Kara wrote: Good theory there. Since all vampires seem to have that 'naughtiness'/ desire buried in them, I think that Maria's interest in Zero really is genuine; personally I don't think she's being controlled or anything (we've had no recent evidence to support this...that I can recall at least

Seems like it is Hino’s style to depict desire in that way … first impression is that such an act is a bit OOC for both of them but as Kara said maybe that naughtiness is a part of vampires nature haha.

Also Sara has similar mood when approached Zero in the last chapter …



Well for Sara is more expected, but maybe is another hint that she wants something from Zero … but I don’t think that her “seductive” mood can have any influence on him haha …

Kara wrote: I'm actually curious about what's going on with Takuma So far no-ones really mentioned him in this discussion.... He shows up at the HA demanding to know if Sara is there, and honestly I'm not sure if its out of sheer loyalty to her and worry about her welfare or if he's angry...?? I'm still not sure what's going there Is he really that devoted to her??
Also, I'm curious about what Takuma has to say to Yuuki. Maybe its just as a response to her invitation to be the new head of the NC...?? Possibly, and I think it'll be interesting if that does happen because (given his alliance with Sara) that'd mean she'd be sticking around for a while

Arrgggh Takuma … his stance it’s a mystery to me too! *sigh*
We really don’t have a clear clue of where he stands, so I’ll base my interpretation mostly on the 1st arc and how Hino portrayed his character thus far…
I think he was very worried and rushed at the HA not because he was afraid for the “well being” of Sara but mostly of what she could do there … From a few scenes we saw, he didn’t want to leave her alone … he always wanted to be near her. Remember their visit at the school, at the pharmaceutical company etc … there Sara didn’t run any risk, on the contrary she was the danger for the others! Also when Takuma received Yuuki’s invitation to be the president of the new NC he wasn’t very happy with Sara’s remark that she also wants to attend at the academy with her little girls …

In short I think his role near her is to monitor her and maybe to step in the right time. He knows pretty well of what she’s capable to do and he had shown many times that he is against to her doings. And from the 1st arc we know he has great sense of justice … he went against his grandfather when he realized that he was the evil one. Also he is very loyal to his friends … I can’t see him going against Kaname or if you like allowing Sara to harm Yuuki, even if he has developed feelings for her in the process (<< which I don’t even want to think about it lol). So maybe he’ll inform Yuuki about Sara or he wants to say that he’ll take the place of the president of the NC … I think it depends of how slow or quick Hino intents to move the plot from now on.

Now if he is acting on his own because he figured that Sara is targeting Kaname from the very beginning or at some point he had any contact with him … I don’t know. The point is that I believe he’ll take the right side when that moment comes … There is also this picture …




I have the impression that the particular scene could be foreshadow cuz Kaname also touching the resin rose (=Yuuki at the academy?) when Akastuki asking him where they’ll go after … if so then the black rook could be Takuma cuz he is beside the fallen white pawn which could be Sara << the next one who should be eliminated … the white queen … If that’s a correct assumption then Takuma will go against her cuz he is the black one whereas Sara is definitely a white piece (most likely the white queen ).

First of all I totally agree with Juliet on how the romance is slowly dying in between Zero and Yuuki. There only have been minimal interactions and no hint of romance, subtle or straightforward; and I'm a Zeki fan (since chapter 1), so I should know right? lol.

And that brings me to Maria. I think Juliet may be on to something when she mentioned how Maria's blood could potentially stabalize Zero

So, since I disagree as a Zeki, does that mean we cancel each other out? XD

A new idea I got after reading this chapter .

A possible reason
why Kaname didn't wanted Yuuki to take blood tablets . Because she has
the ability to feel the many different people who gave the initial blood
/ body cells samples for making the tablets . It's not only the
physical taste that is bad . Is the sensation to feel emotions from
thousands of people at the same time . Probably a lot of sensory
overload experience . It has to be a very weird sensation . Specially to
a pureblood with more strong senses as Yuuki .

Maybe most vampires can tolerate or don't notice the presence of so many people emotions when taking the pills . Only perceive the tablets as foul tasting . But for a few of them , the sensory overload could be hard enough to react in a negative way . Even not tolerating taking them . Maybe this was the case of Zero's . He could not take the blood tablets before . Maybe after drinking pureblood's blood , the blood function as panacea . To make him now tolerating the sensory overload he gets when drinking the pills .

I'm not sure if this is correct . Any opinions ?

libra wrote:@Kara. As far as I know, during Kaname's recollection we saw that the purebloods were giving their blood in order to save people's lives. People were using their blood as a drug. I haven't read anywhere in the story that the blood tablets might have purebloods cells.

Kaname didn't want Yuki to use tablets when she turned to a vampire, because he wanted her to learn how to use her fangs. Tablets would have been the easy choice for her and that's why he didn't provide them to her. After that they were feeding from each other so there was no need for none of them to use the tablets.

YUKI: one more reason I shouldn't drink this..unpleasant thing just think of all the poor humans who has to donate this blood. oh the horror!

sweetsolace wrote:Agree with libra, Kaname at that time was teaching her how to use her fangs, he even locked her up in her room, wound his wrist and then pull it away from her so she can concentrate on biting his neck, but Yuki was spoiled so she's still biting from his wrist. They did this for 6 mos, if im not mistaken, so it doesnt make sense for Kaname to allow her to take blood tablets at that period.
About Yuki sensing others blood easily, it could be so, but it would only be her palate that has this ability, and in any case, would be ..well, weird sense of taste

Spoiler:

maybe she's just having a sentimental moment with the lives lost in the creation of the tablets?

^Yuki making excuses not to take the tablets~

Yes she does! She heard it, first thing when she woke up after Shizuka leaving her body.

And if Kaname thought blood tablets would overwhelm Yuuki or affect her negatively because of her powers, it would have been much wiser to actually tell her (and Aidou) th

I can't help but wonder why it was wrong for Yuuki to use blood tablets and not to learn to use her fangs, its not like the blood tablets are such a great temptation and she can't drink from just anyone anyway. Its not actually that she didn't know how to use them, she just couldn't emotionally face it and she needed to learn to deal with her emotions, blood tablets weren't going to change that or help her avoid it, because he was drip feeding her anyway.

But really, I just assume the reason is that Kaname wanted her to bite him/drink his blood.

No, he was still alive then. She was told that he'd left and that Shizuka was dead, she didn't want to believe Kaien that Shizuka was dead. She was searching for Ichiru in ch45.

Vanille-chan wrote:
No, I do not think so. Maybe I´m wrong, but in chapter 26 (when she wakes up), she realizes that Zero isn´t Ichiru. She deduces that Shizuka was killed, but in Chapter 26 Ichiru still alive. Ichiru died on Rido´s arc.

Well, Kaname also drank the blood tablets. Even when Nagamichi (Aido) was talking to him, he drank the tablets. I just think he did not let Yuki drink tablets because he just wants her to drink his blood. That's it.
