Synopsis

Shiki Toono wakes up in a hospital to find black lines covering everything around him—the walls, the people, all of it. His memory's completely shot from a car accident that should've killed him, though doctors managed to save him despite a fragment embedded in his chest. He figures out pretty quickly that he can destroy things by tracing these lines, and the urge to do it is almost overwhelming. When he realizes he's the only one who can see them, he gets a pair of glasses to hide them and moves in with relatives to try and live normally. Eight years pass. His father's death brings him back to the Toono mansion where he grew up. One afternoon he leaves school because of a panic attack and crosses paths with some mysterious woman on the street. Something just snaps in him—without thinking, he traces the lines covering her. Next thing he knows, he's back at the mansion with no idea if any of it actually happened. Shingetsutan Tsukihime follows Shiki as he tries to piece together his past and confront the strange, dangerous things that keep pulling him back into a world he doesn't fully understand. There's mystery, action, and romance tangled up in it all, and not everything is what it seems.
