DVD 4 - Human or Vampire
Humor is not the only thing the series has in its favor. Once you strip off the vampire trappings, a typical romantic scheme involving timid leads, a kinda-sorta romantic rival, a busybody friend, and a compelling reason to separate the two potential lovers remains, yet despite the banal construction the romantic hijinks stay involving. The Karin-Kenta relationship, and Maki's budding jealously over it, has a sweetness and sincerity to it that, with the backing of a nicely supporting musical score, allows the romantic story to transcend its structure. The tentativeness in the key relationship can occasionally get irritating, but that does not happen much in this volume.
