Dance in the Vampire Bund: Age of Scarlet Order Series

BATTLEFIELD BUND

The vampire god has broken free of his melodic trance, triggering an island-wide battle that thrusts the Vampire Bund into its most perilous crisis yet—and Mina Tepes has still not returned! Amidst the chaos, Kajikawa and Akira engage in a fierce struggle against the malevolent vampire deity, a corrosive poison threatens the flooded Cradle, and a determined venture capitalist pursues his own agenda of launching a rocket from the Bund. Worse still, should the refugees trying to escape the Cradle make it to the surface, they risk becoming unwitting pawns in the vampire god’s sinister plans. With unexpected alliances and sacrifices at every turn, will the Bund succumb to the vampire god’s control?

CAPTIVE AUDIENCE

The First Vampire is back! And not only is this vampire god trying to recruit more followers to his cause in the Bund, he’s also hanging out with singer RULi and her friends, who are completely unaware of the very real danger he poses. As the frantic search for the First Vampire and RULi begins, another crisis is unfolding—word arrives that poison has started to infiltrate the rapidly flooding Cradle, putting all 300,000 vampires trapped inside in mortal danger.

CLASH OF THE TITANS

In order to stop the Dowager Empress’s plot to destroy the Bund, Princess Minmei has transformed into her avatar form to confront her mother in direct battle. As the two dragons duel it out for supremacy in the skies, Mina and Akira confront the Dowager from within and bring to light the final piece of the long history of the manipulative Clan Li. Meanwhile, a new disaster is looming–300,000 vampires are trapped within the Bund’s Cradle, and it’s starting to flood!

BELLY OF THE BEAST

The Dowager Empress, thought dead, is not only still alive, but has transformed into her avatar form—that of an enormous flying dragon—and has set her sights on destroying the Vampire Bund once and for all. Worse still, Mina, Minmei, and Li have been swallowed whole and are now trapped inside Dowager’s monstrous body, where nightmares (and shocking revelations) await our heroes around every corner!

COUP D’ÉTAT

House Tepes has put “Project Tobiume” into motion with Mina and Liu enacting critical roles. As a result, the Empress Dowager is dead and Li has been taken hostage—leaving Princess Minmei as the leader of Clan Li. However, this conflict is far from over as, one after another, the palace servants start to rebel against their new master! Could someone be manipulating Clan Li from the shadows? Find out as Age of Scarlet Order dives into the darkness at the heart of Clan Li!

WATCHING THE WORLD BURN

The United States boasts the greatest navy in the world, and now its fleet is on the move in the Sea of Japan. However, Mina Tepes’ doppelganger Katie Maurice positions herself to block them with the will-bending “Pied Piper” virus, and her actions spark a full scale conflict between China and the U.S.A.! Meanwhile, Mina and her compatriots work a cloak-and-dagger mission in the hopes of preventing events from spiraling further into World War III. Could the person who holds the key to stopping the war be Yuki…?

WAR GAMES

Mina Tepes and the young werewolves have managed to escape Clan Li’s hellish prison, but Princess Minmei has been captured by Li’s agents. With Clan Li continuing to escalate global tensions, Mina is left with no choice but to push forward with House Tepes’ “Tobiume Project,” provoking the United States to send warships on “training maneuvers” to the Sea of Japan! Battlelines are drawn as Earth teeters on the brink of a vampire world war!

RESCUE MISSION

Yuuhi and the rest of the Beowolf trainees have successfully infiltrated a military-controlled prison compound in Inner Mongolia on a mission to free Queen Mina and her bodyguard Akira. But when our young rescuers discover Akira’s childhood friend Yuki and Mina’s doppelganger Katie Morris are also being held captive along with scores of human prisoners, their simple rescue mission becomes a whole lot bigger than they ever imagined. And with 30,000 vampires and two terrifying were-beasts standing between our heroes and freedom, it’s a mission that could go pear-shaped any moment.

A LIFE ALTERED

Disillusioned after discovering the truth about female werewolves and hearing all the lies that came from Tatianna’s lips, Phoebe’s faith in Yuuhi and the others is on shaky ground. Yet, despite the pain the knowledge has brought, a part of Phoebe still wants to believe in his packmates. Though trust, once lost, can be difficult to regain.

WHITEOUT

Yuuhi, Phoebe, Cal, and Aaron have been stranded in the Siberian tundra as part of their Ritual Ordeal, where they must survive for a month in order to come into their own as werewolves. But their ordeal has taken a life-and-death turn as they are relentlessly pursued by Gargantuas—vicious werewolf slaves bred for war. And just when things couldn’t be dire enough, a nasty blizzard hits, separating Phoebe from the rest of the pack!

CALL OF THE WILD

Yuuhi, Phoebe, Cal, and Aaron are in for the trial of their lives as they find themselves naked and afraid in one of the most inhospitable places on earth—the Siberian Tundra! Should these young werewolves live through the ordeal, they will be men. However, just finding food, clothing, and shelter to survive for the month becomes all the more difficult when one of their group’s deepest secrets is laid bare. This revelation could put all of their lives in jeopardy, and lead to a second event like the  “Siberian Tragedy” that befell Akira and Angie years before.

THERE WILL BE BLOOD! Yuuhi and Phoebe make their way to Japan, where they meet up with Yuuhi’s classmates and fellow Beowolf trainees Cal and Aaron. Phoebe and Cal hit it off right away, but soon discover Phoebe has another, darker connection to Cal and Aaron’s past. Meanwhile, the vampire crisis in Shanghai has ratcheted up the tension between Mina and Katie. And a bombshell is dropped when Mina, aiming to prevent an all-out war, tells them about the one person that could diffuse the whole situation!

A GAME OF SHADOWS Mina and Akira have returned to the hidden Cradle deep in the Amazon where they have not only run into Mina’s once-evil doppelganger Katie Morris, but also receive a shocking revelation from the mothers of the Tepes clan. They’re given little time to absorb this new information, though, before world events take a drastic turn and Mina, Akira, and even Katie Morris find themselves wrapped up in a globe-spanning “game” that none of them could have predicted!

An all-new sequel manga to the bestselling Dance in the Vampire Bund series! Vampire hunts rage across the United States like the witch hunts of old. But in the shadows, rumors whisper of a grand escape plan. “Mina Tepes summons all the vampires of America,” it says. “Reach the West Coast, and a ship will take you all to the Vampire Bund.” Desperate to survive, hordes of vampires follow that rumor and make for the West Coast. There’s only one small problem—the Vampire Bund sunk months ago, and Vampire Queen Mina Tepes is dead.
