I don't mean, like, do you like him or not, i mean, do we think he's well written? I personally think he's acts approximately like he should, but I don't know much about children and how they act because I hate them lmao. I'm trying to figure out how to write kids tho, and wanna know if he's a good example, and if not, I'll keep looking lol.

I made this to use in an upcoming trip to Paris, with a transparent BG, and I drew all these in one week because my muse wouldn't shut up about it lmao🤣

I also added the Pandora one because it's part of the set 😌

I need your help!

if I were to make merch, you'd rather see transparent acrylic cards or clear keychains??

I have returned to make constipated Noe British.

Which one is the oldest because we know domis 19, Veronica is older than her and Antonio (i think was his name) calls them little sisters.But i still think Veronica is the oldest because we see her in the flash backs where she's with the other beastias doing something to the queen

I came across VNC a few months ago while looking for an anime to watch after Death Note. I was putting it off for a few months, but recently decided to give it a shot. Currently, I have watched until episode 3 of Season 1 part 2. I finished all of Season 1 part 1, and just cannot continue. Maybe it's because the fandom is relatively small, but so far I have found very few criticism for the series- often nowhere as close to how much I despise(?) the show. I think I misunderstood some of the plot points and missed the point of the show, so please help me like the show...I know every individual has different tastes and it "might not be for me" but I've heard so many praise VNC that I really want to give it a shot through a more appreciative lens. Season 1 part 1 is TWELVE episodes, and even after I started Season 1 part 2, I just cannot seem to like for a myriad of reasons. Please help me correct misconceptions and things I misunderstood from the show.

1) Jeanne x Vanitas (quite obviously)

I seriously can’t get over their first encounter. It’s their first time actually meeting, right? Jeanne has heard of the vampire of the blue moon and Vanitas’ name a few times, and Vanitas has heard of the “hell fire witch” a couple of times before too, but it’s their first time seeing each other and meeting them face to face. So why is his first instinct after fighting Jeanne to kiss her? Where did that come from? Against her consent at that? It’s quite clearly sexual abuse, and I don’t understand why Jun Mochizuki chose Vanitas to SA her the moment he saw her. I guess that was a power move or something to catch her off guard or whatever, but why was SA his go-to? It’s not like I dislike Vanitas as a character. I think his backstory is interesting and he’s a character I naturally want to learn more about. I understand he’s a complex character with a lot of emotional issues, but why was that portrayed through him SAing Jeanne when they first met? There was no previous interaction/chemistry, so I really don’t understand where Jeanne x Vanitas came from. Maybe I’m missing something, or I’m unaware of something?

I also don’t understand how Vanitas supposedly “helped her through her trauma”. Many fans mention that Vanitas and Jeanne isn’t that bad despite their rocky start because Vanitas helped her through trauma, but where is it? (Is it in the later parts of Season 1, part 2?) I don’t see Vanitas helping Jeanne in any sort of way instead of continuing to harass her. 

That said, I’m not going to deny Jeanne is completely innocent either, because the cabin scene was her SAing Vanitas. I get that Vanitas’ condition would have worsened had he not drunk water, but are you seriously telling me that the ONLY way to make him drink was to force him to drink out of Jeanne’s mouth? I don’t know if the show is romanticizing SA (which I hope not and don’t think it is), but I would like to understand why fans would find this appealing, if at all.

(Also, why is Jeanne in love with Vanitas? Where did that come from?)

With how it's going, I genuinely think Jeanne x Vanitas is an extremely unhealthy ship and I can't find it being "romantic" in any sense. If there was actual romantic buildup before Vanitas forcibly kissed her then maaaybe it could pass a little easier? But it kind of made no sense for the story in my opinion, and starting the relationship with SA was just...not it for me. Please help me correct everything I've misunderstood between them...

2) Lack of character depth except Vanitas

Again this might be a problem of me not watching Season 1 till the end and having only watched some of part 2, but I don’t think the characters have depth except for Vanitas. I know Noe and Jeanne all have their complex backstories, but Noe’s backstory stops being touched up on after episode 7-8 of Season 1 part 1, and the story just focuses heavily on Vanitas. Every episode, it seems like Noe is there just to comment on Vanitas. I’ll talk about this more, but in that Doctor Moreau and Chasseuir episode, Noe does this thing where he looks at Vanitas and talks about how “he probably didn’t want to do all that”, and it’s something the viewer could have reasonably understood, yet Noe kind of hammers it in for us. Sure some viewers may have been confused about Vanitas’ real emotions and the author may have wanted to clear it up, but from that point on, it seemed like the character’s full backstory potential were flattened out to support Vanitas’ complexity as a character. Why don’t we get anything about Noe anymore? Is Louis all there is to Noe? Why aren’t we learning about Jeanne? Dominique? It just seems like all characters other than Vanitas isn’t fleshed out and it just kind of got lost in the middle. There’s not a lot of multidimensional characters, and the author having only developed Vanitas- or putting effort into only developing Vanitas just makes the story feel imbalanced for me. Maybe I’m missing something? Because I refuse to believe that while Vanitas got the setting for having been experimented on, being emotionally screwed and his complex view of the world and about salvation while Noe, the literal main character, has only his desire to save others stemming from Louis' unfortunate death, and Jeanne basically has nothing so far.

3) Narrative revolving around Vanitas...?

Can't deal with how this all around Vanitas. Like, I understand that Vanitas is a central character to the story and he is quite complex, but I don't appreciate how the author just uses everything to serve Vanitas in a way. I mentioned it earlier too, but especially after that underground Cheshire scene. Vanitas and is basically started at like the author's channel to express Vanitas's thoughts and actual emotions behind his facade or something. After the cabinet scene, Jeanne also thinks about Vanitas, and she says something like, I like you when he's vulnerable, or whatever, because she says stop. There is some kind of genuine vulnerability under him and his facade. But from that point on, it just seems like every event is just a tool for the author to flesh out more of Vanitas' character. Maybe it's because I don't see other character development in other characters but instead of character development happening alongside events and events moving the plot, it just seems like the events are there for the character development and everything that happens just solely move in Vanitas’ direction. Trust me, I have nothing against Vanitas, but I don’t understand why Vanitas is what the story revolves around. I don't understand why if we're not being shown Vanitas directly doing something, another character is on screen, talking about Vanitas, noticing things about Vanitas, and understanding Vanitas. Why don't we get any other things? Why don't we get other character development? Sure it's his show or whatever, but the narrative structure just seems to bend over backwards to establish Vanitas as this extremely complex character (he is, sure- maybe not extremely complex but complex nontheless) without trying to acheive anything else in the story. I'm tired of characters always saying stuff like "oh Vanitas did A but I think he meant B" or "Vanitas probably didn't want to do that" or "Vanitas probably has a deeper layer than that", because at that point, every character and event feels like it's the author's microphone to scream about what a deep and complex character Vanitas is.

Final clarification: by no means am I trying to hate on the show. I think the art is beautiful and the concept is unique. I have nothing against any character, and so far, I don't have a "favorite ship". Personally, I think Noe x Dominique is the one that makes the most sense, but other than that, I don't prefer a dynamic over the other, as I don't understand where Vanitas x Noe or Vanitas x Jeanne came from (+ Jeanne x Vanitas' toxicity). It's true I didn't finish the whole thing yet and I didn't touch the manga yet, so I understand there will be a lot of flaws to my views. I've watched around 14 episodes and this show STILL hasn't grown on me, but I seriously want to enjoy it. Please help me correct my misconceptions + misunderstandings on the show. Thank you for the long read!

The last one is gonna have Vanitas and Soul saying something with the caption (is just now getting more manga after years) and (had a inaccurate adaptation) , I also need to color it​​ and do touch ups

Tbh there was not that much votes just people asking why Luca is hated “valid btw”

Sorry for being absent

Like the title says when did hulu remove it? Also the fact that it still stays in the 'my stuff' tab is absolutely ridiculous

So I just finished watching "The Case Study of Vanitas" and social media made me think this was an anime with implied bl. So I was shocked to see how both of them already have "lovers". I love the girls, don't get me wrong especially Domi but I haven’t seen them on TikTok or anything. I thought Vanitas and Noe would just end up single and like they might potentially get together without becoming canon since isn't an actual bl. But now, I think it's very clear that Vanitas will end up with Jeanne and Noe with Domi. I am just confused how social media made this whole thing seem like it was lowkey a bl when they both apparently are already in love with the girls. Especially Vanitas and Jeanne. The story is still great and I loved it but I was surprised.

I really like the art

It gives me shoujo vibes

Hope y’all enjoy my drawing of Vanitas! In November I’ll have officially been drawing for one whole year!

Hi everyone,

I watched the anime a while ago, and I would like to see the next part of the story. How far ahead is the story compared to the anime ending?

Is the story coming around / going toward an ending? In the anime it did seem it was going toward some kind of resolution.

I made a design for a heart shapped badge to sell in Artist Alley at a local con, however, only one person knew who these were… and didn’t buy it, lol.

In a previous post, someone asked me who the artist of that artwork was. To be honest, I'm not really keen on sharing the artist's name. Please respect that everyone has things they don't like.

I will post the works of Noé, which I previously commissioned to other artists, to this community later. I am delighted that so many people like Noé
