The May 2023 issue of Square Enix’s Gangan Joker magazine has announced that Jun Mochizuki’s The Case Study of Vanitas manga will return from hiatus in the magazine’s next issue on May 22, 2023. The manga went on hiatus in June 2022.

The story of the manga is described as:

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. 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?

Mochizuki launched The Case Study of Vanitas in Gangan Joker magazine in December 2015. Yen Press has been publishing the manga simultaneously in English since its debut.
