In the Itogamijima special zone for demons, a girl named Yukina Hirameki (Risa Taneda) is entrusted with watching over the vampire and if needed, hunting him down.
The anime adaptation of Gakuto Mikumo's Strike the Blood light novel series premiered in October, and Crunchyroll has been streaming the series outside of Japan as it airs.
