ASCII Media Works serialized Gakuto Mikumo’s Strike the Blood light novel series from 2011 until 2020, with Manyako’s illustrations, and it had a total of 22 volumes, and 2 side stories. A manga adaptation by Tate was also published from 2012 to 2016 in Dengeki Daioh magazine, and it had a total of 10 volumes available. Yen Press licensed the original Strike the Blood light novel series and describes the plot as:

He never asked for this power.

Kojou Akatsuki used to be an ordinary high school boy–but that was before he became the Fourth Primogenitor, the most powerful vampire of all time. Worse–he doesn’t even remember how it happened. Middle schooler Yukina Himeragi, meanwhile, is the Attack Mage sent to observe him–and to stop him if he gets out of control. But was it really a good idea to send a cute girl to observe a massively powerful vampire boy whose abilities activate whenever he gets aroused? And on an artificial island populated with all manner of demonic individuals, each with their own designs on the Fourth Primogenitor–?!
