Ah yes. The manga where the vampire chan spend most of her on screen appearance as a SD character and everyone act like it's a natural thing.

Is there some rule in Japanese media where all male protagonists have to look incredibly bland and have zero personality? You think creators would be more creative with creating protagonists that the audience actually care about but I guess I'm wrong on that front

The ungrammatical version of the title irks me. Why can't it just be called Vampire-chan Can't Suck Properly? In any case, not familiar with manga but the premise has comedic potential. It'll all come down to the execution.

this is intentional. They try to make the MC male a self-insert for the viewer and thus super generic black-haired male fits best

I'm really glad... It's been a long time, a whole decade, since an original manga (as in, not based on a LN) from Monthly Dragon Age has been adapted into an anime.
I hope it does well!

For the people mentioning it, yes it's the same magazine that did Karin/Chibi Vampire back in the 00's.

It's been that way forever.

We'll never have enough Goldenboy, or even a Super Playboy.
