Sebastian still as elegant as ever in this episode, making everything look easy.

Ciel took on a risky mission. I gotta say though, some of those P4 members seems shady. Kinda curious what each of their real moives are. There's also the houses, school system, etc. for Weston College. Pretty interesting stuff. They're clearly establishing this arc with the cast while bringing back the familiar style of Black Butler.

Lol, what a jealous "fag". I can't wait for Ciel to make his life hell.

Details emerge about the responsibilities of the dormitory warden. Ciel assigns Sebastian tasks related to Clayton's requirements. Despite his initial reluctance, Sebastian successfully completes the tasks and proceeds to the first-year classroom for teaching duties. Meanwhile, in the classroom, McMillan remarks on the challenges Ciel faces with the numerous requests he receives. Ciel dismisses the concern, stating that he has a trick up his sleeve—Sebastian—to swiftly handle his responsibilities.

The more I watch this in sub, the more I keep thinking to myself, for once I think the dub is actually better than the sub, in my opinion. I mean, the dub has actual British voices; it just fits better, in my opinion. But I digress, Cole just messed with THE Earl Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis; he's dead meat. Also, it's nice seeing Lizzy's brother again, though I have a concern: he knows Sebastian exists... yet he didn't connect the dots that he was the one making the snacks and everything for P4? Does he not know that Sebastian is one hell of a butler or something? It wasn't really explained in the boat arc movie, so maybe I missed something. But, eh, THE INDIAN BOYS ARE BACK! LMAOOO.

I love this shot, I don't know why, lol.

Last week I said that it's a shame that SID didn't come back for the opening, but didn't notice that they made the ED, I'm dumb.

Oh godddd, Cole is a prick. Super looking forward to Ciel's revenge on him. I know it's gonna be super satisfying.
LMAO Soma is here ToT

It seems like it's going in a. good direction and I'm excited for the characters in the next episode! And as always they do a great job with Sebastian and Joel's dynamic, and Ciel being very intelligent but a kid nonetheless, and having oversights.

That being said, wtf was that scene where Sebastian seemed to be flirting with a kid in the library??? Wtf?? Calm down. Like the confession box itself was fine, but why was he touching the kid's cheek like that? I'm a little speechless.

The plan to screw Maurice begins.

▫How I liked the outcome of this in the manga. 😎

Of course, for the plan to work, Ciel has to pull Soma. 😅

Sebastian having to do everything for Ciel as shown in the beginning of this episode is really funny XD
Still, since he's 'One hell of a Butler/House Master', he'll do it without fail~ Looking as elegant and pretty as ever (≧◡≦)




Maurice Cole could just pass as Edgar's little brother with his looks, but his personality is nasty (¬_¬;)
Even so, he messed with a Phantomhive, so I don't see him getting an easy time anytime soon hahah
Curious as to how they will expose him

Also, I really can't help but be drawn to Gregory Violet~ Even though his house is described as eccentric people, he just seems a bit different from the rest of the P4


UHM (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄) Fanservice alert! That whole scene with Harcourt was just purely done so they could have Sebastian look hot.
Harcourt is a cutie, but sadly another one of Cole's victims...


At last... SOMA!!!!!! My pure, cute, prince from India!! Can't wait to see more of him (>^<)

Wow, at first I thought this Cole kid was going to be super violent and hide everything with a calm facade, but turns out he's more subtle than that
Soma's entrance reminded me of Aladdin's Prince Ali song lol

Kind of surprised he got tricked with the 4PM note. I would have thought for sure his butler would have figured that out easily.
A lot of questions I have, namely how the prefects can see the head but the housemaster can't.

I feel like the butler as a housemaster would have more pull that the prefects.

Amusing as usual. Though I gritted teeth after Ciel was fooled with the meet-up date (but kinda expected it), this wasn't really something new in his life as Sebastian pointed out, and the way he and his butler took revenge in this hateful characters were always satisfying. I forgot that guy who appeared in the last part though; did he appear in the previous seasons (it was so long ago)? I was also wondering if that cousin was from the previous seasons too lol. (Sorry! I just forgotten some of the characters!) But anyways, Cloverworks didn't really disappoint with the animation and I'm loving the show of course

“Yes, my lord” I crumbled.

Cole is officially an opp. That was such a low move tho. I guess he is afraid that Ciel is gaining popularity among the prefects. I'm just going to patiently wait for his downfall. You don't mess with Ciel and walk away like nothing happened. He literally does nothing himself, pathetic.

Guy who doesn’t look like a guy felt like a liar from a mile away. I’m surprised Ciel just believed him as is lol. Though yeah such an “english” school this is, a bit of exaggeration but I feel like it’s mostly accurate.

Soma is here btw.

this honestly is so fun too watch. it feels like the same show but it's elevated more to match a modern style. where earlier seasons did have care and attention behind them, this one feels like they had more time to put some real artistry in the mix.

also, I feel as if the foley sounds a bit better, I don't know if that's just me.

A "boy" who speaks in a very feminine tone and is named Joanne, not john or maybe johann, joanne. Looks like the classic Girl posing as a boy theme
