Shingetsutan Tsukihime

Tohno Shiki was sent away from his family home when he was small. His parents are dead, his memories of them are dim and his older sister, Akiha, is a virtual stranger, yet she’s sent for him to return to the family mansion. Unsure what to expect, Tohno finds a sterile, cold and mostly vacant house upon arrival. To make matters worse, Akiha’s sister is formal and strict. It’s hard to see why she bothered to send for him in the first place. Just as you are sure this story is about familial conflicts and reconciliation, a secret about Shiki is revealed, as he is seized with a sudden irresistible compulsion to kill a pretty female stranger. In a whirl of blood and haze he slices her into shreds. Then, as if from a dream, Tohno awakens in his bed, unsure of what he’s just seen. Perhaps it was some strange hallucination? But then the stranger returns, demanding why he killed her.
