Comparison and Contrast text: Yukki and Zero



These two are the protagonists of the manga (Japanese comics) “Vampire Knight”. Yuuki is the typical female Japanese hero, sweet, hopeful, dreamer and friendly with everybody. By the other hand is Zero, her “brother” (if you believe that they are adopted by the principal of the school), he is the typical male Japanese hero, rude, irreverent and coldest with everybody, except Yuuki. He is a Vampire, but he hates vampires, with all his heart. And Yuuki is just a little girl who loves vampires and wishes to be one of them.

But, at the same time, these two characters are very similar. They care for each other, watch for the happiness of the other, and, the most important thing, they love each other in secret. Yuuki doesn’t confess her love because it will be too much embarrassing, a girl couldn’t do that. Zero doesn’t accept his love because he can’t forgive her sympathy to the vampires. They also fight each other for stupid things, like no eating at time, not going to bed at time, sleep in class, but never hurt each other, they only scream out loud.

She is a short hair brunette, he has short white hair. He is taller than her, and also more agile. She falls constantly, but sometime Zero is there to keep her save. They are a very cute representation of young love, so, if you want to know more about them, read the manga.
