Synopsis

Vampires... Highly intelligent, hauntingly beautiful beings capable of living until the end of time. Residing in the shadows, their love of music and song has given rise to many styles over the centuries. Many people have become fanatical about their creations without any idea most of the artists they love are not human. The heavy-makeup, heavy metal style known as “Visual Kei” was one such creation.

...Present day. Vampires descend on Tokyo’s Harajuku district for the “Visual Prison” Fest held once a year beneath the “Crimson Moon”.

With their abilities heightened by the Crimson Moon, the vampires erect a barrier called a “prison”, construct a stage within, and enchant audiences with sensational performances. The “most beautiful song” is dedicated to the Crimson Moon on that October day every year, granting the artist immense power.

The vampires gather in Harajuku: some to make their dreams a reality, others to bring their music to life, and still others for the sake of the one they love. Their motives may differ, but they all take the stage to serenade a miracle into a melody...
