by A new vampire-themed romantic comedy is officially heading to television! Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires (Hiiragi-san Chi no Kyūketsu Jijō), the manga by Miki Yoshikawa, has been confirmed for a TV anime adaptation. To celebrate the announcement, the production team has unveiled a special super teaser visual featuring Yukie Hiiragi, the second daughter of the mysterious vampire family, approaching the neck of protagonist Shota Minamoto.
The anime adaptation was officially announced on October 31, 2026, fittingly coinciding with Halloween. Alongside the announcement, the official website and X account revealed the first promotional artwork and a comment from the original manga creator.
Known for popular romantic comedy series such as Yankee-kun to Megane-chan, Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches, and The Cuckoo’s Fiancee, Yoshikawa returns with a story that combines romance, supernatural mystery, and an unusual family living under one roof.
The story follows Shota Minamoto, a middle school student who has been living in a children’s welfare facility. His life takes an unexpected turn when he is welcomed into the seemingly happy Hiiragi family, who live in a luxurious traditional Japanese-style house. However, Shota soon discovers that his new family is hiding a shocking secret: everyone in the household except him is a vampire!
What initially appears to be a new beginning for Shota quickly becomes a strange and potentially dangerous living arrangement. Has he been welcomed into the family as one of their own, or does the vampire household have another reason for taking him in?
With its combination of vampire characters, mysterious family relationships, and romantic comedy, the upcoming adaptation promises a fresh supernatural twist on the familiar cohabitation-romance genre.
Halloween Announcement Reveals the Vampire Family’s Secret
The anime announcement was preceded by a mysterious promotional campaign designed to build anticipation ahead of Halloween.
On October 29, 2026, the official X account for Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires (@hiragihouse_PR) began posting cryptic promotional material. The account initially kept the nature of its upcoming announcement hidden, inviting viewers into the world of the Hiiragi family through a series of mysterious posts.
One of the posts was titled “An Invitation from the Hiiragi Family.” Another teaser video showed a person approaching and entering a house reminiscent of the traditional Japanese residence featured in the manga.
Rather than immediately revealing that an anime adaptation was in development, the campaign used the atmosphere of the original story to create curiosity. The mysterious house, nighttime imagery, and invitation-themed messages were particularly fitting for a series centred on vampires.
The campaign reached its conclusion on October 31, when the official account finally revealed the big news: Miki Yoshikawa’s manga was getting a TV anime adaptation.
The announcement was accompanied by a super teaser visual, giving fans their first official look at the animated project’s promotional identity.
First Super Teaser Visual Features Yukie Hiiragi and Shota Minamoto
Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires has released its first super teaser visual, featuring Yukie Hiiragi, the second daughter of the vampire family, and the story’s protagonist, Shota Minamoto.
The artwork presents a mysterious nighttime atmosphere, with Yukie leaning towards Shota’s neck as though she is about to bite him. The visual combines an alluring and slightly unsettling vampire aesthetic with the cute character designs associated with romantic comedy manga.
The full moon and dark surroundings also reinforce the supernatural atmosphere of the story. Rather than presenting the series as a conventional lighthearted romance, the artwork hints at the darker secrets hidden behind the Hiiragi family’s seemingly welcoming appearance.
The image is particularly interesting because it captures the central mystery of the premise. Shota has been taken in by a family that appears happy and ordinary, but the truth about their identities could make his new home far more dangerous than he expects.
The contrast between Yukie’s cute appearance and her vampire nature reflects the kind of humour and supernatural tension readers can expect from the series.
The teaser visual also connects directly with Yoshikawa’s comments about the importance of nighttime atmosphere and moonlight in the original manga.
What Is Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires About?
The official introduction describes the series as a desperate home romantic comedy built around a surprising family secret:
“Everyone in the family except me is a vampire!?”
The protagonist, Shota Minamoto, is a middle school student who has been living in a children’s welfare facility. One day, he is selected to move into a new home with a seemingly happy family residing in a magnificent Japanese-style house.
At first, the arrangement appears to offer Shota an opportunity to experience a proper family life. The Hiiragi household welcomes him, and he begins adjusting to his new surroundings.
However, everything changes one night when someone attacks him and drinks his blood.
This terrifying encounter leads Shota to question the true identity of the people living in his new home. He gradually discovers that the members of the Hiiragi family are vampires.
The revelation raises an important question: why did the family take Shota in?
Was he genuinely welcomed as a new member of their household, or was he brought there to become their next meal?
The story follows Shota as he navigates this unusual living arrangement with the three beautiful Hiiragi sisters. Their relationships, personalities, and hidden vampire identities form the foundation of the series’ romantic comedy and supernatural elements.
Instead of focusing entirely on horror, the manga combines the tension of living with vampires with the everyday complications of family life, romantic encounters, and unexpected misunderstandings.
This balance between dark fantasy and comedy is one of the reasons the premise stands out.

Miki Yoshikawa is a Japanese manga artist known for creating several popular romantic comedy series. Her works often combine school life, unusual relationships, comedy, and supernatural or exaggerated situations.
Some of her best-known manga include:
- Yankee-kun to Megane-chan
Yankee-kun to Megane-chan, also known as Flunk Punk Rumble, follows the relationship between a former delinquent girl who becomes a class representative and a troublemaking boy. The series mixes school comedy, romance, and misunderstandings.
- Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches
Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches is one of Yoshikawa’s most recognisable works. The story follows Ryu Yamada, a high school student who discovers that certain students possess mysterious powers activated through kissing.
As the story progresses, he becomes involved with a group of seven witches, each possessing a different supernatural ability. The manga received a television anime adaptation in 2015 and became popular among fans of school romance and supernatural comedy.

The manga received a television anime adaptation in 2022, followed by a second season in 2025.
- Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires
With her latest work, Yoshikawa explores a different kind of romantic comedy by introducing a vampire family and a young protagonist who must adjust to living with them.

Miki Yoshikawa Shares Her Excitement About the Anime Adaptation
Following the announcement, original manga creator Miki Yoshikawa shared a special comment expressing her excitement about seeing the series brought to life through animation.
She explained that the manga has a somewhat dark and decadent atmosphere, but believes that its world will look particularly impressive in animated form.
Yoshikawa also highlighted the importance of the contrast between daytime and nighttime in the original manga. While the daytime scenes have a brighter atmosphere, she has put considerable effort into depicting the darker world of night.
She specifically encouraged viewers to pay attention to the atmosphere created by moonlight and, above all, to enjoy the vampire characters.
Her comments suggest that the visual presentation will be an important part of the adaptation. The mysterious nighttime setting and the contrast between ordinary family life and the supernatural world are central elements of the manga.
The creator also expressed her excitement about watching the anime together with fans and encouraged everyone to look forward to its eventual broadcast.

The manga began serialization in Bessatsu Shonen Magazine in October 2021. It has since developed a following among readers who enjoy romantic comedies with supernatural themes.

The continuing manga gives readers an opportunity to explore the story before the anime adaptation arrives. Readers who prefer to discover the original characters and plot can also look for the official English edition through Kodansha’s K MANGA service, subject to regional availability.
Why This Vampire Romantic Comedy Is Worth Watching
Vampire stories have been a familiar part of anime and manga for many years, but Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires approaches the concept from a different direction.
Instead of following a traditional vampire-hunting story or a dark supernatural battle, the manga focuses on a boy who unexpectedly becomes part of a vampire household.
This creates several opportunities for comedy and character-driven storytelling.
A family with a dangerous secret: Shota believes he has found a new home, but the discovery that his new family members are vampires changes everything.
Three vampire sisters: The three Hiiragi sisters provide the central family dynamic, with their personalities and relationships likely to play an important role in the story.
Romance mixed with supernatural mystery: The series combines the familiar elements of a romantic comedy with the danger and secrecy associated with vampire fiction.
A distinctive nighttime atmosphere: The original creator has specifically highlighted the contrast between bright daytime scenes and the darker world of night.
A fresh story from a popular manga creator: Readers familiar with Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches and The Cuckoo’s Fiancee may be interested in seeing how Yoshikawa approaches a new romantic comedy concept.
The upcoming adaptation could appeal to fans of supernatural romance, school-life comedy, and stories centred on unusual families.

The TV anime adaptation of Hiragi-san’s House of Vampires is an exciting announcement for fans of Miki Yoshikawa’s manga. Known for creating entertaining romantic comedies with unusual premises, Yoshikawa now brings readers into a mysterious household where the members of the family are vampires.
The first super teaser visual featuring Yukie Hiiragi and Shota Minamoto immediately establishes the series’ mix of cuteness, romance, and supernatural mystery. The Halloween announcement campaign also gave the adaptation a memorable introduction.
With its story about a middle school student living with three vampire sisters, the series has the potential to offer a refreshing combination of family comedy, romance, and dark fantasy.
