Vampire Knight

The dark and mysterious anime that is Vampire Knight is revolved mostly around Yuuki and Zero. Yuuki is a girl who was adopted by the dean of Cross Academy after she was almost eaten by a vampire. She was saved by the handsome Kaname, who later becomes the president of the moon dorm and the king of all vampires. Later, when she got old enough she also enrolled into Cross Academy.

Zero was also adopted by the dean after vampires killed is family when he was a little boy. After, the incident he had a great hatred for vampires which is why I don't really get why he enrolled in a school that taught vampires. But, I think it was so he could keep an eye on them. He does come from a vampire hunting family which explains why vampires came after him and his family. But, I think another reason why he stuck around so much was because he had a crush on Yuuki.

Cross Academy is an elite school that teaches humans and vampires. Other than the dean, Yuuki and Zero no other human student in the school knows that the night students that they worship so much are really vampires. Yuuki and Zero are the guardians of the school, basically, their the school police and its their job to make sure that none of the vampires do anything that they'll regret later.

Here's the problem though, things get bit complicated between the two when Zero finds out that Yuuki has a deep crush on Kaname and that the seal keeping his vampire side at bay is starting to wear off. He had the seal put him to stop him from becoming a level E vampire after he was attacked by the vampire that killed his parents. Elites and Level E vampires are very different from each other. A level E vampire is a crazy recently turned vampire that can't control its thirst for blood, so they end up attacking anyone they come across. Obviously, elite vampires are the nobles of the vampire race and are extremely powerful some even have awesome magical powers. Kaname seems to be royalty among them since he's the only pure blood around.

In the beginning of this show you can tell that Kaname and Yuuki like each other much to Zero's dismay. Zero may never admit to her, but seeing them together was tearing him up inside. Zero's role in this show was being the loyal partner and friend, but also bad boy love rival. As time went by I kept thinking that Kaname seemed to know something that the others didn't. Almost at the end, the shocking truth was revealed.

Spoiler Alert: Kaname is a pure blood vampire that was transformed to a human because of a spell that her mother casted on her. Also, she's Kaname's sister.

Vampire Knight is complete when it comes to the anime and the manga. Its filled with action, romance, betrayal, mystery, darkness, drama and vampires. I guarantee you'll won't be able to keep your eyes away from it. You'll be dying to know who ends up with who and how this all ends.

Thanks for Reading!
