BLACK BLOOD BROTHERS
In a modern world where vampires have a sizable an openly-known presence, warfare occasionally erupts between the Black Bloods (vampires) and Red Bloods (humans). In the middle of this conflict is Jirou, aka Silver Blade, a powerful Old Blood who suffers deeply from a lost loved one, who discovers that another former female friend now stands against him. Years later, while traveling back to Japan with his young brother Kotaro, the ship that the two of them are stowing away on becomes a battlefield between vampire refugees seeking a protected place called the Special Zone and a private army of troops seeking to eliminate them. Again caught in the middle, he is looked at as a potential ally by one side and enemy by another, though his actual concern is only Kotaro.

Early in the morning Mimiko Katsuragi receives an urgent call to action. But what kind, and who she works for, remains to be seen. . .
