The Netflix streaming service will be releasing the first season of an anime series called Vampire in the Garden on May 16th, and with that release date a month and a half away a trailer has been released online to give a glimpse of the blood-splattered action this show has in store for us. You can check it out in the embed above.

Vampire in the Garden is coming from WIT Studios, the studio behind animes like Vinland Saga, Attack on Titan, Owari no SeraphThe Great Pretender, and Ranking of Kings. According to Polygon, the show will take place

long after vampires have taken over the human world. The small population of human survivors live inside a town shielded by a wall of light that protects them from the vampires. However, one girl named Momo dreams of living in peace with the vampires. On the other side of the war is the vampire queen, Fine, who once loved humans. A chance encounter with Momo could help reignite that love and save the world.

Here’s an alternative synopsis, from Whats-On-Netflix:

Once, humans and vampires co-existed peacefully, but tensions between the two species fractured their relationship. Hope for peace between the two now rests in the hands of an ambitious violin player, and the vampire queen.

Yuu Kobayashi provides the voice of vampire Queen Fiine, while Megumi Han provides the voice of young violinist Momo.

Vampire in the Garden is directed by Ryoutarou Makihara and produced by Tetsuya Nakatake. 

I’m not an anime watcher, so I don’t have any familiarity with the previous shows WIT Studios has made, but Vampire in the Garden looks fun and action-packed to me. How does this show look to you? Will you be watching it when it reaches Netflix? Let us know by leaving a comment below.
