KainxRuka? D:
Huh? D: Ruka wanted Kaname...
She did, but now that Kaname is with Yuuki, she seems to have her head back on her shoulders and sees that Kaname has never and never will reciprocate her feelings. And, there's no denying that KainxRuka is a very possible relationship in the series, one that I will fully support xD

Btw, why does Sara (and Shizuka) have another lastname although she is a pureblood? Maybe it's a stupid question, but still, if anybody cares to explain?
There isn't only one Pureblood family^^
There are more, that's why they have different last names^^
I know there are several families yet.. Aren't purebloods meant to have intersibling marriages, 'cause even though Shiki has a pureblood father, he is considered only a noble. It just got me thinking why not all purebloods are Kurans, if the first vampire ever was a Kuran and then they had sibling marriages. Were more vampires created afterwards, without the first ancestor to bite them, but by own (some weird) means like it happened for the first one? Maybe we'll find out later.
I'm gonna have to pull out my manga for this because I don't remember which chapter they explained the ancestry in (however briefly), but I don't have my manga with me right now ^^;;
I guess, eventually, they'd have to come up with different family names? I mean, if everyone had the family name of Kuran, then it would defeat the purpose of a family name, wouldn't it? xD But, yeah, I don't remember if the Kurans are the true ancestors of all vampires or if they were just the chosen royalty. Or both oO;;
In any case, pureblood siblings don't always marry each other. I assume that they have some choice in the matter, if they can. For example, Ridou was the eldest of the Kuran children, if I remember right, but Juuri seemed to have went with Haruka instead, while Ridou was engaged to Shizuka (I have a feeling neither of them were happy about it, though). Moreover, no one mentioned anyone else from the Hiou clan, so perhaps Ridou would have married into that clan rather than Shizuka marrying into the Kuran clan (as in, Ridou would take the Hiou name to preserve it)? This is purely speculative, however ^^;;

I'm not sure what you mean but I do agree with you that Yuki needs to change. Yuki has always been completely useless. Even from the very start when she got into a confrontation with Aido trying to protect a couple of students. Instead of whacking him with her electrostaff or at least kicking him she just gives up without a fight and lets him bite her until Zero shows up and saves her. Even with Zero she rarely ever made even a snarky comment when he acted like a complete jerk to her. Her helplessness even reached an absurd level when she couldn't even ask Kaname a question much less get him to answer without Zero's help.
At least now that she's acknowledged how pathetic she acts maybe she can change something. That's what I was hoping becoming a vampire and no longer being kept in the dark would do to her when she got a gigantic scythe and weird vampire superpowers. But it appears she is surpressing her inner vampire so she's still just as wimpy as before.
I know what you mean. Yuuki has never been my favourite character, but even so, I liked her personality better before, even if it still made her useless. Before, she showed a wide range of emotions - happiness, anger, sadness, etc. - but now, she just has these big, sad eyes all the time and it aggravates me to no end. I said this before in another discussion, but I'll say it again: I think Hino-sensei is trying to give Yuuki an aura of vampiric beauty, but as a result, she's looking like a long-haired, bigger-eyed version of Kaname.
Even before Yuuki's change to a Pureblood, at least she tried to do things for herself, such as supporting Zero as a vampire, defending Zero from Yagari, trying to confront her past, etc. Ever since the end of the Ridou arc, however, Yuuki hasn't really done much of anything except mope around and be treated like a princess (which she technically is, but even so, she can't even do her own toenails..?!)
