Vampire Knight — The Anime

WHERE THE UNDEAD SPRING TO LIFE

by John Bae and Yukie Kurihara

VIZ Media has acquired the North American anime rights to Vampire Knight, so you'll be able to join the lucky Japanese shojo fans, who were witnesses to the debut of VK’s first anime episode on April 7, 2008, on TV Tokyo. Vampire Knight was directed by Kiyoko Sayama, who also directed the Skip◆Beat! anime. Nihon Ad Systems Inc. and Studio Deen were responsible for animating the adventures of Yuki, Zero, Kaname, and the gang.
