Fans of The Case Study of Vanitas anime, based on the manga written and illustrated by Jun Mochizuki, can soon look forward to the beginning of a new arc. The story ventures into new territory starting with episode 20, so a fresh key visual is here with Mikhail (VA: Mikako Komatsu) front and center.
Here’s how Crunchyroll describes the series, which comes from BONES and director Tomoyuki Itamura (Nisemonogatari):
In nineteenth-century France, humans and vampires coexist.
The young vampire Noé is traveling to Paris in search of The Book of Vanitas, which is said to be capable of unleashing a curse upon all vampires.
On an airship, he finds himself embroiled in a strange incident. It is Vanitas, a human calling himself a vampire expert, who appears before Noé in the ensuing chaos. In Vanitas’s hands is the very book that Noé has been searching for: The Book of Vanitas…
Following this encounter, the curtain is set to rise on this tale of vampires, curses, and salvation…
