The official Twitter account for The Case Study of Vanitas has announced that Part 2 of the anime is coming in the winter 2022 anime season.
The Case Study of Vanitas is based on the manga by Jun Mochizuki, the creator of Pandora Hearts. The anime adaption is being handled by Studio Bones, best known for My Hero Academia, with Tomoyuki Itamura (Nisemonogatari) handling directing. Rie Kugimiya, the voice of Happy in Fairy Tail, will be joining the second half of the season as a new character named Chloe.

“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,” reads the official description of The Case Study of Vanitas. “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?”
The supernatural Victorian anime premiered earlier this year on Funimation, which currently has all 12 episodes subbed and the first five dubbed.
