Synopsis
After a pandemic kills adults, vampires enslave humanity; orphan Yuuichirou joins rebels to fight back.
Eight-year-old Yuuichirou Amane finds himself at the Hyakuya Orphanage after losing his parents, struggling to connect with his new surroundings. His world is shattered when a mysterious pandemic sweeps across the globe, claiming the lives of everyone over the age of thirteen. In the ensuing chaos, vampires emerge from hiding, seizing control of the devastated world and subjugating the remaining human survivors. Years later, Yuuichirou has grown up under vampire rule, harboring an intense hatred for these creatures and dreaming of a world free from their oppression. His rebellious nature often clashes with the more cautious approach of his fellow orphan Mikaela Hyakuya, who believes in using intelligence and careful planning to navigate their harsh reality. When circumstances force Yuuichirou to make a desperate bid for freedom, he finds himself on the surface world, where he encounters the Moon Demon Company—a human military organization dedicated to fighting back against the vampire menace. Offered a chance to join their ranks, Yuuichirou sees an opportunity to turn his burning desire for justice into action.
