HOUSTON— Follow the red string of fate, if you dare, to Sentai Filmworks’ newest acquisition: Diabolik Lovers. This sexy and provocative 12 episode series about the fate of a young woman in the hands of a brood of vampires is directed by Shinobu Tagashira and features character designs by Yuuko Yahiro and music by Yuuki Hayashi.

Yui Komori used to see dead people. But as troubling as past glimpses of spirits, poltergeists and psychic phenomena may have been, they pale into insignificance compared to what she’s about to discover once she’s forced to transfer to a new school. Because it turns out that her own history is very different from what she thought it was, and she has a very different kind of family waiting for her. Now she’ll be sharing her living space with six very attractive young men, though not a single one is human. And while her new dorm mates may be brothers, and their attraction to her involves her bloodline, “brotherly” is the last word to describe their intentions. In moving from her father’s church to becoming the object of six blood lusting young vampires’ affections, Yui will undergo the most shocking, soul ripping and draining experience any teenage girl could imagine in her wildest fantasies… or most salacious nightmares. From walking to school with the dead, to becoming the Sakimaki brothers’ preferred dinner companion, she is about to learn what it is to become one of the DIABOLIK LOVERS!

Diabolik Lovers will be available soon through select digital outlets with a home video release to follow in 2014.
