If you’re into cute, funny anime with a side of heart, Episode 9 of Li’l Miss Vampire Can’t Suck Right—titled “Li’l Miss Vampire and the Start of Summer Vacation”—is exactly what you need to watch this week. Airing on December 7th, this episode dives into the start of summer break for Luna Ishikawa and Tatsuta Ootori, packing silly mishaps, sweet moments, and iconic vampire trope subversion that fans love.
Let’s recap the basics: Luna is the most popular girl in class—cool, pretty, and everyone’s crush—yet she’s a vampire who can’t suck blood properly. Tatsuta, an average guy who stumbled on her secret, struck a deal: he lets her practice on him if she lets him train her to get better. Their dynamic is the show’s heart, and Episode 9 cranks it up to 11.
The episode opens with Luna and Tatsuta meeting at a local park early morning. Luna’s in a cute sundress and wide-brimmed hat (vampire sun protection, duh), and Tatsuta brings a picnic basket full of snacks—including her favorite strawberry daifuku. Their goal? Luna’s blood-sucking practice. But things go sideways fast.
The comedy here is gold. Luna tries to bite Tatsuta’s wrist, but her hands shake so much she almost pokes his eye. Just as she’s about to sink her fangs in, a group of kids yells past, and she jumps back like a scared cat. Tatsuta laughs, making Luna pout—she’s dead serious about improving, and his teasing doesn’t help. Later, at a convenience store, Luna stares at Tatsuta’s neck while he pays. The cashier gives them a weird look, so Tatsuta quickly lies: “She’s admiring my necklace!” (He doesn’t even wear one. Oops.)
But it’s not all laughs. After a string of failures, Luna sits on a bench, looking defeated. She admits she feels like a failure as a vampire. Tatsuta sits beside her and says he likes spending time with her—even if they’re just failing at practice. He hands her an ice cream cone, and her face lights up. These small, genuine moments make their friendship relatable and sweet.
The summer setting amplifies the vibe. Bright, sunny backgrounds (despite Luna’s sun hat) feel warm and cheerful. There’s a scene where they walk along a river—wind blowing Luna’s hair, Tatsuta smiling as she points at a butterfly. It’s the kind of moment that makes you want to grab friends and go outside, even if you’re not a vampire learning to suck blood.
Even without specific fan discussions for this episode, I can imagine what fans are gushing about online: the cute interactions like Tatsuta wiping ice cream off Luna’s face, or her accidentally falling into his arms while chasing a butterfly. Fans love how the show subverts vampire stereotypes—Luna isn’t scary; she’s a popular girl bad at her vampire job. Tatsuta isn’t a victim; he’s a supportive friend who helps her (even if it means getting bitten a few times).
Relatable moments hit hard for under 20s. We’ve all tried to learn something new and failed miserably—riding a bike, cooking, studying. Luna’s frustration is real, and Tatsuta’s support is the friend we all want: someone who laughs with us when we mess up, then encourages us to keep going.
The animation style adds to the charm. Characters are drawn in cute, chibi-like ways during funny moments—Luna’s big eyes and pouty lips make her adorable when frustrated. Tatsuta’s messy hair and casual clothes make him relatable; he’s no prince, just a normal kid helping a friend.
Drama elements are well-done too. Luna’s vulnerability about feeling imperfect resonates with anyone who’s ever felt not good enough. Tatsuta’s response—“It’s okay to not be perfect”—is a gentle reminder we all need.
In conclusion, Episode 9 is a must-watch. It’s funny, cute, and heartfelt, with summer vibes that make you smile. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the series, this episode won’t disappoint. Grab your snack, sit back, and enjoy the start of summer with Luna and Tatsuta—you won’t regret it!
P.S. Stay for the end credits: there’s a hint of a beach party next episode. Luna practicing blood-sucking in a swimsuit (with sun protection, of course) is going to be hilarious. Can’t wait!
