FANGS, Volume 1 by Billy Balibally

dark emotional funny lighthearted mysterious fast-paced

5.0

Reread April 2022:
This was so much fun to reread! I loved getting back into this world with all the style and fashion, the vampires, and the fact that this focused so much on mental health. I also caught a few things that I know I definitely missed the first time around! En and Ichii are still some of my favorite vampire characters, but I also fell a little more in love with Masaki and Sugi (and Darwin the tortoise). This is still a solid five stars and I’m super excited for the next volume!

Original Review Oct 2021:
I really loved this manga! I’m not sure what I was expecting when I jumped into this, but Fangs was just so good. I loved that it focused on the health and well-being of vampires in a way that I haven’t seen in any other media. I also really liked that it was so modern and the characters were so well designed. Can we take a second to admire the style and fashion that this manga has? Because it makes my heart so happy. There were also some truly adorable chibi scenes that made all the characters even more adorable.

En and Ichii were such fun characters! En was so sweet and shy and a little bit of a himbo. And I loved that all the other characters immediately wanted to adopt him! Ichii was protective and kind and funny and wasn’t afraid to let his affections be know (at least to En). I just loved them together. Also? The fact that Ichii was En’s guardian while he’s learning to be a vampire?? Just had me screaming.

Honestly this was so fun, and who doesn’t want to read about vampires just doing vampire things? I’m giving this five out of five stars. I can’t wait for the next one!
