Summer season is rapidly approaching! It’s time to start looking ahead to the next season and thinking about what is worth watching vs. what isn’t. This is also the official thread where I will watch for shows that you mention and will enable threads for those shows to be made by our resident bot, @rikka@ani.social.

Please feel free to use this thread as a normal weekly discussion thread as well! Anything that would normally be in the weekly discussion thread any other week is welcome here.

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

      No, only watched season 1 of the anime. Why? Something coming up that I should be aware of? If this is a Usagi Drop situation, I’d rather know beforehand.

        End of Call of the Night

        let me preface this with: I don’t know a single person satisfied with the ending. Also I’m not sure how much of what I’m about to say is already covered in S1 so there might be S2 spoilers here anyway.

        If a human doesn’t turn into a Vampire within a year they die.

        If a vampire sucks the blood of a human they love they turn mortal and instantly age to their real age (usually dying in the process). Nazuna is a rare born vampire, she didn’t turn into one, no one knows whether this rule applies to her.

        To turn into a vampire you must be in love with the vampire biting you. At the very end Ko does fall for her. He knows it, she knows it, everyone else knows it. She loves him as well, he knows it, everyone else knows it. She refuses to suck his blood due to aforementioned unknown. Nothing happens. Like legit nothing.

        Ko doesn’t turn into a vampire. Ko doesn’t die either. For some fucked up reason he just stays a half-vampire without any repercussions.

        Nazuna doesn’t die either because, as mentioned, she refuses to suck his blood. Instead she just kinda fucks off with Ko at the end seemingly intent on trying to find her. That’s it, the end.
