Synopsis of Vampire Dormitory

Mito Yamamoto is a handsome man, so much so that women swarm the restaurant where he works every day. When the restaurant owner decides he’s had enough, he fires Mito, leaving him unemployed and without a place to call home.

Shortly after, Mito finds herself in a cafeteria and cuts her hand on a broken glass. A strange man named Ruka Saotome takes Mito aside to supposedly heal her wound, but instead he licks her blood and tells her that he tastes disgusting before asking her to leave. Later that night, Mito accidentally slips from the roof of a building and is caught by Ruka, who reveals herself to be a vampire.

Ruka explains that a man’s blood tastes disgusting, and that the blood of someone you don’t love tastes even worse. However, Ruka can’t drink from girls, so she has been looking for a handsome boy to become her slave. She proposes that Mito play that role and allow Ruka’s affection to “ripe” her blood. Mito accepts and begins living with Ruka in the Hijirigaoka Boys’ Academy dormitory. However, there’s only one problem in all of this: Mito is actually a girl!
