I forgot how comedic and creepy this story can be! It’s funny - especially scenes between Mahiro and Kuro - but it takes on a whole different vibe in the action scenes! The art style and story give me horror-esque Alice in Wonderland vibes, which I didn’t expect to enjoy!
I LOVE Kuro’s cat form!!! It’s so cute! And combined with his…unique personality makes me love him more! Plus, he’s a badass when he’s fighting! The dynamic between him and Mahiro is push and pull (literally), but it is a great catalyst for the plot.
Honestly, I think this manga/anime is severely underrated. It covers important things like taking responsibility, not overthinking things, understanding how your life ties into another person’s, and of course, unless you want to get dragged in a world of servant vampires (servamps), face other evil vampires, and get an unwanted house guest at the same time, be careful what you bring home!

I think the only plus about this manga was the art style. The story line was too dry, the characters were too basic. It was meh.

This was okay but rather boring. I get that all the characters have only one personality trait, but it just fucking annoys me that they have to point that out again and again. It's just not funny after the 100th time. If the characters would not repeat the same sentences at least one time on every single page, I might have enjoyed reading this.
Moreover, I sometimes find it very hard to understand what is going on or what I can see in the panel. Most of the time, I was totally confused, so I'm not going to keep on reading this. I guess watching the anime would make at least that part easier, but all those repetitions will stop me from doing that. I can only give this a 2/5-rating and be done with this series, too.
How exhausting...

It's not perfect, but it's certainly a solid start.
In general, I like the idea of vampires starting coalitions with humans to get stronger.
Even though a lot of details stay unclear after this first volume (like if there is any danger for Kuro as a servamp) and the pacing is still kind of slow, I'm pretty satisfied with the exposition we're offered.
I would have loved to learn more about the other servamps and their eves, but I guess this is what will come in the next volumes, as we're already offered lots of information.
About the characters: Kuro is a solid hit, Mahiru is ... okay? I don't have enough information yet to decide whether he has solid motivations or not. Snow Lilly seems interesting, but maybe that is because I love this type of character.
Anyway, I will continue this series and I'm curious about what lies ahead. :)

Dull. Had a great premise, but we don't really know the characters and some transitions are sudden and confusing.
