DESCRIPTION:
More vampire action/adventure than BL romance I'm not really a big fan of vampire stories (the only manga/anime with this theme that I've read/watched so far were Trinity Blood and Vampire Knight), but I picked this one up because I liked the cover artwork.The story is set in Paris and its suburbs and starts when Sein, a moody, relatively well-off vampire, hires Lou, a young street artist, to draw his portrait. Lou accepts the generous offer, but matters get a little more complicated when he discovers that not only does his patron not have a reflection and therefore no longer knows what h. I wish I could paint a vampire~ I mainly picked this one up due to the cover art and the fact that it has vampires in it. The art on the inside is very well done! I'm happy that it didn't change much (if at all) from the cover.Either way, the story is off to a good start, I really want to know what happens next!

What really surprised me was how quickly I was sucked in by the story, and how surprised I was to reach the end of the book - it really just flew by. Still, Lou feels satisfied that he has found his ideal model, so he wants to stay by his side for as long as he can.Lou finds out some detail of Sein that he didn't know, concerning his grandfather - with Lou being the same likeness as his grandfather. I really enjoyed this book, and can't wait to get my hands on the next volume. --Mangacast . The characters were interesting, with new elements and an
