The story revolves around Mina Tepeş, princess-ruler of all vampires, and her "protector," Akira. Like other vampires, Mina has been in hiding with her people for many years. Seeking to end centuries of isolation, Mina gains permission to create a special district for vampires, "The Bund", off the coast of Japan by paying off the national debt of the Japanese government. Mina then reveals to the world the existence of vampires and her desire for both races to live together. Tensions, however, run high as fearful humans and extremist vampire factions begin to interfere with Mina's wish for peace with the human world.
My Thoughts:
This show actually came out earlier this year but I did not really want to watch it because I thought this was going to be your typical boring vampire stuff and of course having a picture of a kid as the queen of the vampires did not help either. I thought this was going to be a show for kiddoes. I was not expecting this to be good but I was definitely surprised. I loved the story. Yes yes yes another vampire/werewolves story but I think the writers did a splendid job of "humanizing" them. The transformations of the vampires though were not typical I think they made it more exciting. It also does not hurt when the animation is good. I definitely recommend this one.
