I absolutely loved the atmosphere of this book. It has such a good found family and overall community aspect to it and it honestly just feels like a warms hug. The characters are pretty great as well. I can't wait for the next volume to come out to see what happens in that one

Gods, this was such a lovely manga! Gorgeous art, really heart-warming story and excellent sense of humour! The ice sculpture, Yomi in his teddy shirt, Ume's birthday gift for Sakura - funny, adorable and sweet all in one wonderful package! Highly recommended!

Huge thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the eARC in exchange for an honest review (I am absolutely buying the printed version of this for my bookshelves though).

Thank you, NetGalley for the ARC.

I went into this manga excited that it was a completed oneshot so I wouldn’t have to worry about the story leaving off on a cliffhanger. However, I want more of this story! The artwork was beautiful and cute. The characters were written amazingly and the reader gets lots of characterization throughout this short manga. The story is a little all over the place but that’s because this is more of a collection of slice-of-life-like stories set in the same world with the same characters. It was heartwarming and hilarious. Honestly, I really want to read more in this universe because I fell in love with these characters. I cannot wait for this manga to come out physically so I can have this beautiful piece of artwork in my hands.

It is PG-13 due to some topics that are discussed but it’s really brief and the overall story is so beautiful. I think that anyone and everyone should read this. I cannot recommend this manga enough.

This is a very fun Manga.
I chose to read it because it is a standalone story and I always like to know a story ends and I don't have to wait ages for the next part. But now after reading I actually wish it would be a series. While I liked the story, it would be very nice to see the character's develop further and for some actual feelings to arise between them over time.

This was fun to read, but I struggled to connect to the characters and felt like the plot was a little convoluted at times. Still, fun and silly and worth checking out if you want a laugh!

A vampire in the bathhouse is exactly what this manga is about, a demon vampire with a hangover hears about this magical baths in the human realm, after partering with the young caretaker of the full moon baths we see the small adventures they get in this "slice of life" manga.

The mangaka has a lovely style and the manga its pretty funny, has this heartwarming vibe all over.
Its not my favorite, personally I found the story a bit basic, but perfect when you want something lighthearted and fun.

I received this book in exchange of an honest review thanks to the author and NetGalley

This is such a fun (and funny!) one-shot manga! It doesn't look like it's part of a series, but the ending does sort of leave it open for further volumes (while still wrapping up the storyline in a satisfying way for if this truly is the only volume).

I love Sakura, and I just wish this was in full color like a manhwa or web novel so I could see his pink hair! All of the characters are so fun, from Sakura and his family that runs the Full Moon Bath House to Luka and the rest of the folks that pop in from the demon realm. This is a fun manga - that's also just a smidge dirty, with more just the *suggestion* of explicit content than any actual goings-on.

Very cute and light slice of life with cute art style! There were definitely some classic manga moments (the summer festival, the sports festival, etc) and I really liked the atmosphere of the bathhouse. Was it super ground breaking? Not at all, but it didn’t stop me from reading it! There wasn’t much romance but as a slice of life with a bit of found family, it was perfect!

I will say it felt like it was supposed to be continued but got cancelled? The cliffhanger was wrapped up in the epilogue and I definitely think it was meant to continue on.

Thanks to NetGalley and Kodansha for the ARC!

This was such a cute manga! I really loved that all the characters were just vibing and then in walks a vampire who just starts becoming part of their family and never leaves?? The brothers were adorable and I just loved this little found family! Definitely a sweet short I really enjoyed! And don’t even get my started on the little brother Ume absolutely so wholesome!! No drama just vibes and the art was gorgeously done imo!

A Vampire in the Bathhouse is a sweet manga containing found-family, slice of life, and has really soft supernatural vibes to it as well. The characters are wholesome and their interactions are heartwarming to say the least. It’s a gentle, cozy read that focuses more on emotional connection than dramatic conflict, which makes it perfect for winding down. The art style complements the tone beautifully, with soft lines and expressive faces that bring the warmth of each moment to life.

Thank you to Niki Izuki, Kodansha Comics, and NetGalley for allowing me to read this in exchange for a honest review (unpaid).

This was a fun little series of stories but I feel a little disappointed that we didn't actually see them deciding that Sakura didn't need to go to Yomi's Bath House permanently. Why introduce conflict to the story if it's not actually going to play out in it's entirety in the book?

5/10

This manga had so much potential but ultimately fell a bit flat. The premise is nice, a fun and cute slice of life with a handsome demon vampire that doesn't know the human realm, but the story felt rushed, the pacing was too fast and, as a result, many of those interesting ideas weren’t fully explored...
To top it off, ending on a cliffhanger was diabolical.
If you're looking for a simple, fast-paced, fun and cute manga, this might be for you.

This was cute enough as a sweet little family slice of life, but I was expecting more movement in the romance department but it was played more as just a gag. Which I didn’t love.

Also the only real conflict happened on the very last pages and was cleared up immediately in the bonus chapter so what was the point?

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for sending me an advance copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This was so cute!!!!! I need more of these characters luka and sakura are so fun and cute. This was a quick read and would die for more of this world. A cute fun manga i recommend to anyone looking for a goofy story.

Absolutely adorable manga, with lots of humor, great characters and intriguing premise. I would love to read more adventures of those guys! The brewing "romance" potential is lovely, it's a shame it was not fully realized, but maybe it's better this way. The "will they won't they" teases the reader in best way possible.

This was a cute and fun slice of life manga! I liked the character designs and there were some laugh out loud moments. For it being only one volume, the characters felt a little underdeveloped, but they were still enjoyable. Can’t wait to see more of what this author does in the future!

This was a cute story. I enjoyed the characters and they way they interacted with one another. I will say thought that this story felt unfinished. The book ended on what seemed like a cliffhanger and then was wrapped up quickly with extra chapters. I wish we had been able to get more of this story, but it was still a fun, enjoyable read.

First of all, thank you to NetGallery and the Publisher for this ARC.

This was a fun, wholesome and easy to read slice of life manga - it is a collection of a few stories about, as the title suggests, a vampire with magic powers who travels to the human realm (and specifically, a bathhouse) and the shenanigans that follow as the vampire, Luka, discovers more about the human realm and both sides discover more about the other. The art was nice and the story had its fun moments - although note given its anthological style that there is no overarching conflict or tension, and most tensions are resolved quite quickly - so it is more of a 'fluffy' read of sorts and best suited for those who are interested in the premise and just want a mindless, almost, easy quick read than anything tense or groundbreaking. Our small cast of characters does undergo some character growth as they learn more about each other which I give credit to, but I found myself finding it a bit hard to get attached to any of the characters - perhaps due to the shorter format of the story, but I did not find them the most memorable as they did fall into a few trope-ish character stencils I have seen before. So all in all, a fun few stories that is good for a slice-of-life enjoyer who wants to enjoy a Friday night, but perhaps for someone who is looking for something more substantial, this might not be the best fit for you. Thank you again for the book and for the author/artist's hard work!

Thank you, NetGalley for an advanced ARC of this manga

A vampire from another realm comes to the human world and makes a connection with a human woman, this was a cute read at times and I thought the story was not too bad but I will not be continuing to read the rest of the books that come out.

This was absolutely adorable! So wholesome and fun with sweet and silly characters and scenes. The ending felt a bit abrupt, I wish it had been brought to an end more cohesively
