>>290048830>That goes for me tookek
>>290049034Rude to talk like this in front of your fag.
>>290049112Ciel casually dissing the readership of this manga
>>290049112No dude calls another dude beautiful
>>290049199Saucy
>>290049157>4 PMYou've been trolled.
>>290049112>He's the most beautiful boy in this schoolNot when Joanne exists
>>290049442Harcourt is the cutest rather than the most beautiful.
>>290049334Desperately restraining myself from posting an edit with both hands
>>290049556So many cute boys. No wonder these schools were so gay.
>>290049536Fun fact about Cricket, no living person knows how to play itAnyone who says anything to the contrary is a liar
>the probably gayest arc is the one in schoolNever change Yana
>>290049647Soma? Is he young enough?
>>290049481Harcourt cute mogs and beauty mogs that sow Maurice
>>290049676huh Yana, was it necessary to draw them like THAT?
>>290049703>enrolls on a mere request of CielDoes this guy have no life?
>>290049750He's a rich nepo-baby, of course notAnd even if he did he'd cancel anything on his schedule for Ciel's sake
>>290048389fan tl was funnier
>>290049796As a prince he surely has royal obligations to uphold He basically still proves his ex fiancée right
>>290049758That's literally Hetalia Germany
>>290049855Based dumbass
>>290049676This is one of my favorite panels in the whole manga, so intimate and cute. Fucking CloverWorks didn't include it in the anime.
>>290049953How did he get in anyway? Enrolling new students would be a lot easier than replacing a teacher. And no one acts like Sebastian is new.
>>290049972>>290049982Based Soma being genuinely helpful for once
>>290050087Ciel is such a little shit. I love him.
>>290050135>And I am particularly talented at making good use of the plain students!>I, the most attractive boy in this school!How this that relevant or helpful to manipulate the other students? It's not like the whole fucking school is made of homosexuals...
>>290050182How do you think the word fag gained its association with homosexuality?
>>290049112I hate this faggot so much, almost as much as I hate Kelvin
>>290049199I bet Yana has drawn that Ciel with one hand
>>290050288What a load of nonsense
>>290049319They're all hormonal victorian teenage boys that have no contact with the outside work while they're sudying there, of course they get worked over those among them who can pass as girls.
>>290049683He's 17 so yeah
>>290049866Yana has to be a Hetalia fan, I'm surprised she hasn't drawn fanart of it like she did for Panty and Stocking.
>>290050361I rest my case >>290049694
>>290050430>fanart of Panty and Stockingmay i see it?

>>290050521>2016Based Yana didn't disown him after all

>>290050087Lazy piece of shit
>>290050521>>290050598Cool
>>290050521>she posts a lot of fanart on her X account tooNot that much anymore sadly since she's busy with both Kuro and Twisted Wonderland.
>>290050427lmao
>>290050635>Twisted Wonderland.How gay is that one?
>>290050558Wasn't that technically for the fag of a prefect? Ciel is merely the fag of a fag.
>>290050698less gayer kingdom hearts
>>290050698Has plenty of fujo fanservice but most of it is subtle and mild since first, it's a DisneyTM game at the end of the day and second, they want to keep all of their fans happy since it has an equally big yume following too.

>>290050750>immediately hires another pretty boyRedmond is a man of culture and taste.
>>290050750Wouldn't the green house always win?
>>290050945That's a plot point.
>>290050797Randomly throwing h*tero shit into the story
>>290051059>h*teroIsn't implied there that Redmond is a literal fag though?
>>290051278That's a cute drawing. I hope this guy isn't evil even though he probably is.
>>290051361They're all rich Victorian era kids, they still need to produce heirs regardless of which way they swing.
>>290048161I love Ciel's "this is fine" face here.>>290048389https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fagging>Fagging was a traditional practice in British public schools and also at many other boarding schools, whereby younger pupils were required to act as personal servants to the eldest boys. Although probably originating earlier, the first accounts of fagging appeared in the late 17th century.  Fagging sometimes involved physical abuse  and/or sexual abuse. Although lessening in severity over the centuries, the practice continued in some institutions until the end of the 20th century.What the fuck, I thought this was just a joke made by the translator.
>>290050698Speaking of Twist man, no wonder so many boys from that game reminded me of characters from this arc, you can tell Yana has started working on it while she was still on Weston College.
>>290048275>Can't walk on grass>Tradition is absolute>You must, you have to, yadda yaddaIf there's one person in this manga I trust to break rules by default, it's exactly CIel Phantomhive
This is it for the day bros until tomorow
danke
>>290051678>l'arcJapan will never win it lmao.
Will read in two hours or so.
>>290049498Post it.
>>290051678Brian, you said?
>>290051729Lazy
>>290051710tyty
>>290048852Sebastian genuinely deserves to eat, he's been working hard.
>>290052182But he eats souls...
>>290051474>calls him by his first nameAm I reading too much in to this or is that odd? Beyond the shocked reaction.
>>290052182He's on a whole different level of delayed gratification. He might actually cum from devouring Ciel.Or at least he would. I doubt Sebastian will live to see the day
Incidentally, I really need to get around to reading Tom Brown's Schooldays.
>>290051059But this is the most genuinely homosexual page so far. He tried talking about women and got immediately exposed as having no interest in them. Meanwhile Ciel has a fiance that he at least pretends to care about.
>>290049556>>290049582It really looks like Sebastian is seducing him, talking about how intelligent he is for his age and all that.
>>290048389>FWAG
>>290051710thanks opI don't watch dubs for basically anything, but the one for this arc is fucking hilarious
By the way, here are the opening and ending for this arc in the anime.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBGVjMxFBE0&list=RDOBGVjMxFBE0&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3K-LQ20MnQ&list=RDI3K-LQ20MnQ&start_radio=1
This arc might be gayer than uncensored yaoi.
>>290048764Stars foreshadowing?
Here's an old piece of art by Yana depicting Alois in his Weston College school uniform.And according to Yana, Alois would be in the Violet Wolf house in canon.
>>290055645The ED is really good fanservice for SebaCiel shippers. I don't know what the hell is going on with the OP though.
>>290055645Did they already make the German arc?
>>290055799Have you been living under a rock or something?
>>290050361I'd forgive him
>>290055833I barely look up what it is going on anime wise.
>>290055968Fair. The first two seasons make the anime hard to watch.
Which house would you like to join?Who would you like to have as your fag?Whose fag would you be?
>>290049034honestly feel a bit bad for maurice here
>>290050184Quintessentially British
>>290049556Harcourt is unironically top tier
>>290052319Does this mean the fetishes and kinks of demons are so degenerate they go full circle? Instead of raping virgins or eating babies, Sebastian prefers to edge himself for years doing the most menial and annoying shit as a butler.
>>290048664>He did his job too well!Likely, that was on purpose, to mess with him.
>>290056211As soon as I saw Redmond talking like that I knew Maurice was going to try and sabotage Ciel. He was obviously a snake. But I could see him starting out as a more normal striver gradually turning rotten from the cutthroat environment. Even with all the bullshit he was pulling he still couldn't be sure of maintaining favor.
>>290054550I don't know what happens after this arc. but I refuse to believe he is pretending.
>>290048691He looks so evil in the first panel.
>>290050146Ouch.
>>290051401violet goodest boy
>>290048475It is a very strange pose.
>>290051623NEVER EVEN VISITED AT THAT POINT?!
>>290056571His uncle is a gay pedo, the homosexuality runs in the family
>>290051444I agree but that wasn't the point
>>290049180The benefits of being tutored by one who natively spoke Latin in it's heyday.
>>290050010My first thought was he might have messed with their memories, but he hasn't been shown to possess such abilities, so I really don't know.
>>290057625I think its best his powers are left to your imagination
>>290050016Actually he's been helpful many times. Problem is, his isn't the kind of help Ciel wants.
>>290050182To be fair, he's called Maurice.
>>290056596I had missed that, nice! It make sense, Ciel's reaction is a bit more mature in the second panel than the rest of this arc. Once you think about it, this dude is a foil to Ciel: pure manipulator, doesn't do anything on his own, leeches on others, plus what you pointed out.
>>290049728Yes.
>>290050328Theoretically it's plausible, I think
>>290050499lol
>>290050499Trying desperately to keep a straight face, but it's no use.
>>290058166Don't fight it. I was giggling all the way when I read this the first time.
>>290050797Victorian NTR art.
>>290051710Thank you, OP!
>>290051356What base is killing zombies together?
Damn, they really did dress like that.
>>290048885
Who's /a/'s favorite prefect and fag so far?
>>290049468This fag needs correction
>>290059225>prefectViolet Wolf.>fagHarcourt.
>>290059225Violet and Clayton.
>>290050361This is the worst thing yana ever did
>>290056098Blue is where I'd end up. And it seems like it would be the least obnoxious. Harcourt is the perfect fag, but that also means there'd be lots competition for him. For a more realistic option, McMillan is cute, honest, and hard working but seems to fly under most people's radars. So he'd be quite a steal. I think the best person to be a fag for would be people that make good fags. But, to mix things up, I'd say Edward. He's such an honorfag that you wouldn't have to worry about him abusing his power over you or not taking his obligations to you seriously. And he's a total pushover if manipulated properly.>>290059225>prefectRedmond. He likes cute boys and so do I.>fagHarcourt, for obvious reasons.
>>290059718>Violet Wolf.Ah, fuck, I'm so tired I can hardly think at all. Somehow managed to mix up prefects with the houses. My favourite in that regard is Gregory Violet, with Edgar Redmond as the runner-up.
>>290051524>Tom Brown's School DaysPeak!
>>290053879Damn right you do.And the fanfiction sequel spin-off
>>290057878Made me think that he wasn't just being sarcastic here>>290050379. Probably giving him harsh advice on how to survive as the second son.
>>290059225As a fan of both goths and punks, it's Gregory and Cheslock for me.
>>290059225Redmond or Violet, I'm not sure.Harcourt
Is kingdom hearts worth it?
>>290061680The first two should be easy to emulate, making them free.
>>290050677
>>290062080fucking hell I genuinely haven't laughed that hard in a while.
>>290059225>PrefectViolet because he's a top-tier troll and because I like drawfags and the color purple.>FagMcMillan. I find boys with freckles or with glasses extremely cute, and he has both. And this page here >>290049676 is simply mouth watering.
>>290059225I'm gonna be real original and say Violet and Harcourt
I am currently halfway in catching up to this. I only wanted to say here that I sure hope the story is a "tragedy" like people have been saying. I want to see the MC die tragically and suffer as much as possible.
>>290062865Shut up, Doll.
>>290063258My problem is that he's just the boring kind of evil. No charisma, no goals I really care about, no actual skill since the demon butler does everything. For a very extreme example, Fang Yuan from Reverned Insanity is obviously much more evil, but he's such an amazing character that I still want to read about him despite hating him. Meanwhile I'm like 10 volumes into Black Butler so far and I just catch myself thinking that I wish someone would put a bullet in this guy's head already. I don't even care about his revenge quest, which should be the easiest thing ever to sell, because he basically does no work towards it anyway and also because aside from the pedo stuff he is literally just as evil anyway.
The arc when these guys come back made me realize that Toboso is writing this manga with her pussy
>>290063360Well you're not going to get anything you want within the first 35 volumes released so far, so enjoy the terrible ride you forced yourself into I guess
>>290063699I love P4 and I want them to appear again in the manga, and I admit I'm weird and ship them together as an OT4.
>>290063828Well, there are certainly parts of the story I like so far, but as I said, I simply do not care about the MC. I guess I'll see whether I get bored and drop it later on or not.
>>290048997your honour he manipulated me into downloading all those lewd photos of him
>>290063360I could not possibly disagree more. Ciel is a great villain protagonist. He's a total piece of shit, but he isn't pointlessly cruel and retarded about it. That's an especially common trap that people fall into with evil spoiled brats. But Ciel only falls into it just enough for it to be amusing. He isn't useless, either. For one, he is actually very skilled for a 13 year old. But mostly he's smart enough to effectively make use of a maliciously compliant demon that does not have his best interests at heart.Also,>other than the prolonged torture, rape, and mind breaking of loads of innocent children done with a calm mind, he's basically the sameHim killing those kids, bad as it was, was still nowhere near as bad as his captors or even the circus troupe. And him ordering that was not a calm, reasoned decision. He was freaking out over having just been made to relive the worst moment in his deeply traumatic 13 years of life. It is extremely easy to cheer for Ciel. He has no inclination to start shit and ruin people's lives on his own initiative. He only engages in reactionary evil.
>>290064268>amusingYeah, I definitely disagree. He has only been annoying so far. All of the humour and interesting parts come from the other characters.>maliciouslyIf the butler actually wanted him dead, he would have died long ago. He's just playing around. Really, he helps him more often than not and does more than the contract demands.>evilSure, he's not as evil as the guys he's plotting revenge against. He's just the boring sort of evil asshole you can see everywhere. He probably wouldn't have someone raped, but torture and mind break are definitely things he has done or has had his butler do. And I disagree with the fact that it's easy to cheer for him. He has had a horrible 2 weeks, but in the end he acts like the worst sort of spoiled aristrocrat brat every time we see him outside of flashbacks.
>>290064395I think you just don't like brat characters. The funniest single panel to me so far was one of Ciel being a little shit. You haven't gotten to it yet, but I doubt you'll like it even when you do. Most of the things that have made me audibly laugh have involved Ciel in one way or another.And you don't know what malicious compliance means. Sebastian doesn't want him dead yet. But he will absolutely let Ciel hang himself if he isn't careful. That was the whole point of Sebastian's lies of omission during the Jack the Ripper part. Ciel cannot trust Sebastian to do anything other than what he was ordered to do. The onus is on Ciel to ensure those orders align with his own interests.>the boring sort of evil asshole you can see everywhereNo you don't. The combination of pragmatic, purposeful evil and total shamelessness in that evil is pretty uncommon. Normally that first type either tell themselves or are framed by the story as doing evil for a greater good. And the second type are usually just retardedly evil with little to no purpose. Ciel knows full well that he is a monster upholding a wicked order to serve his own selfish interests. But he still doesn't do evil shit just for the sake of it.
>>290064395ntaMaybe I don't see the flaws in Ciel since I'm too obsessed with how cute he is. I want them to drag it on and to get all the figurines and plushies and art books and prints there are; currently I have zero of anything. when I get an income I hope I'm still a fan, and the series is ongoing, since I'd love to increase the net exports of Japan.
>>290059718based tasteViolet hating dancing due to having dizzy spells even before being forcefully exanguinated and still trying to stay with his friends for each performance is just too much for me
>>290063360Ciel is basically a byronic hero, you->No charismaleave us and speak no lies forevermore.
>>290064845>I think you just don't like brat characters.I actually like them most of the time, but here it just doesn't hit for me at all due to a combination of factors. Either way though, nothing in this manga really has made me audibly laugh so far. We probably just have different tastes here. The funniest comedy manga I've read this decade is Kengan Omega in combination with its threads.>And you don't know what malicious compliance means. Sebastian doesn't want him dead yet. But he will absolutely let Ciel hang himself if he isn't careful. That was the whole point of Sebastian's lies of omission during the Jack the Ripper part. Ciel cannot trust Sebastian to do anything other than what he was ordered to do. The onus is on Ciel to ensure those orders align with his own interests.Agree to disagree. Again, in my opinion he does way more to help Ciel when he wouldn't need to than anything malicious, which is mostly just trolling. >pragmatic, purposeful evil and total shamelessnessIf you read chink novels you see literally millions of protagonists like this. >>290064902Yeah I think you are basically the target audience. Which is fine, it's still a pretty decent manga even if you aren't into little boys.>>290064951Now this one I think is pretty objective. I don't know how you can say Ciel has any charisma. People like him either due to his aristocratic status, because he helped them specifically, or because they want to fuck little boys. He's just a 0815 asshole otherwise. Even though he was out of his element there, the circus part shows how well he would do on his own.
>>290064395>but in the end he acts like the worst sort of spoiled aristrocrat brat every time we see him outside of flashbacks.He's LARPing the part 24/7 because his vengeance demands he keeps up the appearance of aristocratic nobility, least he gets his title removed or be targeted for assassination. In that effort he's probably over-compensating just to be extra safe. Not saying he's not extra-bratty to Sebastian, but he's also under no delusion when it comes to the type of relationship they have. He's his prey. If you know your soul will get ripped to shreds very soon, you might as well force the culprit to wash your ass with silk while you still can.
>>290065280His struggles in the circus had nothing to do with charisma. Ciel is a great bullshitter. The reason Doll go so pissed at him is because of how betrayed she felt after thinking he was a sweet kid.
>>290065280>I don't know how you can say Ciel has any charisma.As other anon said, he's good at bullshitting people. Both during the circus and murder mystery arcs.
>>290064902For me nostalgia is also a part of it, Ciel was always a pretty iconic character growing up. I do remember being more of a Sebas fan when I was young though, even looked up bottom Sebastian dj. Pretty sure I found two.
>>290048275I guess murder isn't against the rule
>>290048389I see this is what anon meant by too much fagging
>>290049023Hey ciel's brother is here too
>>290056596Oh now I get it
>>290051452Maybe I'm reading too much but it feels like all of them were shocked, not just one guy
>>290051710Thanks OPtoo much fagging, indeed
>>290048997Only a demon. And even then, only most of the time.>>290067942They're all staring wide eyed at Ciel. So yeah, they're reacting to the name, not to Violet's reaction.
>>290062865Mangaka said there won't be an happy ending.
Did Ciel have to go to school for this? Sebastian could've been the only one doing the infiltrating. Like imagine if it was Ciel's dad who got the order to investigate the school, how would he have done it?
>>290068578Ciel needs to pretend to do some work , or the Queen gets angry again
>>290048296Goofy top panel
>>290068578Housemasters are just employees, so I don't think they could get close to the headmaster in the same way a student can.
not yet
>>290068578Ciel, rightfully, doesn't trust Sebastian unchaperoned for more than preliminary investigation.
>>290068975Imagine if he was placed in such a manner that he was sitting right on top of the speech bubble.
>>290071741Next
