Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign Volume 9 story by Takaya Kagami and art by Yamato Yamamoto
The battle for Nagoya continues as Yuichiro's unit from the Japanese Imperial Army keeps trying to kill vampire nobles in the city. The battle at city hall seems to be going well until they run up against a top-level vampire named Crowley who wants to capture Guren, the leader of another unit who is working with Yuichiro's group and has a lot of top-level information that could be useful to the vampires. This story is mostly action with some background linking Yuichiro and Guren.
Mildly recommended.
Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign Volume 10 story by Takaya Kagami and art by Yamato Yamamoto
The action heats up as Yuichiro is taken by his former friend (and now vampire) Mika. They flee from the battle scene with some help from Yuichiro's group, which doesn't sit well with the other humans. Mika is still suffering intensely from not having tasted human blood, leading to a conflict with Yu who wants his friend to live, even if that means feeding him his own blood. While they are resolving that problem, the other humans are figuring out if they want to save Guren or proceed with the evacuation plan.
It seems like a straightforward decision not to let his friend become a permanent vampire by letting Mika drink his blood but they complicate the situation anyway. Yu thinks of Mika as a brother and wants to do anything for his family. Mika reveals a lot of the horrible things the humans have been doing, including this "Seraph of the End" project that he blames for a lot of the problems they have, including the devastating events that led to the vampires having control over the surface of the Earth. Mika also claims that Yu is part of the experiment and probably won't come out well. I have mixed feelings about where the story is going, but I will keep going along to find out.
Mildly recommended.
