Description
The members of the Takashiro family share a terrible curse: only human blood can quench their thirst. Sent away after the death of his mother, Kuzuna Takashiro remained blissfully unaware of his 'condition.' When Kazuna's teenage hormones begin to rage, his uncontrollable bloodlust suddenly rears its head.

dark story with dark ending
please read until 46 only, don't ever read the last chapter (ch 47). I regretted so much because i read till the last chapter. I can give 10/10 if there's no chapter 47.... Last updated on September 10th, 2021, 3:53am
I started this manga thinking it was a vampire story but it's not. It's still an enjoyable, nicely drawn, dark melodramatic thriller well-worth reading.

Read this since I liked Hatsukanezumi no Jikan. The art is just as pretty, but the plot didn't capture me as did the former.. it was a pretty damn original vampire story, but I felt the the plot was way too drawn-out. This IS one of the mangaka's first works, though, so I guess that could be an explanation.
If you're patient and like the genre, you might like this one a lot.

Never finished this, so I can only speak for the first 30-ish chapters, but I wasn't really impressed. It had some really interesting moments, but the angst and drama was so repetitive I eventually couldn't take it any more. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of angst, but it was all the same stuff over and over again. Yawn. I like both vampires and incest, so you'd think that a manga that combined the two would hold my interest, but -- nope.

It had some potential, but it ran too long and wasted its potential as someone else stated. Nothing ever really happened. It wasn't as dark as it should and tried to be. "Look at me, I'm the color brown but I'm pretending to be the blackest black." My hopes that it'd grow on me was far from enough, and had it not been for my inability to stop watching/reading something halfway through, I would've chucked it out the window. Or deleted it, rather. I give it three points for not taking the common/-cheap- route and deduct one for the lame/-cheap- ending.
Petty and undeservedly brooding

Angst isn't exactly my cup of tea but there are angsty works that I have enjoyed in the past so it's not like I can't handle it. The problem an author needs to get around so they don't seem like an edgy middle schooler in the midst of puberty is that your audience needs to feel the angst with you. You can't mope and moan without imparting on the audience why they, or the characters, should feel that way.
In this manga, though, even before the protagonist's gay special snowflake disease manifests itself, he's already a brooding C U Next Tuesday, and he doesn't change much afterwards, besides developing a flair for the melodramatic. Yes, I know he is a teenager, so in that respect, perhaps the author has painted here the most realistic character ever. But that doesn't make for an interesting or compelling read. Save your time, unless you are currently in the process of painting your nails black and cutting holes in your jeans as you read this review, in which case, bon appetit!

I love stories like this. It's dark, solemn and down to earth. The focus is on the characters interaction and how they choose to deal with a life altering disease. I didn't feel like it was slow or dragged. And I liked the sketchy art style and feels it fits the mood of the series perfectly.
Excellent

A very good, dark, psychotic series. Don't listen to others who say it's about incest (because it's not). Giving your sister the tongue may be nasty but its not incest. Anyways the story is reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet and other great tales of tragic families.
Good, but..

This manga was excellent. The characters and dark tragedy was very compelling. The ending was the only thing that made it not get a 10. The ending was completely open and horrible.
