Manga Review: Vampire Knight, Vol. 9 (Paperback)


I've finished reading "Vampire Knight Vol. 9 by Matsuri Hino.

Product Description

At twilight, when the students of the Day Class return to their dorm, they cross paths with the Night Class on their way to school. Yuki Cross and Zero Kiryu are the Guardians of the school, protecting the Day Class from the Academy's dark secret: the Night Class is full of vampires!

About the Author

My Review:
 
I highly recommend reading this series and it only gets better with every volume.
 
I like the cover with Yuki in the middle between the two guys in her life Zero and Kaname.
 
Alot of things is starting to happen in this volume and things are becoming more violent and bloody now that Rido has been resurrected.
 
Zero's relationship with his twin Ichiru reaches a shocking climax with a tragic outcome but I'm not going to spoil it for you!
 
Kaname doesn't want to leave Yuki's side now in her form  but she won't leave because her friends are threatened!

Yuki finally makes her move against Rido and it's very fast paced and exciting especially when Zero arrives!

I can't wait till Vol. 10 comes out!

5/5
 
Thanks Maylene from Simon and Schuster Canada for sending me this manga for review, greatly appreciate it!

I'm totally jealous, I've only read up to Vol. 6. Did Matsuri put many sidebar notes in this one?

Hi Deidre,

I'm totally jealous because you got to read through 1-6. I've only reading Vol. 8 & 9.

Yes she did and they are so interesting to read!
