The light novel "Kaketa Tsuki no Mercedes" (Mercedes and the Waning Moon), starring a renegade noble vampire, is getting an anime ! The novel blends dark fantasy with dungeon crawling, featuring a charismatic and headstrong heroine.
A noble vampire in the depths of the dungeon
Born the daughter of a concubine into a decadent noble house, Mercedes' life isn't easy. To support her mother, she decides to brave the dangers of a vast underground labyrinth. Rather than eliminate the creatures she encounters, Mercedes chooses to tame them, building an army of loyal monsters as she progresses through increasingly dangerous layers.
