I wouldn't call this film a masterpiece, although sometimes you might see glimpses of what might have been. The acting isn't always convincing, but you can see the joy emanate (look it up!) from the actors faces. It combines tropes from japanese high school films with (western) vampire clichés, which is a unique combination that has some really funny implications, a great concept for a comedy!
This movie's production skewers to the lower-budget side, but it has a lot of heart that (almost) makes up for it.
The film is like a novella: although it has an instigating moment it kinda doesn't resolve much, instead it focuses on character's relations with eachother. Like I said: a lot of heart.
I will put the anime this film was based on in my watch list, I'm excited to learn more about the characters.
I watched this movie at the IFFR 2023.
