The official website for the anime adaptation of Fuyumi Ono and Ryū Fujisaki's Shiki horror mystery manga has begun streaming a 32-second web preview video. The story revolves around an isolated mountain village, steeped in ancient traditions, whose population of 1,300 starts dying in droves due to mysterious causes. Eventually, it becomes clear that vampires are attacking the town. Ono had previously written the original novels for The Twelve Kingdoms and Ghost Hunt, while Fujisaki is best known for drawing the Hoshin Engi/Soul Hunter manga.
The anime will premiere in Japan on July 8.
