As a Zero x Yuuki pairing fan (actually, I think I'm just rooting for Zero and could care less about Yuuki and hope Kaname bites the dust), I loved the chapter, but at the same time, became pretty demoralized by it. For some reason, this chapter gave me the impression Zero is going to have a unrequited love towards Yuuki. I can't say exactly why, but I am questioning the use of a full chapter focusing on Zero's feelings. It's like the mangaka is using this time to dive into Zero's mind because there won't be an opportunity to do so later on? I don't know.
I was a little disappointed at the lack of plot movement, since this chapter solely focused on Zero and his thoughts about the realization of himself becoming a vampire and what exactly Yuuki means to him. There really isn't too much to comment on in this chapter. I will say that all of Zero's actions have made sense, on how he wanted to stay away from Yuuki, but at the same time, because of her warmth and caring nature, wanted to stay near her as well.
Hmm...I wonder if Zero's feeling towards seeing Kaname pet Yuuki's head (in the flashback) was really a sign that he knew deep down, he was a vampire of sorts, or if he felt a pang of jealousy because he realized that it wasn't him in her heart.
I'm curious as to what will happen next. Will we get a fight? Or will somebody interrupt their showdown and hence, we'll get a stoppage to all of this drama. I personally hope for Zero to pull the trigger, as that's perhaps the most interesting - foreseeable - outcome in my eyes and see what occurs afterwards.
