Tsuki to Laika to Nosferatu synopsis
After a brutal world war, 2 world powers, engaged in a fierce development race, set their sights on space. The year is 1960, and a Lieutenant of the Republic in the east, Lev Lapis, is on a secret mission. The plan is to send vampires into space, as an experiment before actual manned flights. Lev volunteered for the mission because he wanted to become an astronaut as a child. But, his duty is to watch the experimental subject, a vampire named Irina. Irina hates humans, who treat her badly as she is a member of the “cursed race”. However, the two share love for space and only want to explore and learn more about it. As the United Kingdom of Arnak draws closer, will they be able to overcome difficulties and fulfill their dreams?
