Strike the Blood

In a world where supernatural beings quietly coexist with humanity, a precarious balance is maintained by the existence of powerful, ancient entities. When the Fourth Primogenitor, a legendary and devastating vampire, inexplicably appears in Japan, the stakes for global stability skyrocket. This progenitor, however, is no ancient evil — he’s an ordinary high school student named Kojou Akatsuki, utterly bewildered by his newfound, immense power. Tasked with observing and, if necessary, eliminating this potential threat is Yukina Himeragi, a young sword shaman. What begins as a mission of surveillance quickly evolves into an unexpected partnership as Kojou grapples with the responsibilities of his terrifying abilities, and Yukina finds herself drawn into the chaotic, yet surprisingly endearing, life of the world’s strongest vampire. Their intertwined fates will determine the future of both human and supernatural realms.
