The blue glass moon hung low and heavy over the Souya hills, its light not white but a deep, aching cobalt. It painted the world in shades of bruise and memory. Shiki Tohno stood on the edge of the reclaimed park, his breathing shallow. The dream had come again—the one with the crimson hallway and the woman who smiled like a knife.
He pressed his fingers to the bridge of his glasses. The lines of death were always there, buzzing beneath the surface, but tonight they were louder. Thrumming. The moon’s light seemed to make them sing.
A soft footfall on wet grass. He didn’t turn.
“You shouldn’t be out,” Arcueid Brunestud said, her voice carrying the weight of centuries and the lightness of a child. She stepped beside him, her pale hair glowing like spun starlight against the blue-dark sky. Her dress was simple, her bare feet unbothered by the cold ground. “The moon is full. Not the red one—not yet—but it calls to me. And I think it calls to you too.”
“I see cracks,” Shiki said quietly. “More than usual. In the sky. In the ground. In you.”
Arcueid tilted her head, curious rather than afraid. “Do you?”
“A single line. Right down the center of your chest.” Tsukihime A piece of blue glass moon
A pause. Then she smiled, small and sad. “Would you cut it?”
He didn’t answer. He never did.
Far below, in the forgotten basement of the Tohno mansion, a piece of blue glass sat inside a velvet-lined box. It was not a jewel. It was a shard of the moon itself—fallen ages ago, before the Ancestors, before the crimson eclipse. When held, it did not reflect light. It remembered it. Memories of a world before death lines, before the family curses, before the boy was given eyes that could end anything.
A maid in a purple dress approached the box. Kohaku’s smile was soft, unchanging, as she lifted the shard.
“The moon is beautiful tonight, isn’t it?” she whispered to no one.
The glass pulsed once. Blue. Cold. Hungry. The blue glass moon hung low and heavy
And in the park, Shiki Tohno suddenly turned, his knife hand trembling. For one impossible second, he saw the line of death not just in Arcueid—but in the moon itself.
“Don’t,” Arcueid said, and for the first time, there was real fear in her voice. “Some deaths aren’t meant to be seen. Some endings, if cut, never stop cutting.”
The blue light overhead flickered.
Shiki closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the moon was just a moon. White. Distant. Dead.
But the piece of blue glass in the mansion’s dark heart was no longer cold. It was warm now.
Waiting.
And somewhere deep in the soil of Souya, something older than the Ancestors turned in its sleep, dreaming of a boy who could kill the sky.

While primarily a visual novel, A Piece of Blue Glass Moon incorporates several gameplay systems.
The original Tsukihime made Type-Moon famous, but the studio’s other child, Fate/stay night, became a global juggernaut. For years, fans asked about the promised "Far Side" remake. The answer came in 2021: the team had been waiting for technology, budget, and a script worthy of their evolution. A Piece of Blue Glass Moon is the result—a title named after the iconic phrase "blue glass moon," which represents the fragile, beautiful, and false sky that the vampire Arcueid Brunestud embodies.
