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.
