Dance in the Vampire Bund

The story revolves around Mina Țepeș, Princess-Ruler of all vampires, and her werewolf protector Akira Kaburagi Regendorf.

Seeking to end centuries of isolation, Mina gains permission to create a special district for vampires called "The Bund"[4] off the coast of Tokyo, Japan by paying off the entire national debt of the Japanese government with her family's vast wealth.
