Following Ayane Sakura as the human protagonist Mitsugu Bamba, the official YouTube channel for the internationally acclaimed director Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in The Shell)'s highly-anticipated new anime project VLADLOVE has announced that Rina Hidaka (Last Order in A Certain Magical Index) will be playing the maim vampire girl Mai Vlad Transylvania. You can check her voice as the character in an English-subtitled 20-second sample voice video below.
The character introduction on the anime's official website:
A beautiful vampire girl lost in an unfamiliar land. Mai is descended from the Transylvania clan, a prestigious vampire family. She is shy and faint-hearted, and can’t bite and suck people's blood even though she is a vampire. She was hungry and had no one to turn to, but met Mitsugu, who decided to help her and take her home.
