Wow, that had nothing to do with the previous episodes. Not a bad episode...though I really don't like this prince, I do like his butler. He is a good foil for Sebastian, and brings to the fore a lot of Sebastian's flaws.

Hooray for the end of fillers. I was so excited to see the Indian Arc get into the anime. I just never thought Soma's hair was purple.. Good episode overall

Interesting ep. Also nice to see another butler. Am curious to see what happens next, and what their plan is.

Fortunately the series has returned to corresponding with the manga. The battle scene was definitely tasteful, though I did find it a little too fast whilst the one present in the manga stretched on for a while. No worries though. Soma's hair was definitely unexpected. I had assumed his hair would sit roughly under a chocolate hue. Ah the surprises never cease! I am anticipating what wonders the rest of the series has in store for us. =D

Yaaay for Agni-san! I couldn't wait to see him in the anime. The fights were soooo cool. Him and Soma are so cute when they want to play. Especially, when Soma tells Ciel, that he's busy, buhaha xDD.

I like the prince. I think he's more than he acts to be and he has purple hair ^^ I think it's novel for the writer to include India into the picture for once. It's the first time i've seen something like this and i appreciate that some ppl recognize that the world doesn't consist of Japan, China, and England. Of course its still weird that they're all speaking jap, but this is an anime.

even though I haven't read the manga I'm glad we're back to it ^___^;; though it might have been nice if they'd finished the filler arc before going onto the manga-faithful one :/ or was it just me who thought that the change was rather abrupt? after all, we just found out who the 'big baddie' was behind the puppet girls aaaand..

a completely unrelated indian prince appears? o__O oh well, I can roll with this xD

This was a pretty good episode, and yeah it was abrupt, how they switched from the filler arc to the indian arc. good riddance, I love Soma and Agni. They were hilarious. More bishies and it makes me hopeful that they'll return to thought provoking plots and artistry. I have to hand it to them the fillers were okay, I've seen much worse with other animes. Ahhhh. I can't wait to see what happens.

And for today's episode:

The Beautiful Battle Between The Butler Bishounen!!
is what they should have named it...

Whoa, Sebby has finally met his match!
Damn, Soma's the 26th child?! His parents got buuuseeey!
And we happen to style our hair the same way LOL

LOL, CIEL GOT OWNED WHEN HE ASKED THE INDIAN PRINCE TO PLAY BUT HE REFUSED, LMAO. DON'T TAKE THAT CIEL, BEAT HIS ASS OUT. EVEN IF HE'S A PRINCE, YOU CAN STILL DO IT.

Okay, I was wondering how that guardian of that prince was able to fight Sebastian in par. Is he like a demon also? He can't be human man. That or Sebastian is getting weaker or he didn't unleash his full powers yet, lol.

Those 2 indian guys were suspicious. I bet they're the ones that killed those English men. Well, I know that strong ass indian maid had to do with it somehow. I think his urges to kill didn't really disappear yet.

I don't care for the prince at all. He annoys me. But it's nice to get some new characters in.

By the way, does anyone else think that Meilin's voice sounds a bit like Olive Oil's?

Mildly interesting episode. I wish they would’ve made it seem less out of place in the storyline.
It’s nice to have an addition to the cast; I look forward to seeing more about them. I enjoyed how Agni made Finnian, Maylene and Bardroy work with him to make the meal in the kitchen.

Ciel got his offer turned down by Soma. Way to kill the mood. I couldn’t help but laugh at his face.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

It was probably because of how far the anime deviated from the manga the last... 12 episodes?

The plot was interresting, that new indian bring an exotic side to the story.

Everything seem to be pointing toward that new butler to be the culprit. But it would be a bit too easy. Why also would he write all those insult? He doesn't seem to hold a grudge against the Queen.

Agni sure is impressing, to rivalise with a demon...

Ciel should be more careful with the Scotland Yard, he should put them against him.
