It's boring to the point of irritating. Wasted potential.
As everyone else has already mentioned there isn't much plot, so it's character driven. But the characters are so f-ing unbelievable and stupid, just stereotypical dummies. I'm not going to touch on pedophilia issue, cause who cares, it's fiction. Sexualization of the vampire girl would be fine, if it reflected what she looks like for MC (sadly, it doesn't. upd: until the last episode lmao).
The vampire girl is more or less fine, imho. She is not a good person, not smo to relate to, but her immaturity is explainable: imagine, a not so clever teenage girl ... turned into a vampire, she's overcome by hunger and does nothing but eat (drink blood), drink beer and play around, just leading an easy life, therefore no need for personality growth - no one would expect her to be mature, really. Though if she was bored by such a life, it would much more believable and more interesting, too.
Upd: she was bored, but then she's stupid for not finding smt fun, sorry
The classmate/friend girl is also alright. Just a sad good girl with no real goal in life, I bet there are thousands of them in Japan. But she doesn't act any different in the unexpected circumstances she faces, that's the unbelievable part.
And the biggest problem is MC. He says that he doesn't understand human relations and emotions like love, that is by the age of 14, it's logical to assume that he is somewhat autistic or traumatized and neurotic, but he doesn't act like either. In fact, he is _very_ normal, just somehow not interest in anything at all (upd: he collects sneakers, so he has a little hobby and all the previous crap just makes even less sense) And he kinda has some friends in school, at least he acts like they are worth talking to and laughing with (upd: and what about the blond guy? Even MC himself said they are friends), but then he just decides to stop going to school, not even cause he's tired, but cause he can't be bothered... Also, sometimes he acts shy about echi stuff, and other times he doesn't care at all. Be consistent, would you?
Moreover, none of them really show any personality growth through their interaction (aside from kinda suddenly falling in love in ep.13). You can't relate at all, no emotional attachment. Neither are there any funny jokes, though they try sooooo hard. They spell out so many obvious things. It's full of plot holes and makes no damn sense in general, especially, how calm everyone is about vampires and seeing one with their own eyes. Really? Imagine (actually imagine, mb your tomorrow) you went for a massage and a girl just passed through the wall. No reaction??? Another thing is... why the heck do they talk aloud all the time, it looks very artificial, even though it would be just fine, (no, like, 100 times better, actually) if they made them think all these things instead. Upd: THEY SUDDENLY STARTED THINKING INSTEAD OF TALKING ALOUD IN EP.7, I'm actually losing it
The last disappointment, for the insomniac like myself, is the way they simply neglect the problem of insomnia. "Just be satisfied with your day" - like hell this would work. Just imagine how fun it could be, if the show actually tried to tackle the problem, explain the possible reasons, find more and more ways to overcome it, present them to people who can't find help irl, I would actually look over all the other problems then. But the only advice given is "step out at night, it's so fun, forget your reality and become a vampire". Nicely done, helps a lot. They try to talk about other problems, but it looks very clumsy and immature, and gives people wrong ideas about, for example, obsessive behavior (ep.9).
All in all, if the series fails to get you involved by the 5th episode, isn't it obviously bad?
Upd: something interesting happens in ep.11, be sure to stick around)))
But I'll give them a thumbs up for making MC emptier than in an isekai or hentai. Amazing!
There are only 3 good things about this show: 1. Art
2. Music (creepy nuts just hit different, they slap)
3. Voice acting
= 3/10 (a waste of time, not even bad enough to be good)

It's not awful, just ok...
The animation is nice, the music is nice, the opening slaps. There are some funny jokes in the beginning, but their timing becomes worse and worse every episode, the narrative, the characters become more boring. The battle scenes are ruined by monotonous oh so panicked explanations of details. The last four-five episodes are awfully dragged out and full of flashbacks to previous episodes. The MC could be very interesting, but he gets his op powers just because, with no real growth, while still whining and being dumb. His personality is inconsistent, one moment he cool like a cucumber, the other he ... panic and cry like an idiot without any actual reason, he wants to be better, but he doesn't, just goes with the flow even though he seemed to be realistic, scrutinizing at first and even awakened some interesting power inside his body (the shooting moment), but it just didn't play any role later on. But he just became annoying and boring.
The only interesting thing left is the mystery of this little brother and the chairman.
Started with a bang and ended with a fizzle. Real pity
