Welcome to bookworming!!! Over this blog I make reviews whatever thing I am reading this week and make me want to comment about it, if you may be wondering: why there are only comics’ reviews by now and not a prose book at all in all the archives? Sorry… my bad, but I am so bad at organizing my time that the only books I have been able to read are the ones I have to read as assignment. I will try at least to make a review of one or two one of these days… I hope…
My spare keyboard seems to be failing so I just take it to repair, since this is going to take longer than a week and I really need a keyword for doing my homework I had to book a spare… again. That leaves me with the total of 3 keyboards, one being repaired, one broken beyond repair and the last one working like a charm… let’s hope this one doesn’t broke.
Enough about me, this time review will be of a manga I love to hate… vampire knight… I swear the only reason I read that thing is that I already unwillingly paid for it every time I bought the Shojo beat magazine… oh well maybe not as I don’t definitely pass it or read it at the end -.- , the drawing is beautiful I accept that but there are this little things each chapter that just irk me each and every single time I read it… the 3 main characters are pretty and look charismatic but lack a personality of their own, the heroine is a total inept at fighting even if she had a proper training, also… she doesn’t want to fight with them… okayyy Yuki, you may really want to have peaceful social relations with them but you know perfectly there are times they won’t doubt for a second and hurt you so the least you can do is quit the bullshit and show who’s boss… you have the skills for that… USE THEM FOR GODS’ SAKE!!!
I am too lazy to start with issue one (maybe someday) so I will jump to the two latest released chapters on the USA, 11 and 12, is not that far already at most volume 3 and the damn thing has 6 volumes and still worry so is not to late to catch on… I will threat both of these chapters as they come as a set, they explain how Yuki and Kaname relationship was long before the start of the manga. Not really spoilers but an explanation.
Chapter 11 eleven start with this page:
Random Scary Vampire: May I drink you blood
Yuki Cross: Sure... wait... NO!!! Stay away from me you pedophile!!! (She didn't say that but at least that is why wished she said -.-)
That is the earliest memory Yuki has of her life, after that she gets saved by a younger Kaname that unable to take out a single word of her lips takes her to Cross academy headmaster to see she is safe from now on, Since they couldn't find anything about her, not even her name or family Cross adopts her as his daughter. As Yuki seems to have forget everything except maybe breath(or maybe she forgots that too and that is the reason she seems to have brain damage -.-) they have to even feed her a pudin in the mouth with spoon. When Kaname tells her to say Ah! to feed her, she notices his fangs and after touching them and confirm they are pointy(duh) she creeps out, Kaname decides to leave so he doesn't discomforts here more.
Next times he checks on her happens a funny scene in which Yuki dresses by herself... but with clothes in the wrong place ... Kaname can't resist the laughter and fills the room with haha's creeping Headmaster Cross as he has never saw him laugh, Yuki definately notices Kaname apologizes and leaves but Yuki runs and grabs his coat saying: Kana... me? this being her first known word.
Kaname visits them once in a while mostly because Cross tells him Yuki is in danger, every single time being a false alarm and every single time Kaname falls for it... XD Yuki is always happy to see him but Kaname tells her every time to say his name without the Sama honorific, Yuki cannot help herself as she views Kaname as a hero. Something that saddens Kaname as he wishes to have a closer relationship with Yuki devoid of formalities.
Cross gave her the name "Yuki"as he believes all girls are princesses, meaning that to him she is his little princess... cute. Also Yuki is one of the few humans that know vampires exist as Cross tell hers but feels special as:
That sounded so dirty...
So years pass and Yuki gets acostumed with her new life... and then Zero comes to spoil it all!!! No really that happens on chapter 12...
Zero came to Cross academy after survived a vampire attack that killed his family, Cross doesn't adopt him but to keep it in place full of vampires... way to go!!! somebody get the kid a mental therapist for gods sake!!!
So obviously at the next visit of Kaname, Zero inmediately snaps and try to hurt him... stupid kid... obviously Kaname puts him in his place. After Kaname is gone Yuki tries to reason with Yuki that Kaname is not a bad vampire but Zero won't listen and even yell at her for "touching him with the hand he used to touch him" Yes people, this might be love.. bleh.
Time later Headmasters Cross anounces his intentions to open the academy to vampires to promote coexistance between the two races(Coexistence I have yet to see... Yuki, Zero and Cross don´t count I mean the rest of the school) Zero can't accept this as vampires took their family, Cross replies him that he also lost someone dear.
Still Zero has a point:
You tell them Zero!!!
Of course Headmaster Cross did as he pleased and opened the school anyways, Kaname agreed to join the Night ClassYuki visits Kaname on the dorm on the first day, since he is busy she decides to wait him on the stair... falling asleep... (is this girl an idiot or what? she basically fell asleep in a den of vampires)
Fortunately Kaname finds her before another vampire confuses with dinner, and takes him to his room... no is not what you think he wants to take her to a safer place... yeah right.
Kaname resist the temptation of
When Yuki wakes up the first thing she notices is Kaname in a really compromising position.
Okay he is not making out with this girl but if you read your Anne Rice or rolplayed you White Wolf correctly you know this is basically the same.
The girl faints because of orgasm blood loss and Kaname notices Yuki looking at him, he whispers she is cruel... Yuki runs.
After all their relationship isn't the same.
Is this over yet?Yuki: No it isn't!!! I still have left 3+ more volumes of this thing!!!!
As a final point of this long post I would like to add that Zero is
Just look at him
Look at him!!! For god's sake he is now scratching himself to bleed!! As I said before someone get the damn kid a therapist!!!
Okay kids that is all for today, till next time but before you go one more image.
Zero hates you
