For centuries, the kin of Count Dracula secretly ruled the world and concealed their existence, diverting human interest toward folklore and fantasy. But nothing lasts forever, and the distant descendant of the Count, Princess Mina Tsepsh—a young ruler of all vampires—decided to open herself up to the world and settle among humans. To do so she simply had to pay off the national debt of an Asian country and quietly, without naming the client, build a huge artificial island in Tokyo Bay that would soon be called the Vampire Coast. The acknowledgment of vampires" existence and the news of their enclave in Japan produced a worldwide shockwave. Many people and non‑humans, to put it mildly, were not pleased with such a statement, and an even larger number decided to cast a line for a fish in murky water. Assassination attempts on Mina Tsepsh came from all sides, but killing an immortal ruler is not easy, especially when she is protected by loyal people. Among them is Akira Koburagi Regendorf—a young werewolf and the princess"s personal bodyguard, who has sworn loyalty to her since childhood. But what can arise from the vampire Hong Kong—a new‑age Babylon, a place of mixing races and cultures? The answer will be given by the creation of studio SHAFT!
