Aside from basking in the quiet nightlife – the not-busy streets, bright lights, cold air, and the starry sky – there’s also that slow moment of peace that feels real and raw. In the end, the relationship that Ko and Nazuna have, (whatever it is or will be) is an endearing one. She’s also easily relatable with her awkwardness and goofiness! (Like, really.) Again, the anime sticks with its whimsical night aesthetic, making Nazuna’s character feel so beautiful and extraordinary.

A lot of vampire stories have come and gone, but this anime suddenly feels like a breath of fresh midnight air with its empathic dialogues and lo-fi/hip-hop-like music which I personally enjoyed. There is a kind of peace you can only find in the quiet of a sleeping city, something which Call of the Night episode 1 perfectly captures. ![]()
