The year is 1923. Following the changes brought about by WWI, Japan is moving towards a new era of technology and industrialization. But this is not a strictly historical anime. While it's obvious that the creators have done their research, there's a little but important detail that changes everything; the Japan we're witnessing is plagued by vampires.

The main character Yoshinobu Maeda is called back on active duty to tackle the problem. The first episode of MARS RED was very much introductory; it almost felt like a short story, poetic, without loose threads regarding the vampire issue.

The main character was established, and he met characters that might prove important later on, including a reporter and a young subordinate who is newlywed. We also find out that Maeda himself is betrothed to a woman he doesn't know.

While the actress who got infected by vampires in Episode 1 was beyond saving, it has already been suggested that Maeda's team had considered keeping her as an agent? Will this happen when they encounter another newly made vampire? MARS RED has opened up a number of possibilities and Episode 2 might reveal more about the direction the show is taking.
