The supernatural action series Servamp has arrived on Crunchyroll, offering the complete 12-episode run with both English dub and subtitles. The anime adapts the manga of the same name, centering on Mahiru Shirota, a high schooler who prefers a simple life but finds himself entangled in the world of vampires when he picks up a stray cat named Kuro, who turns out to be a powerful Servamp.
Brain's Base and Platinum Vision animated the series, which premiered in Summer 2016. Servamp delves into the lives of seven vampire brothers, each serving a different deadly sin, and the humans who form contracts with them. Mahiru's cat, Kuro, is the Servamp of Sloth, and their contract forces Mahiru into a clandestine war against his will.
The series leans into its urban fantasy roots, blending supernatural combat with character-driven drama. Mahiru's desire for simplicity clashes with the chaotic reality of vampire politics and the ongoing conflict between the Servamp brothers and their ancient enemies. The ensemble cast provides a dynamic through which the series explores themes of duty, free will, and the nature of existence.
While Servamp itself is a self-contained story, it is part of a larger franchise that includes OVAs and a feature film, Servamp Movie: Alice in the Garden. The anime adaptation covers the initial arcs of the manga, establishing the core cast and the central conflict. For viewers seeking action-packed supernatural tales with a touch of dark humor, the series offers a complete and engaging narrative.
