Moon Phase Characters
The following is a list of characters from the Japanese anime and manga series '' Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase'', written by Keitarō Arima. Some of the characters listed here are exclusive to the anime or manga while others appear in both. Main characters ; / :A 14-year-old selfish but adorable vampire, Hazuki was separated from her mother and restrained in a castle in Germany. She escapes the castle with Kouhei's help and flees to Japan in search of her mother. Much of the conflict between her and Kouhei stems from her giving him a vampire's "kiss", the act of drawing blood from a mortal, which normally turns the mortal into the feeding vampire's unwilling servant, but Hazuki's attempt on Kouhei fails.
