There are many kinds of vampire from the demon-gods of the Abyss to the
beautiful hunters sworn to fight them until the end of time. Their
battles rage across a strange world - the world of the Vampire Princess,
where reality exists only as a fractured jigsaw above the scarlet wastes
of another universe, and where creatures born from fear an loss can reach
out into the world to feed on the weakness of the human heart..... Chapter 1: Capital Of Mystery Something is preying on the women of Kyoto - something that attacks in the blink of an eye and leaves only drained corpses in its wake. Young medium Himiko is drawn into the eternal war between the child-like vampire Miyu and the denizens of the Abyss, and learns that nothing, not even reality itself, can be trusted. Chapter2: Puppet Festival Himiko once again finds herself surrounded by a labyrinth of loss and deception, as Miyu battles the demon-god Ranka, a vampire whose kiss turns humans into lifeless marionettes. Their prize is Kai, a boy who hungers only for eternal beauty. But can beauty last forever? And what must Kai sacrifice to find out? Vampire Princess Miyu is a tragic and haunting tale of elegant horror from the director of Dangaioh, Toshiro Hirano. Look out for Chapters 3 & 4 coming soon from Manga Video.
