I absolutely love the mystery theme, especially ones that fit the mystery train genre type (there's a killer we are all trapped with and we need to find them before we all die) and Book of Murder delivered this, along with all of my fun favourite characters (except Grell ;-;).

Story: This story is very well done. Bringing back characters that fans haven't seen for a while, and it's pacing was done fairly well. Mystery genres are almost always slow, as was this, but they have to be to keep it interesting and make the audience continually guess what's going to happen next. This was definitely a great storyline of Kuroshitsuji and among one of my favourite adaptations, 8/10.

Art: The art once again, did not disappoint in this series/OVA of Kuroshitsuji. It did not dip in quality and was always very nicely done with good attention to detail, landing it an 8/10.

Sound: The soundtrack to this was good, nothing completely outstanding but definitely not poor, I think it deserves a 7/10.

Character: The old characters that have returned were a pleasant surprise, along with all of our regulars throughout the show that I loved (minus one) was good to see as well. All of the new characters introduced seemed to have some potential, but some of them seemed to not be as fleshed out as they could have been, although it was only around 2 hours total. Giving the characters a 9/10.

Enjoyment: As I previously stated, I greatly enjoy the mystery genre and this series, so a mixture of the two was something that I really like, thus I am giving it a 9/10 for enjoyment.

Overall: In total, factoring in the good and the bad, I think that this deserves an 8/10 as it's overall score, on the cusp of being a 9/10. I would recommend it to fans of the series.
