BabanBabanBan Vampire episode 6 recap

BabanBabanBan Vampire episode 6, titled Vampire Under Pressure, continues from where the previous episode left off— with Umetaro Sakamoto, an actual vampire hunter, begging Ranmaru Mori, a 450-year-old vampire and the archnemesis of the Sakamoto family, to drink his blood.

Apparently, when Umetaro first saw Ranmaru drinking another man's blood in their previous encounter, he was overwhelmed by a weird desire to have Ranmaru drink his blood as well— which became his life's mission. He even claimed that he had preserved his virginity for all these years just for Ranmaru's sake, and thus begged him to drink his blood.

For all his weirdness, even Ranmaru himself was caught off-guard by this bizarre turn of events and subsequently lost his appetite. As for Umetaro, he seemed offended that Ranmaru got turned off after hearing his story. Fortunately, this strange conversation was broken up by Rihito, who stumbled into the bathhouse and caught them in a compromised state.

Although the situation seemed difficult to explain, Rihito naively assumed that Ranmaru and Umetaro had sneaked into the bathhouse for a midnight bath. Afterward, Ranmaru revealed that he wasn't the one who took Umetaro's ancestor's life all those centuries back— he was simply the one who put him out of his misery due to his love for him.

The rest of the episode mostly focused on Umetaro Sakamoto's obsession with Ranmaru. He was visibly jealous of Rihito, since the latter was the only one who Ranmaru had his sights on. As such, Umetaro started monitoring Rihito at school, which eventually resulted in a fight between Franken and him.

Franken assumed that Umetaro was a pervert who had his eyes on Rihito. However, when Umetaro learned about Franken's desire to get his sister married to Rihito, he realized he could use Franken and help Rihito get closer to Aoi, so that he could eventually lose his virginity, which would cause Ranmaru to lose all interest in Rihito and focus on Umetaro instead.

As such, Umetaro formed a truce with Franken and offered to help him in getting Rihito closer to Aoi. To accomplish this, Franken decided to take Aoi with him to Koi bathhouse that day. With this, the episode came to an end.
