I didn't think I'd like Black Butler. I like Shojo manga and anime and happy go lucky love stories like Ouran High School Host Club. I watched the first episode on a whim, then I just kept hitting next episode. I was hooked, that's for sure.
Sebastian is the sexiest demon I've seen since Doyle from Angel, but that's another post. I never quite understood what happened in Black Butler II. Bassie could've taken Ciel's soul, but he didn't. was it because he lost his arm or something? Still a bit foggy on that aspect. I did enjoy the Ciel in Wonderland episode, but not as much as the back story to Will the Reaper.
Grell is possibly one of my favorite characters. If I could cosplay, I'd pick him/her whatever he is. Don't get me wrong, his mind's a bag full of cats, but he loves the color red. It's a passionate color, it shows how emotional he is about everything. I'd take passion over indifference any day.
I never liked Ciel as much as Bassie, or even the house staff. I have a crush on Finny, he's like the perfect mix of super powered and innocent. Baldroy's cooking method is also how I make supper, a little explosion, charred on the outside, frozen on the inside. I have the coordination of Mey-Rin, and the eye-sight. except I could never be a master assassin. Tanaka is what I expect from a grandfather figure of the household.
All in all, I'm glad I watched Black Butler. The action is intense and I love the animation, it's what I would expect from a great Anime, which this is. I'd like to see the live action movie that just came out a few weeks ago, but I haven't found the full thing anywhere on the interwebz.
