The Vampire Hunter D OVA is going to appear in movie theaters in April 2025 as part of a promotion to celebrate the novel, manga, and anime. This adaptation first launched in 1985 in Japan. Showings will air on three days, and tickets are now available through the official Iconic site.
In this OVA, D is enlisted to aid Doris in helping defeat the vampire Count Lee. She’s been bitten and, in so doing, became his target. The hope is that by fighting back, she and everyone threatened by the Count’s existence can be saved.
In terms of showings, it seems that there might only be one per day at each location taking part. Showings will only take place on April 9, 2025, April 10, 2025, and April 13, 2025. It appears to be about $15 per ticket, though this may vary depending on your location.
To go along with the Vampire Hunter D OVA showings in movie theaters, there’s a new trailer that highlights the characters and art with clips from the anime.
There 40th anniversary of the series is also being celebrated in Japan. Pre-orders are open for a remastered Blu-ray release. That will launch on March 26, 2025. An extended trailer from Avex showing how that will look is available online.
The Vampire Hunter D OVA will appear in movie theaters in the US between April 9-13, 2025. The novels still appear in Japan, with one of the most recent ones launching there in 2025.
