A new teaser visual and PV trailer have been unveiled for the upcoming BL anime series Babanbabanban Vampire, which will premiere in Japan in January 2025.
The visual features the main character Ranmaru Mori in a bathhouse and is reminiscent of the original manga’s first volume cover.

Some of the main production staff members were also revealed, which include Itsuro Kawasaki (FLAGLIA, Magical Girl Ore) as director and scriptwriter, Takahiro Tamano (episode director for We Never Learn: BOKUBEN, BNA: Brand New Animal) as assistant director, Yukiko Ban (A Girl & Her Guard Dog, Shining Tears X Wind) as character design, and Julydex’s Jun Ichikawa (Engaged to the Unidentified) as music composer. Gaina is in charge of the animation production.
The Babanbabanban manga series has been serialized in Akita Shoten’s Bessatsu Shonen Champion since October 12, 2021. Seven tankobon volumes have been released as of March 2024. The manga is also inspiring a 2025 live-action film adaptation.
The series is a Boys’ Love story about Ranmaru Mori, a 450-year old vampire who desires the blood of 18-year-old male virgins. His latest target is young Rihito Tatsuno — a teenager from the family who owns the bathhouse he works at.
