Welllll....excuse the following rant...What the hell's wrong with Yuki?! "I'll accept any punisment"?! Is this BDSM or something? I like Kaname, but he and Yuki are in what I'd describe as an unhealthy, abusive relationship. Personally, I wouldn't have just sat (lied) there and taken it! I would've kicked Kaname's 10,000 year old balls up his bloodsucking throat!Yuki's been pissing the hell out of me lately...As for Zero and Kaname, I continually to feel for them equally. I cried for them both in this volume. Hino is an expert on rendering readers nearly incapable of truly disliking either of the two heroes. (Oh, and it was hilarious when Zero had to carry Aido into the hunter's safehouse. I adore Aido, I really do).Loved the shorts at the end. Overall a good volume, but I've read better in this series. Here's hoping vol. 14 picks up the slack. And here's hoping Yuki grows a pair... Volume 13 of Vampire Knight is the most confusing volume to date. I had to read it twice to even begin to understand it. By the end of my second go round, I was quite fond of the story and the characters.We learn a lot more about Kaname in this volume. He shares his memories with Yuki and she essentially lives his past. I am not the rabid Team Kaname fan that I was at the beginning of the series, but I don't hate him either. This volume shows that he is a much more complicated character than I realized. It was nice to see him doing something other than trying to clip Yuki's wings. Plus, he has had a very sad and lonely life.The themes of this volume appear to be loneliness and loss. Because that's what you see with Zero as well as Kaname. Zero visits his brother's grave for the first time. He's despondent over the loss of his brother and is also worried that he will lose every shred of his humanity. Turns out Zero was in the right place at the right time - Yuki and Aido happen to be in the same cemetery and run into a dangerous vampire who attacks Yuki. Zero saves Yuki's life. There are no romantic moments between them, but there are some great passionate drawings showcasing the chemistry between the characters.The only light moments in this volume (and in the series in general) comes from Aido. Even in serious moments, it's hard to take Aido seriously. He's a loyal lapdog for whom things never go quite right. It's nice to have a bit of levity.I'm curious to see where the next volume takes us. While I like the sophistication of the series, I wish Hino could structure it so that it was easier to comprehend.
What do You think about Vampire Knight Deluxe, Vol. 13 (2012)?
a okej je bila, ali fali mi nešto.. uopće mi priča neide u onom smjeru koji sam priželjkivala

Very good and attention grabbing. This volume reveals some interesting history.
