Production Details and October 2025 Premiere
Li’l Miss Vampire Can’t Suck Right is an adaptation of Kyōsuke Nishiki’s manga series, which has been serialized in Kadokawa’s Monthly Dragon Age since May 2021. The anime is being produced by studio feel.
The production team behind the series includes Sayaka Yamai (known for Dungeon People) as director, Yuniko Ayana (BanG Dream! It’s MyGO!!!!!) handling series scripts, and Takuya Tani (Mysterious Disappearances) designing the characters. Music for the series is composed by Tomoki Kikuya.
The anime is scheduled to begin airing in October 2025 on networks such as Tokyo MX, Kansai TV, BS Asahi, and AT-X, alongside various streaming services including U-NEXT.
Musical Contributions
The series’ musical themes are performed by H△G, with the opening theme song titled “Seishun no Silhouette” (Youthful Silhouette). The ending theme, “Senkō Hanabi” (Sparklers), is a collaboration between H△G and Minami Tanaka, the voice of Luna Ishikawa.
The Story of a Lovable, Incompetent Vampire
The Li’l Miss Vampire Can’t Suck Right story centers on Luna Ishikawa, a seemingly mysterious and cool transfer student at Kashinokidai High School. Despite her vampiric nature, Luna harbors a significant secret: she’s incredibly clumsy and struggles immensely with the fundamental vampire skill of blood-sucking. Her inability to properly feed often leaves her feeling frustrated and awkward.
Her predicament takes a turn when her classmate, Tatsuta Ōtori, stumbles upon her secret. Rather than recoil, Tatsuta offers an unusual solution: he volunteers to be her “Mama,” allowing her to practice her blood-sucking skills on him. This unique premise sets the stage for a comedic and heartwarming high school experience as Luna attempts to overcome her vampiric shortcomings with Tatsuta’s unconventional assistance.
For English-speaking audiences, Yen Press has licensed the Li’l Miss Vampire Can’t Suck Right manga for release, with the first volume having launched in July.
