[00:02] ---
    Yes?
[00:04] ---
    A letter arrived for you, Monsieur Noé.
[00:06] ---
    For me?
[00:08] ---
    It was left at the front desk.
[00:21] ---
    I'm waiting for you
    with Mademoiselle Domi!
[01:48] ---
    "The Case Study of Vanitas"
[02:00] ---
    Let me introduce you, Noé.
[02:03] ---
    These are my darling grandchildren,
[02:05] ---
    Louis and his little sister, Dominique.
[02:08] ---
    N-Nice to meet you.
[02:29] ---
    Dominique, I have a favor to ask.
[02:32] ---
    I want you to give this
    to Noé when the time comes.
[02:37] ---
    Louis?
[02:39] ---
    You really are
[02:41] ---
    just like me.
[02:47] ---
    Domi?
[02:48] ---
    Noé!
[02:49] ---
    What's wrong?
[02:50] ---
    Mina is...
[02:51] ---
    Mina is to be executed tomorrow?
[02:56] ---
    But why?
[02:58] ---
    Why? Because she's a curse-bearer.
[03:02] ---
    A curse-bearer?
[03:04] ---
    They are beheaded by a bourreau.
    That's the custom.
[03:09] ---
    Noé, I want to save Mina, too.
[03:13] ---
    Might we not help her flee the village?
[03:23] ---
    Mina.
[03:31] ---
    Domi, Noé.
[03:35] ---
    Blood. I want blood.
[03:39] ---
    Blood! Give me blood!
[03:42] ---
    Domi, run.
[03:44] ---
    Noé?
[03:46] ---
    Louis, snap out of it!
[03:48] ---
    What's the matter?
[03:51] ---
    Kill me. I want you to kill me.
[03:56] ---
    If I'm doomed to die, Noé...
[03:58] ---
    If I'm doomed to die, I want you to...
[04:03] ---
    ...kill me!
[04:06] ---
    I can't... Louis.
[04:24] ---
    Louis said he wanted you to
    have this when the time came.
[04:29] ---
    He told me to keep it till then.
[04:39] ---
    Wooden stakes?
[04:42] ---
    Noé!
[04:52] ---
    Forgive me, Noé.
[05:03] ---
    What shall I do?
[05:05] ---
    Grandfather says it is likely
    a psychological condition.
[05:09] ---
    Whatever shall I do?
[05:12] ---
    He hasn't opened his eyes for two days.
[05:15] ---
    What am I to do if he
    never opens them again?
[05:19] ---
    What am I to do?!
[05:21] ---
    If only...
[05:23] ---
    If only I hadn't gone to see Noé that day.
[05:26] ---
    If I had handled it myself...
[05:29] ---
    If only I had let go of Mina,
[05:32] ---
    perhaps that terrible slaughter
    would have never occurred.
[05:37] ---
    At the very least, Noé wouldn't have
    seen Louis beheaded right before his eyes.
[05:42] ---
    Domi?
[05:44] ---
    Veronica?!
[05:46] ---
    I came all this way to fetch you
    after you never came home.
[05:52] ---
    This place is as dirty and dusty as ever.
[05:55] ---
    Now, get ready to leave.
[05:57] ---
    N-No!
[06:03] ---
    He ended up like this because of me.
[06:06] ---
    I cannot simply abandon him.
[06:10] ---
    Your little brother... Louis is dead.
[06:14] ---
    Don't you feel anything, dear sister?
[06:16] ---
    First of all, I do not
    have a little brother.
[06:21] ---
    Moreover, he should have
    been slain the day he was born.
[06:26] ---
    You should be thankful he
    was allowed to live this long.
[06:33] ---
    Whatever are you talking about?
[06:38] ---
    What?! Surely you jest, Domi!
[06:40] ---
    Are you telling me you did not know?!
[06:44] ---
    Did you truly believe he was hidden
    from the world because he was ill?
[06:49] ---
    No! You are sorely mistaken!
[06:52] ---
    You truly are a fool!
[06:54] ---
    He was hidden away because
[06:58] ---
    he was your twin!
[07:02] ---
    What?
[07:03] ---
    My twin?
[07:05] ---
    Surely even you must know?
[07:08] ---
    Twins? Louis and I?
[07:10] ---
    Twins are said to rob the womb
    of far more life than one child.
[07:14] ---
    In the vampire world,
    they are a symbol of misfortune.
[07:17] ---
    I thought Louis was a year older than me.
[07:21] ---
    Should anyone learn
    your mother bore twins,
[07:24] ---
    it would tarnish the
    good name of House de Sade.
[07:27] ---
    That's why they chose but one of you.
[07:32] ---
    In truth, one of you should
    have been slain at birth.
[07:35] ---
    But out of the blue, Grandfather said,
    "That would be a waste. I shall take him."
[07:40] ---
    That's when he took Louis away.
[07:43] ---
    Even Father cannot defy Grandfather.
[07:47] ---
    He did say that there was
    something he wished to try.
[07:51] ---
    Why?
[07:53] ---
    Why did they choose me?
[07:58] ---
    I wonder.
[08:00] ---
    Knowing Father, I imagine he decided
    based on how he felt at the time.
[08:06] ---
    Then again, I have no time to waste
    thinking of a little brother I never had.
[08:12] ---
    But if he had been chosen over you,
[08:15] ---
    I wonder if he would have lived up to
    our expectations more than you have.
[08:24] ---
    Louis.
[08:26] ---
    Did he know about this?
[08:32] ---
    Louis.
[08:33] ---
    I wish I could live here all the time.
[08:38] ---
    I envy you, Louis.
[08:43] ---
    How could I have said
    something so awful to him?
[08:51] ---
    Noe, are you all right?!
    Do you know who I am?!
[08:56] ---
    Noé!
[08:59] ---
    Noé!
[09:01] ---
    Louis!
[09:03] ---
    Thank goodness.
[09:05] ---
    I dreamt that you had died.
[09:09] ---
    Thank goodness, Louis.
[09:13] ---
    It really was just a dream.
[09:23] ---
    Noé.
[09:26] ---
    Noe, do you, too,
    wish Louis had been chosen?
[09:36] ---
    Do you wish that
[09:39] ---
    Louis lived instead of me?
[09:56] ---
    You poor thing.
[09:57] ---
    How about calling off the search?
[10:00] ---
    I'll keep looking a bit longer.
[10:02] ---
    Why are you so concerned
    about the Hellfire Witch?
[10:08] ---
    Isn't it in your best interest for
    those two to become an item?
[10:13] ---
    Wh-What are you talking about?
[10:20] ---
    I'm sorry. Are you all right?
[10:22] ---
    Well, if you'll excuse me,
    Mademoiselle Dominique.
[10:27] ---
    Oh, so your name is Dominique.
[10:33] ---
    Mikhail!
[10:35] ---
    That's my name!
[10:40] ---
    Huh? Are you crying, mademoiselle?
[10:45] ---
    You poor thing.
[10:47] ---
    Huh?
[10:49] ---
    I pity you, mademoiselle.
[11:01] ---
    I wish it was I who became a curse-bearer.
[11:05] ---
    I wish it was I who was beheaded.
[11:10] ---
    I wish it was Louis
[11:12] ---
    who was now by Noé's side.
[11:18] ---
    Why was it not me?
[11:21] ---
    I should have died.
[11:24] ---
    If I had died...
[11:29] ---
    Please forgive me, Noé.
[11:33] ---
    There, there.
[11:35] ---
    There, there. Don't cry, mademoiselle.
[11:39] ---
    I'm sure your prince will
    come for you before long.
[11:43] ---
    Then the tragic princess
    will find happiness,
[11:48] ---
    and we can return to
    our families once more.
[11:52] ---
    Isn't that right, mademoiselle?
[11:55] ---
    Vanitas! I finally found you!
[11:57] ---
    Amelia?
[11:58] ---
    It's Monsieur Noé!
    Something terrible has happened!
[12:20] ---
    I bid you welcome!
[12:22] ---
    Thank you for coming, Monsieur Noé!
[12:27] ---
    --I am--
[12:28] ---
    --Where is Domi?!
    --I am--
[12:29] ---
    Oh my!
[12:35] ---
    An automaton?
[12:38] ---
    Mikhail?
[12:40] ---
    Did the letter truly bear that name?
[12:45] ---
    He's alive?
[12:48] ---
    This is bad.
[12:53] ---
    Stay away from him!
[12:55] ---
    He is...
[13:01] ---
    We didn't even introduce ourselves.
[13:04] ---
    You're quite hasty, aren't you?
[13:09] ---
    A cover of blue leather,
    pages as black as night,
[13:13] ---
    a clockwork grimoire
    linked to a silver chain...
[13:17] ---
    Let's try that again. I am Mikhail.
[13:21] ---
    Only this book was passed down to me
    by the Vampire of the Blue Moon.
[13:26] ---
    Yet I'm but a human!
[13:33] ---
    There is another Book of Vanitas?
[13:39] ---
    Just kidding. I was
    channeling my big brother!
[13:44] ---
    Of course, you know who
    that is, right, Monsieur Noé?
[13:48] ---
    My big brother is the
    one you all call Vanitas.
[13:53] ---
    You told Mademoiselle Domi
    what my brother said to you.
[13:58] ---
    And then Mademoiselle Domi told me.
[14:02] ---
    But all these monsieurs and
    mademoiselles are getting tedious.
[14:05] ---
    Shall we drop them?
[14:07] ---
    Hasn't my big brother
    told you anything about me?
[14:11] ---
    You know, like, "I have
    a darling little brother."
[14:13] ---
    Or did he mention Number 71?
[14:16] ---
    How is Number 71 doing?
[14:20] ---
    You're 71?!
[14:21] ---
    I came here today to ask you a favor, Noé.
[14:30] ---
    Domi!
[14:32] ---
    She won't hesitate to jump
    if anyone lays a finger on me.
[14:37] ---
    Why's he doing this?
[14:39] ---
    You don't want that, do you?
[14:41] ---
    I don't, either.
[14:42] ---
    Don't tell me...
[14:43] ---
    Mademoiselle Domi is so kind. I'd hate
    to see her splatter on the ground.
[14:48] ---
    Did he do something to her true name?
[14:51] ---
    So, I want you to suck my brother's blood.
[14:55] ---
    What?
[14:56] ---
    There's something I simply must know.
[15:00] ---
    I need to know why my
    brother killed Father that day.
[15:05] ---
    But he never will tell me when I ask.
[15:11] ---
    So I'd like you to take a peek for me.
[15:16] ---
    You're good at that
    sort of thing, aren't you?
[15:20] ---
    Sink your fangs into his pale skin, Noé.
[15:26] ---
    Lay bare that memory in Vanitas's blood.
[15:29] ---
    Dominique's missing?!
[15:31] ---
    Indeed she is. She failed
    to report for duty at the castle.
[15:36] ---
    A messenger was sent to
    Marquis de Sade's manor,
[15:39] ---
    but it's been three days since anyone saw
    her at the main residence or the villa.
[15:45] ---
    Being that she is of House de Sade,
    we cannot rule out capricious action.
[15:50] ---
    Dominique would never do such a thing!
[15:52] ---
    She has never once
    neglected her royal guard duty.
[15:57] ---
    Three days ago? That's when we last met.
[16:00] ---
    Did something happen after that?
[16:02] ---
    Jeanne.
[16:04] ---
    May I ask you a favor?
[16:14] ---
    I don't understand.
[16:17] ---
    This person you call "Father."
[16:22] ---
    Are you saying Vanitas killed him?
[16:27] ---
    Huh? Wait a moment.
[16:31] ---
    Oh, right...
[16:36] ---
    Sorry. I was a bit startled by that.
[16:39] ---
    It seems I jumped to conclusions.
[16:43] ---
    After all this time together...
[16:47] ---
    ...you don't know a thing
    about my brother, do you, Noé?
[16:53] ---
    Now I see.
[16:55] ---
    Telling you to suck my brother's
    blood has thrown you for a loop.
[17:01] ---
    I know!
[17:14] ---
    Instead of his blood,
    help yourself to mine.
[17:22] ---
    First, I'll use my blood to
    tell you all about my brother.
[17:27] ---
    Well, come on.
[17:31] ---
    I'll catch cold if you don't hurry.
[17:33] ---
    And mademoiselle will, too.
[17:39] ---
    Domi.
[17:41] ---
    Domi. What happened to your hair?
[17:45] ---
    Why would you...?
[17:47] ---
    This? I cut it off
    because it was in the way.
[17:51] ---
    Does it suit me, Noé?
[18:06] ---
    I must do all I can to protect Domi.
[18:09] ---
    Even if...
[18:11] ---
    ...it costs me my life.
[18:16] ---
    It's time, Noé.
[18:43] ---
    She, or should I say,
    he is the child who survived?
[18:47] ---
    Yes, he was found hiding under a bed.
[18:50] ---
    The Church took him into its care.
[18:52] ---
    His mother was a prostitute.
[18:55] ---
    Why'd she dress him like a girl?
[18:57] ---
    It seems she was offering
    the child to her best customers.
[19:13] ---
    You must not go in there.
[19:15] ---
    You'll never find your way out once
    you enter the underground level.
[19:18] ---
    It's a scary maze down there.
[19:22] ---
    A mummy! It's alive!
[19:25] ---
    Huh?
[19:27] ---
    I'm going to eat you!
[19:33] ---
    Monsieur?
[19:35] ---
    Yes?
[19:36] ---
    When can I go home?
[19:40] ---
    You have a new home starting from today.
[19:45] ---
    I hear that there are lots
    of children your age there.
[19:49] ---
    I'm sure you'll make new friends.
[19:52] ---
    I don't understand.
[19:53] ---
    You'll see.
[19:57] ---
    Monsieur?
[19:58] ---
    Yes?
[20:00] ---
    Why did they have to kill that vampire?
[20:05] ---
    That vampire killed your mother.
[20:10] ---
    No, he saved her!
[20:15] ---
    My mother made a really
    scary face when she would hit me.
[20:20] ---
    But I knew better.
[20:23] ---
    She only did that when the
    demon inside her was being bad.
[20:28] ---
    She was also mad
[20:31] ---
    the whole time the vampire was there.
[20:35] ---
    But after that, her kind
    face slowly returned.
[20:40] ---
    My mother was really pretty!
[20:45] ---
    I bet that vampire got rid
    of the demon inside her!
[20:52] ---
    Dear God...
[20:54] ---
    What's wrong, monsieur?
[20:56] ---
    You poor child.
[20:58] ---
    The vampires have already led you astray.
[21:02] ---
    O Lord, I beseech you!
    Please forgive this child!
[21:08] ---
    O Lord!
[21:09] ---
    Roland!
[21:11] ---
    I told you!
    You must rest until you're well!
[21:15] ---
    --Wait! I'm helping this child!
    --Don't sneak out of your room!
[21:21] ---
    Yes, but the child you procured for me
    last time broke almost immediately.
[21:28] ---
    And just when I was
    hoping for a replacement,
[21:31] ---
    I found this one in
    the most convenient place!
[21:34] ---
    There's no need to worry!
[21:38] ---
    They're scrambling to deal
    with that prostitute's murder.
[21:41] ---
    If a child in their care goes missing,
[21:44] ---
    they'll chalk it up to a runaway
    and leave it at that.
[21:48] ---
    The child's awakened!
[21:50] ---
    All right, I'll have you
    look after this one!
[21:55] ---
    I'm counting on you,
[21:58] ---
    Number 69!
