SPOILER Review of the Public School Arc in Black Butler. Im pleasantly surprised by this production. I have to admit when I saw the teaser for this new season on YouTube I was worried it would turn into a disaster. But as of now Id say I was wrong. The storyline set in a public school is interesting because we see Ciel Phantomhive in an unfamiliar position: in a school environment having to act like a child his age. Indeed he has always been portrayed as a child ahead of his time and maturity. Small in stature yet already holding his fathers title as the Queens Watchdog. I enjoyed and laughed a lot at how he integrated Sebastian into the school to help with the investigation. With servants being forbidden Seba I mean Mr. Michaelis had to don the attire of a steward to stay close to his master. A steward mind you who is both charismatic and capable. But thats to be expected from the Phantomhive familys demon after all Maybe well get answers in the next arc which was teased in German and it surprised me so much that I had to check if I was still watching Black Butler haha. On that note Ill see what other anime whether Ive seen it before or not I could review next
