How is it that we have so little of their backstory still…I just read the entire series and watched a few episodes and I mainly just wanna know about these two
A note on the The Case Study of Vanitas: I really wanted to like the series as a whole buttttt I cannot stress how tired I am of some of these shonen romance/love story plot lines. Can we stop treating sensitive/inappropriate/potentially triggering situations as gags??💩
The art and writing is generally very pretty though and the world building is cool! Idk much about French history(?) but it seems to be cleverly interwoven into the events of the series.

Chasseur Trinity Timeline
Hello there, I'm back with my timelines because I need everything to be in order XD
Since this time I didn't wrote a lot of things in the timeline, I will explain my points below (anyways, if after reading it you have some question, don't doubt and tell me):
First of all, we know that in present day Olivier is 27 y.o and Roland is 26 y.o thanks an old Omake (I don't have it rn, sorry).
1) Roland and Olivier met:
I don't know if they are around 8, 10, 12 or more so I used a big period of time in which they could have started meeting.
2) Roland and Olivier arrived Paris:
This is when they started they training as Chasseurs and we got some information:
Olivier hairstyle was different.
They were late teens or young adults here.
Roland was covered in bandages (for training or a mision).
Side note: importance of Roland's scars.
Roland's scars were what I used to organise the events between they met and when Astolfo lost his family:
As a kid, he didn't have any scar so we know this is something he got as a Chasseur.
(image from 46.5 of Roland covered in bandages)
When he started training he was covered in bandages so we can't tell if he got his scars here or not. But anyways, this is the nearest event to him and Olivier meeting because it's when they started the training XD
(image of Roland and Misha in memoire 47. Roland has right arm broken and is fully covered in bandages again)
When he met Misha after a nearly death experience, Roland was totally covered again + and eye patch (here is when I think he got the injuries that become his scars).
This event can be near to when they started training, but it can't be near the time Astolfo met Roland because in that moment Roland and Olivier were full recovered.
+ I don't think this happened after rescuing Astolfo because basically, taking care of Astolfo became 24/7 Roland's job.
And finally here we are able to see his scars. It's near to when they rescued Astolfo so that's other point to think he got all of that before Roland and Astolfo met.
(imagine is yellow) 3) When Olivier planned to leave the Chasseurs a.k.a. When Roland met Misha:
Back to the timeline, as I explained with Roland's scars, this has to be before rescuing Astolfo.
And again, this event can be near to when they started training, but it can't be near to when they rescued Astolfo because both Roland and Olivier had their arms broken. And depending what it's broken you need around 2 months or more to use it normally again (maybe the Chasseurs have drugs to make it shorter, but I will ignore that).
4) Olivier and Astolfo met:
We can't really know if this was the first time they see each other or even if this 2 panels are from the same day, but there are 2 important things to note:
Olivier wasn't a Paladin yet.
Astolfo already know the vampire.
5) The doomed day:
Between the previous event to this one there shouldn't be much time and, since Astolfo wears the exact same suit, I could even tell it was that same night. But kids can use the same clothes in different days so it can be more time between these events.
Side note 2: UwU I killed.
Since Astolfo wasn't a Paladin here and he is really similar to the present day, I think this happened around a year ago because Astolfo became Paladin at 15 and he is still 15 y.o.
6) Present day:
It's still 1888 because Astolfo's birthday is 6th January (basically, first day of 1889) and since he still 15, they are probably at the end of 1888.
Here both Roland and Astolfo are Paladins, but Astolfo ascended time before Roland.

And that's all, thanks for reading my mucho texto.
