Kuroshitsuji (Anime; 24 episodes)
Genres: Comedy, Fantasy, Mystery, Shounen, Supernatural
Kuroshitsuji, or literally Black Butler, is a fantasy story situated in Victorian era London, England. In a manor house on the outskirts of the city, loyal butler Sebastian Michaelis serves Ciel Phantomhive, the twelve-year-old head of an English noble family and a toy and candy empire. Sebastian carries out any task required by his master, no matter how demanding it might seem. Though it seems to be like a normal noble family household, the Phantomhives have a history to serve directly under the Queen, while secretly solving the problems plaguing England with ease and perfection. And just when you think that this is enough, think again: Sebastian is a demon and has a Faustian contract with his master.
Compared to other animes where the surroundings are usually blurred out or lack details, Kuroshitsuji is one of the few animes that places emphasis on every single one of those minuet details. And considering that this story takes place in the Victorian era, anyone would be awed by the detailed architecture, even though it is “just an anime”.
One of my favorite catch-phrases from this series would probably be Sebastian’s "Because I am one hell of a butler" (わたしはあくまで執事ですから, Aku made shitsuji desu kara), where it plays on the word "demon" (あくま, akuma) and the phrase "to the end" (あくまで, aku made). It can also translate to "I am a demon and a butler".
Although it has a fantasy as one of its genres, it does not place much emphasis in that field, which will probably upset a lot of fantasy-lovers. It, however, makes it up with its intriguing mystery plotline, where the truth is usually something totally unexpected.
And let’s not forget the numerous comedy scenes that are sure to make your stomach hurt from sheer laughter…
And once again, for the love of god, please do not think of this as ‘shotacon’ as the fansites say… It is very disturbing for some otakus (like me)…
Rating: 9/10 <<<<<<<<< D
In the nutshell: Backgrounds filled with beautiful historical architecture from the Victorian era: A dream come through and a must-see for all art-loving otakus. Also highly recommended for people who love stories situated back in the past, but a dangerous pick for anyone who cannot stand a second without modern technology. Fantasy lovers may want to watch an alternative.
