Vanitas (voiced in Japanese by Natsuki Hanae and in English by Zeno Robinson) is the titular protagonist of the anime/manga series The Case Study of Vanitas.

He proclaims himself as a medical specialist in regards to vampires, and uses his 'Book of Vanitas' to cure the Malnomen curse that said vampires have fallen under. During his journeys he is joined by Noé, a vampire who he then recruits into helping with the researching of various Malnomen cases and the following treatment of them.

Vanitas has black hair that he wears in a long, low ponytail, and very vibrant blue eyes. He wears several earrings, mostly around the shell of his ear, as well as a gold and blue dangling hourglass and gem on his left ear. His under outfit consists of a two-toned blue vest over a white button-up shirt that he wears with the collar flared up, and a giant light blue bowtie around it. Around his waist he wears a holster for his knives and the book, with an enormous bluey-white ribbon underneath for padding, and then just a simple pair of black pants with a pair of black and white spat boots. His gloves are very long to cover the markings on his hand, and the nails are extremely sharp. Over top of everything he wears a very oversized, billowing black coat with a blue lining on the inside.
