Despite being just a month away, we’re still unsure about the number of episodes of Vampire in the Garden coming to Netflix in May 2022. The series was announced in 2019, and it’s been a long time waiting for the arrival of the anime. But, considering the anime is made by WIT Studio, the same studio behind Attack on Titan, it’ll be more than worth the wait.
