In the sea of Winter 24 anime announcements, some upcoming Spring 24 shows got new trailers. Among these is the crossdressing romance anime Vampire Dormitory, which revealed its Spring 24 premiere in a recent teaser.
The show’s teaser also shows off new clips from the anime that put the spotlight on the two main characters. It’s a fairly short teaser with no voice acting, but it does give a nice taste of what to expect visually.
Its visual style combined with the premise should make the anime a must-see for fans who grew up during the 2000s.
Vampire Dormitory Promises to Be a Must-Watch for 2000s Romance Anime Fans
It might not be a particularly well-known series outside of Japan, but Vampire Dormitory is a shojo series that has been serialized since 2018 in Kodansha’s Nakayoshi magazine.
The manga is written by Ema Toyama, a prolific shojo mangaka with titles such as Pixie Pop, I Am Here!, and Kamikamikaeshi.
For her latest work, Vampire Dormitory, Toyama continues to use her art style that’s straight out of the 2000s shojo era. What’s more, its story is also something that fans of titles like Ouran High School Host Club will love.
Vampire Dormitory follows cross-dresser Mito Yamamoto, who is swarmed by women daily in the restaurant where she works. Mito is soon fired for the trouble that she inadvertently brings.
Out of a job, Mito stumbles upon a café and gets a cut on her hand. Right after, a mysterious man named Ruka appears and licks away Mito’s blood.
It turns out that Ruka is a vampire, and he proposes that Mito should become his thrall. Mito accepts and starts living in the boys’ dorm where Ruka stays. All the while, Ruka doesn’t know that Mito is a girl.
