Though much of the action takes place at a "school for monsters," most of the time the various creatures of the academy don't "cross over" in any important way, except for the principals of the series-- the mortal Tsukune Aono (who morphs into a monster halfway through the storyline), his true love the vampire Moka, the succubus Kurumu, the snow maiden Mizore, and a witch, Yukari. There are also assorted recurring "guest stars," such as Moka's vampire-sister Koko and another witch named Ruby-- but these five are the core personalities of the series.
There were also two seasons of an anime adaptation, reviewed here, but it's comparatively superficial, and plays up the sex angle so much that I observed that "the series is filled with so many gratuitous panty-shots that it manages the signal feat of making them all rather boring."
