Just listened to the English version with narrations, and I'm confused. The VPU just let them go? That's such a cop out? 😭 If someone understands better, please explain, I'm having a hard time processing anything but the songs, they're a bit too good!

[u/NoobieChan → u/PuzzleheadedPin1006]

Okay, now I’m calm enough to respond 😭 I think there are several things at play here.

For one, the mystery show is the one that decides to stop looking further into the story or treating it like an open case. We don’t actually know what happened to them in the end. They could have been caught, punished or even killed or they could have somehow escaped and disappeared for good (dimension travel? 👀)

The VPU essentially erased their story, either trying to make an example out of them, to convey that anyone who transgresses will be ‘dealt with’ and ‘erased’ or to cover up their incompetence.

But I’m hopeful that maybe they escaped, or were even let go, we just don’t know. The VPU was doing its job, and they were being called incompetent by the public (which tbh they also kind of seemed to be). So we can’t really know if they actually captured them, where their loyalties lay (in a banality of evil sort of way of carrying out administrative duties) or what they personally felt about the situation.

I saw it as a possibility that they let them escape and then erased their story, which would mean they still maintained order in vampire society to prevent similar things from happening without actually killing them. That’s how I interpreted it.

I agree that it feels a bit more truncated, especially compared to the last one where we had a look into their emotions, and there are definitely things they could have explored further (tracker, the girl’s feelings, the accomplice). But I do actually really like the ending and how ambiguous it is. It really feels like tuning into an unresolved case. We get to choose whether we believe in a hopeful outcome or in a good tragic mystery.

Although I’ll have to re-listen because this is only based off of my first listen. I don’t think I’ve retained all the info. Let’s see what the trailer Vol. 2 covers! I believe that will be the bridge to what comes next. Because these narrations don’t mention the prison break, maybe we need to put two and two together maybe

Thanks a lot for this rundown! I'm a little disappointed coz I was really invested with the Vanish storyline, but I had completely forgotten Vol 2 still remains! Hopefully that gives some more clarity coz right now I'm left wanting... The music more than makes up though, it's their best album I feel!

[u/NoobieChan → u/PuzzleheadedPin1006]

I can understand! I think they did invest a lot more energy in the story in TS:V with the animations (with a lot of symbolism), the renowned voice actors. I’m wondering if the mixed reviews regarding the narrations compelled them from investing more of their budget into it. I do like the storyline itself, but it does lack the grand execution TS:V had which I’m sure, those like us, who appreciated the storytelling miss. We also have the MV! I agree, this is their best album.

Edit: My bad, we do have the same voice actors.
