"True Love Like Blood" fictionalizes a real society in which vampires and humans coexist on an equal footing after humans invented human blood substitute drinks, although the plot is full of fantasy elements such as superpowers, vampires, shapeshifters, wizards, etc., and the style is more and more dreamy and confusing, but all of this can be seen as a metaphor for human history and society, as well as the analysis and reflection of human nature, the pattern is actually quite grand.
