Synopsis

When a floating city becomes the target of a rash of vampire attacks, only one man can restore the oasis.

"The City," a tiny metropolis of a few hundred sheltered citizens floating serenely on a seemingly random course a few feet above the ground, has long been thought safe from the predation of marauding monsters. It seemed like a paradise.

A paradise shattered when an invasion of apparent vampires threatens the small haven. While the Vampire Hunter known only as "D" struggles to exterminate the scourge, a former denizen of the city, the attractive Raleigh Knight, and the brash John M. Brassalli Pluto VIII seize control of the city lurching it onto a new and deadly course. D's travails are just beginning.

Although D is still gorgeous and amazing, I couldn't really catch the story of this one. It's a dream within a dream that's clear, but how and why and what were the motivations of certain characters here...? Everyone was made up by the sleeping girl and they had realised they're only exist in her dre......more
