bump if you are reading
Kuroshitsuji? On my /a/? Amazing.I've been up to date with the manga for almost a year now and ngl I almost regret it, 20 pages per month for a mystery thriller is such a painfully slow burn. Ciel and Sebastian spent 9 months in that damn smoking room...
>>289654789Way less characters than last time, huh.
>>289655295good to have anon
>>289655007I still don't trust that fucking Tanaka.
>>289655558He's just a silly little guy, don't worry about it:)
>>289655366Cute freckles.
I still rewatch the Emerald Witch Arc ED every once in a while, it makes me so emotional. The servants are too kind hearted for this world, they don't deserve the inevitable gruesome deaths as mere pawns to be sacrificed that leave Ciel completely unfazedSeason 5 announcement doko
>>289655596>Men are so impatient.She said that last volume, too.
>>289655907>batshit trans murders biological women out of jealousyis yana a terf?
>>289655713Wasn't there a specific term for these types of dolls?
I forget how the specifics go, so why does it seem like there's only one Phantomhive child in the flashback?
>>289656136"our" Ciel was always meant to be a spare replacement for the "real" Ciel, so I think they only ever spent time together in private, away from privy eyes
>>289656353>Who is that?I'm surprised he doesn't know. Then again, the reason why I knew at his age was because of pop culture references.
>>289656315I wish the reveal happened sooner. There is simply not enough ciel x "ciel" out there.
will need to leave a little, sorry
>>289656087Just a ragdoll isn't it? Just without the accoutrements
>>289656136Big spoilers:>>289655510The nurse is holding a baby, the mother is holding another baby.>>289655530Angelina is holding the nurses' baby, while Rachel is pointing at the baby she was already holding in the previous page. The reader is tricked into thinking it's the same because Rachel says "Your nose is just like his", without considering the possibility that if they're twins, it applies to both at the same time.>>289655549This is OG-Ciel, recognizable by different speech pattern (we'll see more of that in the future). Back then nuCiel was bedridden, and that's another can of worms, because here Yana Toboso also sneaks in that Rachel is frail of health so we're supposed to believe nuCiel took it from her, except... meh, I suspect something else.>>289655792"A child's corpse" Not "the". Btw the previous pages feature some mistake in translation when people address the progeny of Rachel, but translating it like that would sound ridiculous. "My missing nephew" some pages later, instead, is correct and in line with "a child's corpse">>289655974World-class play on words here once again, Yana Toboso foreshadows the theme of the entire manga. 'Why did this child return, when "he" did not?' Madame Red of course is talking about Vincent. But it's also the question that eats at Ciel's core.
>>289656395>Sebastian darling...so we going by that translation, huh?
I am resisting the urge to hover over spoiler text
>>289657766Please do. Or read the manga on your own and then come back to the reread once you're done. All the spoilers are legit and mind, I'm still holding back because I'm sure I already figured out some future plot points. That's what happens when a writer is consistent and not a hack.
>>289628221>Madame Red>Blue colorShe was doomed before it even started
>>289658201I wish that was me
>>289655907Wait, is the grim reaper male or female?
>>289658560Transgender, I think. Biologically male, but wants to be a woman.
>>289649734Jesus Christ. I thought it would just be like dismemberment at worst with careful disembowelment.It looks like she fell face first into a shredder or got mauled/half eaten by a lion. Ripper really was an accurate epithet.Though it detracts from the whole "gentleman killer" modern Jack the Ripper depictions go for because this is straight brutality. Nothing surgical at all going on.
>>289659256I see Lizzie, the chinaman and one or two of Ciel's employees among the pile of bodies. Are they really going to die?
Will need to leave now, will post the last chapter at night
>>289659337If it's not clear by now Ciel does not give a single fuck about any of them
>>289658677He's acting quite suspicious.
>>289658822This is when I started becoming more interested in the series: Ciel isn't just serious business. He's completely unapologetic.What I didn't notice on my first read is that 1 the very first job he's ordered to do on page, and he's already "betraying" the Queen. 2 I'm reasonably sure his father was no different whatsoever. Btw speaking of Vincent Phantomhive, given how aware CIel is of his surroundings and given Vincent is supposed to be Ciel squared to eleven, chances are he always knew Madame Red was into him, and never said anything. In true Phantomhive fashion.More on the first spoiler:Two times we've seen Undertaker, two times he says he doesn't like the Queen. This is one of my personal evidences against the Queen, given Undertaker deep ties with the Phantomhive and his ability to see their death records. Also, Ciel means serious business.
>>289659987He want his pee to make >virgin boy eggs.
>>289660221Yummy.
>>289660050Yeah, that does support the theory that the Queen is the mastermind and the Undertaker knows it. And since she already has a pact with a supernatural being it's not like the Undertaker can easily resist her.
>>289658201Isn't that part in the back usually meant for skirts? I'm not very familiar with Victorian fashion.
>>289660474While we're at it, the chess analogy could be another evidence. Here Sebastian says he's staying with Ciel until checkmate, symbolized by the White King falling- All Queen's people dress in pure white, and at some point John Brown disguises himself as a White Horse. We already know Sebastianis Ciel's Black Horse piece.If this last chapter is correct, the moment Ciel defeats the Queen at the game, it's over for him. After all, Sebastian knows who the culprits are. Simply, Ciel refused to hear him.
Is this a black souls thread?
>>289660993This is the second time I've seen someone mention Black Souls. How come? I'm particularly interested because I've been meaning to play that game.
Ciel just needs a hug
I find it amusing how there is this one guy on MangaUpdates who obsessively seethes over the presence of bishounen in shounen manga.
>>289657620>>289657666I always thought the Grim Reaper scythes being different gardening tools was nifty.
>>289661075The thread normal goes like this
>>289662168Holy schizoramble. Black Butler being a shounen manga isn’t that accurate in the first place. Unlike its parent magazine Shounen Gangan, G-Fantasy has explicitly stated it’s aimed at both girls and boys. But because Western fans are so obsessed with categorizing everything into four neat demographic labels we get this.
>>289659410Bless you Anon, I'll be looking forward to your future chapter dumpsMaybe your threads will garner enough interest so that threads will be made for new chapters too. Considering how mainstream this series is it always baffled me it's not a thing already.
Imagine resisting the urge to satisfy your hunger when your meal is looking at you like this
>>289665101I thought about dumping recent chapters but at the same time the amount of Kuroshitsuji fans here are probably in the single digits. Last thing I expected was a storytime.
>>289665794>the amount of Kuroshitsuji fans here are probably in the single digitsI mean, even pure slop like a gentle noble's vacation recommendation managed to have somewhat active threads for its full cour.I can't imagine Kuro kino doing any worse.
>>289654890>brandySebastian, he's 12.
>>289666362It was the 1800s, they still had over the counter medicinal cocaine at that point
>>289666407Ah, better days...
>>289655322He has a right pupil here. Does that mean anything?
>>289657667not sure if you can count on translation being that accurate so early on, may be a coincidence
Live a little more please

>>289658903The undertaker kinda sounds like the reaper here.
>>289662766Yeah.The punishment secateurs are cute later.
>>289662168The ai pfp is a great summary for that post.
Baldo has been implied to be American, but I wonder about the other servants' heritage. Mey-Rin and Tanaka don't sound like very British names.
>>289669895Tanaka is clearly short for McTanaka of the Cromarty McTanakas who've resided around Ullapool at least as far back as the Finno-Korean Hyperwar.
>>289669895Tanaka was where Sebastian got the idea for the Japanese garden as he sipped tea from a Japanese style cup. He's definitely Japanese.
Been meaning to read this, thanks for the dump OP.
>>289670279An old Japanese butler in Victorian England? Bit of a stretch, don't you think?
>>289670279he's a nurarihyon
>>289669895Keep reading, you'll get each of the servant's nationality. Or at least the country where they come from, in one particular case.If you want to know, Tanaka is Obviously Japanese.MeyRin is Chinese. She has quite a heavy accent in her dialogue lines, actually, but the translation doesn'y emphasize it. Bald keeps weapons in the kitchen, only cares about burgers... Do I really need to spell American out loud?Finny is from Germany. But that doesn't make him necessarily German.
>>289670470>nurarihyonSomehow, I first read that as an Engrish version of "honorary Aryan".
>>289654858>bump if you are readingSTOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO, BUTLERHEAD
God i love shotas
>>289670967So do I.
>shotajust a few hormones more and that won't be the case desu
>>289671579<3>>289671682The transition from shota to man is hot too, i don't mind.
>>289655549Should've went for the son.
>>289655596She deserved so much better
>>289655819It's horrible to see how the cute girl became this.
>>289656318I hate that fag so much.
>>289670425This is after Van Gogh had become a weeb. Sakoku ended decades prior.>>289671920I thought the same thing. She could have had both of her beloveds in one.
>>289672133He's basically the mascot of "be gay, do crime"
>>289671755>The transition from shota to man is hot too, i don't mindbased
>>289671939It's a pretty fucked up fate. I feel more bad for her than the prostitutes she murdered.
we are back
>>289665608What would happen if Sebastian broke his promise and ate Ciel?
>>289673085>>289673104>>289673125lmao. How the fuck are those 3 idiots still alive?
>>289673163Pretty rude to call your son in law girly. Especially when he has barely/not even hit puberty yet.
And thats it for the day sorry for the delay tomorow will be more smoothly
>>289673676Once we "get there", you will regret your words and deeds
>>289673983Right now I want to rape the trap-ish gardener and strangle the other two morons for being dumber and more useless than a rock. Tanaka is the only one who looks like he used to be a capable person before something turned him into a complete retard.
>>289673482I think the idea of not breaching the contract is merely for the sake of nurturing Ciel so he becomes the "best tasting" meal he can possibly beBut maybe that interpretation stems from S2 dialogues which is non-canon. It's been a while.
>>289672921Why is trauma so hot
>>289673031Kek
>>289674095We've all been there. But you'll see soon enough. We just have to slog through the terrible curry arc first, but we're close to knowing what's up with the servants. Well, half of it anyway>>289673924Thanks again Anon
>>289673924Thanks OP. I really love the SOL moments in this manga, they're just special to me
>>289673044She's either amazing in bed or an absolute annoying bore. There's no in between with. This woman.
>>289673139You just know
>>289674291>curryI liked watching that episode the most
>>289674486It takes all kinds of people to make a world...But also considering three of my favorite episodes are from Season 2 I'm in no place to criticize anyone
>>289674486It was cringe. I hope it inspires some good shitposting though.
>>289673650Um, why is he looking at me like that while licking his finger?
>>289673650>>289673670I choose to believe this means Sebastian likes Ciel, at least a little.
How far along is the manga now? I remember I stopped reading back during the werewolf stuff (the 2nd one I think?)
>>289676281opium den namek
>>289676382Damn, Namek seems to always hit these sorts of mangas
>>289676281We're on chapter 228 right nowThe werewolf / emerald witch arc ended at chapter 108
I read it long time ago and can't say I really like itStopped reading it right after his brother came back and will probably not read it againWill still come to the thread and see the comment>>289673924Thanks OP
I wish Alois was canon
>>289677272Whore
>>289677515That's a huge part of the appealKid knows what he's got and made good use those assets
did they ever explain how or why the germans had a fucking tank in 1888? or why it was one from like 30 years in the future? i just remember that specifically causing me to have an autism fit and drop the series.
>>289677714It's just an alternative reality. Personally I find the WWI tank in late 19 century far less outrageous than the car phone seen in earlier chapters >>289610366You just have to take it for granted that Kuro's universe includes geniuses making early breakthrough discoveries, like Sullivan discovering the chemical composition of sarin gas just by RP'ing as a witch and drawing runes on the ground
>>289677714>>289677905Also if tanks trigger your autism, you wouldn't be prepared for the idol arc right after
>>289677905Huh. I completely forgot about that car and phone, i think when I saw that my brain just did a “oh, this is OBVIOUSLY set in like the late 1910’s” and didn’t question it. Looking back, what the fuck was the purpose of having that car and telephone? I don’t think it really added anything to the story, and it just makes me question why Ciel doesn’t have a car, or a wireless phone. Both of those would’ve been pretty fucking useful for him one would think. I guess not since they never show up again.
>>289656860>you have to pay the patreon for the only fans content
>>289673267Is this ciel or "ciel"
>>289655142Shhyeah.
>>289677272Wait, is he anime-only? If so, then that's a shame.
>>289680795It sure is.
>>289672866Now that I think about it, Sebastian kind of does have a raven sort of feeling about him.
>>289672921I wonder, was it Sebastian who taught him how to handle firearms?
>>289674214The vulnerability would be my first thought, but there's also more to it than that, I'd say. Maybe the fantasy of getting an unstable person to depend on you, of managing to win the trust of someone so distrusting at all?
>>289654779does this manga have serious arc or is it just episodic comedy?
>>289655295at least we got not!Alucard and now Modric to throw things in for a loop
>>289680994Yes. Shit gets very dark.>>289680947Sebastian pretty much taught Ciel everything he knows
>>289673031Fuck off, lady, bangs are the best.
>>289658560Male but wishes to be female.
>>289673924Thank you, OP!
>>289656026>transGrell is a stereotypical okama>>289658560Gay man
>>289658857I like how Undertaker's reaction foreshadows his attachment to Ciel's family
>>289673650An adult is fine, too.
>>289673869For a second, I forgot the other meaning of the word "gay".
>>289674325Her brother is Vincent Phantomhive and her mom has likely boned a deserting big shot grim reaper, of course Frances is a freak
>>289681343But have you forgotten the other meaning of the word "fag"?No not cigaretteNo not a bundle of sticksThat other other other definition that the translator expects you to know
>>289681411A homosexual?
>>289674095I'd add Mey-Rin to the rape list, but other than that, I agree.
>>289682294Poor Baldo. Not even good enough to be raped.
>>289681411The personal errand boy to a senior student in boarding school?
>>289682694Baldo does the raping
>>289681411Rather makes me glad I grew up with classics like Flashman.
>>289683425Next
