Takayama reprimands Masane after she’s spotted with a civilian during an encounter with an X-Con. Her punishment: get dolled up and accompany the Director to a fancy dinner party.

After arriving in Tokyo, Masane becomes unhinged when Rihoko is spirited away by the Child Welfare Ministry. In the chaos, the Witchblade is unleashed!

While Gramps and Elfriede join forces and take on Count Kinkel, Kouhei finds Hazuki and wakes her from an enchanted slumber. Unfortunately, the girl who rises to greet him isn’t who he had hoped for.

Hazuki finds herself unprotected after her hopes are painfully manipulated by Count Kinkel. Kouhei and his grandfather must charge into battle to save her.

Finding Kouhei a pitiful excuse for a slave, Hazuki uses her powers to brainwash another unsuspecting soul into following her every command. When Kouhei finds out, a painful fight ensues.

Kouhei’s family, Hazuki, and Haiji seek mystical assistance at the Mido home in Kyoto. When Elfriede arranges a clandestine rendezvous with Kouhei, Hazuki steps in to set things straight.

Elfriede, a servant of Count Kinkel, has come to retrieve Hazuki and return her to the castle. The little vampire proves to be less than agreeable, and a fierce and furry battle begins.

The return of the full moon has stirred Hazuki’s thirst for blood. When Kouhei won’t give her what she wants, the little vamp sets out on the hunt.

Kouhei and Hazuki seek out the young vampire’s childhood home, so that she may fulfill her last promise to her mother - the same mother who abandoned her two years past.

In this zany spoof, the Mido house has been relocated to the middle of the ocean. While no one but Seiji seems to notice anything wrong with this, the rest go along with their off beat day.

Life for the Mido family returns to normal. Ryuuhei welcomes friends and family to celebrate, but plans go astray as the full moon feast begins. Kouhei might have to save the day one last time.

The castle which had been Hazuki's cage for so long appears, summoned by her acceptance of her fate. Yayoi, Hikaru, and Haiji follow her in while Gramps and Elfriede struggle to keep the castle from leaving.

Kouhei cannot reconcile the little vampire he has grown to love with the monster before his eyes. As the Puppet Master attacks, Hazuki must embrace Kouhei - and Kouhei must embrace his fear.

Forbidden from killing Luna, Mistress Arte decides to kill the servant instead. Yet the Mido family hides its own share of dark secrets, for the truth behind Kouhei’s lack of psychic prowess is revealed.

Hazuki and Hikaru rush unheeding into the arms of the enemy, and Yayoi and Seiji hurry to their aid. Kouhei is at the mercy of the child vampire, as the defender of the mountain watches from the forest.

Seiji returns bearing grim news of the world outside, but the danger has arrived before the warning. As her servant lies broken at the hands of another, Hazuki flies out into the unknown to save him.

In order to free Hazuki, Kouhei sets out to destroy the crystal orb - the source of the castle guardian’s power. Meanwhile, Seiji joins the battle from outside the barrier.

Kaoru, jealous of the bond between Kouhei and Hazuki, seeks to capture her betrothed’s attention by copying the antics of the young vampire. It’s a feline fetish under the full moon!

Kouhei’s intense training in the mystical arts pays off. When Hazuki is set upon by a demon up on the mountain heights, it’s the servant to the rescue.

During the quiet hours of the night, Elfriede unburdens her soul to Gramps. Kouhei, feeling powerless to protect Hazuki should another vampire come after them, decides to take his training into his own hands.
