The story of this series is so exciting and the way it has been executed is just amazing. There is never a dull moment and it offers many twists and turns as the protagonists navigate troubling circumstances. There is danger, blood, fight and gore. But despite the chaos, there is a sensitive romance with palpable sexual tension, and what a finale. As of the twist after first episode wasn't enough, the 11 episode PG series takes a complete turn and gives us a sex-filled finale, which even though it is an anime, will still rile you up. Trust me!! There is so much I wanna write about the last episode, but I also don't wanna spoil the fun. The storyteller understands how to construct a compelling narrative. The early episodes introduce dramatic tension, quickly grabbing the audience's attention and setting their expectations. I am not much to know the details of anime, but the craft here is impeccable.. form the sweat, to the water dropping form tap, to the fights, blood drinks and eventual sex; it is all done with a panache. The love story is also handled well. Mignon is a sympathetic protagonist with an endearing personality. His love interest, the sensitive and brooding doctor, balances their dynamics. The compatible couple will warm to you with their chemistry. On a flip side, it would have beneficial to know a little more details about their backgrounds. The ending is a bit mysterious and also open ended at the same time with a possibility to make a sequel if there is a demand. For now, a sizzling romance, a wonderful anime craft, a master story and a bot knockout make this BL anime a strongly recommended watch. (8/10)

I feel it's the first time I actually see an anime faithful to the paper version manga/manhwa of sexy yaoi titles. Because yes, one of the fun sides of yaoi manga are the very explicit sex scenes. Or so a friend of a friend told me... Anyway, I don't know if we should be conserering having a problem, but that scene turned us on completely.
Apart from that, I loved the aestetics. Especially that vampire transformation (... and that sex scene whoops). However... the animation is just catastrophic. I'm not asking for "Attack on titan" of "Demon slayer" level, but I don't think I've seen something that bad in ages, it was just a torture for me.
