Vampire Knight Shōjo Manga to be Animated for TV
posted on by Egan Loo
The January issue (on sale November 24) of Vampire Knight manga will be animated for television in Japan.
The horror manga takes place in Cross Academy, where the student body is divided into the "regular" Day Class and the "elite" Night Class. Yuki Cross, the adopted daughter of the heaster, is one of the few people in the entire school who knows that the Night Class students are vampires. Yuki herself was attacked by a vampire — and saved by another — as a child. As such, she s the Guardians, a student group that struggles to maintain the delicate balance between the two classes. Zero, Yuki's childhood friend and one of the Day Class Guardians, happens to be a latent vampire who keeps sane by drinking blood voluntarily offered by Yuki. Meanwhile, the student president of the Night Class is Kaname — the same vampire who saved Yuki as a child.
