Midnight Secretary, volume 1

The mix of mundane work life and vampire lore creates such a unique vibe. I'm curious whether this contrast was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The chemistry between the characters feels so palpable, but I kept wondering if the story would have been just as engaging without the paranormal aspect.

The visuals really set the tone, but I wonder what influenced the decision to go with this aesthetic—was it to match the mood or to differentiate from other manga?
