If you loved Kizumonogatari Part 2: Nekketsu, try Kizumonogatari Part 1: Tekketsu

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, Tatsuya Oishi, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Animation / Fantasy / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to Kizumonogatari Part 2: Nekketsu, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Kizumonogatari Part 1: Tekketsu is

Back alley. Spring. Puddle of blood. A near-dead god-vampire needs Araragi's blood to survive. He complies, becoming undead himself, but now three powerful vampire hunters want their pound of flesh. Oishi and Shinbo's first *Kizumonogatari* chapter is a hyperkinetic bloodbath.
