Plot:
Panic and disillusionment run rampant in the secluded village that is now a hunting ground for theShiki. These vampire-like beings endure an existence that relies on the death of others in an ancient struggle against humans—and sometimes themselves. But when their secrets are mercilessly exposed, roles are suddenly reversed as the sleepy town turns into a battleground of bloodlust. Haunting, hallucinogenic and unnerving to the core, Shiki stares into the hearts of both the hunter and the hunted. Who is safe when the urge to kill in order to survive blurs the line between man and monster?

Shiki's first release (Part 1 LE and Part 2) are now out of print from Funimation as a Blu-ray and DVD combo pack. Shiki is still available from Siren Visual for Blu-ray and DVD sets in Australia. Manga UK only has the DVD version but the Funimation release is compatible with Region B players in United Kingdom.
