Ranmaru is a 450-year-old vampire who works in a bathhouse. As a vampire he is particularly picky about his blood choices, his main goal being to drink the blood of an 18-year-old virgin. To do so, he has been watching 15-year-old Rihito, the son of the bathhouse owner who saved him from near death. Rihito must not lose his virginity before he turns 18 and Ranmaru does everything he can to prevent that. However, when Rihito starts to show interest in a classmate, Ranmaru's desperate fight to preserve the boys virginity begins.

When fantasy meets comedy!
This movie is GREAT.It's hilarious, touching, funny, aesthetically pleasing, cute and again....very cringy in the bestest way. I loved every seconds of it and it had been a while since I genuinely laughed like that. I'm definitely the target audience to such quirky jpn comedic show (+ it's about vampires and i'm kinda a connoisseur when it comes to that) so babanbabanban vampire is to me, the perfect match between fantastic ghotic horror and comedy.
There is a main plot that starts the entire movie and until the end of it, the goal remains the same. However, the focus isn't really on that aim that much but rather on how to maintain the possibility of it becoming reality and here comes all the horrendous situations, the peak comical misunderstandings, the touching deeper moments, the slice of life, the family, the friends, the past knocking back against the surface. This is the movie, all of these scenes and dialogues and of course, it is SUPER funny and unserious but there are mutliple scenes that hits deeper, that brings up more significant topics whereas it's about the humans or the vampires. In that, there is some sort of balance, like you will be able to catch up some instances that definitely makes the characters way more 4D, although 90% of the movie is still pure good vibes and funny moments. It reminded me of a series I watched in the past named "what we do in the shadows", definitely has the same energy!
It's easy to watch, the acting is superb, also super interesting to learn about the vampire lore they chose or not to use, that was a treat to me hehe. Either way, this film is very good and I highly recommend it if you search for a good easy time. Also, I've got to say, I absolutely LOVED the music bits, like what a way to introduce your character and life in a quirky, fun and memorable manner. I was obsessed with those songs bits ngl.... Genuinely such a nice and unique idea!
Babanbabanban vampire! Go for it 🧛
