Premise: Amano Akari loves dolls, so she's thrilled when she meets Sophie Twilight, a friendly vampire with a doll-like appearance. The two move in together and slowly get to know one another.

The Good: Ms. vampire is a slice-of-life comedy about a young girl who moves in with an ageless vampire. Akari is infatuated with Sophie initially because she looks like a doll, but the two quickly form a deeper bond. This isn't a romance (though the yuri is a lot more explicit than it usually is in a cute girls anime, Akari straight-up hopes to marry Sophie someday), but a lot of the humor comes from Akari being obsessive while Sophie tries to keep her from going overboard. One of Akari's fantasies is to have her blood sucked, for example, but Sophie thinks that's gross and orders her blood online. There are lots of fun facts about vampires in this universe that Akari learns by living with one, as well as stories from Sophie's centuries of life. I also liked Akari's school friends.

The Bad: Around halfway through the season, another vampire, Elly, comes for a long visit. I didn't like Elly at all. She wasn't a bad character who ruined the anime or anything. By that point Akari and Sophie had a fun dynamic, and Elly simply got in the way of that. She also rarely contributed anything fun or meaningful, mostly she just wandered into a situation to make a comment as if to remind the viewer she was there too. Elly was such a drag on what was otherwise a cute and funny anime.

Overall: Ms. vampire is a fun comedy about a girl and a vampire living together. It's mostly just cute and nice to watch, but lots of parts also managed to be funny or heartwarming. Elly isn't great and she weighs down the second half a bit. This is still enjoyable throughout just for the Sophie/Akari interactions.

COMING UP TOMORROW:
113: This anime needs to find a new place to live.
112: This anime might be the last of its kind.
111: This anime is being watched by thousands of cameras.
