In light of the release of Delico's Nursery, here's a repost of my favourite promotional photo for the stageplay that the anime serves as a sequel to.

[otakebi-cam-wao]

Is there a specific order to watch/read the content? Do you know it?

i guess this is about True of vamp

tbf, i go on my own way, like "i want to watch this" and watch it, but i guess you could on release order, chronological is a bit hard to get as there are stage plays still being released, and not all text content has been translated

roughly i'd say chronologically (stageplays) is

Marionet Hotel

Specter

Grand Guignol

COCOON (manga soon)

Trump (there's a manga)

Marigold

Nirin Zaki

Lilium

Kuro Sekai

I don't remember rn where does Verachicca fits, and this is a rough chronological order made by an slightly tipsy me, so idk now

But i guess is better to watch them by release order, and then the stories

[rimanne]

delico's nursery writers are SO cruel for these shots...

[thennudeknight]

i'm very delulu about this, cause- GUYS SHE IS THE ACTUAL WIFE FR I TELL U I been getting more and more into the fandom (everything TRUE OF VAMP i'm on it) so i made an OC and made her the wife of Dino (i post more stuff of this on twitter and other places) yeah :D

[otakebi-cam-wao]

It definitely ended in the best way for the series

And ofc i cannot recommend more to watch the stageplays, specially TRUMP now (but well, there's the manga so, if you don't want 2 hrs of a stage play, you have 30 manga chapters)

and COCOON will also be adapted to a manga format

I will add to watch Grand Guignol obviously!

Delico's Nursery really ended on a hopeful note with lots of foreshadowing. It made me emotional because the continuation of this story is literally tragic stageplays. I'm thankful they gave us a "What if they survived" scenario even if its painful to watch a dream that will never happen.

I really recommend to watch or read the TRUMP main story after this then COCOON for deeper dive of what actually transpired in the main story. It has both manga and stageplays.

very slight TRUMP stageplay + manga spoilers !!

crashing out over this pic of them so bad. I have so much to say.

THE WAY SOPHIE LOOKS AT UL …

He is sort of looking up, right at Ul. his head is tilted, specifically angled so that his face comes parallel to Ul’s and he can look at him better/directly. but during the rest of Sophie’s life before he met Ul, he was always looking down/away from other people, in the sense that he was always keeping to himself because he didn’t like anyone around him. but he’s looking at Ul.

and in the manga Sophie makes a point of not actually wanting a friend, he doesn’t want to get close to anyone, but in this picture his hand placement looks like he might be about to reach for Ul’s hair, like he might be almost taking that step to get closer to Ul.

meanwhile Ul looks so relaxed, his eyes are closed, both hands in frame which makes him look so unguarded. it says so much to me that he’s like this around Sophie, something he couldn’t do with any of his other friends because he had to hide how he’s a dhampir from them.

maybe Ul feels safe around Sophie because Sophie is someone who wouldn’t hate him for what he is or want him to hide it, unlike how his family seemingly hated dhampirs (especially because/even though he was one) and wanted him to hide his own dhampirism.

- or there’s also just the fact that his closed eyes are foreshadowing his death. maybe he’s not looking at Sophie despite his whole thing being that he is always looking at Sophie. because he was always looking for, in Sophie, something that Sophie did not have (a desire to overcome what he is, or any sort of hope that would validate Ul when no one else would).

DISCLAIMER: all I’m saying is in the process of drawing, Decisions were made to give them these specific demeanors/expressions/hand placements etc. I do not know exactly how much thought was put into those decisions but I know it always gets worse the more you think about it anyway 💔

when ul said ‘oh god there is a miracle standing in front of me’ to/about sophie and sophie looks at ul the same way ul spoke about him. I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE

Delico's Nursery: Kids (TVC Headcanon)

Ok, so the cast from the new anime Delico's Nursey was clearly loosely inspired by Interview with the Vampire/The Vampire Chronicles' main characters, Louis, Lestat, Armand, and Marius.

But what about their children?

Until we're told otherwise, here's my current headcanon:

Dali Delico / Louis de Pointe du Lac:

Raphael: Rose Fisher (genderswapped) -- Raph witnessed his mom's murder, and I wonder what PTSD that will give him. Raph's very jealous of how much attention Ul gets, and it made me think of how drastically different Rose & Viktor's upbringing was. Rose/Raph had deeply traumatic childhoods, before Louis/Dali swooped in and saved their life. (Yes, Lestat did that first, but Rose would've died in that boarding school if Louis hadn't rescued her. Les couldn't even get to her until days later, after Dr. Fareed had already hospitalized her.)

Ul: Viktor Gilman de Lioncourt -- I'm literally projecting my wish that we'd seen Viktor grow up. But maybe AR skipped over it cuz he lived in a bubble all his life, secluded & protected by Dr. Flannery & Dr. Fareed. So there's really not much to Viktor, beyond being a son from a vitally important bloodline, who needs protecting--like we'd see when Rhoshamandes kidnapped him. In the timeskipped Trump stageplay, Ul grows up & wants to become an immortal vampire to protect those he loves, just like Viktor. In Grand Guignol stageplay, we learn that Ul's a dhamphir (halfbreed), just like Viktor's a strange genetic clone of the vampire Lestat.

Gerard Fra / Lestat de Lioncourt:

Angelico: Claudia (genderswapped) -- He looks like a spoiled brat, but seems to desperately want his dad's attention/affection, only to get brutally shot down. I hope for Gerard's sake that he eases up on Angie & stops perpetuating cycles of abuse/neglect, b4 Angie grows up to resent/hate him. Cuz we see how that turned out with Lestat & Claudia.... 😬💀 (The one thing giving me Viktor vibes is that Raph & Angie are the same age & are bffs. But Rose's literally Claudia 2.0, so...?)

Henrique Lorca / Armand:

Lucia: Sybelle / Mekare (?) The older & quiet twin.

Elena: Benji (genderswapped) / Maharet (?) The younger twin.

(They seem to be anime-onlies, not appearing in the stageplays?)

Dino Classico / Marius de Romanus:

Theodore: Pandora (genderswapped) Oldest of all the kids/fledglings. (Seems to be an anime-only, not appearing in the stageplays?)

More Things I’d Like In A(n) (im)Possible Season 3

A continuation of this post from last week.

Under the cut due to being ridiculously long. Also contains major spoilers for AJ:AA and minor spoilers for Spirit of Justice.

So, in Turnabout Stageplay, Apollo is arrested because he supposedly stole an important prop for an upcoming school play (even though we know the real culprit is actually a kleptomaniac bully named Lars Enie). During the night that he spends in solitary confinement, he has a nightmare of the night his father died and wakes up feeling nauseous. The guard on night shift feels really bad because Polly is only a little kid, and offers to take him to the washroom so Apollo doesn’t decorate the walls of his cell with his lunch. After that, the guard decides to help Apollo feel better by having him listen to some music. Polly chooses “The Guitar’s Serenade” because he’s a huge fan of Lamiroir’s music and it helps lull him to sleep during a rather difficult night

The next morning, Phoenix learns of the theft that happened and decides to pay Apollo a visit to learn more about what happened. Apollo is a little sleepy at first due to his rough night, so his vision is somewhat blurry and he simply mumbles, but as soon as he sees the lawyer in the blue suit sitting on the opposite side of the glass window, his sleepiness immediately vanishes because...it’s his idol, the legendary Phoenix Wright!!

Apollo: Are you Phoenix Wright? The legendary blue lawyer?

Phoenix: (Legendary? Since when was I legendary?) Uh, yeah. That’s me.

Apollo: I KNEW IT!! I can’t believe it! Me, sitting before the famous defense attorney! It’s like...it’s like... It’s like a dream come true!

Phoenix: Ahahaha... I see...

Apollo is so freaking excited to meet his idol in person that he lists down all the cases that he had been keeping track of, starting with the very trial when Phoenix cross-examined a parrot to figure out the unsolved DL-6 case and expose Manfred von Karma as the real killer of Gregory Edgeworth (in Turnabout Goodbyes). Phoenix is embarrassed by the notion that someone had been keeping track of all his cases, but also pleased to hear that he has a fan in the form of this 15-year-old teen

This kind of excitement is also why Apollo doesn’t hesitate to hire Phoenix as his lawyer for tomorrow’s trial. After all, Nick’s his idol and Polly wants to see for himself just what kind of a defense attorney he really is with his own eyes

Apollo: Please defend me in court tomorrow, Mr. Wright!

Phoenix: Alright then. If you say so. After all, I’d hate to see a fan of mine get the wrong verdict. (Wow, that happened fast...)

Apollo: Then it’s settled! You go and gather whatever evidence you need to prove my innocence. Oh, and don’t worry about me! My Chords of Steel and I will make sure you get the best, most honest possible testimony from us!

Phoenix: (...Chords of what?)

Nick is just completely baffled that Apollo would be so quick to trust him at first, but he then notes the look in Apollo’s eyes and thinks about the way they burn fiercely with determination...a look that reminds him of his old mentor, the late Mia Fey

Come the day of the trial, Apollo is surprised (and slightly disappointed) that Phoenix appointed Kristoph Gavin as Apollo’s defense attorney, but Nick reassures him and he’ll still defend him as Kristoph’s co-counsel

Apollo turns out to be a reliable client, and is able to debunk his own accusations by presenting his class schedule as evidence. The school play was part of the theater class, which Polly never took (he instead has a music class). It’s decisive evidence that helps Nick and Kristoph identify the real culprit as Lars Enie and nets Apollo a “Not Guilty” verdict

In the 2019 segment of Turnabout Succession, Apollo decides to take the day off by going to the courthouse library so he can study law and become a lawyer like Phoenix one day, like the little nerd/idol he is. Clay just tags along with him because, well, there’s no way he’s letting his best friend out of his sight

Along the way to the library, the boys stop at the defendant lobby where Zak Gramarye’s trial is being held. Apollo forgets about the library and decides to instead sneak in the courtroom through the gallery so he can see the trial taking place. Clay just puts duct tape over Apollo’s mouth because Apollo has NO INDOOR VOICE and Clay doesn’t want to take any chances and risk getting the both of them thrown out

Apollo: ?????????????? (Duct tape?! Clay, what the hell?!)

Clay: Sorry, Apollo, but this is for your own good. You’ll thank me later.

Apollo: (But...but...but my Chords of Steel! I-I thought you liked them!)

So the two of them are just sitting in the courtroom watching the trial go by. Well, Clay is; Apollo’s just trying to scratch a little bit of the stupid duct tape off of his mouth. He finally rips the duct tape off just in time to witness the judge calling out Phoenix for presenting the missing page from Magnifi’s diary, which was forged evidence. Apollo wants to say that Nick didn’t realize the evidence was forged, but he is so stunned by this revelation that he is at a complete loss of words. It’s only when Zak performs his disappearing trick that he screeches a huge “WHAT?!” This attracts the attention of the bailiff and they attempt to throw the boys out. The bailiff manage to capture Clay, but he distracts them long enough for Apollo to make his escape (he gets to the courtroom library and stays until the bailiff give up)

A little while after, Apollo spots Phoenix leaving the courthouse and manages to catch up to him. Phoenix isn’t interested in small talk, but Polly knows that it wasn’t Nick’s fault for presenting the forged evidence

Apollo: The Phoenix Wright I know would NEVER present forged evidence! You just...didn’t know, is all.

Apollo decides to come clean by admitting to Phoenix that his reason for becoming a defense attorney was to study what the law was so that he may one day meet his idol in court and find the truth together. Maybe they would’ve been able to find out who really was behind the murder of Magnifi Gramarye

Phoenix: It’s too late now. I’ve made a mistake...one that has cost me my entire career. And it’s a price I must pay.

Phoenix again attempts to talk out of it when Apollo suddenly recites the motto and gesture displayed by members of the Defiant Dragons: “A dragon never yields.” Nick is so confused over what is running through this boy’s mind, whether he’s that ditzy or just a little naive, but deep down he knows that Apollo’s heart burns fiercely with determination...a fire that, Phoenix thinks, won’t let anything try to extinguish it

The 2019 segment of Turnabout Succession ends with the events taking place seven years later and gradually leading up to Turnabout Trump. Phoenix, now a hobo, visits Kristoph Gavin’s law firm, reminiscing about the trial the two men had worked on together. Upon entering it, he meets Kristoph alongside Apollo, now a rookie defense attorney. Upon recognizing the bracelet around Apollo’s wrist, Phoenix decides to arrange a meeting with Zak Gramarye, now known as Shadi Smith, at the Borscht Bowl Club. Nick and Shadi discuss past events that transpired with Troupe Gramarye, including the accident that “claimed” the life of Thalassa Gramarye. It is revealed that Apollo - who was thought to have grown up as an orphan - is actually Thalassa’s long-lost son, and that he has a half-sister in the form of Phoenix’s adopted daughter Trucy Wright (née Trucy Enigmar due to Shadi being her biological father). While Phoenix muses on this revelation having no connection to what Apollo had said to him seven years ago, he does deduce that it could be the reason why he now wears one of his mother’s bracelets

Everything else is pretty much how it goes with the games, except the 2026 segment of Turnabout Succession is referred to as Turnabout Succession Returns

Listen, if the anime made Turnabout Big Top bearable, then it can make Turnabout Serenade just as good, maybe even better than the mess that it was in the games

That’s all for now! I may add another one if I get any more ideas.

New visual for the Delico's Nursery anime released!

Animation done by JC Staff.

[otakebi-cam-wao]

What's the most linear way I can learn about the whole of True of Vamp lore? I'm HEAVILY interested but there's so much I don't know or how to get (like the plays, which servers I can join, etc.) I'm completely at a loss

Help would be greatly appreciated 😞🙏

Thank you in advance!!

well on the True of Vamp fan site you can literally find a timeline with EVERYTHING (spoilers tho)

there you can also get a list of the stage plays, links to their subtitles (lilium 2014 and nirin zaki are a bit more complex to get tho) and 2 short stories translations (for now)

apparently there's a Delico's Nursery discord server where i could find one fellow True of vamp years long fan and many are getting into the whole series, and I'm on another server that has some years already (tho i guess i must ask if I'm allowed to share that both, specifically the 2nd one, publicly)

Now, personally, due to life reasons, I haven't seen all the stage plays yet (even tho I'm a fan since 2015 where the lilium 2014 dvd came out and people subtitled it cuz idols)

meanwhile here the fansite

I dreamt my sister's dad kept threatening me so I'd just stab him in his collar and under his jaw and then sit with my mom Then I was in my old room and it was nighttime and I heard vacuuming and and I thought it was my stepdad coming and I didn't wanna wait to see him because that's scary so I tried to get out of my room but there was like little doggy baby cages everywhere and I had to break them to get out and when I opened the door it was just my mom but she was still mad at me and held my head under the bath water

Next I was in my velcro house again from a few weeks ago and I thought that it was real and that real life was just a long dream and I was so happy because I had everything I wanted I had a screen tablet and markers and canvases and noodles was there BUT my old friend Molly was the landlord and said that noodles can't live with me because she'd rather have noodles in their own apartment and get 2 rents. Some stuff happened and it turned into a stageplay kinda and I had to make choices about whether to stay loyal to my landlord or sell his info and shit and like then I was in a maze of hallways and mirrors and I had to chase the other guy around in it and THEN we were getting in a limo and I went in behind Trump and he got mad and I woke up then i took a nap and i had an orgy and then i watched a banned episode of doug where doug starts a cult

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Here's a shoutout to all the trans people losing their invisibility today! The trans people who: -disappeared years ago to their family and friends and will have to talk to them today -drive their cars into drive-thrus and scare the people working there -pretend to be ghosts, walk around haunted houses, and chuck shit around -put tiny lizards down the back of people's shirts while walking through the street -have to be the special effects people for their cis friends' harry potter stageplays -sneak into the white house and graffiti penises on trump's desk while he isn't looking -have been invisible for so long that they've forgotten what they look like, and like it that way -whose idea of fun is harassing swans and geese in the lake, making them angry, and then directing them to transphobes -give sad stangers hugs so they feel better, or terrified. it varies -stand behind people in long flowy dresses and wave them around so it looks even better remember, you are valid! tomorrow you will be invisible again!

TRUMP & LILIUM stageplay + manga spoilers !

hot take!! someone on twt asked me my thoughts on Klauss’s state at the end of the play/manga but I HATE splitting stuff I have to say into different replies like twt or tiktok and this is kinda long SO here we go

Why I think it would be better if Klauss were dead:

To preface, I want to say that this opinion is partly formed because I had SEVERAL misconceptions about the events of the manga for a WHILE.

The manga wasn’t fully translated on the manga websites when I was reading it so I had to read the last 8ish chapters on tiktok. And sometime during constantly switching between the manga panel slides and the translation slides (no shade to the translator who is infact carrying the fandom), I missed some points and misunderstood some others.

One such point is: in the manga, as opposed to the play (which I watched much later), it was not as clear to me that Klauss is supposedly still alive.

When I watched the play I was so surprised by Klauss’s remaining alive, I thought the manga had not stayed faithful to the play.

So what I thought happened here at first was something like, only one immortal HAS to be around at any given time, so Klauss was able to die because Sophie was now immortal, or Sophie is TRUMP now. And given the way that Klauss said, “I finally reached the stars with my own hands,” I also thought that he meant he could finally die.

I felt that the intent behind this statement being, ‘I can finally die,’ gave the ‘I finally reached the stars’ moment a better meaning than the ‘I found a remnant of you and made it immortal’ part.

This is especially because part of the reason Allen affected Klauss so much was because Allen was aware of how awful immortality can be. I thought Klauss said he was able to reach the stars (like Allen wanted to) because now he was able to die.

When Allen always talked about having the stars, and in contrast when Klauss said in the forest that he doesn’t think his hands can ever reach them, it came off to me as a sort of ‘Allen is able to think like this and be so hopeful and whimsical because he has not been around for as long as Klauss has, and he has this security in knowing that he will not be stuck here forever.’

So kind of, reaching the stars = having the freedom to die. AND klauss can’t reach the stars = klauss can’t die.

This is why I thought, when Klauss said at the end, “I finally reached the stars with my own hands,” that he was able to die, and I thought that this gives that whole thing a better meaning, rather than just attempting to end his Allen-centric loneliness by immortalizing Sophie.

Okay now this one is not as strong of a point but going off how it’s ‘I can finally die,’ VS ‘I found a remnant of you and made it immortal’, it also just doesn’t seem as in line with what Allen would have wanted.

But maybe that was the point actually… now that I’m writing this out, it is pretty good how in the end, in the name of Allen, Klauss ended up doing to Sophie what Allen would never have wanted for himself, as if this was his opportunity to fix what he wasn’t able to do before. It makes it a lot sadder this way. I shouldn’t have doubted u suemitsu oopsies

My other reason for preferring Klauss died would be because it makes Sophie’s character more tragic. He’s spending 3000+ years looking for this guy thinking he has some kind of hope to end being alive for so long, but imagine this guy is not around anymore? then he’s just spent several millennia on a wild goose chase for hope.

And the OTHER other reason is just Sophie is my favorite because of his insane aura and he’d have MUCH more aura if he really was TRUMP. Just reread the last couple of scenes in the manga while imagining he’s TRUMP the aura go crazy..

But yeah!! I think that it just made a little more sense if Klauss had died at the end, because of how they set up that line + the contrasts between him and Allen to come off, and also just the whole point of him saying he reached the stars at all. and also sophie 🐐🙏

I did not mean for this to get this long tbh but yesterday I wrote a little essay for my creative writing class on Ul and tried to keep it short and it was still a page longer than allowed. so uh. we r not republicans but we stay yapping about TRUMP yippee?

and maybe i’m wrong about all this idk maybe it didn’t make sense or I missed something ELSE that was crucial to my understanding of this. if anyone has any thoughts on this or disagrees for whichever reason, please share!! I would love to hear

Hola, desde hace tiempo quiero verme los stage plays de Trump, pero los links con subtítulos al ingles que encuentro están muertos o directamente los parches de traducción no funcionan. ¿De casualidad hay algún lugar con links frescos en donde los pueda ver?

que yo sepa todos los links en inglés funcionan (revisar aquí, los revisé y funcionan), pero algunos hay que pedirlos, como sea parece que hay algunas en bilibili, hay en dailymotion (lilium 2014, pero tmbn está con subs en español ahí) y vimeo (nirin zaki) de cualquier modo estoy con más gente trabajando en re-traducir todo al español en @trueofvamp-esp (puedes encontrar aquí lilium 2014 y nirin zaki de momento)
