鬼呪装備の修業で優一郎は、阿朱羅丸と対決・対話する. 鬼である阿朱羅丸をも仲間と呼ぶ優一郎にさらなる力は身に付くのか!? 君月の修業も経て、チームの絆は深まるが、軍部や吸血鬼には不気味な動きが…!?

English
The only thing standing between humans and complete slavery to vampires is their tenacity and Cursed Gear. Yūichirō has the first in droves, but to increase the amount of power he can draw from the demon inside his cursed sword, he enters a coma-like state to thin the barrier between human and demon. His power boost can come none too soon as the vampire queen reveals her plans to annihilate the human's resistance.

Author's note
"I write this blurb right after I finish the afterword. Because I write it so soon after, I always feel like I don't have anything left to say. But I think of something. Right now, I'm eating chilled tofu at a family restaurant. I hope you enjoy Seraph of the End volume 6!"

- Takaya Kagami

"Yūichirō begins training with his Cursed Gear. Will he survive? The writing and the drawing of this series is one trial after another. Your comments are a great morale booster!"

- Yamato Yamamoto

Cover Details
Volume six's cover features vampire third progenitor Krul Tepes who reigns as queen of Japan, where in the chapters, such as chapter 22 she is sending Mika on his own mission against vampires and humans. Looking ahead, Krul is depicted in color with her pink hair, where her almost entirely black clothing is viewed. White frills and a deeper pink ribbon around her neck also makes up the attire. From her position in the light, Krul's face is in the shade. She has positioned her head so that it rests on her hand, which is on top of her raised leg. Krul is holding a half filled vial of what is almost certainly blood, as well as the stopper in her right hand. Arukanu is perched on Krul's right shoulder and is seen as particularly small.

Krul is sitting on a red blanket that drapes over the seat of the throne she is on. The royal purple colored seat and backrest of the throne is adorned with a decorative golden design. From the irregular patterns, a daisy flower like motif is a relatively consistent one. Golden shaped flowers are also featured on the front legs of the throne, which are high enough so that Krul's black high-heeled boot, with a pink outsole and heel, does not reach the floor. On a side of the throne there appears to be some indiscernible text emblazoned on a blue colored type of pentagon design.

Situated in a light environment, shining downwards from what resemble sunbeams on the right, Krul on her throne is amongst many flowers, with flecks of gold floating around the entire scene. Concerning the flowers which are directly underneath and around the throne, but also high up behind it too, ones resembling a white trumpet, and a blue rose can be viewed. Pink, white, red, and blue colors make up the vibrancy of the flowers. Many are individual flowers, yet some types can feature many small flowers on one plant. Of the non-flowering ones, a blue leaved plant is one of the few seen more than once and across different locations.
