Koyomi Araragi’s hope of becoming human again depends on restoring a vampire he may have no way to stop. Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade is certain she can reverse his transformation once her full power returns. With that moment approaching, however, Araragi is no longer sure he wants to finish the task.
After helping revive Kiss-shot, Araragi became a vampire and her servant. He has since defeated the three vampire hunters who overcame her and recovered her missing limbs. Yet his success raises a troubling question: how could those hunters defeat Kiss-shot if a newly transformed vampire could best them?
Exhausted and unsure how Kiss-shot could restore his humanity, Araragi must decide whether to trust her. Returning her strength could leave an unstoppable immortal free to act, while finding another resolution may demand a choice he will regret.
