Twilight Syndrome
When you think of vampires, your mind is likely to go straight to the Twilight Saga and the Twilight-obsessed teenage girls who love them. That’s because vampires are perhaps the most popular kind of supernatural being in the world of fiction. Twilight is based on a story that’s been told in countless other works of fiction though, and vampires in not always so romantic and perfect. We’ve looked before at vampires as tragic figures, and Twilight Syndrome is just such a story!
Twilight Syndrome is the name given to a condition that causes those with the affliction to be obsessed with Twilight. The afflicted will remember little from before they became obsessed with Twilight, and will often have to be put in a mental institution. Twilight Syndrome was first mentioned in the original story of Dracula, as Jonathan was obsessed with his teacher, but was cured when he met and fell in love with Mina Murray. Eventually though, Twilight Syndrome became a popular trope that was often turned into a joke. Most believe that the Twilight Saga’s popularity is why Twilight Syndrome became so popular, and thus why it is also a much-mocked trope.
Blood-Stained Fascination
A fascination with blood-stained bed sheets is hardly a new concept, or even a unique one. The fascination with blood is so old that it’s been referenced in literary works like Dante’s Divine Comedy, which includes a scene where the blood of Christ is collected and used to create the universe. The “bloodstained sheets” of vampires though is something else entirely.
In the world of vampires, human blood is often used to create blood-tainted sheets that when put on the bed of the sleeping human will allow them to fall into a blood-induced sleep. This is because while the sheets are stained with the blood of the previous human who used them, they are also blessed with a “curse” that causes whoever sleeps in them to have a horrible nightmare. This is often used as a way to capture victims, or to exact revenge on those the vampires no longer care for. While the concept is hardly new, the appearance of this fascination in Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu is interesting, as the show portrays it as a creepy, dark fetish of the rakugo master Saitoutai.
Blood Scented Flower
True Cross Academy is based on a Western comic series called Vanguard, and so most of the action takes place in a Western setting. However, the vampires of True Cross Academy are not your typical, pretty, teenage fangirl vampires. Instead, True Cross Academy features a group of vampires who are based on the legendary flower known as the “Blood Scented Red Lily.” This flower is known for its blood-stained petals and stems, and is said to cause the person who smells it to become thirsty for blood. The vampires of True Cross Academy are based on the legend of the Blood Scented Red Lily, and have the same effect on humans. They are also connected to a greater mythology of vampires, as they originate from the same species that Dracula comes from.
True Cross Academy’s vampires are a female-only species known as a “Blood Scented Bloom,” and are very rare and precious. Admittedly, True Cross Academy’s vampires don’t do too much in the series yet, but they do appear to be more powerful than your standard vampire. True Cross Academy’s vampires are also based on an old and mysterious species of vampires, which is an interesting choice.
