English Dub Review: The Case Study of Vanitas “Love”

Overview (Spoilers Below):

Now that the crazy crashed party is in the past, Vanitas and Noe are living with Luca’s rich uncle and spending time with their friends while they recuperate. Vanitas is totally in love with Jeanne, but denies their romance in public in front of Luca by claiming she was not in her right mind when she sucked his blood. Meanwhile, Noe wrestles with his own feelings as he ponders the concept of love.

The eighth episode of Vanitas opens with a confused Noe asking Vanitas to explain what love is, and that cringy interaction really set the tone for the rest of this week’s proceedings. The imaginatively titled Love is one of the slowest paced episodes I’ve seen of the show to date. There’s really not much that happens apart from everyone having a lot of romantic tension with everyone else. But hey, I guess that’s better than talking through a lot of exposition! (Although there is plenty of that, too.)

After the weird flash forward opening of Noe’s question to Vanitas, the episode starts out with a scene in which Luca, Jeanne, Noe, and Vanitas are eating a meal together in a fancy restaurant. Everything is going about as well as can be expected when Vanitas suddenly gets all weird and reveals that Jeanne has sucked his blood by showing everyone her mark on his shoulder. She gets all flustered and denies it while Luca is just shocked and offended. In the end, Vanitas backs down by saying it wasn’t her choice because she was in a magical kind of daze thanks to the curse bearers, but then Jeanne drags him outside to talk and Vanitas confirms that his story was just a bunch of bunk to save face.

The two of them have one of the most drawn out exchanges of flirting I’ve ever seen — if you can call it flirting. Vanitas just keeps acting creepy and saying dumb things in the most sleazy manner possible while Jeanne is a brick wall. They have negative romantic chemistry and that made it so bad to watch that it was almost good? Later on, Vanitas admits to Noe that he knows Jeanne will never reciprocate his feelings, but that he prefers it that way because he wouldn’t be interested in the type of person who’s interested in him. Yeesh.

Vanitas and Jeanne might not have the greatest it factor in the world, but Noe and Dom get to show off their own talents in this episode too! She starts sucking on his throat and then he ends up drinking the blood from her hand at the same time. I just—this show is something else. At least Dom and Noe seem to fit better together than Vanitas and Jeanne, even if that’s not saying much.

And of course, since this is an episode all about love, the show staff just had to throw in some bait for the Vanitas/Noe shippers out there, giving them a short dancing scene at the end because Vanitas is “too scared” to dance with Jeanne because he’s afraid of stepping on her feet. With so many weird couples and relationships it felt like this episode was just throwing things at the wall in hopes of something sticking. Blood! Unrequited love! Dancing! You’ll like one of these things for sure! Sadly, I didn’t really like anything that this episode gave us. None of these characters have much chemistry and they all act super melodramatic and dumb all the time (especially Noe). I definitely did not love Love .

The Case Study of Vanitas Part 1 Ending Explained

The Case Study of Vanitas released its final episode for now

Published: Sep 21, 2021, 2:26 Updated: Oct 20, 2021, 4:04

The Case Study of Vanitas released its final episode for now. Thankfully, the second 12-episode cour is already confirmed, so returning to the steampunk vampire Paris is only a matter of time, and we just can't wait. Meanwhile, here's the ending of Part 1 explained:

The Case Study of Vanitas Ending Explained: What Is Ruthven's Plan?

In Episode 11, Ruthven seriously injured Noé, making us worry about his fate; this happened because Noé proclaimed that he likes vampires and humans equally, as both are equally capable of good and evil alike. Without spoiling too much from the manga, it's important to know that Ruthven once shared this idealism but does not anymore, so he took Noé's remark rather personally.

The finale reveals that Ruthven decided to keep the young vampire alive for now. However, by attacking and drinking his blood, the vampire lord forced a terrible fate on Noé. At one single – an currently unknown -point in the future, Noé will have to obey one command by Ruthven, whatever it is.

Noé is forced to swear this oath, though it's strongly implied that he does not remember it, as he wakes up fine, with only his thirst for Vanitas' blood concerning him. At this point, we've no way of knowing what Ruthven is going to demand. However, given the way Season 1 started, I would guess that Ruthven is going to command Noé to kill Vanitas .

After all, Noé admits to that from the very beginning, and this is a major plot point that keeps fans interesting. Killing Vanitas seems so out of character for Noé so it would make sense for him to be supernaturally coerced, rather than do it out of his own volition. Hopefully, Part 2 and the ongoing manga will reveal the answer sooner rather than later.

It is clear that Lord Ruthven is not on our main characters' side, but we'll, unfortunately, have to wait a bit longer to discover his exact motivations.

The Case Study of Vanitas Ending Explained: Where Are the Main Characters Now?

The dynamic between the main characters is still quite fragile, though they've settled into a rather comfortable companionship. Noé finds Vanitas intriguing, and he's very interested in his blood. Of course, given how Noé is an Archiviste, someone who can access a person's memory by drinking their blood, Vanitas has made it very clear that this is out of the question.

Vanitas' past will therefore remain a mystery for now, as what little he chooses to reveal is often disjointed and potentially unreliable. However, the anime and manga have a long way to go, so we can hope that more about him will be revealed soon.

As Noé is still ashamed of his lapse at a moment of extreme hunger, things between him and Vanitas are a bit awkward, but the two nevertheless embark on a new journey. This time, they're traveling to find out more about the infamous beast of Gevaudan. In the far away, snow land, an unnamed new character is revealed to be plotting their revenge.

Meanwhile, Noé's new friend, the chasseur Roland, is warned that his friendly disposition towards Noé will threaten his family, as he's supposed to be a vampire hunter first.

Jeanne has a lot to process, as her feelings for Vanitas remain more complicated than she initially hope, and it appears that the human has feelings for her as well, given how much of his blood he's let her consume. But is she a curse bearer? Neither Jeanne nor Vanitas were able to tell at the time, so this could pose an interesting tension later on.

While not particularly complex, the ending of Vanitas no Karte leaves a lot of questions and many plot points to be picked up at a later time. The new episode batch can't come soon enough!

• House de Sade

Dominique de Sade

Dominique de Sade (ドミニク・ド・サド, Dominiku do Sado ), frequently nicknamed Domi (ドミ, Domi ) is a major protagonist from Jun Mochizuki 's The Case Study of Vanitas . A Vampire of the Crimson Moon , she is the childhood friend of Noé Archiviste , having met him through her grandfather, his Teacher . Born the youngest child of the influential House de Sade , Dominique adopts a brash, authoritative persona, taking it upon herself to serve as Noé's "protector." She holds a great distrust for Vanitas , whom she regards as a potential corrupting influence on her close friend. She works as a knight for Carbunculus Castle . [1]

Twenty years prior to Noé's trip to Paris, Dominique was born, raised to believe she was a year younger than her brother Louis , and the youngest of four siblings. While Louis was declared a curse-bearer and sent to live with their grandfather, Dominique was raised by her biological parents in Altus Paris , only occasionally visiting him in the rural village of Averoigne . When she and Louis were still quite young, they met Noé, who had been taken as a student by their grandfather. The three quickly developed a deep friendship, Dominique developing romantic feelings for Noé over the next several years. [2]

When she, Louis, and Noé were in their teens, a failed attempt to rescue a child in the final stages of Malnomen resulted in the corruption of Louis's True Name and his death by decapitation. [2] She gave Noé a box of unknown contents upon Louis's instruction, having been told to give it to Noé "when the time comes." Horrified by what was inside, Noé collapsed, [3] leaving Dominique to fret over his health for the next several days. It was during this time she learned she and Louis had in fact been twins, the birth of which was highly stigmatized in Vampire society. Their birth as twins had been covered up, Domi chosen arbitrarily from the two to survive, Louis intended for death but rescued by their grandfather on a whim. After Noé briefly confuses Dominique for Louis before collapsing again, Dominique developed an extreme inferiority complex surrounding her brother. She began to crossdress and adopt a more masculine persona out of the belief Noé would've preferred Louis survived in her stead. [4]

Appearance [ ]

Dominique is a tall, thin woman with pale skin and a neat hourglass body type. She has broad shoulders, a small bust, wide hips, and a well-defined butt. Her face is round with a small, pointed chin, a large forehead, thin eyebrows, and large, golden, upturned eyes with thick eyelashes. Black, wavy hair falls past her hips, her long bangs parted in the center of her forehead such that some of her hair falls into her eyes, while the rest covers her ears. Otherwise, her hair is usually kept loose and unstyled. Like all vampires of the Crimson Moon, her eyes will occasionally turn red.

Though she changes outfits several times over the course of the series, Dominique's usual outfit consists of a black button-up over white pants, a long, white, gold-accented tailcoat with large cuffs, black thigh-high boots, and a black bow. In addition to this, she wears a purple, ribbon-like sash attached to a sword sheath, where she normally keeps a rapier. In most of her appearances, she wears purple gloves. Her outfit would be considered very masculine for the setting.

As a child, Dominique bore a very strong resemblance to her brother , though she was shorter and their fashion tastes differed. Prior to Louis's death, Dominique had long hair she would keep loose or in a bun, and would favor dresses. She either lacked bangs or parted them to the side. After he died, she cut her hair short and began to deliberately mimic his choices in fashion, styling her hair like his, beginning to wear pants, and adopting an overall less feminine gender presentation.

Personality [ ]

Dominique is initially presented as a confident and flirtatious young woman with a bold and ostentatious manner. During her introduction she asserts that she is Noé's fiancée and, when Noé reveals this is a lie, flirts with Nox to distract from her indiscretion (though the latter interaction is cut from the anime). She naturally attempts to protect those she likes, such as Noé and Jeanne, though this protectiveness does not often take into account other's wishes. As such, she is hostile to Vanitas, going so far as to threaten, interrogate, and briefly stalk him, as she perceives him as a threat to Noé and later Jeanne.

Despite her apparent confidence, Domi is shown to fake competence at times. When Jeanne asks for advice to scare Vanitas off on the presumption Dominique has a history with troublesome men, Dominique refuses to admit she has no dating experience with men and instead gives Jeanne advice based on what she'd learned of Vanitas through Noé in an attempt to remain Jeanne's protector. Though she tells Jeanne she does not care for the impact their relations may have on her reputation (as Dominique is a noble and Jeanne is a Bourreau,) she is greatly embarrassed by being defeated and bound in combat.

Behind this brash, outgoing, and sometimes sadistic exterior, Dominique is deeply insecure, and her narration frequently turns to self-degradation. She is frequently the target of bullying by her elder siblings, who refer to her as a failure and mock her fondness for Noé and Jeanne. Following Louis's death, Dominique becomes convinced both Noé and her family would've preferred she had perished instead. While Noé had come down with a fever, she suffers a breakdown and goes so far as to attack her maids when they tried to stop her from cutting her hair. Subsequently she attempted to play Louis's role, adopting a male speech pattern and style of dress. Nevertheless, her relationship with her family does not improve, and Noé does not return her feelings for him. After meeting Misha, Dominique becomes convinced that Noé would be happier were she to die. When Jeanne thwarts Dominique's suicide attempt, Domi expresses jealousy towards her and claims to despise her.

Dominique has a more girlish side. She is sometimes flustered by discussions of sex or romance, despite affecting a more experienced personality. When Jeanne mentions the possibility of sex with Vanitas, Dominique tells her that relationships between men and women should start with the exchange of letters. Her siblings' discussion of sex causes her great embarrassment, and she was susceptible to teasing by Louis regarding her crush on Noé.

Powers and Abilities [ ]

General: As a Vampire , Dominique has far greater strength, speed, and endurance than an average human being by strengthening her physical abilities with interference of the World Formula . She is fit, active, and trained in combat, very much capable of holding her own in a fight with ease, but her natural abilities are no more than that of an average Vampire. Still, she has been shown fighting easily against multiple other Vampires [3] and works as a knight in Carbunculus Castle , [5] showing her skills and credentials to be significant in their own right.

Weapons: Dominique's main weapon of choice is a long thing rapier with gold and purple sheath and hilt, which is nearly always strapped to the side of her waist. She is very skilled and highly trained in sword fighting, her movements and reflexes very fast and accurate. [6] She is able to both exert deadly force if need be, and also fight to subdue and restrain against less dangerous foes. In addition to her sword, she is also very skilled at knife throwing, easily hitting her intended targets even upon a spinning wheel. [7]

World Formula Interference: As a de Sade Dominique possesses the ability of cryokinesis , the ability to create and control ice, by rewriting the World Formula much like her older siblings. Whereas the rest of her family uses their powers destructively and nearly always with deadly force and intent, Dominique is more likely to use her ability with restraint and mercy. With her cryokinesis, Dominique can summon large shards of ice out of thin air and manipulate them to fly and crash into any target she wishes. The shards of ice will explode and expand into massive waves of ice, which she can use to restrain and trap people. The ice Dominique produces is so strong it can protect against the weight of a falling ferris wheel without giving or breaking in any way. While the other de Sades' powers are far more forceful, Dominique still possesses her own keen, precise kind of strength. [8]

(*) - Denotes that the character did not appear physically, but as a part of another character's memories.

• "Dominique" means "of the lord." [16]
• In Mémoire 12: Pause , Dominique says to Jeanne "'Acts of pleasure are the passion to which all others are subordinate.' I'm quoting my father." This is one possible translation of a quote attributed to the real life Marquis de Sade, usually translated as, "Sexual pleasure is, I agree, a passion to which all others are subordinate but in which they all unite." This confirms the fictional head of the de Sade family to be directly based on the Marquis de Sade.
• After Louis's death, Dominique changes her preferred first-person pronoun from 私 ( watashi ) to the more masculine 僕 ( boku ).
• She is a weepy drunk. [18]
• Dominique is one of the first of Mochizuki's characters to be portrayed as bisexual, having expressed romantic affection for a man—Noé [9] —and a woman—Jeanne. [14]
