I'll kinda assume this is meant to be "ice queen" who is secretly doing nice things (like giving a pregnant woman effectively paid time off, sorta?), but it just comes across ... badly.

Actually less bossy and such compared to other works by the author, all things considered, I'd say.

Blood type influencing how much you get bitten by mosquitos does sound like bullshit though ...

Yes, sound like she coincidentally just enthralled someone who ... sorta .. wanted to be anyway. Maybe. A bit ambigious. ^^

It's not a deja-vu if it's actually happened before. In fact, that's the opposite of a deja-vu ...

Almost too nice an end for this dysfunction crowd ...
... was a fun ride. One of my favorites for being so atypical :)

I'm actually surprised it went into this sort of explicitly seductive content like that like this. Nice going.

This kinda cliché "I trust them anyway" development doesn't really feel earned at this point. There should've been a bit more development to make such a statement feel substantiated with something besides "those are the protagonists so of course".

... why wear a towel when you want to spend the evening playing classic SNES games?

I'm not convinced by the "it's fake/delusions" theory.

Aside from the heroine's narration (and her name) the story also flat out labels her as vampire when introduced. The bite in ch.1 looks real, with blood around her mouth, and in ch.2 you see the bite marks. The "victim" collapses, and was attacked from behind - how on earth do you "delude" yourself into that having happened that way, and having "your victim" then go along with it spontaneously? Nothing in ch.2 or 3 points specifically to any inconsistency with any of those; the vampire features are always present, there's nobody in the background or anything that does anything contradictory, the classmates don't react like it's unreal or anything.

Lastly, and to me most importantly, the trope of having changed pupils is always consistently there too. And we know playing around with character's pupils is serious business ;)

If this is supposed to culminate in a "plot twist" then I gotta say from what's shown so far it's not well done. There should at least be some reasons for doubt, but there's nothing.

What I could imagine is some sort of rule like enthralling only works if the person goes along with it willingly or somesuch thing. But otherwise this doesn't really check out for me ^^#

... and human society at large is just fine with that, or what?

what with the 2nd chapter just saying "oh yeah Vellis notes that she feels weirdly numb to people suffering for some reason" as an immediate explanation as for why she won't act like a normal human would.

Yeah, it's another very common isekai trope that quite coincidentally means the author doesn't have to actually write any character with any level of emotional complexity or depth, but can instead freely indulge in their flat writing and edgelord-ery, which totally isn't the reason that is being done ;)

Must've been a pretty insane wedding night if this is the result ...

He may have come to like cross-dressing, but even he has his limits. :D

... possibly just the wrong person asking at this point ;)

Kinda doubt it's just going to be sexy times going forwards. So I vaguely suspect the phone call was important in some way - maybe the Mom coming over, or something.

The tomato juice meme in Japanese vampire manga is just so stupid ^^#

3rd-wheel-chan getting shoved out of the story again. ^^

Correct choice to revert back, clearly.
... the interference arc didn't really do anything and the ending I guess is just sorta ... there.

But it was a fun (and sexy) idea. Decent length for that sorta thing, didn't overstay its welcome.

Feels quite lazily set up, but I'll leave myself open to a positive surprise, I suppose ^^#

It was also vandalized a couple of years ago.

I see they still haven't fixed the damage done to its face. Looks horrendous. Poor woman.

I hate these sorta nonsensical bets as setup for plot development. Even if the plot itself is already nonsensical.

Yeppyepp. Suspiciously unaffected by magic ... at least when the story doesn't demand that she kinda is. ^^

Ah yes, just what the world needs. Another generic isekai adaption with the same shitty setup as every single one of them; including slavery 5 minutes into the story. Sigh.

Hrrm, I don't know. I feel these two chapters were kinda messy and didn't quite land. Yeah, you know what it's trying to do, but I'm not sure it's really doing it all that well ...

Jesus Christ Ritz. You can't draw Nodoka running from that perspective with those proportions wearing that outfit ...
