Chibi Vampire’s leading lady, or, (ahem) vampire… is the sweet, and slightly shy Karin Maaka. But Karin is not your typical vampire! Instead of thirsting for blood, this young vampress has an excess of blood that she needs to give her victims! And… if all this is done right… the blood is an extremely positive thing for her “victims.” HUH?! 

That’s not all… Karin must hide her vampire identity from the rest of the world and all her friends! As if that wasn’t difficult enough, Karin’s family is constantly badgering her about associating with “humans,” especially her grandmother. Will Karin be able to have any type of normal relationship with her human crush Kenta? Will she ever be able to make her family proud… despite her inability to be a “real” vampire?
