Sleepless Nights and a Cool Vampire: Diving into Call of the Night Chapter 1
Ever felt like the night is calling your name? Ko Yamori, our 14-year-old protagonist in Call of the Night, totally gets it. He's so over school and daytime in general.
He's pretending to go to school, but really, he just wanders around, trying to figure out what "fun" even is. Sound relatable?
Escape to the Night
One night, Ko decides to embrace the darkness completely. He ditches his parents' house and just... walks. This is where things start to get interesting.
He's looking for something he doesn't quite understand, a feeling, an experience. Isn't that something we all search for?
Then BAM! Enter Nazuna Nanakusa, a cool and mysterious vampire who offers Ko a drink (of her blood, naturally!).
“Wanna try turning into a vampire?” she asks, like it's no big deal.
Awkward First Bite
The interaction between Ko and Nazuna is hilarious! He's so awkward, and she's just effortlessly cool and teasing. It's like a crash course in vampire etiquette, taught by someone who clearly makes up the rules as she goes.
Turns out, becoming a vampire isn’t as simple as a quick bite. Ko needs to be, like, *actually* in love with Nazuna first.
Talk about a complicated dating requirement! The hunt for romance in the dark is on.
The Perks (and Perils) of Nightlife
Chapter 1 perfectly captures the allure of the night. The freedom, the solitude, the feeling that anything can happen.
Ko experiences the world in a new way, under the neon glow of the city. It’s a beautiful contrast to his daytime boredom.
Of course, there are dangers too. He runs into a salaryman who is clearly not having a good night. Nightlife is not always smooth sailing.
Why You Should Check It Out
Call of the Night isn’t just about vampires; it’s about finding your place, even if that place is under the moonlight. It's about questioning the norm and embracing the weird.
The art is stylish, the characters are quirky, and the humor is spot-on. It's a fun, breezy read with surprising depth.
If you're looking for a manga that's a little bit different, with a unique blend of slice-of-life, supernatural, and romance, then Call of the Night Chapter 1 is definitely worth sinking your teeth into (pun intended!).
Who knows, maybe you'll even find yourself wishing for the night to come a little sooner.
