I think this is probably one of my favorite endings of all time. It's so perfectly bitter-sweet.

Couldn't have been any bettere. Just a awsome story line, and with the demon and angel fighting. Too bad we didn't get to see Sabastian's true form

So terribly bitter-sweet! *A*
I'm not sure if I hate or love this ending... >__<;; (probably love)
My friend some-what spoiled it for me by calling up on the phone saying "I FINISHED KUROSHITSUJI *SNIIIIFF* ;__;". Great, thanks.
I feel so empty inside now... that's how I usually feel when I've watched/read something that changed me. UGH SO SATISFYING ;w;

Sebastian ate Ciel. That... made me squeal a little. >w<;;;

I thought that this was a pretty good way to end the series. I'm glad they killed Ciel because it just would have been disappointing if he and his butler lived happily ever after. They wrapped up who killed Ciel's parents. I was starting to think the writers forgot about that since it hasn't been mentioned.

I kind of wanted to see Sebastian's true form, but I didn't think they'd show it. I suppose they just want you to imagine it, but I'm curious as to how evil he truly looked. I wished they would have said what happened to the other servants as well.

The series overall, wasn't too bad. It felt pretty boring and pointless at times, but all the different aspects made it interesting.


yeah I agree with you here, I gave this show a 7/10

I GOTTA SEE SEBASTIAN'S TRUE FORM!!!

My interest has been piqued, so hopefully there will be another season with Sebastian with another master (hopefully one not as annoying as Ciel) and he meets an opponent so strong that he has no choice but to reveal his true for in front of everyone.

I'd agree with the mixed feelings the ending / this series. I'm not quite sure what to rate it.

It seems like the story had a lot of potential, but the series never quite did it for me. From what you all are saying, it appears I should read the manga to get a better depiction of Kuroshitsuji at its high point. :)

The end, unforetunately, did make me sigh. Mostly because of how yaoi they made the ending. I enjoyed how they previously displayed Sebastian: with his feminine qualities contrasting his dark nature. His character was shifted pretty much to the feminine side toward the end, which I thought contradicted how they previously displayed his character.

I'm so sad about the ending. I was a great ending, but I voted that I hated it, because I have mixed feelings. It's just plain sad. I'm sure Sebastian cared deeply for Ciel, but in the end he had to take his soul and devour it, and Ciel wanted it to hurty, and *Sobs*

I need to read the manga, now! *Totally depressed*

Finally I have gotten to see it. This series I started quite some time ago and I am just now finally finishing it. Yeah I know what u want to ask "why so long" well that is simple because I could never find time or be left alone long enough to watch it.

Well now on to my thoughts about The series now that i have finished it.

Okay I do have to say it was really good I can't say I am going to make it a 10/10 but 9/10 is still good.

While I was watching Episode 23 I was thinking Yeah I am going to be disappointed in this series well at least at the ending. But I know that I was wrong I enjoyed the ending I was kinda hoping that they would leave some room for a second season but they really didn't they can in a way make another one
(like How Liz was left alone she could make the same deal as Ciel so she can end up being with him.) but that is what I was thinking on that.....

I REALLY WANTED TO SEE WHAT SEBASTIEN'S TRUE FORM WHY.....THAT ISN'T FAIR it kind of reminded me of Trinity Blood at that moment. But just reminded we actually got to see Abel's true Form Yayayayay. But not Sebastien's though....

Well I think I have covered my thought's on both the end as well as some other points so this is were I say

I loved the whole series, and I loved this. I don't get how anyone can complain about the fact that it went in a completely different direction to the manga.
I felt really sad at the end, which is one of the best anime endings I've ever seen, but whilst bringing the series to an end, it made it feel ike there was more to it. It just made want to sooo get another series. *Hopes that Ciel isn't dead..* I want to see Sebbeies real form :3!

He sold his soul to a Demon afteral so it was quite normal that he died at the end..... it would have sucked if he didn't.

WOW!!! Awesome ending. Even though I only got to see Sebastian's real form's smexy boots, it's fine. It keeps me curious about the "real" him. Gives me something to ponder, hehe. Great fight scene, nonetheless, Ash/Angela is crazy. haha!

Although we all know that Ciel is supposed to die in the end, it still made me cry. T.T
But i guess he was happy to be devoured by his loyal butler, right?
BTW, how exactly will Sebastian eat his soul? With the way he was bending over (pun intended, hehe), it kinda looks like he's going to eat Ciel like a cannibal. Kinda not fitting for his image (for me). But still i love Sebastian, he's the hottest and awesomest demon butler ever!!!

Although I'm quite disappointed that Ciel's past was not explored thoroughly. Still, i give this anime a 9/10. a must-watch, definitely.

It was obvious that this ending was rushed. It wasn't clearly explained why the reapers decided to help. And there was still much more to know about Ciel's (and everyone's) past.

However, Ciel's journey to death couldn't have been more perfect. We all knew he was going to die but the way it was presented was beautiful.

As much as I'm as curious as everybody else here, I think it's best they didn't show Sebastian's true form, since we all might get disappointed if he's not as scary and awesome as they described him to be. I was already disappointed with the high heeled boots he was wearing! lol

I agree, this was pretty much expected for the ending unless they would plan for a sequel of the same story which I doubted.

Had HUGE potential, but never seemed to fill it. Instead, got fillers, poor development of story & characters and a poor ending = boring (for me at least)
=.=


Pretty much agree with this. The beginning of this series held so much promise, but right in the middle, the series decided to lose its identity and not really concentrate on the good stuff it had going for it. I'm curious as to what exactly the second season will encompass. My guess is that Sebastian will be back, but maybe we'll see a new main character who makes a contract with him, since Ciel is dead.

Regardless, a 6/10 in my book for this series.

I thought that overall this anime was pretty good. The ending was a good one but it was predictable. -.-
BUT, considering that there's a second season...maybe things will get even more interesting... hmm..
I wonder how the second season's gonna be like? Is it going to be of Seb and another contractee? Eeeeeeeee!! can't wait!! X3

I still want to know Seb's original form... ^^'

When Sebastian's getting closer to Ciel I think I saw fangs.
I'd give it an 8/10. I demand a sequel. It'll be interesting where Sebastian will lead to from that point on.
Thissss!!!

Mmm this show had a great potential. Too bad they left the end in the best part, I wanted to know what came next and what was Sebastian's true form u_u

The show left too many questions unanswered =/ Why Ciel's parents were killed, what was going on with that crazy angel, etc.

Oh, and of course needed more Sebastian fanservice xD Too much of Ciel, imo.

Anyways, loved the ending, the animation was so fluid... I loved that. Really heart-breaking.

8/10.

I want a 2nd season! So they're going make one?! That's so cool, I can't wait :D
Since his arm was cut off (the arm that has the symbol for their contract) the contract may be invalid? I want to know what's going to be about >_<

I finished watching Kuroshitsuji last night and I ABSOBLOODILUTELY loved it. I particularly loved Sebastian but then again who didn't? lol. In my opinion, this anime epitomizes the fact that noone is purely evil or bad. Everyone has there days when they can show kindness. In Sebastian's case, he kind of grew fond of Ciel even if he is the embodiment of all things evil. I do have a question though. What exactly happened to Ciel? According to what he said, he wanted to get revenge on the people who humiliated him. What does this mean?

Why do you think Ciel got eaten! It will be the next season , ne!? ._. Well I'm sure Sebastian didin't took Ciel's soul. I hope so. Oh I can't wait for the second season. Then we will see how it is.

Okay.. End was awesome! I loved every part of it! I want to see Sebastian's true form too! And I love his eyes!

Ashela's axe-crazy face made me think of Higurashi xD And I wanted to see Sebastian's true form... Why the high-heels? o.O

I'm not really disappointed that Ciel died. And I won't miss him, if he doesn't appear in second season.
Too bad they didn't show Sebastian's true form. Though he for sure would be as sexy (or more xD) as he is in human form. ^^

One of the best Ends I've ever seen. Love this anime, despite many defects.

one hell of a butler, one hell of an ending.
but it was satisfying, indeed; if Sebastian hadn't eaten Ciel *yaoi fangirl screams at remembering the final scene* or he had somehow turned up to still be alive, i would have officially categorized this anime as the worse i've ever seen >_<
as for the series overall...

I thought this was an amazing anime series :D
It had everything. I'm yet to read the manga, so can't compare the two but everything on this anime was great. Characterisation, setting, the use of historic events and metaphoric representations used throughout. And everyone. Even though a second series is official. The ending was PERFECT. It was well... Perefect. It was closure without an end. Who know, seb could have just been leaning for a kiss?? No, I'm not a yaoi fan girl, nor am I a girl lol, not that I don't like yaoi... back on topic.... It wasn't definite that Ciel dies died or is dead. It was only suggesting. Brilliant ending :D Can't wait for second season :D

I wouldn't say it was epic, but that was a pretty awesome episode. Sebastian was so incredibly cool during that fight. Daisuke Ono is absolutely amazing. And it was super sad with Ciel dying, even if it was appropriate.

Although, this anime could have been much better without pointless fillers. I think people seem to forget that... If it'd had some actual character development, such as the relationship with Ciel and Sebastian, I think it would have been amazing, but it's kind of a poor adaption with a great ending.

8/10 regardless

The thing that immediately came to mind when I saw this screencap was Lucifer, since he's often portrayed as having a goat head (look at the shape of the jaw/mouth). Haha, that just made Sebastian's "true form" creepier for me.

I'm more confused as to how there's going to be a second season. Is it going to be an alternate retelling? Since it seems teh otaku are having issues with the shows difference from teh manga.

Ok so the screen is blurred cos of the tears so excuse spelling mistakes.

I have no idea what to think of this ending. The series is FANTASTIC. But the ending...so many things left unattended. And yet somehow...SATISFYING.
I bet Ciel's not dead. Well there's the second season coming in January hopefully. And I have no idea what they'll show in that either...only that I remember Ciel being in the main character's list (HOPE!).
What a dark dark anime...when Sebastian was being tortured I was almost convinced he'll never let Ciel die or kill him...guess he's a demon after all.
I'm just...WOW. Still caught up in all that. I guess i'll make a much clearer opinon of it after some time...at the moment i'm just...

9/10.
My judgement of anime is heavily based on endings.
If Ciel were still alive it would've been 10 but his death was too obvious. If it was a happy ending it would've ben 200/10, but I guess that wouldn't fit in witht he show. (I'm a sucker for happy endings)

ONe of the EXTREMELY rare anime that I watched with slow speed and full pleasure (took me around 3 weeks! and purposefully, i didn't want to rush it I loved it so much. I was saving the end for the weekend) and was happy with every minute of it.
One of the very few indeed which left a big impact on me.

Now...the wait for season 2 is killing me.

His true form wasn't shown in the manga yet so I doubt it will be completely revealed in the anime.

There's a new season to be aired next year but not much information has been revealed as of now. As far as I know anyway.
