I die on the inside every time I see a cosplay from the second season.I die a little on the inside every time I see a Claude cosplay. Because merging souls always sounds like a good idea. Other than the cray-cray obsession with Ciel’s soul and his brilliantly horrendous plan to do some soul merging. The above GIF? Claude doesn’t exactly have the personality to pull that off.

I die on the inside every time I see an Alois cosplay. Alois is surrounded by robots (Claude and those triplet people) and is too busy having a pity party for himself to try and change anything about his miserable life. Ciel is also kind of a brat, but Ciel is surrounded by cray-cray people who bring in the hilarity and is trying to work hard and do things about his life. The worst personality of the year award goes to Alois! He is a brat.

And these bullet points aren’t exactly in an order. I’m doing the things I didn’t like in bullets because paragraphs are long. But we didn’t need an entire extra season for maybe one episode’s worth of good things. And Sebastian posing for photos for Grell. I’m not going to say the entire season was garbage because it did have its moments, like the costume party episode. Also we needed Soma and Agni as Sherlock and Watson. As much as I love Sebastian, Ciel, and the rest, I was happy knowing that their time came to a perfect and beautiful ending.Īnother reason the second season exists: Ciel was never dressed as a pirate in the first season. If we wanted more Black Butler, do a different kid with a completely different butler. If a series ends as beautifully as that, we do not need another season. My impression of S2 of Black Butler: basically people loved the first season which ended so beautifully and succinctly that we obviously needed to reopen the very much sealed can of worms and do another season. If you liked S1, do not watch S2 because it will make you cry tears of anger. Because my advice is you should not watch it. So no cursing me out after this post, okay? Pretty please? Also, don’t read this if you actually want to watch the second season.

I am already aware of the heap of trouble I’m getting myself into by writing this.
