Synopsis:

In a world ravaged by a mysterious virus affecting those over thirteen, humanity exists under the oppressive rule of vampires. These beings, who offer protection in exchange for blood, have established a stark social hierarchy where survivors are treated as resources. The narrative centers on Yuuichirou Hyakuya, a survivor of a desperate escape attempt from a vampire orphanage, and his subsequent recruitment into the Japanese Imperial Demon Army. Driven by a desire for vengeance against those who destroyed his past, Yuuichirou navigates a brutal conflict with the vampires while grappling with the complexities of loyalty and the cost of revenge. The series explores themes of survival, loss, and the blurred lines between humanity and monstrous power within a bleak, emotionally charged setting.
