Kuroshitsuji Picture Drama

It is almost Valentine's Day, and grim reaper Grell Sutcliff finally receives the opportunity to become the heroine of her very own harem battle. Whilst making chocolates for the demonic butler Sebastian Michaelis, Grell's preparations are interrupted by a whole host of handsome men smashing through the window.

First to appear is fellow reaper William T. Spears, who brings nothing but harsh reprimands. Next, however, the man of the hour appears—Sebastian Michaelis. The room begins to fill up even more, with Grell's unconventional harem expanding to include a pair of Phantomhive servants; the English branch manager of a Chinese trading company, Lau; the promiscuous Viscount Druitt; the Queen's butler, Ash Landers; and even the royal master-servant pair, Prince Soma and Agni. And when The Undertaker appears as "The Valentine's Fairy," this chaotic gathering becomes a lot more romantic.

First off, this is pretty difficult to find, not only on the internet, but even on MAL itself. If you find yourself here, congratulations! You're a pretty big fan of Kuroshitsuji to make it this far.

For those of you that want to watch it, it's just one crack episode that's shorter than a regular anime episode, so if you're a fan, I reccomend giving it a try. That being said, this short is not animated. It's a 'live voice acting'. The voice actors of the sub got up on stage and did a live voice acting session for a short crack episode, featuring illustrations ... by Yana Toboso. It may not sound very appealing, but it's really very fun and interesting to watch.

To begin with, the story is funny. To be honest, it's just plain crack, but if you've ever read any fanfiction, you have probably come across worse. It maintains its crack aspect without having to sacrifice the plot. It has a 'Valentine's Day' theme and it followers through with it til the end; it's never boring' it's always fun and engaging.

The art is very pretty, and while it's not animated, the stills are drawn really well and are captivating. You can easily follow the story with her picture; it's like a live manga reading.

The sound is amazing. The VAs really put in their effort and all the characters sound amazing. The minimal background music was also great.

The characters, of course, were supposed to be crack, but they somehow retained some part of their identities, making Yana shine even more with her amazing writing skills.

Lastly, I enjoyed this a lot.

I would recommend this if you: are a kuroshitsuji fan, you like voice actors, you like crack anime

I Would NOT recommend this if you: don't like kuroshitsuji, you don't like crack humor

Have a great day everyone!

Mixed Feelings

It's essentially a 17-minute comedy with Black Butler characters. It's definitely full-on, so if you prefer more subtle humour, you'll probably leave with a concussion. Personally I found it all right. Some of the jokes translate...weirdly, to say the least, but if you're a Black Butler fan, it's probably worth watching. And you obviously are a Black Butler fan because this picture drama is extremely difficult to come across, even if you're a diehard fan of the series.

As for everything else: the animation is non-existent since it's a picture drama, the art is fine, and there really isn't much sound apart from the voice acting ... which is decent.
