Kuroshitsuji II a.k.a Black Butler 2 review (FINAL EP)

Saturday, September 18, 2010

I watched the english subbed the so called last episode/ episode 12 last night.I hope there will really be episode 13 or another season for this.

I expect that Alois and Ciel will have a battle of the wits since watching it from episode 4 but my imagination didn't really came true.

Hannah really is a master planner! I even like her more.

 Both Ciel and Alois got a nice ending. Ciel for his revenge accomplished, fulfilled contract and a free ( I mean without having to pay for the wage or salary) butler.  Poor Sebastian, he can't eat Ciel's soul. I also pity Lizzy for being left alone. His servants do really care about him.


For Alois, he can now join Luka, Hannah and Claude. I am glad he made the butlers fight without getting their meal especially Claude. Honestly, I am a fan of Alois Trancy and I really like him. I like the way Yana Toboso created his character. I also like Ciel but in this season I love Alois more and Ciel annoys me a lot. He is a selfish brat.


The whole season is dumber than the previous one. At first, while watching the second season, I got really thrilled and excited every episode because of its unpredictability and plot twist but the ending is like WTF.

I find this dancing part very cute
I know that many hates Lizzy. I think animators really intended to make Lizzy annoying. For me, she is a little bit annoying in the anime and in the manga, she isn't. I still like her and she is really cute and adorable. Her mom, Mrs. Frances Middleford, is also cool and badass.


I prefer the season one because of more detailed plot, characters and the balance of hilarity and seriousness. I really love the curry arc and the introduction of Meirin's, Bard's and Finny's backgrounds.


I expect the ending more cruel and better. It is cool that Ciel turned into a demon but I found the contract stupid and not having an awesome smart way response like I experienced in Code Geass and especially Death Note.
Lelouch, is this you? ^^
 This season is like a doujinshi/shounen ai anime made by Yanao Rock.
Yanao Rock is Yana Toboso's pen name when she was making yaoi manga (ex. Glamorous Lip) back then. I also want to read Rust Blaster.


 If we do the math here, Ciel's birth date is 14th December 1875 meaning he is 13 years old in the anime. Alois's birthdate is November 5, 1875.

Meaning they are both 13 years old.


I hope it will not be the ending or almost the same in the manga.

I will still read it and like I said in my first blog about Kuroshitsuji 2. The manga is 10x better.

The shounen-ai parts are more on interpretation and fanservice unlike in the second season that the anime is obviously gay. If I am a boy, I'll not consider this as a shounen anime.

Anyway, I'll wait for the Kuroshitsuji OVA release.

Kuroshitsuji 2 episode 6 raw from Keyhole TV

Friday, August 6, 2010

I have watched this episode earlier this day 1:20 (Japan time) something in the morning Friday which is 12:20 am in the Philippines.

I almost lose hope that MBS would be online because it didn't appeared on my keyhole tv and then I watched an Asuka cosplayer singing a karaoke version of Cruel Angel Thesis. When the clock has stricken at 12:25 am on my time, it became online and then I am able to watch it from the opening credits till the end.

I cannot wait for English subs because i only understand basic Japanese words. ( readers walking away (" _ ).. Hey wait please)

I really love this episode and it is so bad-ass. When the triplets fought Sebastian, it sucked because it didn't show the way or move on how they escaped the ladder attack. Anyway, I really love the fight between Sebastian and Claude.

Meanwhile, inside the manor, Ciel's friends are also really affected by Hannah's musical instrument. I amazed that Agni wasn't affected even he didn't cover his ears. Agni's and Ranmao's fighting is so cool. I also appreciate Prince Soma, Meirin, Bard and Finny for pawning those guests.

I am glad they've shown the clip and a little bit of explanation from the last episode of season 1. I wonder what the agreement between Sebastian and Claude is all about. They even did a blood compact. They used their own blood and roses. I am sure that the paper Sebastian gave to Ciel is all about his own information and the past events so he will regain his memories.

Alois's costume is so cute!
When I watched episode 5, I thought Alois is so gay but when he was in the party, he is a bit of masculine. His attitude isn't only bipolar but also his manners (sexuality I think).

The added excitement in this episode is when Alois courted Elizabeth. It is unexpected. I cannot wait for Alois and Ciel fight for the next week.

Good Luck for the subbers. Thanks for them that we can watch and share this anime.

Kuroshitsuji 2 / Kuroshitsuji season 2

Saturday, July 17, 2010

While I am still waiting for episode 3 English subbed, I'll be posting my review about this.

Sorry, my PC is messed up that the text in this article are fucked up.

I watched the first and second episode two days ago. At first, I am lazy to watch this season because the manga is 10x times better. Lizzy/Elizabeth's mom, The Circus Arc and Arthur still rocks!

                              from the Kuroshitsuji Official site. (This is what I've imagined when they meet)

After I wached Kuroshitsuji 2, I really like it especially when Sebastian and Ciel are still on the season. If not, I'll just watched the first episode because the season looks like a fanfic turned into anime. Also, Alois is a gay (short shorts) psychotic delinquent brat.

                                                         I wonder what really happened to them Oo

From crows, there are spiders in this and he obtained the seal on his tongue.

Oh no WTF is this laugh?


                                                        More brutal than Hunter X Hunter anime, Bleach and Naruto

Similar to season 1 except that there are three visitors in the Trancy mansion, Alois dislikes his uncle. I found Claude won me with his tap dance.

                                   He is the best actor because of his natural fake smile and loneliness (better than Ciel)

Alois is very interesting to watch than Claude. It gives a refreshing feeling to watch an anime again after Code Geass.
                                              I can't wait to see the episodes. Alois is so young and cute.

                 I found this scene hilarious. Can I also do that to my uncle who is after the money? Gonna try that.
                    I am glad Claude didn't join Alois to laugh. He is also like Sebastian who sometimes defies orders.

The stranger who came during the rain/storm is obviously Sebastian but I wondered why he is after the tea.  

Yipee!! Sebastian showed again! with
Ciel in a briefcase.
                                                              Alois, are you going to _____ Ciel?
Tired of screen caps. 

Overall, I like this season and I am really going to watch this till the end. I am more curious about Alois and Claude but I still prefer Sebby and Ciel over them. Besides a great singer, Nana Mizuki did a great work in his boyish voice and it suits to Alois pretty well. I wish they met like this in this 2nd episode opening:



Just enjoy! If you like less shounen-ai stuff and you are into more shounen stuff, just read the Kuroshitsuji manga because it is so different and it is still in 40+ chapters. I read it only in 3 days. You can even read it in less than one week. Can't get enough of reading Alois x Ciel fanfics ^^
