Rosario + Vampire (Japanese: ロザリオとバンパイア, Hepburn: Rozario to Banpaia) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Akihisa Ikeda. The story revolves around Tsukune Aono , a boy who inadvertently enrolls in a boarding school for monsters.
Rosario + Vampire began monthly serialization in the August 2004 issue of Monthly Shōnen Jump. The first tankōbon was released by Shueisha on October 4, 2004. [1] Each volume features a handful of four-panel bonus comic strips and author's notes. In the Volume 7 author's notes, Ikeda mentions that he was working with a new editor. [2]
Like the first season, Rosario + Vampire: Season II is licensed in North America and the United Kingdom by Viz Media under their Shonen Jump Advanced imprint, and in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment. The first English volume was published on April 6, 2010, with a total of thirteen volumes available as of August 5, 2014.
He had researched various monsters from the encyclopedias and the Internet. His first character design for Rosario was Moka Akashiya, a beautiful girl vampire with a crucifix around her neck; he then created the school of monsters and Tsukune afterward. He credits the beautiful girls for the series' popularity but added the fighting elements.
Ikeda drew inspirations from Kaibutsu-kun and has incorporated some references later into the first serialization of the Rosario + Vampire manga. In an interview at Lucca Comics 2012, Ikeda said he is a big fan of Tim Burton and was inspired by his works, including The Nightmare Before Christmas, and particularly Edward Scissorhands because the monster has a sensitive soul.
