An 'apocalyptic' boy-meets-girl rom-com about high school boy Yutaka Kuromori and the beautiful, popular girl adored by everyone, Aru Hoshina. Yutaka might shyly deny it, insisting “we’re not dating”, but Aru is always clinging to him, and the two are seen as the talk-of-the-school couple.

But behind what looks like an ordinary boy–girl high school relationship lies a secret — one so ruinous and capricious that, if mishandled, it could bring about the end of the world.

A great, galactic epic spanning the author’s career begins here!

Six months later, there was a one-armed man fighting the vampires in abandoned Japan! The man's name is Akira Miyamoto. A warrior who had already tasted hell on Higanjima.

All of his classmates, including his best friend and his crush, have been reduced to nothing more than brains. An alien who calls herself A-sensei informs the protagonist, Satoki Tsutsuno, that to protect the earth, they must use their collective brains. With Tsutsuno being the only one left in his class, what trials await him and his classmates...?

I've always had a fascination with the occult; you might even call it my specialty. I've been brought in as a consultant on many supernatural and strange mysteries. But nothing could have prepared me for this house. It seemed so ordinary at first, except for that one room. It had no doors, no windows, and was tucked away, leaving anyone to think it was just a wall. I knew that there was something more to it. It shouldn't be there, it shouldn't exist, and yet...

Just what is this house, and what dark secrets does it hold?

This is a continuation of the story of Higanjima, featuring an isolated island surrounded by fish demons and a population of warring vampires and humans. Ryousuke, his girlfriend Kazumi, and his friend Yamaoka are shipwrecked by the fish demons and wash up on the shore of this cursed island. They soon encounter the inhuman cruelty of the vampires first hand, before Ryousuke is able to meet up with the human resistance. Ryousuke wants nothing more than to escape the island, but mainland Japan may not be safe for long. If the humans don't defeat the vampires soon, then the vampires will succeed in their plans to spread the virus to the mainland!
