She was just down bad .

I know this is "Girls" x Vampire but my enjoyment of this right now is firmly rooted in the dynamic of these two dumbasses and I hope we just get more of them being cute and stupid instead of introducing more girls.

Nevermind I just looked at the author cus I just forgot which author I was dealing with, any possible hope for avoiding the harem tag went out the window unfortunately.

That was a great chapter - loved seeing things from Wakana's perspective.

So, the girl is only pretending to be a thrall of the vampire girl? I called it!

Because that was the most adorable route!

EXACTLY, I've thought this way the whole time, and this chapter just confirmed it, she's into goth things and Vampire-sama being there felt like fate to her, and she went along with it because it let her experience the things she loves most. :D

Welp, it seems like Ruruna is a bona fide vampire, not just chuuni, but her powers apparently didn't really work on Wakana, who is, as Kafkaproblemchild had so eloquently put, "just down bad" for her.

Yeah, that's what saddens me too. This is cute, but all other works of this author I have come across are —in my opinion— badly-written harem series. That's why I don't have hopes for this and I have decided to just enjoy it for as long as I get to.

Page 12.. woag..

Aww yiss, finally. Now I can enjoy this series without a sick knot in my stomach... and look forward to Ruruna being bullied with love and affection as a punishment for her chuuni ways.

I'm... gonna just hope it doesn't go that route. Doesn't seem it has to, so far. But yes, with the cover and title I wouldn't be very surprised if I end up dropping this, and I definitely won't recommend it unless I'm sure it doesn't turn into a harem down the road.

so Ruruna's bite one hundred percent worked, Wakana cannot remember how she got to the classroom and when ordered to sit the immediate panel reflects how her mind goes blank by showing her eye as pure black.

It's just that the enthrallment doesn't turn her into a puppet, and when commanded to praise Ruruna, Wakana's feelings of wanting to be real with someone and getting to love something with everything she is are dragged out into the open, no longer restrained, allowing Wakana to actually be the person she wants to be, all with the help of one small no worries enthrallment lmao.

Not the angle I wad expecting for Wakana tbh. Maybe she really is enthralled?

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

Real hypnosis works with the consent of the subject, AIUI. Really good mind control would probably change your desires, making everything feel natural, rather than being a clamp on your mind with you screaming internally. So still ambiguous exactly what's going on here.

Yeah, it seems like she's free of inhibitions. Since everything is being filtered through her newly unlocked goth doll / vamp girl wish fulfillment she has maintained her own agenda in a way still. It's possible almost any seemingly direct order could be reinterpreted to serve her own fantasy.

Rightt of course it must be this way hahaah

It's so cute how she yearned her whole life for a love of her own, and then Ruruna appeared giving her exactly that. The fact that Ruruna coincidently looks exactly as her... preferences, is clearly a much-welcomed bonus.

Kinda confused about this downer-posting? Setting aside the cover art as an indicator, I've read two of their (Teren Mikami's) works and neither of them were harem? They actually made a pretty wholesome 1v1 story IMO. I do know one of their works is harem-like, but I haven't read that one, and I don't think one harem story means more stories are harem.

(But yes they do have a dubcon addiction. You know, fair)

Omg the heart eyes

You're right, "all other works" being harem was hyperbolic on my part, it only applies to badly-written (in my opinion). The cover and title do indicate a harem though, I'm just hoping it was a mistake lol.

As expected, Wakana is just down atrocious. Love that for her, tbh.

Okay this is amazing. I'm not sure why the harem thing is putting people off. As excellent as the dynamic of these two is, adding more into the mix could still be fun.

Actually, I've see quite a few comments on this site across various works, complaining when things look like they might go the poly route, and I don't really get why.

I enjoy how this is turning out, blondie just wanted an excuse to fawn over someone

I'm not going to say it's most but a lot of yuri fans tend to read yuri for the intimate relationships between women generally and harems of the het, yaoi and yuri variety have a very high tendency to be badly written slop essentially where even if the girls individually are written well each relationship with the main character tends to be lacking in depth or true intimacy due to the nature of focusing on so many girls and relationships at once when most authors can barely write one.

Adding to this harem isn't really truly "poly" because it's exclusively multiple characters fawning over the main character with little to no inter harem chemistry to speak of because they must all revolve around the MC which frankly I dislike heavily.

Also this isn't related entirely to what I just posted but you have to remember that most of human society is monogamous and unless you were like a king with multiple wives (which is a whole different bag of worms and is much closer to men owning women as basically sexual or reproductive slaves) generally it wasn't seen as the norm so it's a niche within an already existing niche (WLW content) resulting in a lot of people not being down whenever something seems like it's going to go that route alongside the already existing issues mentioned above.

For my part I just want to see two girls of any size, race, monster/android/human, age etc in love and I don't really care for stuff that isn't that.

So, the girl is only pretending to be a thrall of the vampire girl? I called it!

Not sure how this chapter confirms anything. Still looks very brainwashed, sudden fixation after a bite? She realized all that epiphany just after seconds of encounter?

More like that’s just how vampire magic works, draw out their strongest feelings toward you

Maybe I'm only in the 5% or so of people reading this series that thinks like this, but I'm just here to see where it goes. If it's fun story that's good or even decent I don't care if it's monogamous, poly, harem, or whatnot. There's many forms of love out there, and I at least try to think outside of the box generally speaking. Also I'm often curious to see where a story goes, and to see a variety of experiences in media barring some content, usually on the more extreme end.

It's probably difficult to have a lot of scruples in the vampire genre. Dubcon seems built in for example. Harem wouldn't be unusual or wrong either. As someone who doesn't mind any of that I'm dreading the pages of morality check-ins for dynamics that aren't unusual for vampire stories. Especially for a manga where the tone and humor around it have been delightful so far.
