NY Anime Fest to Debut Vampire Hunter D Short Story

The New York Anime Fest, scheduled for September 26-28, has announced that its weekend program book will include the world premier of the Vampire Hunter D short story “Vampire Hunter D: The Wanderer’s Ship,” written by franchise creator Hideyuki Kikuchi.

The story is one of three existing Vampire Hunter D short stories written by Kikuchi and awarded to random prize drawing winners that attend Kikuchi’s regular “Talk Live” public discussion group gatherings held in Tokyo. The owner of the “Wanderer’s Ship” story, Ms. Hitomi Yasue, consented to the English language premier publication because of her desire to encourage increased international awareness of the literary origin of the Vampire Hunter D franchise.
