"Noé" being the name of the biblical savior of all life.
"Vanitas" meaning vanity, futility, something that is ultimately meaningless and doesn't last. I am unwell.
#there is also this interesting thing going on where their dynamic clearly represents the conflict between selfishness and selflessness#but vanitas ends up being the successful savior despite doing it for his own benefit#while noé fails to save the people he actually cares about time and time again#I'm very curious about how they're gonna handle the theme of salvation and what it really means#I think it's implied that killing vanitas would be an act of salvation for him#when his formula gets rewritten to the point he's no longer himself#but chloe d'apchier's storyline seems to kind of contradict the notion that death is the answer and a perfect escape#and with how vanitas views himself as a lost cause already... wouldn't it be nice if they kind of turned it around#like no. you don't get to die. you need to life and that's harder#because I think showing a character who doesn't see a future for themselves and has given up on hope#be forced to confront the fact that that's not the case at all. that there is in fact hope for them#would be more interesting that simply proving them right#<<me delusional about a character that's clearly doomed by the narrative#vnc#the case study of vanitas#moje
