Peaches and The City is an adult animated series set in a fictional, overcrowded metropolis that follows the relatable, often horrific misadventures of a jaded vampire turned vigilante.
Peaches is a reluctant hero struggling to navigate the tricky duality of her life.
By day, she’s the ultimate it girl - a jaded podcaster devoted to self-care and empowerment in all its forms.
By night, she seeks redemption from her monstrous thirst, stalking the many criminals plaguing The City.
Over three centuries old, Peaches offers a rare perspective to explore the various archetypes of Black women in cinema, animation, and the superhero genre.
And dares to ask:
In transcending death, time, and space - unbound by the laws of gods or men - can a Black woman ever truly be free?
Adult Animation provides limitless creativity, yet there is still a shocking absence of Black female characters.
Works in this genre explore a host of ideas, sometimes philosophical, political, and social issues.
Creatively mined from the makings of Black millennial group chats, Peaches and The City will hilariously expose the many horrors lurking in the shadows of everyday life.
Our series features a diverse mix of characters to explore relevant topics, developed for and by Blerds - a community that has heavily contributed to the anime genre's widespread popularity across social media.
