Being a blood warrior for Hime is getting downright lethal when everyone --- and everything! --- crawls out of the shadows to take the vampire princess out. Reiri is still sucking the blood of her nubile classmates and it seems like the same-old, same-old until the appearance of a mummy proves to be the harbinger of an all-out undead war against Hime. The Pharaoh has come a-calling and he has a legion of mummies to overwhelm Hime’s defenses! It’s a macabre action-comedy, with Hime napping during the battle and then breaking out two chainsaws when she wants to really get down-and-dirty. The Egyptian undead aren’t the only problem. This volume, a headless horseman is looking for spare body parts and werewolf Riza is in for the race of her life on her motorcycle. It also introduces Zeppeli. He’s also a vampire and seems to be up to nefarious things. Later, when Hime sends Hiro with a housewarming gift to her sister Sherwood, a sinister trap is sprung. Separated from Hime, Hiro is given a choice: drink Sherwood’s blood and become her slave --- or he’ll never reach Hime in time! All the suspense and bloodbaths have made Hime decide it’s time for a vacation. A trip on her yacht with her motley crew has them fleeing a sinking ship only to board a ghostly vessel. Werewolves, mermaids, sea monsters and the introduction of Hime’s older brother lead to a climactic arc in this volume. There are a lot of creatures after Hime, and the final pages may reveal the most sinister antagonist yet!
IN SUMMARY: Princess Resurrection is a macabre action-comedy where you can find laughs amid the horror. It’s a bloody great time!
