Blood Lad Who Does Staz End Up With

Okay, let's talk Blood Lad. We all love Staz, right? The vampire otaku who'd rather geek out over manga than, you know, *vampire*? But who does he *really* end up with?

The Obvious Choice: Fuyumi

Fuyumi is the sweetheart of the show. She’s adorable, human (well, mostly), and completely devoted to Staz. It seems like the perfect match, right?

She's got that innocent charm. Plus, Staz is determined to bring her back to life. It's like, built-in relationship goals!

But... is it *really* that simple?

The Popular Argument

Most fans are all about Staz and Fuyumi. Their dynamic is cute. He's a powerful vampire, she's a (sort of) damsel in distress.

They go through a lot together. Think about all those crazy adventures in the Demon World! Shared hardship often leads to romance, or so they say.

Plus, the show kinda pushes them together, doesn't it?

My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves!)

I'm going to say it. Deep down, I don’t think Staz is *truly* in love with Fuyumi.

Hear me out! He's obsessed with bringing her back, yes. But is that driven by romantic love? Or is it more like… a project?

Maybe it's his vampire nature. Perhaps he just gets fixated on things.

Exhibit A: He's a HUGE Otaku

Staz is way more interested in manga and anime than, well, almost anything else. He barely pays attention to Fuyumi's feelings, even when she's, you know, a floating head.

He often forgets she’s even there! If a rare manga drops, Fuyumi is so getting sidelined.

Sorry, Fuyumi, but you can't compete with limited edition goods.

Exhibit B: Their "Connection"

Let's be honest, their connection isn't super deep. Staz spends most of his time saving her or thinking about himself.

They don't really *talk* much. He mostly drags her along on his crazy schemes.

A real relationship needs communication! Just saying.

So, Who *Should* Staz Be With?

This is where it gets tricky. Staz isn't exactly boyfriend material, let's be real.

Maybe he needs to be alone! Embrace the single life, Staz. Focus on your manga collection.

Or... maybe he needs someone who understands his obsessions. Someone equally geeky.

The Dark Horse Candidate: Bell Hydra

Okay, I know this is a long shot. But think about it! Bell is intelligent, resourceful, and surprisingly tolerant of Staz's weirdness.

She can handle herself in a fight. Plus, she’s got that cool, aloof vibe. And she can control space!

They have a more banter-filled relationship, and share similar goals. That counts for something, right?

Ultimately...

Look, Blood Lad isn't really about the romance, is it? It’s about the crazy adventures and the wacky characters.

Maybe Staz doesn't *need* a girlfriend. Maybe he just needs more rare manga.

But if he *did* need someone, I'm throwing my hat in the ring for Bell. Don't @ me!
