Book Reviews of the Vampire Knight, Volume 2 (Vampire Knight)
Customer Review: More on the Night Class
Summary: 4 Stars
This volume of Vampire Knight shows us a bit more about the lifestyle of the Night Class and tons about the relationship between Yuki and Zero.
As it begins, Yuki and Zero encounter a berserk vampire on school ground, but are rescued by two Night Class students - Ichijo, who does most of the talking, and a gaminesque boy named Shiki. As Yuki is slightly wounded Ichijo and Shiki quicky depart so as not to trigger their bloodlust; but Ichijo calls after them that they should come to the Moon Dorm later that night once Yuki's wound has been looked to if they want to talk further about what just happened.
With a sense of foreboding but unable to resist the offer, Yuki arrives with Zero and are met at the entranceway by Aido and Kain, who escort them into the menacing heart of Moon Dorm to witness the dark secrets of...
A birthday party.
It turns out that several members of the Night Class are partying the night away, as it happens to be Ichijo's big 18th, and he warmly invites both Yuki and Zero in and even offers them some slices of cake. As Ichijo is Kaname's Veep, he presumably got the second largest number of votes in the class elections, and it's not hard to see why. While Kaname seems to inspire sheer awe, Ichijo is genuinely friendly and likeable. In fact, under his auspices the celebration seems downright human, and fun seems to be being had by all in spite of some talk of the incident earlier in the evening. Even broody Kaname apparently thinks enough of him to make an appearance.
But of course, the Night Class are still vampires with all that implies, as good intentioned as some of them seem to be they're not in fact human, and a seemingly innocent incident triggers Zero's symptoms and he's forced to leave post haste with a worried Yuki in pursuit.
It's now that the full force of her commitment to Zero hits Yuki as she's faced with the reality of his condition being ongoing and not a one-shot deal, and exactly what it's going to take both physically and emotionally if she wants him to live. And just as they're grappling with this, Zero's former master, a vampire hunter who trained and looked after him at times when his parents were on duty, arrives to see if his services are required...
Nothing new under the sun, but for some slightly darker guilty pleasure reading fun enough to keep going for those who are inclined towards this type of story - and if you got past the first volume, you know who you are.
