Hilarious new vampire anime ‘Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right' drops first trailer

A vampire who's just a vampire in the lamest way possible — like a clumsy vampire who's bad at sucking blood? That's the outrageous premise behind Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right, the slice-of-life supernatural comedy anime coming next year that's inspired by Kyosuke Nishiki's popular manga. Even though the anime has only just dropped its first teaser trailer, fans are already falling in love with its colorful cast of weirdos, humorous take on the vampire mythos and overall playful aesthetic. Here's what you should know about the exciting new anime that could become your next favorite supernatural comedy. What is Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right? This is not your average gloomy and moody vampire story. Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right (original Japanese title: Chanto Suenai Kyuketsuki-chan) centers on Luna Ishikawa, a little bloodsucker who is just trying to be super cool and mysterious at her new school. The catch? Thing is, she's awful at being a vampire. She's short, clumsy, shy—and she can't even suck blood right. When her secret comes out, thanks to her classmate Tatsuta Ootori, he resolves to help Luna become the confident vampire she hopes to be. The mix of comedy, school setting, and light supernatural elements result in a series that casual viewers, slice-of-life fans, and those fed up with the typical vampire romantic drama will all love. Watch the first teaser trailer TVアニメ「ちゃんと吸えない吸血鬼ちゃん」ティザーPV The short teaser trailer provides fans with their first look at the anime's unique style and voice cast. Luna is voiced by Minami Tanaka, who's appeared in Zombieland Saga and Wasteful Days of High School Girls. Tatsuta is voiced by none other than Kensho Ono, a well-known voice actor seen in Kuroko's Basketball and Attack on Titan. The resulting animation is as cute and colorful as the original manga, boding well for the ongoing adaptation's fun and playful tone. Based on early fan reactions on social media, they're right — Luna has been described as adorably awkward and relatable. Vampire-chan anime staff and studio details The anime adaptation is being handled by Studio feel., the studio behind My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU and Tsuki ga Kirei. The full creative team includes Director, Climate and Clean Energy Equity Sayaka Yamai (Fantasy Knockout) Shihan Akamatsu Series Composition Yuniko Ayana (the Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant) Character Design Takuya Tani (Ms. Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles) Production I.G distributed the music during production Music Tomoki Kikuya (Blend S, Eromanga Sensei) Chief Sound Director: Ryosuke Naya — Rumi Maruyama, T4A Senior Campaign Organizer Tsuji, 3DCG Director and Co-Founder Toshiro Hamamura Toshiro Hamamura. Art Director ArtDirector—FillingTheWell 1 Zechen Yang Color Palette and Design/Typography Yo Iwaida under CC BY-NC 2.0. Rieko Koike, Director of Photography This shipshape team below decks ensures an excellent goofball comedy rhythm, whimsical character design, and energetic groove that viewers can look forward to each week. Where to read the original manga If you don't want to wait for the anime, you can begin reading the manga today. Yen Press publishes the English version under the title Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right. It's an easy, often hilarious read with lots of cute scenes and character development packed in. The source material has a fantastic, off-beat world to draw from. As the new manga series on the block, 'Supanatural' has already developed an avid following for its complex and relatable protagonist and goofy take on vampire life. It's an ideal anime for admirers of Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun, Aharen-san, or Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro. Why this Vampire Anime stands out in 2025 Though anime has a large variety of vampire tales, many tend to focus on action or drama. Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right has all that—and it's the comedy and heart that set it apart. Luna isn't a fighter. She's just hoping to make it through high school without making a fool of herself (too often). It's a real feel-good anime that stays away from darker concepts and centers on character-driven comedy. Filled with eye-catching colors, goofy wit, and poignant maturing experiences, this anime just might be the next under-the-radar success of 2025. So if you're a veteran of anime or just someone looking for an enjoyable show to chill out and watch after work, give this show a shot. A must-watch for comedy and slice-of-life fans Li'l Miss Vampire Can't Suck Right Gundam Witch is arguably one of the most anticipated titles coming in 2025 and has all the makings of a fun, unique and refreshing addition to the anime universe. Its endearing blend of supernatural weirdness, cringey humor, and goofy friendships would make it a hit with kids and adult fans alike. As we look towards an official release date, stay tuned for more previews and voice cast reveals.

Cases of coronavirus have started increasing in several countries around the world, including India. Meanwhile, Ryo Tatsuki, a former manga artist from Japan, is gaining global attention again—not for her comics, but for her scary prediction. She is also famous as the Japanese Baba Vanga, as most of her earlier predictions were accurate. She has made accurate disaster predictions since the 1980s. Ryo, who records these predictions after vivid dreams, made a prediction that has scared the world. According to Ryo, another deadly virus like Covid-19 will kill thousands of people across the world. Notably, millions of people have lost their lives around the world; in such a situation, the talk of a new deadly virus knocking at the door after a few years has scared people. Baba Venga Of Japan Made A Prediction Many predictions of Nostradamus and Baba Vanga have come true so far and now there is talk of Ryo Tatsuki, whose predictions have also proved to be correct. Tatsuki has warned about the arrival of a dangerous virus like corona in the year 2030, which can kill thousands of people across the world. Let us tell you that Ryo had already talked about the Covid-19 pandemic, which wreaked havoc all over the world, causing the death of millions of people. Many Predictions Of Japanese Baba Venga Have Come True Several predictions made by Ryo Tatsuki have proven accurate. These include events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the deaths of Freddie Mercury and Princess Diana, and the major 2011 Kobe earthquake. Will The New Virus Be More Dangerous Than The Corona Virus? Ryo Tatsuki had predicted the covid-19 outbreak in her book 'The Future as I See It' in 1999 itself. She had predicted the peak of an unknown virus in 2020, which also proved to be true. Along with this, Ryo also predicted its end later. She also predicted a new and even more destructive virus in the year 2030. As per the prediction, the new virus can also kill a large number of people. Warning Of Devastating Earthquake In Japan Next Month! Ryo Tatsuki's book, 'The Future as I See It,' predicts a major earthquake in Japan in July 2025, potentially causing significant damage and accompanied by a devastating tsunami. Tatsuki also mentions a virus more dangerous than the coronavirus. Japanese authorities have dismissed these predictions as unfounded and lacking scientific evidence, urging the public to disregard such rumours.
