THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Oh man, this studio is great. The animation is fluid, and they don't cut out too much because it's violent or anything.

In any case, YES! This is totally the arc that got me hooked on Kuroshitsuji and it was greatly handled. Sebastian throwing plates at people's head made me wince, haha. Also, when he raised up after being shot, it was spooky and the face he made after, just... wow.

Really liking the way they're animating this, even if they switched the order of some chapters. Makes perfect sense, because we do need some action to get people hooked.

Next week, I believe we'll be getting a better look into Ciel, so I can't wait! I love that chapter.

Also, the soundtrack is turning out to be amazing.

I REALLY LIKED THIS EPISODE. Sebastien is amazing! He can kill people with plates and dishes. He can kill people with fork and knives. WTF can you ask for more??? This time Ciel is captured by the Italian mafia and they want the key to the safe where apprently there are many $$$$$$$$$$.

The whole episode has MORE THAN ENOUGH action for all. I love the THE ART OF THE GIRLS MOST!

WARNING THERE MORE YAOI suggestive scenes! THAT KIND OF DISTURBS ME.

We find out both Ciel and Sebastien are DEMONS.

HIGHLIGHTS:

Sebastien can be deadly with plates/dishes and knives/forks


Sebastien and Ciel are demons 100%.


BAD GUYS DEAD! I loved this scene. Sure teaches them a lesson.

Uh excuse me? There are not scenes that can be so "yaoi suggestive" like you make it seem at all. Ciel's 12 and Sebastian's his butler, it's his job to take care of him, you know.

Also, there's no proof that they're both demons. What we find out is that Ciel has some sort of power.

There're some discrepancies with the anime and the manga. Starting to get confused because although it's supposed to be in the 19th century, and the anime reflects that. the manga doesn't. Rarr...

But on the otherhand, good ep! Oooh...I see black fingernails!! <3 Sebastian!

This episode follow most of manga so it hasn't any different points.
The action scene is good but I feel manga is more exciting than anime. If the studio could make the action scene same manga, I might not be a little disappoint.

Give only 4 for this episode. > <

I agree with AngelLily - the relationship between Ciel and Sebastian can be seen as a sort of skewed child/parent interaction; it doesn't absolutely have to be yaoi.

I have to say I love the music going on in the background when Sebastian is taking people out with dishes and silverware. So ironic XD

But seriously, the anime seems to be more Hellsing-for-girls than the manga. They've cut quite a bit and skipped straight to the action sequences.

Much better than episode 1. Lots of explanations and lots of Sebastian being awesome. I have a hard time seeing where this is headed though. I'm guessing there's some kind of plot, besides Ciel and Sebastion made a contract with Ciel's soul as the price?

I don't know why but so far Ciel is my favorite. I'm not a fan of shota at all, but whenever I see Ciel I go all mushy inside. Maybe cause he reminds me of Artemis Fowl (my childhood crush) so much...

Wow the animation dropped dramatically since the first episode. And the story is still a bit slow and too close to Hellsing for me, so I guess I'll drop it here.

The 12 year old's eye is proof of the contract. The only power he has is to command Sebatian. Sebatian has the same symbol on his hand to show both party's accepted the agreement. The only person that's a demon and has powers so far is Sebatian.

The animation is a definite plus for me, and I absolutely love the ED (I know I said this last episode, but still). I've haven't been so amused and entertained by an ED since Ashita no Nadja xD

Really? The forks made me wince more :S Could you imagine getting a fork jammed in your frontal lobe? Would that even kill you? And I sure hope they bought new silverware after that ;)

Also agree about the soundtrack. I love it when they put classical music to fight scenes -- when it's done right, that is. There's something classy and elegant about it ^^

I agree. He's so serious for a kid, but confident and authoritative, rather than pitiful because of it. It's hard to believe he's 12.

There's shouta suggestiveness in this episode! Ciel being on his knees and tied up that is. I was like "wow did not see that coming".

Other than that it was a great episode! I wanna see more killer butler. =3


P.S. Who's the fool that dropped the show after this episode?!

This episode was amazing! The animation is great and the OST is a big wow too. I'm getting to like it more and more. Boy I had my expectations high but it is way better than I thought!

Love the dark humour, like Sebastian looking at the clock saying he's late and should be starting to make dinner while there's an explosion in the back and 2 guys getting killed xD
A big LOL @ him killing people with tablewear

Also, Ciel has some kind of contract with him (cool efects in his eye and Sebastian's demon ones, let me tell you). What I gathered was that he traded his soul to get the demon to serve him. So most likely whatever he orders the demon to do can happen, even if it seems impossible, because of the contract they're in.

I can hardly wait for the next one! :D Hope that the subs won't take that long this time...

Finally a new sub came out. I didn't think this show would have slow subs =(
anyway, really enjoyed the ep. Sebastian is delicious.. I would also sell my soul to have him as my butler >_> (+ Ono Daisuke's voice is dreamy)

too bad he didn't torture that mafia guy a bit more before killing him... or at least that we could see it...

I feel a little dirty for thinking Sebastian x Ciel is hot... um, ok no I'm not, they're hot! XD

I highly doubt that Ciel is a Demon.. if Sebastian is, then more or less I would assume Ciel is a form of Necromancer or Warlock.

Great anime so far though.
