Overview
Set in 19th-century Paris, The Case Study of Vanitas follows Noé Archiviste, a young vampire traveling to the city, who crosses paths with a mysterious human doctor who calls himself Vanitas. The doctor carries the Book of Vanitas, a grimoire said to hold the power to curse — or cure — vampires, and he offers Noé a partnership that is as dangerous as it is tempting.
Together, the two are drawn into a shadowy world of vampire politics, secret societies, and old grudges, where every cure comes with a price. Blending steampunk Paris, gothic mystery, and sharp humor, the series turns a simple question — can a vampire’s curse truly be healed? — into a stylish, suspenseful adventure.
