Spoiler for Synopsis:

Toraki Yura is a vampire who lives in the modern age. He works at a convenience store in Ikebukuro (graveyard shift only), and lives in a semi-basement apartment that gets next to no sunlight (blackout curtains are a necessity). For the sake of going back to being human, he lives his life on the straight and narrow everyday.
However, after saving a blond-haired beauty from a drunkard, he finds out that she is Sister Iris, a nun who found her calling in exterminating vampires! Moreover, his natural enemy ended up as an unwanted guest in his apartment!? What is going to happen to Toraki’s peaceful vampire life!?

The latest work from Hataraku's author, conceived during "...the stormy days of writing the final volume of “Hataraku Maou-Sama!”, and inspired by his and his author friends' nocturnal living habits.

A few general spoilers.

Spoiler for Some spoilers:

- In Dracula's world, supernatural beings like vampires and werewolves secretly exist in the modern-day. Western exorcists tend to adapt a "kill first" policy when it comes to such beings, so many of them chose to take refuge in Japan.
Japan's spirit affairs are handled by the spiritual Hiki family, who claims descent from the legendary immortal nun Yaobikuni. The Hiki tend to be more accepting towards supernatural coexistence, provided the supernatural comply with their rules.

- MC was turned into a vampire back in early postwar Japan, by a female vampire who'd been introduced to his widowed father as a potential bride. Said vampiress murdered the father and turned MC into one after trying to protect his younger brother from her. She left mysterious parting words saying that if MC ever wants to become human again, he must defeat her and drink her blood.

- MC can consume human food. Human blood helps in unlocking the true potential of his powers. Animal blood (bought online) also helps, but his powers will be less potent. Sunlight will cause MC to crumble into ash, but it's not a true death. So long as the ashes are gathered together in time, MC can reform himself again in a few hours (but he'll end up naked). If the ashes are dispersed, then there's a problem.

This will be one novels I will keeping eye on without actually reading it until ending is confirmed. I really don't want another Hataraku Maou-sama.

Anyway who is 2nd volume girl. She looks preferable.
