Ozaki said:
…!! I wish to express my deeeepest appreciation for all of the amazing lovely fried rice!!!
I'm so proud of the citizens of Sternbild! To reciprocate your affection, I'd like to realize a T&B CAFE in the near future. Thanks, and thanks again!!

Fried rice is a reference to Barnaby's line in episode 24.

Both the director, Satou Keiichi, and the writer, Nishida Masafumi, replied to it as well.

Satou's twitter: 炒飯だらけじゃないか(笑)ありがとう!そしてごちそうさま
Basically "that's a shitload of fried rice (lol) thanks and (thanks for the food)"

Nishida's blog:
"It's been a while since I got teary-eyed.
The line about the rice was one that had a lot of thought put into it. Towards Kotetsu it wasn't a plea "please don't die", but a very Barnaby-like attempt to both encourage him and to tell how much he wants him to live.
Barnaby has lived for nothing but revenge and unable to accept people, yet the extent to which Kotetsu's has humanized him is clearly seen in ep24. That line also expresses much gratitude.
All that rice that the fans created kind of makes me feel very rewarded and as a member of the staff I am very grateful.
My deepest thanks to you, and again, thank you."

*nods in fervent agreement*
It makes me so happy. The fans have been wonderful - not only in regards to organizing the frie(n)d rice event - and clearly so are the people behind the show. I'm so glad they believed in the show and pursued it - makes that 'Let's Believe' banner seem so relevant. <3

This is the randomest thing I've seen/read all day. So, what.. people just made rice for T&B? .. Fair enough, don't see me making tea for the Kuroshitsuji fanbase though.


The show endeared itself to people in such a way that they took it to heart and did something silly to show their affection. It was just meant to be a show of support is all.
