People who get grossed out very easily should probably not read the book. This one STARTS by Kaname revealing the big secret from Yuki’s past. First, we find out that Yuki is actually a pure blooded vampire who’s memories have been sealed away. The second secret being that he is in fact her brother, AND her fiancé. He snidely comments afterwards that while this is something that beasts do, vampires are in fact, not human. This, while a bit disgusting amuses me, because it draws a line demonstrating that vampires actual do have a society with vastly different and far more narcissistic standards than that of human society.
Oh yeah, that’s just chapter one. During all this, some Vampire hunters have noticed Zero’s recent boon in his ability to maintain his sanity, and a new villain has been taking to the field. One of the members of the Night class is currently being possessed by one of Kaname’s enemies that he killed who wants to take Kaname’s title as leader of the Kuran house.
This volume manages to get together everything I love about Vampire Knight. The plot twists, the drama, and vampires that actually act vampiric a lot of the time. It came out before Twilight, and doesn’t act like Twilight at all. Characters backstab each other, manipulate each other, and play politics like the conniving bastards they are. The people who don’t care about this (Aido, Zero) have been brushed by the wayside in this volume, as the political power players take center stage. I certainly hope in the next volume the book maintains it’s absolute deliciousness, because this world needs more vampires with teeth.
