 My Vampire Knight reviews are getting quite repetitive at this point, but oh well. I am still mixing up characters and am not sure about everything that is happening. This thirteenth volume has the big reveal that
Kaname is not actually Yuki’s brother but a century old vampire that is Yuki’s ancestor and who took over the body of Yuki’s brother when he was still an infant … that doesn’t make it better and less creepy. I still dislike the shipping and I’m afraid that they’ll be endgame
. Another problem I have with the story is that it’s teasing so many interesting conflicts but never goes through with them. 

Like I’ve mentioned before, I appreciate the friendship between Yuki and Aido and I wish it would be explored more. It’s also nice that Zero is back and that
Yuki and him almost kissed
. The moments I enjoyed in this volume included him; him visiting the grave of his brother was quite sad and the graveyard was such an atmospheric setting, like most of the settings in the series. What I still dislike about Yuki’s character though is that she’s very passive; to be honest, every character is more interesting than Yuki and Kaname.

plus sombre encore que les précédents, un peu rapide, mais toujours addictif de mon côté !

I'm so confused. So. Kaname is NOT her brother? Does she really have a brother kaname? Has at any point her brother actually been in this book?

Omg I give up.

Mine de rien Matsuri Hino avait dispersé plusieurs indices quant au passé de Kaname depuis quelques tomes. Pour le coup, on est servis niveau informations, des éléments qui participeront à agrémenter la suite de cette seconde partie de l'histoire qui pour l'instant peine à s'imposer au niveau du rythme. Les personnages stagnent eux aussi. Dommage mais au moins ce tome-ci a un peu d'intérêt.
