Queen's Blade: Vanquished Queens (Visual Book) is an alternative series in the Queen's Blade franchise. It's remarkable for its depiction of the cast being "vanquished", or defeated in means usually contradictory to the what happened in the anime. Scenes of the beautiful fighters being defeated, that reveal new events that happened between Queen's Blade and Queen's Blade Rebellion and explain why most of the previous characters aren't back for the Rebellion saga.
