Omnia Vanitas is what they call Julius' teleport maneuver in Harmony of Despair.

And Aria of Sorrow.
He had the move in AoS, but I don't think it had the name Omnia Vanitas yet.

(which means Vanity of Vanities, in case anyone was wondering)

When Trevor needed vampire powers, he went and beat the crap out of Alucard and made Alucard join him.

Actually, it's more like "All of Deceptions" or "Every Deceptions".

Well, I actually understand the latin language. To an extent. My brother does, too. We both got the translation of Vanity of Vanities. Omnia and Vanitas both mean Vanity, but when you put them together, it translates to Vanity of Vanities. It would be "all of" or "every" if the word were Omni, not Omnia.

"Omnia" is the neutral plural form of "Omnis", which is accorded with "Vanitas". I looked for "Omnia" in my Latin dictionnary and found nothing about "vanity".

Hm. It has it in my dictionary.

Vanitas vanitatum is vanity of vanities.
Well, vanity in the sense that everything is in vain. Not someone who's vain.

Omni gets thrown around a lot in move names. Like, "Omni Slash" for example.

The regular dictionary gives the definition of ": all : universally <omnidirectional> "

So... Julius' Vanity is everywhere?

Maybe the context is more as in, "EVERY ATTACK YOU THROW IS IN VAIN AGAINST MY DODGE, HEH."

Trevor would have no need for vampire powers. He would pimp walk into that gate, kick the forgotten one's ass, and return alive.

[/thread]

also: Vanity of Vanities - opening line to the Biblical Book of Ecclesiastes. Don't see the connection, a rather bizarre name for a dodge if you ask me.
