Goodreads Synopsis:
At Millennium Academy,
elite vampires are trained to maintain balance in a world where humans
and vampires, who possess far greater physical strength than their human
neighbors, coexist. When Aldred, the most distinctly un-vampire-like
vampire to be found in the entire institution, meets Kei, a human
transfer student to the school, their destinies become surprisingly
intertwined, and the fate of the world as they know it comes to lie in
their hands. Will the unlikely duo be able to break the vicious cycle of
blood and chaos that comes every millennium on the ominous night of the
Twin Moons?
Review:
This is clearly an
earlier work of Toboso, as the quality is very inexperienced.
The whole volume is
about a vampire school, and a close group of friends that are trying to deal
with the attack on them. Aldred finds out he’s the chosen one to wield Kei, a
human chosen to turn into a sword for him.
Honestly, the plot
didn’t really interest me. The characterization wasn’t very good. The art is an
earlier style, unlike her newer stuff. There’s an interesting group of
characters, but I didn’t grow very close to them. It has a happy ending, so
that was nice.
It just didn’t pull
me in like I wanted. An interesting book, especially if you like Toboso, but
otherwise just meh.
