Irina: The Vampire Cosmonaut Anime Releases a Sweet Yet Worrisome PV

While showing vampires in a new light, Irina: The Vampire Cosmonaut anime brings you a heart-warming and ambitious tale of Irina Ruminescu and Lev Leps.

The series is a space-themed anime featuring two budding astronauts and their endearing love story. The show also focuses on the controversial vampire-human-fall-in-love trope without making us cringe out of our skins.

After its latest episode, where things went relatively smoothly, the anime is back on teasing us with a new arc from the next episode.

Irina: The Vampire Cosmonaut anime unveiled an adorable and concerning PV to announce the start of its upcoming arc.

Episode 7 was all about Irina’s anticipated test launch, a massive success for the Zirnitra Union. Even though the space capsule goes a bit off course, Lev and the others could retrieve Irina and bring her back to safety.

The new PV gives a short preview of the events that followed the test launch. Now that the Union will be sending the selected human cosmonauts to space, things will get difficult for Irina as her life is now in danger.

Irina is now at constant risk of getting killed in hate crimes against vampires, and everyone who cares for her is giving it their all to protect the vampire astronaut.

The new arc also shows Lev back in cosmonaut training and his budding romance with Irina.

The anime also portrays vampires in a new light, showing them similar to humans instead of the monsters they’re painted as.

For instance, the vampires in this show do not need blood to survive and consider drinking human blood a taboo.

I appreciate how realistically they’re showing these fictional creatures. It almost makes me believe that vampires can exist in the real world or that they already do *suspicious among us music*.
