Vampire Knight: New on VIZ Anime

Welcome to Vampire Knight, the latest shojo anime series here on VIZ Anime. Watch the first five episodes right now, and prepare for a new episode every other Friday. Comment on the episodes so we know what you think!

Bloody, sexy, romantic, contentious, and dramatic — this series has everything that an anime fan could want. At the center of the drama is Cross Academy, a school where vampires (the Night Class) co-exist with humans (the Day Class). Of course, the humans have no idea they're living amongst vampires. They just think that the gorgeous Night Class'ers are dreamy, and unfortunately out of reach.

Two students know the real deal. Yuki Cross and her childhood friend Zero Kiryu are tasked with the difficult challenge of keeping the Day Class away from the Night Class, which is led by aristocratic president Kaname Kuran. But Kaname, Yuki, and Zero are intertwined in a social and political web that spins much deeper than school grounds. You'll have to watch to find out.
