• View history

Murr (ムル, Muru ) is a character from Jun Mochizuki 's The Case Study of Vanitas . He is the pet cat of Noé Archiviste , having been with him since his childhood alongside the de Sades and continuing to accompany him all the way to adulthood. Murr seems to have been originally owned by Louis and resided in Averoigne alongside the boy, his grandfather , and Noé who had been taken in as the latter's student—up until his owner's untimely death, by which Noé came to be his primary caretaker. Thus when Noé receives an order from his Teacher to travel to Paris in search of the Book of Vanitas , Murr follows.

Throughout Noé and Vanitas 's journey to save every curse-bearing Vampire they can, Murr remains their grumpy yet faithful companion.

Appearance [ ]

Murr in Bal Masqué.

Murr is a cat with a very fluffy white coat, in particular his tail having the most fluff and volume. He has heterochromatic eyes, with the right being purple and the left being blue. His neck is decorated with a jeweled, purple ribbon. During the Bal Masqué arc, Murr also wore a small mask which had similar a design to Dominique's mask.

Personality [ ]

Murr seems to be in a constant state of annoyance in regards to everyone and everything around him. He often ambushes others and will even scratch his owner Noé. He allows himself to be held and doted on, although he maintains a frown of irritability throughout it. Murr prefers the company of women to men, escaping from his cage so that Amelia Ruth can cuddle him upon their meeting. He seems to enjoy spending time with Count Orlok, Manet, Nox, and Amelia. He also seems to have had a good relationship with Louis.

Murr's surprise appearance.

Murr is inside of a cat carrier throughout Noé’s journey to Paris on the airship. After spying Amelia Ruth he easily escapes from the carrier and delightedly cuddles with her.

Powers and Abilities [ ]

• Longevity : Murr is seen playing with Louis as a full- grown cat approximately ten years before the start of the series, and has not appeared to age in any way since then.
• Intelligence :

Relationships [ ]

Noé archiviste [ ].

Murr has a surface dislike for Noé, often scratching him and ignoring him. Despite this, Murr seems to care for Noé at some level, tolerating his company and excitability, and often perching on his shoulder.

Vanitas [ ]

Murr on Vanitas' lap.

Murr seems to enjoy Vanitas' company, being occasionally seen sleeping or sitting on his lap. Noé has also questioned why Murr likes Vanitas so much, going so far as to ask if Murr was bribed or if Vanitas was actually a woman. Apparently, Vanitas is the type of person who doesn't care about cats, so he gets attention from them instead.

Amelia Ruth [ ]

While aboard La Baleine, Murr escaped from his carrier and accosted Amelia. Amelia was initially frightened, but after recovering from the surprise, she was delighted to have his company, commenting on Murr's warmth. She later greets the cat again after being freed from imprisonment, happy to see him.

Nox and Manet [ ]

Having been left behind when Noé and Vanitas left to track down Thomas Berneux , Murr went back to Galerie Vivienne where he was discovered by Nox and Manet. Nox and Manet initially were going to remove Murr from Count Orlok's presence out of fear that the count would find him noisy. They held him roughly, causing Murr to attack them out of aggravation. After being scolded by Count Orlok for their poor treatment of Murr, they joined the count in fondly doting on the cat, playing with Murr and feeding him, and eventually becoming great friends.

Parks Orlok [ ]

Count Orlok scolded Nox and Manet for not treating Murr properly and proceeded to dote on Murr, using cat toys to play with him. The two are now great friends.

Louis de Sade [ ]

Louis and Murr seem to have been friends while Louis was alive. Louis is seen interacting with Murr during a flashback, and when Dominique pictures Louis as an adult, Murr is perched on his shoulder.

Murr and Flute.

Flute is the small black cat that lives in Hôtel Chouchou . Murr has a big crush on her, but she always takes him very lightheartedly. However, they can be frequently seen hanging out together.

(*) - Denotes that the character did not appear physically, but as a part of another character's memories.

• "Murr" is a reference to the titular character of The Life and Opinions of the Tomcat Murr , [1] a satirical novel by Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann written from the perspective of a cat who has learned how to write.
• Murr has had a crush on two cats throughout the series so far — an unnamed white cat and Flute , who is a black a cat that lives in the hotel.
• Jun Mochizuki drew Murr as a human for the Volume 8 omake. He appeared as a young boy with long white hair, heterochromia, and a grumpy expression. Human Murr seems to get along well with the cat versions of Noé and Dominique.
