Synopsis

Everything has been going according to plan, but the hour of awakening draws near. Cid Kageno and Shadow Garden investigate the Lawless City, a cesspool where the red moon hangs low in the sky and three powerful monarchs rule the streets. The true draw for Cid, however, is one who can draw blood–the Blood Queen, a vampire who has slumbered in her coffin for eons. Her awakening approaches, and Cid could finally face a day of reckoning.


The first episode of The Eminence in Shadow season 2 will debut as a special screening at Anime Expo, on July 1 (subtitled) and July 4 (with English dub), making up part of HIDIVE's biggest ever fan experiences. More details here. Check out the trailer here (US only).
