Kuroshitsuji (黒執事, Kuroshitsuji? Negru Butler) is a manga written and illustrated by Yana Toboso. Since its debut on September 16, 2006, it has been serialized in Square Enix's shōnen manga magazine Monthly GFantasy. The series follows Sebastian Michaelis, a demonic butler who is obligated to serve Ciel Phantomhive, the twelve-year-old head of the Phantomhive noble family, due to a contract he made with Ciel. It was announced in July 2008 that an anime adaption, directed by Shinohara Toshiya and produced by A-1 Pictures, was expected. It premiered in October 2008.

Plot

In a manor house on the outskirts of Victorian era London, butler Sebastian Michaelis serves Ciel Phantomhive, the twelve-year-old head of an English noble family and a toy company. Sebastian carries out any task required by his master and solves the problems plaguing England with ease and perfection because of his demonic lineage and Faustian contract with his master.

Characters

Sebastian Michaelis (セバスチャン・ミカエリス, Sebasuchan Mikaerisu?) is the butler of the Phantomhive household and Ciel's bodyguard, two jobs he is completely devoted to (though he does put Ciel in dangerous situations to see what he would do and slips in insults from time to time). He often describes himself with the phrase "Watashi wa akuma de shitsuji desu kara.", a play on the word "akuma" (devil) so that it translates to either "I am just a butler" and "I am a demon and a butler", but is alternately translated as "I am one hell of a butler". He is highly skilled in any area and handles every task, no matter how impossible it is, as well as any problem that arises from the errors of the other staff with ease, stating it is only natural as the butler to the Phantomhive family. This is due to the fact he is a demon bound by a "contract" to abide by Ciel's will. A sign similar to the one marking Ciel's right eye can be found on his left hand, which has been used on one occasion to twist the arm of a kidnapper without touching him. The name Sebastian is in fact a temporary name given to him by Ciel. He is voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa on the first drama CD and Daisuke Ono in the anime adaption and on the second drama CD. His name is similar to that of Father Sebastien Michaelis, who compiled a hierarchy of demons in Hell.

Ciel Phantomhive (シエル・ファントムハイヴ, Shieru Fantomuhaivu?) is the business-savvy, twelve-year-old head of the English Phantomhive noble family, taking over after the deaths of his parents. He also runs a company that manufactures toys and sweets. His right eye, which is usually covered with a black eyepatch, bears a pentacle sign of contract which binds the demon Sebastian Michaelis to his will. He also has a symbol burned into his back during the time he was traded around as a slave before Sebastien saved him, which is something he does not like for others to see. He is portrayed as emotionless. He ultimately looks at Sebastian as a pawn. He is close to his cousin and fiancée Elizabeth, seeing her as an important friend and someone he needs to protect. Ciel does not want to lose anything important again. He is voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro on the first drama CD and Maaya Sakamoto in the anime adaption and on the second drama CD.

didn't saw the topic till now
Ciel is my fave one <3
am inceput prin a citi manga si asa am dat de anime. Este unul din anime-urile care se claseaza pe rank-urile inalte (si asta, datorita faptului, ca exista si anime-uri mult mai bune decat Narutard (sorry for the fans))

Kuroshitsuji 2 coming out :) Cu The Gazette song "Shiver" as opening :)

Interview with Aniplex producer Hiroyuki Shimizu
(from Animage 2010/3)

——To be blunt, what will the 2nd season be about!?
Shimizu: Sorry, this is still a secret (LOL).
——What happened to Ciel and Sebastian after the last episode of season 1......?
Shimizu: We don't know the details. Personally, I wondered whether Sebastian had actually taken Ciel's soul or not, and since the anime ended like that I really wanted to make a sequel. That's the reason why we started to think about a new series.
——Everybody is wondering the same!
Shimizu: Yes. But I still cannot tell you whether the new series will be a sequel, a totally different story, an original story, a spin-off or what else.
——Will any of the other characters appear in it?
Shimizu: That's another mystery. When it comes to the servants and Lau we're not even sure whether they survived or not. But sorry, I can't tell you who will appear yet.
——Are there new characters?
Shimizu: What I can currently say is that two new characters will appear. These charas are Alois, the head of the Trancy household, and the butler Claude.
——Please tell us more about them!
Shimizu: Well, Claude is tall and slender, he's loyal to his master and a skilled butler. This might remind you of Sebastian, but his glasses make him clearly different. What kind of man is he? Or... since he's wearing glasses, he might be a shinigami? (LOL)
——He will be voiced by Takahiro Sakurai-san, right?
Shimizu: Sakurai-san voiced the "medicine seller" in the anime "Mononoke", and that's the image I had of him. I thought he would fit a new character that, while looking cold and indifferent, also seems to possess an immeasurable power. That's why we decided to cast him.
——What about Alois?
Shimizu: At first sight he looks refined and cu bun gust like a noble should be, but on the other hand he also seems to have an ill-mannered side. He's a boy of rare beauty, but he might be hiding something, so I'd like you to pay attention to his future development.
——Alois will be voiced by Nana Mizuki-san, right?
Shimizu: Yes. She's a popular seiyuu and has an excellent reputation for her acting ability, boys' voices included. If she can put her heart in Alois, I think he will really stand out as a character.
——Please tell us something about the character design.
Shimizu: We asked the author of the manga, Toboso-sensei, to create the character plans. Since Trancy is a noble family, there might be other servants too. Sensei is currently working with us on all sides, not only character designs but, as with the previous series, she's also contributing ideas for the story. Please keep your hopes up.
——Compared to the previous series, in what will "Kuroshitsuji II" be different?
Shimizu: We want to make it more interesting and action-packed than the previous series. We're also collecting more data about England, so that viewers will be able to enjoy a more historically accurate depiction of the 19th century. The entire staff are doing their best to make full use of the original manga's charm and turn it into a more enjoyable anime, both visually and story-wise. We're aiming for "more entertainment!".
——What is "Kuroshitsuji"'s charm, according to you?
Shimizu: I've always liked Tim Burton's "Nightmare Before Christmas" and other gothic-inspired works, so when I first saw "Kuroshitsuji" I was attracted by its world and thought that I'd like to animate it. Moreover, "Kuroshitsuji" can't be confined to a single genre, because it's full of many different elements like gag, mystery, action and more. This time I want to make every effort to express this work's entertainment qualities through animation in a more effective way compared to the previous series.
——Is there anything you would really like to include in the 2nd season?
Shimizu: Since Tim Burton's movie rendition will be released soon too, I think it would be nice to conține some connection to "Alice In Wonderland". Toboso-sensei also drew some parody sketches of it using "Kuroshitsuji" characters and they were extremely interesting. There are many other things I would like to include, so please look forward to it!
