Ruka (Yuma Nakayama) is a young vampire, but hasn't yet matured into a full-fledged vampire. His canines have yet to develop, which means he still hasn't tasted human blood. In order to get him prepared, he is cast down into the world of humans, where he boards with Jiro (Shiro Ito), the owner of a Chinese restaurant, and enrolls in high school. His homeroom teacher (Rosa Kato) is a cheerful, though meddlesome, young woman who catches the fledgling bloodsucker off-guard. Is he actually falling in love with a mortal?

  From what I've read around the web, this dorama didn't meet with a big success. I think the main reason is that it attracted the lovers of vampire stories but it didn't deal with vampirism in the traditional sense of the word. It defeated its own object.
  
  
  
  On the other hand, for someone like me who is only mildly interested in vampires and the whole sarg-sleeping, cross-shunning, blood-sucking process, this drama was a lot more enjoyable than I had expected.
  
  
  
  I liked the way the issue was approached, presenting the vampires as a decadent, declining, arrogant race who watches the humans with a mixture of desire and deep distaste, boarding on disgust.
  
  It makes it all the more touching when the cards are turned on the table and the one who thought himself superior is treated with contempt for his being different, a "monster".
  
  
  
  I confess at being invariably deeply affected by the issue "difference", and how people treat those who don't conform to the norm, either for their skin colour, their beliefs or lack thereof, their behaviour, their look. There are a couple of scenes in this dorama which are still vivid in my memory because they were intensely moving. They made me think once again of how cruel people can be when they ignore and how easy it is to be judged abnormal.
  
  
  
  So, although the acting is far from stellar and the plot at times inconsistent, I do believe this show deserves more attention than what it got. read more

  Most vampire stories are bloody, funny, sexy, or any of those combinations. This story is not. If youve read the synopsis then you see its about a boy who became a vampire and meets his love who is now an adult. To become a full vampire he has to suck someone's blood and he will have full powers. The ending felt rushed and extremly disappointing. I fast forwarded through most of the predictible screenplay. I felt like I wasted hours of my life I could never get back.
  
  A lot of the concepts are not explained and some common vampire myths are incorporated. Its confusing what happened to him after he was turned vampire as a teen, as to why hes in the same city as he was born in, why his sensetivities change and a lot of other things. The highlight was looking at the cute cute Nakayama Yuma, and the ending music.

  Both dramas involve vampires, though Koishite Akuma is more serious.

  Both dramas are chalkful of Vampires. Koishite Akuma is more Romance based though.
