A Shot that Changed it All

They say a picture paints a thousand words, in reality, a single photograph can really change lives and that it can do tons of things for people. It can bring people together, prove one’s innocence, and immortalize memories and more!

Akihiro Okamura from Blood+

For this guy, his complicated life really started with a single photo. A simple photo was what started it all. Since he was a child, his father had been telling him tales of wars and the like as a veteran war photographer. However, it was one photograph taken by his father that had always intrigued him. It was an unexplainable scene which even his father denies to explain. As he grew older, he became a photographer and a reporter much like his father – but his luck was not as fortunate as his veteran father. But when he takes a lead on the photo that his father took years ago, he became very determined to solve the case and found him immersed in the very complicated and gloomy story of Saya and her sister Diva.

But as two worlds meld together, with Hibiki starting the union of worlds with the female pirates. That union grows stronger upon the discovery of a family picture which had a woman, a man and a child together in one photo – and a video which shows how harmonious such life could be.
