The 23rd issue of Shounen Champion of 2020 announced a television anime adaptation of Itaru Bonnoki's Kyuuketsuki Sugu Shinu (The Vampire dies in no time.) manga on Thursday.
Vampires are said to have many weaknesses such as garlic, crosses, and sunlight. Game-loving vampire lord Draluc just so happens to be weak to... everything. He dies, turning into a pile of ash, at the slightest shock.
After Vampire Hunter Ronaldo learned of a castle inhabited by a vampire rumored to have kidnapped a kid, he went there intending to take the devil down. However, the vampire turned out to be Draluc, a wimp who keeps turning into ash at the smallest things. Moreover, the kid wasn't being held captive—he was just using the "haunted house" as his personal playground!
When his castle is destroyed, Draluc moves into Ronaldo's office, much to the other's chagrin. Despite their differences, they must try to work together to defend themselves from rogue vampires, Ronaldo's murderous editor, investigators, and more—with Draluc dying continuously along the way.

Bonnoki began serializing the supernatural comedy manga, also known by its short name KyuuShi, in Shounen Champion in June 2015. Akita Shoten published the 14th volume on December 6 last year, with the 15th volume scheduled for Friday.
