The Case Study of Vanitas Chapter 64: Manga Announces 2-Month Break; Here’s Why

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for the creative and a deep appreciation for the struggles artists face, I can’t help but empathize with Jun Mochizuki, the talented mangaka behind The Case Study of Vanitas. Having spent years in the industry myself, I understand the dedication, passion, and sheer hard work that goes into each page of a manga.


Due to the creator’s (Jun Mochizuki) poor health, the official account for Monthly Gangan Joker magazine, which was previously Twitter, has shared that the Manga series The Case Study of Vanitas will take a two-month break. You can expect the manga’s next chapter to resume in October 2024.

The announcement included a message from the mangaka and mentioned possible unexpected pauses in the release schedule. In fact, Jun Mochizuki, creator of ‘Pandora Hearts’, expressed her apologies to the manga’s readers for the delay. She disclosed that she has been grappling with severe health issues, both physical and mental, which have negatively impacted the progress of the manga.

The manga artist confessed that it’s disheartening to find herself unable to produce manga at her previous speed, but she’s optimistic about discovering a unique style that is distinctly hers. She remains dedicated to her project and acknowledges that it may require more time, yet her passion for the series has not waned.

As a devoted follower of this captivating manga, I’ve grown accustomed to the occasional waits we’ve experienced. Previously, the creators announced a pause starting from May 2024. The recent update, unfortunately, extends that break even further. Currently, we’re up to just 21 chapters as of 2024. In her official statement, the mangaka expressed her sincere apologies and shared her intentions for a balanced series, allowing herself time to unwind and recharge between creative spurts.

At present, Mochizuki is joyfully planning for my 20th year as an artist, but I can’t help feeling a mysterious fury about the drastic changes in weather, temperature, and atmospheric pressure. In the meantime, she hopes that fans will keep on appreciating her manga even without new stories.

The comic book series “The Case Study of Vanitas” is based in 19th-century Paris and chronicles the journey of the vampire Noe Archiviste, who seeks to cure cursed vampires. This manga was greatly influenced by the creator’s initial trip to France and classic vampire movies. Keep an eye out for the upcoming developments on “The Case Study of Vanitas”!
