Description: Black Blood Brothers
Black Blood Brothers takes place in a world where people are divided into the "Red Bloods" (Humans), "Black Bloods" (Vampires), and "Old Bloods" (Ancient Vampires). The series takes place ten years after a Holy War raged in Hong Kong. Mochitsuki Jurou, also known as the Silver Blade, was a lone and legendary war hero who defeated the sinister Kowloon Children during the Holy War, but victory came at the cost of the life of his lover.
Deciding to return home to Japan to his brother, Mochitsuki Kotaro, the brothers (who are both Old Bloods and descendants of an elite group of vampires) soon learn the Kowloon Children weren't out for the count just yet. The surviving Kowloon members are seeking a portal to a "Special Zone", which is a secret civilization where the Kowloon Children are not allowed to reach. But the Kowloon make the battle a personal one when they kidnap Kotaro, causing Jurou to fight them once again.
