One of the reasons that this is one of my favorite pieces of work is because of how much chemistry all the characters have. And though not all of it's romantic chemistry, you can see little snippets of the relationships between characters present. A prime example of this is Vanitas and Dante and their little frenemy relationship with the quirky nicknames they call each other. The other main reason that this is one of my favorites is because of the art. It looks beautiful both colored and in black and white. This can be seen one pages 14/15 on the panel where you see the airship Noe is traveling on. The detail is immaculate, and something about Mr. Mochizuki's artwork draws the reader in for more, to flip to the next page, to keep reading and consuming more and more of his art.

What awaits him in the City of Flowers, however, is not long hours treading the pavement or rifling through dusty bookshops in search of the tome. Instead, his quarry comes to him ... in the arms of a man claiming to be a vampire doctor! Thrust into a conflict that threatens the peace between humans and vampires, will Noé cast in his lot with the curious and slightly unbalanced Vanitas and his quest to save vampirekind"--Back cover.
