Zero and Yuki : What was their love like?
Yuki and Zero are childhood friends so they have bonded over the years. Also since Zero has quite a shy and touch-me-not personality, it prevents him from making friends. So Yuki is the only one close to him.
They seem to be more comfortable and relax when they are together. Even as a child, Yuki was able to soothe Zero when he had nightmares.
The most significant moment is when Zero drinks Yuki’s blood. He confesses that he wants to drink only her blood and she is his true love. This is especially big because vampires can only satisfy their thirst by drinking blood from their true love.
There is also a huge fanbase shipping Zero and Yuki. They were voted as the Most popular couple in the January 2008 issue of LaLa magazine.
