Vampire Hunter D Vol. 8: Mysterious Journey to the North Sea - Part Two
Hideyuki Kikuchi (Author), Yoshitaka Amano (Illustrator)

The picturesque coastal town of Florence was known for millennia as a pleasure resort for the Nobility. As retribution for their decadence, the cruel and beautiful inhabitants were "punished," driven out more than a thousand years ago by a solitary traveler in black. Only one-Baron Meinster-refused to leave, only to be thrown to the waves by the mysterious assassin. Summoned to contemporary Florence by Su-In, sister of a murdered village girl, the enigmatic Vampire Hunter D discovers a vampire curse ravaging the town's inhabitants. The plague apparently originating, impossibly, from the unforgiving sea-could it be Meinster's Revenge?
