* DownerEnding: ''Damn''. [[spoiler:Of the three young main characters, only Osamu is alive; although he finally cuts ties with Miwako for good (after realizing the cruelest thing he can do to an immortal creature is to abandon them, as being immortal himself he can do the one thing no one else can and deny her companionship that would never go away), the fact that he is has been missing for years and is now basically a Frankenstein-type monster means he has no normal life to return to. Miwako faces no real consequences for her actions (besides being reminded that ultimately she will forever be alone in the world for all eternity), leaving her free to find another familiar. Meanwhile, the city has become deserted after the bloody school massacre Chika caused.]]

Osamu Hirota is an ordinary Japanese high schooler who thinks that his life so far is just a little bit boring. This changes when his friend, Souichi Tachibana, invites him to a mansion where he promises that Miwako, the beautiful yet mysterious occupant, will have sex with him. What Souichi doesn't tell him is that Miwako is an immortal vampire who feeds on the blood of young men that Souichi, under her thrall, brings to the house in the hopes of becoming her subservient "familiar".

Fortunately for Osamu, Miwako changes her mind about killing him. ''Un''fortunately for Osamu, Miwako decides to instead make ''him'' her familiar -- [[FateWorseThanDeath a being cursed with the form of a monster and the need to hunt for blood to sustain a human form]], tasked with collecting human hearts for Miwako to subsist on. Things go downhill for Osamu from here. [[FromBadToWorse Far, FAR downhill]].
