Description Toward Books Black Butler, Vol. 1 (黒執事 [Kuroshitsuji] #1)
I watched Kuroshitsuji first, that's why I'm so late in reading it. I liked it so much that's why I picked this out even though I finished both seasons. I thought the series was over.How wrong I was.
Apparently, the anime industry has once again decided to end a series before the manga counterpart ended. I suppose I could understand WHY they'd do that but they should have stopped at a point where they could pick off again once the manga is far enough. Like Naruto! And Kuroshitsuji is surely popular enough that fans are willing to wait! Cheez. But enough of that.
Kurshitsuji introduces the young Earl Phantomhive, Ciel, who inherited his title and his job as the Queen's dog from his deceased father. Forced to grow up faster than he has to, he juggles many responsibilities as the head of a house and the prefect of the underworld. Thankfully, he has his amazing butler, Sebastian, by his side. Sebastian can do and WILL do everything Ciel tells him. From cleaning up spectacular messes to performing superhuman feats, this butler is perfect in almost every way. Too perfect. Apparently, Sebastian is a demon Ciel made a contract with. He will stand by Ciel's side until Ciel finds the people behind his torture and his parents' deaths and exact revenge. And then eat Ciel's soul of course.
I LOVE Kuroshitsuji. Not only is it set in the Victorian era (yep, Ciel is Queen Victoria's "dog"), it has a unique plot and such a loveable set of characters. I URGE you to read this awesome manga.

ok damn where should I even start? This manga, THIS DAMN MANGA, will break your heart.I don't care whether you like anime or manga or not but you must watch this anime or read the manga ( if you're new to anime /manga, I recommend watching the anime because I think you're going to enjoy it more. The soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous).Must read this book 5 stars without even a second thoughtI watched Kuroshitsuji first, that's why I'm so late in reading it.

Just a big ol' nope on this one.
re-read: still 3.5 stars for me -----------------------------------------------------* 3.5 stars *WHAT?! I feel like this was just so quick! Probably because it was super short so...But one, at some points I was very confused. BUT am excited to see were this story goes. I like Sebastian though so!(:
Sebas-chan! Just recently I watched all of the Black Butler anime series and upon finishing the show I knew I had to read the manga. It ended up being perfect timing since I am participating in a genre challenge through my local library. This week is the last week of the challenge and the theme was "choose your own genre." What better genre challenge for me than a manga? I've never read one before and previously I was put off by the fact that you have to read a manga from right to left. I mean
I loved this. I loved how it was so different from the anime. Ciel is far less brutal in the manga (right now). A scene from the anime was not in the manga that I saw and I'm not sure if I like that or not. This volume introduces us to a good number of characters. Sebastian of course. The head butler of the Phantomhive household, and a demon contracted to work for Ciel Phantomhive. Ciel Phantomhive, head of the family and president of Funtime Toys. He is working for the queen and goes on
What can I say about this first volume in the Black Butler series? I absolutely LOVED it! It manages to be cute, suspenseful, funny and chilling all the way through. Ciel is intriguingly deep for a child, and Sebastian is both wonderfully complex and extraordinarily simple in the end - and one hell of a butler! Finny, Meirin and Bard are great as comic relief, but surprisingly they also serve to offset the scenes in which Sebastian is slaughtering the criminals, making the bloodshed both
