Cheeky Vampire: Chibi Vampire (2003)

Dt. Title: Cheeky Vampire title: Karin (Japanese) My Rating:

author (Source: Wiki )

Cheeky Vampire (...) is a manga artist, born on March 3, 1973, best known for being the author of the manga Chibi Vampire.

Inhalt (Klappentext, Tokyopop)
Karin is a cute little girl who also happens to be a vampire... with a twist. Once a month, she experiences intense bleeding from her nose - we're talking gushers! In other words, she's a vamp with blood to spare, so rather than stealing blood from humans she actually gives her blood to them. If done right, this can be an extremely positive experience that benefits the „victim“ as much as the vamp. The problem is that Karin never seems to do things right.

Meinung
The idea behind the manga is indeed quite original, a vampire who gives his 'victims' blood, rather than to take it. Otherwise Karin is not exactly the typical vampire, on the contrary, it is the black sheep of the family. During daylight it is not in the least harm, they can see in the dark just as a normal person, so they must also pay the electric bill itself.
it is funny, yes, but the story is still pretty rough sometimes. I was personally a lot of unclear and very much insight into the characters get too unfortunately. The drawing style is indeed quite sweet, but too little attention concern. Who likes Manga, and will even read a not so serious vampire story that is true with Chibi Vampire , otherwise you have to have read it does not really.

Inhalt (Klappentext, Orbit)
Like most people who own their own business, I work long hours that start early in the morning. So when someone calls me in the middle of the night, they'd better be dying ...

Mechanic Mercy Thompson is woken at 3am by a vampire calling in a favour. He has to deliver a message to a fellow undead and needs a witness that won't be noticed - and Mercy's shapeshifting abilities make her the perfect candidate.

But the assignment turns into a bloodbath and Mercy attracts the attention of not just a powerful vampire, but the even more powerful demon possessing him. She can count on the supernatural community for protection - and alpha werewolf Adam would like her to rely on him in other ways too - but when it comes to being proactive, she's on her own.

opinion
In Blood Bound Mercy Thompson is a vampire, whose car (in Scooby Doo design), they frequently repaired to support asked. You will also have the werewolves and other characters from Moon Called and again, but the focus is clearly on the blood suckers. Mercy, and thus we get glimpses into the ordered structure of the Vampires, and learn more about the band indicated in the previous powers of shape-shifter, the Mercy to make the vampires a feared and hated that respondent.

Was it because of the vampires or the fact that I've finally used to the notation, at least I could Blood Bound enjoy more than Moon Called . A few German carvers were still always there, but for gabs a lot of tension and some interesting new characters.

Inhalt (Klappentext, Orbit)
I didn't realize he was a werewolf at first.
My nose isn't at its best when surrounded by axle grease and burnt oil ...

Mercedes Thompson runs a garage in the Tri-Cities. She's a mechanic, and a damn good one, who spends her spare time karate training and tinkering with a VW bus that happens to belong to a vampire. Her next-door neighbour is an alpha werewolf - literally, the leader of the pack. And Mercy herself is a shapeshifter, sister to coyotes. As such, she's tolerated by the 'wolves but definitely down the pecking order. As long as she keeps her eyes down and remembers her place, the pack will leave her in peace.

Hardly a normal situation, but then, Mercy Thompson is not exactly normal herself...and her connection to the world of things that go bump in the night is about to get her into a whole lot of trouble.

Meinung
In Moon Called it goes, as the title suggests, primarily about werewolves, but other characters such as vampires and witches are introduced (and then in subsequent volumes closer to them to respond). The book reads almost by itself, just a fun fantasy novel as they are currently thrown in heaps on the market. Surprising twists and great new features you may expect, of course, although the main character at first seemed quite promising. Mercy is a form-walker, which is in a coyote can change. This gives it indeed had a nose, but not super powers. Somehow awakened the way in which Mercy was shown, but the image of a housewife who finally wants "more", and decides to write a fantasy novel, where they packed all their frustration in the heroine. Auto mechanic, tough self-confident, can say nothing of men, and yet it is all somehow not quite convincing.

What was particularly annoying still is the fact Mercy's former boss that originally comes from German-speaking and German einwirft now and expressions. As Briggs has studied German, I understand not, however, why these German phrases and words are sometimes so flawed.

Overall, the whole thing was not quite mature, but I do see potential.
