Lampshade Hanging | |
Vampires (Manga) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
The word "vampires" is used as a name for all the humans who can turn into animals. It's never explained why, although it's lampshaded by Tezuka, who notices that Toppei is more akin of a werewolf. | |

Self-Disposing Villain: Haunted by the ghosts of his past, Rokuro Mabe anticlimactically drowns himself in the ocean for Part 1. Unclear if this was Tezuka's intention, as the as the work remained incomplete, so story ends abruptly. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Osamu Tezuka hands over Professor Atami's work to the remaining world politicians who then want to wipe out all vampires in response for the revolution's terrorist attacks. Tezuka remembers the world is also inhabited by good vampires such as Toppei, and instantly regrets this decision. | |

Kill All Humans | |
Vampires (Manga) / int_8b1a664 | comment |
Kill All Humans: A group of vampires filled with bloodlust and harbouring feelings of hatred for man's ill-treatment towards their kind, opt for this course of action. Of course, they can't invoke an all-out war. Estimates say there's only 30 million vampires in the world, including the young, the elderly and the peaceful, so they discreetly resort to espionage and biochemical weapons which later come back to bite them in the ass. | |

Riddle for the Ages | |
Vampires (Manga) / int_96a33f11 | comment |
Riddle for the Ages: Is Rokuro Mabe a vampire or a human? Toppei in wolf-form cannot bring himself to kill him. Likewise Ruriko Iwaneyama is in love with him and obsessed with finding out what his catalyst for transformation is. The manga doesn't elaborate on it any further, Lamp Shaded by Osamu Tezuka himself that the reader will never know the truth. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Rather than torch the mansion to the ground, Dracula instead enlists the help of Osamu Tezuka to uncover Professor Atami's research into messing up the Vampire race's ability to transform, reducing them to nothing but wild animals. Which of course, Osamu weaponizes against the impending Vampire revolution. | |
