ok this sound stupid 'cuz i can see it's genres as shounen ai but because some people told me before that it's isn't real bl it's just fan service and there is not really a boys love between them
so is this true? is there sex and kisses? or just bites and touching because i hear the main character is a vampire

Its a real soft core BL. On the verge of being more Shounen Ai than actual yaoi. There is alot of biting, sucking, really intentional and very erotic scenes that are just as good as smex. Lots of images that evoke sexual acts. Biting in itself is extremely sexual.

Yeah, they love each other, but its a little complex to say the least. Neither are honest about their feelings until the very, very sexy end. (Btw both are vampires.)

One of my favorites for its plot and its art.

no they love each others but like each one of them is so important to the another
so it's not just fan service huh?

@Ariaofthesong
so they confessed their love at the end? like "i love you'? if yes then this is so bl

By that definition many non BL works would drop into BL genre as well.

Yes Vassalrod is BL, but it depends what you label as BL or what are you searching for in BL (ie. why are you asking).

If it's for the confession, yes they confess, but not with the actual "I love you" (as far as I can remember) but the scene cannot be misinterpreted in any other way than love, also they confession many times with super complicated in between the lines prior as well though.

You're asking because of sex? Well you wont see much of that in it, accept for 3 pages at the end of tankobon version (those pages were not published in magazine). As through out the story, let's just say it's going as far as Free is going with showing naked bodies. It's all there but you don't see it/your cut off. It's also never specifically said or indicated if they do it until the last pages as it's mostly covered up with "I need to bite you cause I'm hungry".

As for fanservice... it has it, a lot. And that is both male x male and female x female (but the yuri counterpart is significantly smaller of course).

Like I said, it really depends why you're asking.
If you're ok with borderline-BL stuff than go for it. Cause while their "bl-like happening" is important to the whole story the actual story goes way beyond that, but if you don't like hints of BL, that run away.

Umhh if they are in love with each other then its a Bl(in my opinion) The mangaka says so, so its like that
The discussion Here should be if this is yaoi (with the parts when they were sucking their blood) or Just shounen ai
