Mr. Vamp Is a Vampire 1

A hilarious manga farce with rivalries, misunderstandings, and one beautiful monster. An elegant vampire thinks he's hiding in plain sight as a high school teacher—but his secret identity isn't fooling anyone, and his students love being taught by a suave bloodsucker.

With the age when a respectable vampire could live as a local lord with the fear and respect of the peasantry long since past, one vampire chooses modern Japan to hide in plain sight, drinking tomato juice and teaching at a high school under the name Yoshiya Vamp (smooth). "Mr. Vamp" thinks he's the cleverest immortal under the sun (figuratively speaking), but his supportive students all know his "secret," and his coworkers may not all be human, either…

A pretty and silly new vampire comedy for fans of BL-adjacent supernatural manga like A Vampire in the Bathhouse.
