Aoike Yasuko's Vampires

Aoike Yasuko's vampires

This is Aoike Yasuko's Kyuuketsuki (吸血鬼, Vampire) from 1969. It was first published in Weekly Shoujo Friend. Funny thing is, although the published volume and this great shoujo magazine archive says that it was published in 1969, Aoike-sensei's own site lists this short story as a 1967 publication. I don't know who to trust anymore...

I love vampires, so I knew I had to get this one when I saw this tweet by Sone Masako-sensei. The digital edition has little bits of info on the works by Aoike-sensei, and according to that, Roman Polanski's 1967 movie, The Fearless Vampire Killers, inspired her to draw a vampire story. I like little manga facts like this.
