After
trumpets of the apocalypse proclaim the fall of humanity, vampires
arise from the shadows to rule the earth. Yuichiro wants just one thing –
to get revenge by killing each and every vampire. In the opening
volume, Yuichiro’s dream is near-impossible, given that vampires are
seven times stronger than humans, and the only way to kill them is by
mastering Cursed Gear, advanced demon-possessed weaponry. Not to mention
that humanity’s most elite Vampire Extermination Unit, the Moon Demon
Company, wants nothing to do with Yuichiro unless he can prove he’s
willing to work in a team – which is the last thing he wants!
