Great episode. To think that such an item with a cool name as Death Bookmark is in girlish pink.. Well it was kind of expected. We learn something new about the Undertaker, though I am curious about his face (seeing the reaction of Grell). Can't wait until the next episode.

----------------------------------------
Well, I don't know what to say. Angela tries to rewrite Ciel's memories for no real reason. We still don't know who she's working for. We find out Ciel's parents were sewn together? The Undertaker is really the legendary Shinigami, and we witness one of the lamest instances of deus ex ever.

Ultimately nothing happened, and I'm unaware of the real development plot wise besides revealing Angela. I didn't like this episode.

I've read the manga and this quite the unique plot twist, which may make it even better than the manga itself, not that I don't mean the manga itself isn't any good. But seeing as the manga doesn't have that recent of updates and all, I think that the anime so far is better than the manga. I'm hoping that it will follow the manga a bit more closely, because the manga is at a certain scene that makes it really creepy and cool.

Grell's face was hilirious, with saying to Undertaker "Hug me~<3" and Undertaker making that crazy face. XD I wanna see that pink bookmark in action again now... I'm loving Undertaker alot now, for comedy reasons of course. X3

When doesn't Sebastian give off pedo vibes? Not that I'm complaining.

Anyway. Eh. Pretty good episode, Angela is freaking insane, I'm assuming, unless all angels are like that. Have to love Grell. The Undertaker being a Death God was pretty surprising, but I like that twist, it actually makes sense I think. Ciel was so cute in his outfit the whole episode, he has nice legs...I'm creepy. D: But still, I hope they explain stuff eventually, I'm sure they will, because a lot of this episode had me going 'ehhh???'

Also, am I the only one who thought Ciel's dad looked a lot like Sebastian?

I bet that the anime will have tons more episodes XD Because the anime was supposed to have 13 episodes and now it's 24 episodes; I'm assuming that the anime will either get so popular again to have more episodes added to it (like 50 or more, hopefully) or have a second or third season.

Seeing as the manga doesn't seem to be that far ahead (it's a monthly manga, afterall), maybe the fillers are so that the manga has more time to move on with it's plot? =3

I wouldn't bet on Kuroshitsuji having more episodes or another season. It would be nice, sure, but it doesn't seem very likely.

Again, doubt it. The manga is far into a completely different story, the Circus Arc, that the anime has borrowed elements from but hasn't actually done anything with. If you compare the anime and manga you can see that the anime is changing things because it has to move towards a good ending with closure, which they couldn't do if they followed the manga exactly.

Personally I wish there was going to be more Kuroshitsuji, but it's not likely. >:

I thought that too, but it might have been coincidental. In one frame he looked like a duplicate of Sebastian, but in another he simply looked like an older version of Ciel. I suppose there isn't much you can do with older, dark-haired men with similar hairstyles except make them look like each other. XD

Personally, i think that maybe at the moment when Ciel has made the contract with Sebastian, he wanted him to get a familiar, father-like look. ^^'

I shivered when I saw that creature sewn of his father and mother. The author's phantasies are really dark and perverted at times. But I guess this one has deep psychological roots and might be one those subsistent to human beings...
So. Angela is not a demon, but an angel, huh? One hell of an angel! It seems she is still alive. And I'm pretty sure she is just someone's servant. Could it be the Queen's butler? His appearance is alike Angela's and Pluto's! And Pluto recognized him. Could it be the Queen wished death to the Phantomhives?!

So... the undertaker is a death god? I wonder if this is true for the manga, yet hasn't been revealed yet. Either way, Sebastian and Ciel's father look too much alike. I couldn't begin to speculate why though, seeing as how it's similar in the manga.

I DIDN'T read the manga yet, and I still could tell that this was filler before reading this topic. The plot of the episode was somewhat cheap and the characters partly off, like when Sebast-chan caught Ciel and told him how impressed he is by him. It's just not like him to say that.

The whole "you have the chance to forget the bad things and live in a peaceful but fake dream" is so old... it has been overused in many manga and anime before, and of course the hero chooses the sad truth over the pleasant lie. ;)

Well, I still liked the episodes for the gags (daite!! XD) and some fanservice. It was ok for one or two episodes, but I really hope they are getting more focused on the original plot now. (I know because of comments that there have been more filler episodes then the last two, but I thought those fillers were well enough, just the episode 17 and 18 felt wrong.)

Oh, I was so joyously happy to see another side of Ciel. He's always so gloomy but when he saw his parents, we could see his love for them!.....You know, once Ciel turns 16, he'd have a great career in a shoujo school life romance anime xD He'll play the cool stoic guy whos popular with the ladies but has no interest in any of them whatsoever and then this new girl comes along me and shows him how to love!

*coughs* excuse me and my incessesant fangirl dreaming.

Best part of the episode:

Whaha, Undertaker and Grell. I'm glad that Ciel didn't get deceived by Angela's powers. A pink bookmark, really.. Undertaker should write some awesome BL with that book. Cruel Sebastian yet cool, using her a darts board. This was probably one of the best episodes untill now. The BGM was really awesome this episode.

I found this episode a bit strange, but at the same time I really liked it. So the Undertaker's a death god?? And when Grell moves his hair out of the way... ROFL, the face he put on! and then the 'hug me' XD I really want to see the Undertaker's face now.

The stitiching together of the two got me freaked out at some point. And I guess that it's not it for Angela, and I think that the Queen's butler (or whoever he is) is also involve. The bit where he comes in the opening is what makes me so suspicious of him. Am I still the only one who thinks that he looks a lot like Sebastian??

Anyways, loved the ep, can;t wait to watch the next. Wish my internet was FASTER!!!

Oh my, a lot has happened in this episode. So, Angela is dead. Too bad, I liked her right after I saw that scene between her and Pluto inside the bedroom, lol. Also, good to see Greil acquiring a new and imrpoved death sycthe, lol.

Okay so Sebastian's father looked really suspicious. Also, his right eye was stitched in. I wonder why and who did it. Also, I didn't expect undertaker to be one of the legendary reapers, lol. It was funny when Greil didn't believe at first that he was legendary but right after he saw his eyes, he got mesmerized by it, lol.

Also, that bookmark tool Undertaker used was very strong indeed. It was like Death Note again, but more powerful I must say. OH AND THAT SCENE WHERE SEBASTIAN SAID, "I ALREADY PUT MY MARK INTO HER" WAS SO FUNNY LOL. THAT WAS THE SAME NUN THAT HE DID THE OTHER NIGHT, Aaah.
