No Harmony, Only Bloodshed.

Based on a series of light novels of the same name by Sunao Yoshida, director Tomohiro Hirata (Peacemaker, Haikyuu!!) brings us a blood fest as humans and vampires have been at war for centuries, and now there is a Cold War, an uneasy peace as they try to coexist, but if you throw in some nanotech super-vampires from Mars, anything could happen. This really goes back to the brutal days of Cain and Abel.

Father Abel Nightroad (Russell Wait, Tokyo Godfathers, Ultraviolet) is onboard a massive airship Tristan, heading to Europe, when a radical vampire Count Alfred Meinz hijacks the airship. He uses an ancient master code to turn the airship and directs it straight at the Vatican, to destroy the enemy of the radical vampires Fleurs de Mal. With the pilot and co-pilot dead, it is up to the stewardess, Jessica Lang, to keep the ship in the air.

At the receiving end, Cardinal Francesco di Medici orders an ancient tech missile to be fired at the Tristan. With destruction approaching fast, Father Abel must confront Meinz. This is where we find out the true nature of this meek and poverty-stricken man of the cloth, he is a Crusnik, a vampire that feeds on the blood of other vampires. He is from Mars and is full of nanobots, enabling him to transform into a super-vampire.

With Meinz dispatched, all they have to worry about now is the fast approaching missile, but luckily, Father Tres Iqus arrives in a Vatican airship and shoots down the missile.

After that Abel is tasked with various missions, trying to keep vampires and humans in line, sometimes he is in the line of fire from his fellow Vatican member Tres Iqus, the gun-totting cyborg.

Father Abel gets in to many scrapes with these rogue vampires, and greedy humans, in this religious blood fest, until he finds out that his brother is alive, then it gets personal.
