Description: Tsukihime, Lunar Legend
As a child, Shiki Tohno could see strange lines everywhere. These lines, which he could cut, would destroy whatever they intersected. Thankfully, a woman gave him glasses which would prevent him from seeing the lines, thus enabling him to lead a relatively normal life.
Years later, after his father dies, Shiki comes home to live with his sister, Akiha. Soon enough he ends up meeting a woman named Arcueid Brunestud, who turns out to be the immortal princess of a clan of vampires....
Tsukihime, like Fate/Stay Night, is based on a game by Type-Moon (it's actually a game of the... erotic variety, but the series itself is supposed to be clean).
