**[00:11] ---**
Hello.
**[00:12] ---**
What's your name?
**[00:15] ---**
I'm Mikhail, but you can call me Misha!
**[00:19] ---**
Your name isn't Mikhail anymore.
**[00:23] ---**
It's Number 71!
**[00:26] ---**
We're nothing more
than Moreau's guinea pigs!
**[00:43] ---**
Ow!
**[02:11] ---**
"The Case Study of Vanitas"
**[02:19] ---**
--No!
**[02:20] ---**
--Doctor. The test subject is too young.
--No!
**[02:23] ---**
He won't survive much more.
**[02:25] ---**
Well, we can bring in
the next child in that case.
**[02:30] ---**
I'm so close to creating what I want.
**[02:35] ---**
Humans that can serve as a link!
**[02:42] ---**
Help me, big brother!
**[02:45] ---**
Help!
**[02:47] ---**
Big brother!
**[02:53] ---**
Doctor!
**[02:56] ---**
I will do it.
**[03:00] ---**
Use me instead of that little brat!
**[03:05] ---**
Doctor, let me help you
achieve your noble purpose!
**[03:14] ---**
How marvelous!
**[03:17] ---**
Has there ever been
a single child like you
**[03:20] ---**
who's willingly cooperated
in my experiments?!
**[03:23] ---**
No, there hasn't!
**[03:24] ---**
But of course, Number 69!
What a marvelous idea!
**[03:28] ---**
Together we shall draw one step closer
**[03:31] ---**
to the great wisdom of
the vampires and the world!
**[03:40] ---**
Thank you, big brother.
**[03:44] ---**
I was wondering if I could
sleep with you tonight.
**[03:55] ---**
You're so warm.
**[04:01] ---**
Ta-da!
**[04:04] ---**
My experiment has entered its final phase!
**[04:09] ---**
I'll use this to link you two
to *The Books of Vanitas*.
**[04:14] ---**
*The Books of Vanitas*?
**[04:16] ---**
Yes, that's an excellent
question, Number 69!
**[04:19] ---**
These books were created by
the Vampire of the Blue Moon!
**[04:24] ---**
But they're even more legendary
than that legendary vampire!
**[04:28] ---**
They're powered by
a special form of astermite.
**[04:30] ---**
They pack sorcery, alchemy, and many other
technologies into miniature machines.
**[04:35] ---**
They're analytical engines in book form!
**[04:39] ---**
Supposedly, one can use these books
**[04:43] ---**
to easily alter the World Formula!
**[04:45] ---**
Supposedly?
**[04:50] ---**
That's right! They won't open,
no matter how I try!
**[04:53] ---**
From what I've heard, only members
of the Blue Moon Clan can do that!
**[04:59] ---**
Isn't that awful?!
**[05:01] ---**
Isn't it so unfair!
**[05:07] ---**
And so...
**[05:10] ---**
I decided to transform you two into
quasi members of the Blue Moon Clan!
**[05:18] ---**
What?
**[05:19] ---**
I wish to make human switches,
**[05:21] ---**
their only purpose being
to open the books!
**[05:24] ---**
You know that blue fluid
I often inject you with?
**[05:28] ---**
Do you know what it is?
**[05:30] ---**
Tick.
**[05:31] ---**
Tick.
**[05:32] ---**
Tick.
**[05:33] ---**
Sorry, time's up! You lose!
**[05:37] ---**
Prepare to be amazed!
**[05:39] ---**
It's none other than
**[05:41] ---**
the Vampire of the Blue Moon's blood!
**[05:46] ---**
Oh, dear, what's wrong?
**[05:48] ---**
You're so startled,
you've been rendered speechless?!
**[05:51] ---**
I know how you feel!
**[05:54] ---**
Big brother?
**[05:55] ---**
To prevent a fatal rejection response,
**[05:57] ---**
I injected you ever so gradually
with the vampire's blood
**[06:01] ---**
along with special medicine.
**[06:07] ---**
Big brother!
**[06:09] ---**
Didn't you notice your wounds
have been healing faster than before?
**[06:14] ---**
You've been elevated one step
beyond human bounds!
**[06:18] ---**
You are now a very special kind of being!
**[06:21] ---**
I am going to kill you.
**[06:23] ---**
I have the two *Books of Vanitas*
and the two of you!
**[06:28] ---**
Perfect, don't you think?
**[06:37] ---**
No!
**[06:38] ---**
That hurts!
**[06:39] ---**
Stop it!
**[06:41] ---**
I'm going to kill you!
**[06:42] ---**
I swear I'll murder every last one of you!
**[06:46] ---**
How dare you do this to me?!
**[06:51] ---**
Oh, right, I forgot to mention one thing.
**[06:54] ---**
Once I activate this machine,
**[06:56] ---**
the shock of linking to the books
may turn you both into vegetables.
**[07:00] ---**
So let me express my
gratitude while I can.
**[07:03] ---**
Thank you, Numbers 69 and 71.
**[07:07] ---**
I will never forget you!
**[07:25] ---**
What's happening?!
**[07:31] ---**
What the blazes?!
**[07:54] ---**
Big brother!
**[08:01] ---**
Dear me.
**[08:03] ---**
Some humans come up
with the most ludicrous ideas.
**[08:12] ---**
Now then, I think I've done
quite enough damage.
**[08:17] ---**
I must go before the Chasseurs arrive.
**[08:22] ---**
No, don't go!
**[08:24] ---**
Take us with you!
**[08:30] ---**
Take us, too.
**[08:41] ---**
Oh, my.
**[08:46] ---**
Well, this wouldn't have
happened if not for me.
**[08:54] ---**
How could he be so cruel?
**[08:57] ---**
They are but children.
**[09:00] ---**
Mikhail.
**[09:02] ---**
Well, what will you do?
**[09:09] ---**
Will you, too...
**[09:12] ---**
...come with me?
**[09:20] ---**
Big brother.
**[09:48] ---**
We've gone far enough.
We should be safe for now.
**[09:52] ---**
We're still not that far from town.
**[09:56] ---**
The Chasseurs will be here before you--
**[09:58] ---**
No, they won't.
**[10:01] ---**
That researcher... Moreau, was it?
**[10:05] ---**
He was engaged in acts
banned by Church teachings.
**[10:11] ---**
When the Chasseur's come running
and find what he's done,
**[10:14] ---**
they will scramble to control
the damage rather than pursue us.
**[10:19] ---**
And most of the researchers that
were there have likely been slain.
**[10:26] ---**
Now that we're safe and sound,
I'd like for us to introduce ourselves.
**[10:31] ---**
--My name is Mikhail!
But you can call me Misha!
**[10:34] ---**
--Wait, Mikhail!
--My name is Mikhail!
But you can call me Misha!
**[10:36] ---**
Misha?
**[10:37] ---**
Yes?!
**[10:39] ---**
I regret to say I have no name
with which to introduce myself.
**[10:44] ---**
Or perhaps it would be best to say
**[10:46] ---**
I have yet no name
with which I'm satisfied.
**[11:02] ---**
I am the Vampire of the Blue Moon.
**[11:10] ---**
There are some who call me Vanitas.
**[11:16] ---**
You're beautiful.
**[11:20] ---**
The Vampire... of the Blue Moon?
**[11:29] ---**
Big brother?!
**[11:30] ---**
You went straight for my eyes.
**[11:33] ---**
I take it you were among the
children the Chasseurs were training.
**[11:37] ---**
Have you taken us away to devour us?!
**[11:42] ---**
Blue blood?
**[11:46] ---**
You're mistaken.
**[11:47] ---**
Then what?!
**[11:48] ---**
Have you come to reclaim your
blood that they injected into us?
**[11:54] ---**
I took you
**[11:56] ---**
because you asked for my help.
**[12:03] ---**
N-No. I never...
**[12:08] ---**
...asked...
**[12:11] ---**
Big brother!
**[12:12] ---**
Dear me.
**[12:27] ---**
My big brother's awake!
**[12:36] ---**
You need not worry.
**[12:39] ---**
This is the home of a human with
whom I've been long acquainted.
**[12:42] ---**
Don't be absurd.
**[12:45] ---**
Why would a vampire be
acquainted with a human?
**[12:50] ---**
It's not unheard of.
**[12:52] ---**
Those who come from a long line
of alchemists or sorcerers
**[12:55] ---**
have always had an affinity for
vampires rather than the Church.
**[13:01] ---**
Your exhaustion took a toll
once you let your guard down.
**[13:04] ---**
Were you not always braced to
defend Misha at a moment's notice?
**[13:09] ---**
But now, all you need do is rest.
**[13:16] ---**
I will sing you a lullaby
so you may better sleep.
**[13:20] ---**
I want to sing, too.
**[13:23] ---**
Very well.
**[13:25] ---**
What sorts of songs did
your mother sing to you?
**[13:30] ---**
What?
**[13:31] ---**
Hm? Oh...
**[13:34] ---**
You called out "Mother"
many times in your delirium.
**[13:40] ---**
That's a lie.
**[13:42] ---**
No, it's not.
**[13:44] ---**
Yes, it is.
**[13:46] ---**
There's no way I said that. After all...
**[13:50] ---**
My mother died when I was born.
**[13:54] ---**
I would never call for her.
I would never...
**[14:09] ---**
Big brother...
**[14:26] ---**
So then...
**[14:28] ---**
...you lived alone with your father?
**[14:34] ---**
It wasn't just the two of us.
**[14:37] ---**
There were others.
**[14:40] ---**
Others?
**[14:41] ---**
My father was born to a good family,
and he became a doctor.
**[14:46] ---**
But he abandoned them
after meeting my mother,
**[14:49] ---**
who was part of a traveling
show that came to town.
**[14:53] ---**
A bold move.
**[14:55] ---**
What's a traveling show?
**[14:57] ---**
It's like a circus.
**[15:00] ---**
It wasn't as respectable as that.
**[15:03] ---**
I got the feeling my father
didn't care for them too much.
**[15:08] ---**
We went to all sorts
of places with the show.
**[15:12] ---**
You don't say?
**[15:14] ---**
They told me I looked
a lot like my mother.
**[15:18] ---**
I see. Then she was a beauty.
**[15:21] ---**
I think so, too!
**[15:23] ---**
But she died because of me.
**[15:28] ---**
My father should have
hated me for that, but...
**[15:37] ---**
When the vampires attacked,
**[15:39] ---**
Father died protecting me!
**[15:43] ---**
Why?
**[15:44] ---**
I want to ask him that, but I can't.
**[15:47] ---**
I'll never know the answer.
**[15:55] ---**
Do you hate vampires?
**[15:57] ---**
Of course I do!
**[15:59] ---**
I want to wipe them
from the face of the earth!
**[16:01] ---**
I want to make this world clean again!
**[16:04] ---**
That's why I vowed to
live my life as a Chasseur!
**[16:08] ---**
I...
**[16:11] ---**
They often experimented on vampires
they brought to Moreau's lab.
**[16:18] ---**
At first, I felt they were
getting their just deserts.
**[16:21] ---**
But gradually,
**[16:23] ---**
I came to realize humans are
the most terrifying monsters of all.
**[16:32] ---**
Would it have not been easy for one
like you to escape from such a place?
**[16:39] ---**
So why did you stay?
**[16:42] ---**
Moreau led the Chasseurs to
believe that I had died in battle.
**[16:48] ---**
He killed a stranger and
passed his body off as mine.
**[16:52] ---**
And he told me he would simply
obtain another child if I left.
**[16:58] ---**
So I felt I had no choice
but to remain there.
**[17:09] ---**
I didn't want to think about any of it.
**[17:12] ---**
I didn't understand.
**[17:14] ---**
And I still don't.
**[17:17] ---**
What am I to do now?
**[17:22] ---**
I have learned something.
**[17:26] ---**
You are a truly kind child.
**[17:37] ---**
No, I'm not.
**[17:38] ---**
Yes, you are.
**[17:41] ---**
No, I'm not at all like that. I'm...
**[17:58] ---**
Big brother?
**[18:00] ---**
Forget what I said!
**[18:02] ---**
Forget every last word I said yesterday.
Wipe it clean from your brain!
**[18:08] ---**
Yesterday? From when to when?
**[18:12] ---**
From the moment we left the lab?
**[18:14] ---**
Or from the time you feverishly yelled,
"No, no, no!" while you cried?
**[18:19] ---**
Just forget it, already!
**[18:21] ---**
Oh, you're awake? Good timing.
**[18:24] ---**
I just finished making breakfast.
**[18:26] ---**
Breakfast? I'm starving!
**[18:32] ---**
Now, eat up! You need all
the nutrients you can get.
**[18:41] ---**
You really *are* trying
to kill us, aren't you?
**[18:44] ---**
Why would you say that?
**[18:46] ---**
What is this sludge-like toxic waste?!
**[18:49] ---**
It's called soup.
**[18:51] ---**
I added lots of medicinal herbs
so it would be good for you.
**[18:54] ---**
And I just freshly drew this milk.
**[18:58] ---**
Why is it all black and disgusting?!
**[19:01] ---**
And this room is filthy!
It's full of spider webs and rats!
**[19:04] ---**
I didn't notice yesterday.
**[19:06] ---**
But if you're staying in someone's home,
keep it clean! Unbelievable!
**[19:13] ---**
Fine. Do everything yourself.
**[19:15] ---**
Stop sulking, you big baby!
**[19:25] ---**
How's that?!
**[19:28] ---**
Yummy!
**[19:30] ---**
Oh my, I am utterly defeated.
**[19:33] ---**
You're a most magnificent child.
**[19:38] ---**
More, please!
**[19:43] ---**
There is no point hiding it.
**[19:47] ---**
You both will likely die before too long.
**[19:52] ---**
It may be in a month, six months,
**[19:55] ---**
or even five years from now. Who can say?
**[19:59] ---**
But that day will come.
**[20:04] ---**
Moreau's experiments have forced
your bodies beyond what is human.
**[20:08] ---**
You are now getting closer
to the race of vampires.
**[20:13] ---**
But your bodies waver
precariously on a razor's edge.
**[20:17] ---**
At any moment, the balance may tip,
and your current state
**[20:22] ---**
will be in unbearable conflict
with the natural order.
**[20:26] ---**
It is then that your bodies
will begin to break down.
**[20:32] ---**
Come with me if you
have nowhere else to turn.
**[20:37] ---**
Together we shall seek a way to save you.
**[20:49] ---**
Father, am I going to die?
**[20:53] ---**
There is one way to save you
that I have yet to mention.
**[20:59] ---**
I could make you members of my clan.
**[21:04] ---**
But that...
**[21:06] ---**
It's not something I wanted to resort to.
**[21:12] ---**
I want to join your clan, Father.
**[21:16] ---**
After all, it means the three of us
can be together forever, doesn't it?
**[21:22] ---**
I don't ever want to be
a member of your clan,
**[21:26] ---**
even if it meant dying tomorrow.
**[21:29] ---**
I want to continue being
human until the end.
**[21:45] ---**
You finally made it,
**[21:47] ---**
big brother!
**[21:57] ---**
What have you done to him?
**[21:59] ---**
**[22:01] ---**
**[22:02] ---**
"Blue Night"
**[23:37] ---**
"Tears like Rain"
