Synopsis by Cammila Collar

Miyu may be a vampire, but old-fashioned ideas about blood-sucking fiends stalking innocent people in the night don't apply to her. Miyu is the last of the vampires, and her mission on Earth is only to destroy the evil shinma demons that roam the word, taking human shape and preying on unsuspecting people. Her life is solitary; she can form bonds with neither people nor demons, and her only companion is Larva, a creature that was once a shinma but now has become her devoted friend. By day, she maintains the guise of a high-school student, living amongst the weak, vulnerable people that she fights every night to save, and by night she confronts the shinma and her own destiny: to walk a line for all eternity between light and dark, with no place amongst neither demons nor humans. This 26-episode anime TV series was adapted from an original four-episode OVA.
