The young-adult novel Twilight has grown international fandom for supernatural and vampire romances.

To add to this trend, here’s a list of vampire themed anime you might also be interested in watching.

1. Blood+

Throughout the passage of time and the shifts in backgrounds, a particular war continues to leave its mark on history, extending its influence into the modern world.

There are two major groups involved in the ensuring war.

The first group consists of monsters known as Chiropterans who can change their appearances into that of human beings.

The second group is an organization known as the "Red Shield," formed to track down these monsters and exterminate them.

2. Strike The Blood (ストライク・ザ・ブラッド )

The Fourth Progenitor—that's the world's strongest vampire that should only exist in legends.

Accompanied by twelve Kenjuu and spreading calamity, this phantom vampire appeared in Japan.

For the observation and obliteration of this Fourth Primogenitor, the government and Lion King decided to dispatch an attack mage known as a Sword Shaman.

However, for some reason, the one chosen for the observation was a apprentice Sword Shaman girl, Himeragi Yukina.

Wielding the strongest anti-primogenitor spirit spear, Yukina arrived at Demon District, Itogami City.

What is the true identity of the Fourth Primogenitor, Akatsuki Kojou, she encountered over there?!

3. Karin (かりん)

Maaka Karin comes from a family of vampires living in Japan, but she is not a normal vampire.

Vampires are normally supposed to drink the blood of their victims but Karin suffers from a condition that causes her body to produce excessive amounts of blood.

About once a month, she has to get rid of the excess blood by giving it to her "victims." But she somehow manages to go to school like everyone else her age.

Well, things are about to get more complicated.

When a new student, Usui Kenta transfers into Karin's class, she starts producing unusually huge amounts of blood, almost as if in reaction to him.

Worse, he happens upon Karin's true nature...

4. Rosario+Vampire

By a bizarre coincidence, Tsukune Aono has accidentally gotten himself admitted to a youkai academy, a school attended by monsters.

Just when he thinks he'll run away from there, he meets the beautiful girl Moka and his mood turns ultra happy.

However, she transforms into her true form when the rosary on her chest is taken off, she's a super vampire!

5. Midnight Secretary (ミッドナイト·セクレタリ)

Who wouldn’t want a vampire as a friend or boyfriend?

6. unTOUCHable (언터처블)

Vampires have evolved. Instead of drinking blood, these vampires only need to touch a human in order to obtain energy.

In this South Korean webtoon, a vampire model,  Sia Lee, is desperate to touch her prey, a writer named Jiho. However, Jiho has mysophobia.

7. Orange Marmalade (오렌지 마말레이드)

In a world where vampires and humans coexist, a human boy, Jung Jae-min falls in love with a vampire girl, Baek Ma-ri.

We know it sounds like the storyline from Twilight, but what We like about this South Korean webtoon is how it talks about race and segregation through vampire and human relationships.

8. Vampire Knight

Cross Academy is an elite boarding school with two separate, isolated classes: the Day Class and the Night Class.

On the surface, Yuuki Cross and Zero Kiryuu are prefects of the academy, and attempt to keep order between the students as classes rotate in the evenings.

As the Night Class is full of utterly gorgeous elites, this can sometimes prove to be a bit difficult.

It is completely necessary, however, as those "elites" are actually vampires.

Yuuki and Zero act as guardians, protecting the secrets of the Night Class and the safety of their ignorant morning counterparts.

As the adopted daughter of the academy's chairman, Yuuki takes her job with a serious and energetic attitude.

It also allows her to interact with her secret crush and savior, the president of the Night students' dorm, Kaname Kuran.

9. Diabolik Lovers

Yui Komori used to see dead people.

But as troubling as past glimpses of spirits, poltergeists, and psychic phenomena may have been, they pale into insignificance compared to what she's about to discover once she's forced to transfer to a new school.

Because it turns out that her own history is very different from what she thought it was, and she has a very different kind of family waiting for her.

Now she'll be sharing her living space with six very attractive young men, though not a single one is human.

And while her new dorm mates may be brothers, and their attraction to her involves her bloodline, "brotherly" is the last word to describe their intentions.

In moving from her father's church to becoming the object of six blood lusting young vampires' affections, Yui will undergo the most shocking, soul ripping and draining experience any teenage girl could imagine in her wildest fantasies... or most salacious nightmares.

10. Pureblood Boyfriend

Who wouldn’t want a vampire as a friend or boyfriend?
