Yashakiden: The Demon Princess, Vol. 1

Yashakiden: Book 1

Hideyuki Kikuchi

After a devastating earthquake that left most of Japan in ruins, the district ward of Shinjuku in Tokyo has opened up a doorway into another dimension--becoming the halfway-house suspended between the mortal world and the supernatural.

Setsura Aki, undercover P.I., is considered the best "man hunter" in the business. He allies himself with friend and rival, Doctor Mephisto--a wizard of physical and spiritual surgery. Together, they battle the evil forces that overrun the city.

Coming from the deepest and darkest parts of China, four immortal demons, led by the Princess of vampires, have surmounted four thousand years of space and time to seize control of Shinjuku and make it their own.

It is up to Setsura and Mephisto to uncover their new formidable foes' dark plans for the city. Can the duo stop them before they plunge the living populace into a new level of fear and slavery none can escape?

Yashakiden: Book 2

Hideyuki Kikuchi

A vicious vampire gang four thousand years in the making has awakened from its slumber in order to seize control of Demon City Shinjuku. Princess, Kikiou, Ryuuki and Shuuran are as persistent as they are merciless, especially when the target of their attacks is Setsura Aki.

A treacherous house of reptiles built of giant leeches and poisonous snakes--Ryuuki's ghost koto "Silent Night" and his malevolent demon qi--Shinjuku's heavily armed police becoming vampires and attacking its own citizens--

Demon City is transforming into Vampire City before their very eyes.

To make matter worse, despite his wizardly powers, Setsura is assaulted by Shuuran and is turning himself. His trusted friend and colleague, Doctor Mephisto, shows ominous signs of becoming a slave to their wills. Setsura has never before experienced such dangers in his life!

Yashakiden: Book 3

Hideyuki Kikuchi

The immortal vampire gang led by "Princess"--Kikiou, Ryuuki and Shuuran--is slowly but inexorably taking over Demon City Shinjuku. Its citizens and the administration alike are turning into vampires. Mephisto has apparently allied himself with them of his own accord.

Setsura Aki stands alone on the brink of extinction, tested by one desperate counterattack after the next. Intending to snuff out his life once and for all, Princess unleashes the self-regenerating Kazikli Bey (better known abroad as Vlad the Impaler, the original Dracula).

Meanwhile, concerned about the worsening state of affairs in Shinjuku, a team of foreign legionnaires--Special Forces Operational Detachment "F"--is dispatched to Demon City.

This Medusa of a supernatural face-off has grown another head. The confusion deepens and Shinjuku's fate hangs in the balance. But what is Mephisto really up to?

Yashakiden: The Demon Princess, Vol. 4

Yashakiden: Book 4

Hideyuki Kikuchi

As the immortal Demon Princess inexorably transforms Demon City Shinjuku into a vampire metropolis, Setsura infiltrates her manor house alone. There he encounters the puppet paramours and "picture soldiers" created by the warlock Kikiou.

The witch Galeen Nuvenberg once again comes to the rescue. But that only draws her into Princess's crosshairs as well.

Meanwhile, panicked by the growing vampire hordes in Shinjuku, the Japanese government and its American allies resolve to sterilize the city with nuclear weapons. As if taunting the stranded and isolated Setsura, the countdown to disaster has begun.

Yashakiden: The Demon Princess, Vol. 5

Yashakiden: Book 5

Hideyuki Kikuchi

Princess, the legendary evil vampire from ancient China, and her followers Kikiou and Ryuuki have unleashed the plague of vampirism upon the already debauched and depraved city on the edge of the abyss. As more and more of Shinjuku's citizens turn into creatures of the night, a secret government plan is hatched to annihilate Demon City with a nuclear device.

As the clock ticks down, beautiful manhunter Setsura Aki enters Princess's kingdom to retrieve Princess's hostage--the Prime Minister of Japan. There he meets a mysterious mask maker from a bygone era and undergoes a transformation. But will it be in time to save Shinjuku?

Meanwhile, the Demon Physician--Doctor Mephisto--remains a voluntary prisoner in Princess's camp. To what end--and whose side is the good doctor truly on?

And in Shinjuku's Magic Town, Tonbeau Nuvenberg and the Doll Girl find the portal to Princess's kingdom--a box sealed by magic. To open the box, they must do the impossible: access the timeline of the Universe itself--the Akashic Records.
