Vampire Dormitory synopsis

The anime series is centered around a beautiful and charming man named Mito Yamamoto, who works at a restaurant. His looks attract most female customers to the restaurant, but the owner fires him, considering this attention unnecessary.

Now, the protagonist is unemployed, but all hope is not lost because he lands another job in another restaurant. Unfortunately, Mito slits his hand on the new job. He is taken to the side by a strange man named Ruka Saotome, who, instead of using first aid, licks his wound. He declares his blood disgusting as they part ways awkwardly.

Later that day, Mito slips and falls from the roof, but is saved by the same man who licked his wound. Ruka now reveals his true identity as a vampire and says that the blood of a man like Mito, who hasn't fallen in love, tastes disgusting and can only be sweetened once he falls in love.

After explaining his situation, Ruka proposes to Mito and demands that the latter let him ripen his blood until it reaches the sweet spot. So, Mito shifts with Ruka to the Hijirigaoka Boys' Academy dormitory, and they start living together as a couple. However, the biggest problem is yet to come, as Mito's real gender is different from what everyone perceives. Mito is a girl.

Vampire Dormitory episode 1: What to expect (Speculative)

Vampire Dormitory could be a game-changer in the crossdressing genre, as the series follows a pretty intriguing plotline. The animation studio of the series, Studio Blanc, isn't that much of a well-known studio, but hopes are high for this anime adaptation.

Vampire Dormitory will be a manga adaptation, so the adaptation rate (chapters per episode) will depend on the production team. The normal adaptation rate for a manga adaptation is 3 to 4 chapters per episode, so that this anime series could follow the same.
