An English language version of the original The Case Study of Vanitas manga is published in the United States by Yen Press, who describe the story of the series as follows:
Rumors revolving around The Book of Vanitas, a clockwork grimoire of dubious reputation, draw Noé, a young vampire in search of a friend’s salvation, to Paris. What awaits him in the City of Flowers, however, is not long hours treading the pavement or rifling through dusty bookshops in search of the tome. Instead, his quarry comes to him…in the arms of a man claiming to be a vampire doctor! Thrust into a conflict that threatens the peace between humans and vampires, will Noé cast in his lot with the curious and slightly unbalanced Vanitas and his quest to save vampirekind?
Additional details (such as more cast members and the broadcast schedule) for The Case Study of Vanitas TV anime will be revealed at a later date.
