Hitomi. The sublet approach wasn't working. With an official position now Utao has an excuse to interact and figure out problematic students before another incident happens. It's a bit more risky for her, but if the Chairman insists on having human students in the Academy, they need to find and deal with possible dangerous elements before something happens.

I liked this. The world seems interesting, with vampires a known quantity that even can get famous, but not quite fully integrated. I also liked the resolution with Sara/Hitomi, Sara is just a literal child whose first taste of blood was an overwhelmingly delicious blood of someone who was crushing on her. It makes you feel kind of bad for her, that she lost control of herself. To the point of literally not realizing what she had done.

If this continues, I hope it doesn't go the route of Utao getting turned.

I find it very suspicious that Sara was just standing around in a daze covered in blood. I suspect she was mind controlled into the attack. Shirotae would be capable of it, and she might have been making a statement on integration or she might have some reason to want Utao to be alone at night.

Miu's bat form is cute, but not nearly enough to contend with Shirotae at the moment.

Hmm I wonder how Utao managed to resist magic.

The jump from page 15 to 16 is pretty abrupt, is something missing there? :O

Maybe Shirotae is invisibly accompanying and protecting her, having foreseen that she will be targeted in her new role?

The little bow on her head in bat form is sooooo adorable my god!

Gonna be interesting to see how info is found on her since they're tried to keep literally everything under wraps. I also think her not being able to be charmed has something to do with Shirotae as well. Though maybe not since she knew she was trying to do charm her and flat out said it wouldn't work on her like she knew all along it wouldn't..

Also girly said she isn't biting people yet we see her biting someone right at the very end lol.

Really enjoying all the lore behind this one and were only a few chapters in and already a bunch of questions. Thanks for the translate and upload Knight Heron <3

It looks like everyone forgot that Utao is impervious to vampire charm. She could resist even Shirotae's charm, so of course Miu's charm would never work on her either. This is the reason the Chairman recruited her for this job to begin with.

Why she has this resistance to vampire charm hasn't been revealed yet.
