Practically Mochizuki explained that the process for creating the manga is completely analogous, and his assistants would travel to and from Tokyo to work on the manga every month with him. However, after consulting with Square Enix staff, Mochizuki decided that it was dangerous for his assistants to continue this journey, so they decided to put the manga on hold for now.

Manga: Vanitas no Carte Volume # 1

For his part, Mochizuki first launched the manga in Square Enix's Gangan Joker magazine in December 2015. Square Enix published the manga's seventh compiled book volume on October 21.

Synopsis:

Rumors revolving around The Book of Vanitas, a mechanical grimoire of dubious reputation, attract Noah, a young vampire seeking the salvation of his friend, Paris.

However, what awaits you in the City of Flowers is not long hours walking on the pavement or rummaging through dusty bookstores in search of the tome. Instead, his prey comes to him ... in the arms of a man who claims to be a vampire doctor! Pushed into a conflict that threatens peace between humans and vampires, will Noah jump to his luck with the curious and slightly unbalanced Vanitas and his quest to save vampires?
