Asura Girl: Blood-C Another Story (Japanese: 阿修羅少女〜BLOOD-C異聞〜, Hepburn: Ashura Shojō: Buraddo-Shī Ibun) is a 2017 Japanese action horror film directed by Shutaro Oku and written by Junichi Fujisaku based on the 2011 anime television series Blood-C, co-created by studio Production I.G and manga artist group CLAMP. Distributed by NEGA, Asura Girl is set in the pre-World War II era before the events of Blood-C; in the universe Blood-C, humanity is secretly preyed upon by a race called the Elder Bairns, whose feeding is kept under control by an ancient agreement called Shrovetide. Asura Girl follows the backstory for Ran (who was introduced in 2015's Blood-C: The Last Mind stage play), and a bloody conflict between a small village and Special Political Police force. The film stars Kaede Aono as Ran, with Kanon Miyahara as Saya Kisaragi, alongside Ryūnosuke Matsumura, Arata Furuta and Eiji Takigawa. Asura Girl was released in Japan on August 26, 2017.
The film marks the first live-action film adaptation for Blood-C series, and the second live-action film adaptation for the Blood franchise, following Blood: The Last Vampire (2009).
