I watched the anime "" about a month ago. And to be honest, she squeaked like a little girl

Greetings to all readers of my review. Another Japanese anime series, “Black Butler,” aroused great interest among viewers and gained popularity.

Events take place in England. The main character is a young 12-year-old count named Ciel Phantomhive, nicknamed “the queen’s chain dog.”

It is around him that the whole plot revolves. He lost his parents and from them he inherited the family estate and the Phantom company. His behavior is that of a mature person.

I’ll say right away that I don’t like films and cartoons of this kind, when the topic of demons and otherworldly forces is touched upon. This anime is built on this dark theme, which has recently attracted modern society.

Demon Servant Sebastian Michaelis and there is that same dark character, the butler, who is ready to carry out any order of his master. He is actually a demon who must protect him from death because a deal was once made with him. If you imagine, this is a very unpleasant image theoretically. But the director managed to bring it to life on screen very beautifully and attractively.

In addition to the two main characters, Ciel and Sebastian, the series also contains many coming and going characters, which are very diverse (Ciel's bride, Ciel's aunt, undertaker, reaper, Grell. angel),

The plot is banal and standard. Many cameramen have already raised this topic many times, but they filmed with their own interpretation.

This anime made an unpleasant impression on me purely thematically, although it is fascinating and has a certain attractive magical power. Everything is built on intrigue and secrets. I don't want to discuss quality and camera work. But I think the chosen topic is unfortunate and not so harmless. It’s better not to joke about and touch on such things, all this has an impact on our emotional state and has negative consequences for the soul. But everyone has their own opinion. Although the series is based on a deep philosophical meaning.

The word "butler" appears in the title of every episode. It is worth paying tribute to the musical design of this series. A tasteful selection of classic works that I love very much.

In terms of acting, all the images are very colorful and unique. The director's style in drawing images seemed gothic to me.

Anime fans will be delighted, but not me. And this should not be watched by small children.

Thank you all for your attention to my review.

Video review

Description:
The story begins in Victorian London, on the estate of one of the noble families - Phantomhive. The family's devoted butler, Sebastian Michaels, has excellent manners, masters martial arts and mysterious demonic powers. Always ready to serve his master, the twelfth head of the Phantomhive family, Ciel.

Characters:

The main character of the shounen is Sebastian - a butler and a demon rolled into one.
From the first minutes of the series, they show how Ciel Phantomhive entered into a Contract with him, in exchange for whose soul, Sebastian will carry out any of his orders. Really anyone! Sebastian is actually a VERY extraordinary person! He can catch a bullet on the fly, can run faster than cars, can survive being riddled with bullets and much more! He is a very multifaceted personality, arrogant, imperturbable, cold-blooded, but there is always a sarcastic twinkle in his eyes. He never lies and tells the truth even if his Master doesn’t like it. He can joke with an absolutely icy expression over Ciel or with the same icy face do a dirty trick on someone. But he can also be extremely terrifying (a demon after all) with Ciel’s enemies and knows all the desires of the young Master in advance. Sebastian also does absolutely everything around the house, depriving both the gardener and the chef of work - a cook and a maid. Sebastian’s whole day is scheduled minute by minute, but he also manages to clean the house until it shines

and even bake all kinds of sweets, the sight of which we enjoy throughout the series** But most importantly, Sebastian always comes to the aid of Ciel wherever he is. Human life is nothing for him *once he killed about 100 people at a time, depriving Italy of the entire mafia*. And after every AMAZING deed of his, he says **I'm just the Butler of the Phantomhive family**

Sebastian's master is Ciel Phantomhive.
­­
A boy of about 13 years old, he lost both his parents in childhood when his house was set on fire. The Phantomhive family has long specialized in making children's toys and sweets. This is a very ancient noble family. And like all noble families, there are many skeletons in the closets. On his birthday, he He was branded by his own father and forever deprived of his access to heaven. After that, he never smiles. Ciel’s profession is solving various mysterious cases. He is the queen’s watchdog and is proud of it. The main goal is revenge for the murder of his parents.

Ciel is engaged to Lady Elizabeth, which is a very strong contrast to him. She is TOO joyful and kind**Her main goal is to see Ciel smile.

Also participating in the shounen are Finny's four servants. gardener * monstrously strong, Sebastian called him strength, no need to eat * Bard chef * everything always burns for him and his culinary art requires (dismissal)... um, work * Meiling is an extremely clumsy maid * constantly dropped everything, smashed and broke, madly in love with Sebastian * Tanaka-san, manager of the Phantomhive corporation until Ciel came of age * all he does is drink tea and laugh languidly, maybe he becomes real only for 3 minutes a day *
In general, with such a set of servants, Sebastian does everything for them, and they can only dream of work.
­­

Their rather large estate is protected by the small hellish dog Pluto, who can breathe fire but only in moments

excitement turns into a person.

Hello everyone, this is Akira)

Main plot of the anime:

The action revolves around a twelve-year-old boy named Ciel Phantomhive. Since he was left without parents and was severely bullied, he was forced to enter into a contract with one of the demons named Sebastian, but in return the demon, after fulfilling the contract, had to eat his soul. Despite all the torment that Ciel endured, his heart did not become insensitive, and he himself is still sweet and kind to others. After fulfilling the contract, Ciel was ready to give his soul to the demons, but fate played a cruel joke and the demon did not manage to taste his soul.

My opinion:

The anime is very good. The art is top notch, the appearance of the characters is very well drawn. The character's image corresponded to his character. The costumes were very realistic. Even lace fabrics were depicted. The idea of ​​the authors to divide the plot and stories of the anime into seasons was not at all bad. But personally, I would like it if the plot of the second season was in the third. After all, this season acts as a conclusion, so the additional story of the third season becomes not very interesting to watch. There are scenes here where the imagination of yaoi fans can run wild. But there are no obscene shots in the anime. The anime is very funny. There are many moments where you laugh so hard that your stomach starts to hurt. After watching this anime, I had good impressions. After all, the moments are distributed in a very organized manner. There are appropriate moments and intervals between situations so that you can laugh, cry, look at the screen with horror in your eyes, and curse the bandits with relief. The first season made me worry because of its ending - the death (as it later turned out to be fake) of one of the main characters. The second season made me cry, feeling sorry for Sebastian. It was so heavy in my soul that I couldn’t hold back my tears. And I was sad at the thought that the servants would be left alone. Well, the third season was a little disappointing, as I mentioned above, I personally did not like the plot of the third and second seasons. But in principle it is no worse than the first two. It’s true that I didn’t have any feelings when the circus performers died. I probably didn’t even feel sorry for them. Although it’s sad to know that they lived such a hard life. In a word, great anime. I advise you to look! A variety of voice acting on the site is provided. The drawing lives up to expectations. The plot is intriguing. Delicious chocolate everyone)

Good day to all! I suggest reading another review of a rather dark anime, despite many bright colors and moments. And “Black Butler” will show us all the secrets of 19th-century England. In anime, we are waiting for a sea of ​​interesting stories, adventures, as well as comedy scenes. However.. first you read the review, and then I give you the go-ahead to watch the anime. >;3

☺ A little about the plot ☻

❋A little about drawing❋
Here, as in "Bandits", the art is rather gloomy, despite the fact that in "The Butler" there are more comedic moments. No, here, of course, there are also light frames, but, surprisingly, they do not strain the eyes with their colors, but on the contrary, they even soothe. The remaining details are well drawn, which is worth the architectural structures and landscapes alone! *-* The characters turned out to be quite colorful and extraordinary, not similar to each other, as sometimes happens. Although, at first glance, when you look at it, it’s not such an unusual drawing, but you can’t take your eyes off it, because it’s very catchy.

❋Characters❋
Ciel Phantomhife - young earl of the Phantomhife family. When he was little, his parents were killed, and the boy himself was captured by some sect, but somehow managed to conclude a contract and escape. From his parents, the guy inherited the estate and the Phantom company, which specializes in the production of toys and various sweets: his direct responsibilities also include fulfilling various instructions from Queen Victoria, which are clearly not for children's eyes. At the same time, the young lord is looking for the murderers who took the lives of his parents in order to take revenge on them. On his right eye he has a pentagram - a symbol of the contract with Sebastian, to which he has long been accustomed. He is the fiancé of Elizabeth Middleford.

Sebastian Michaelis - He is Ciel's butler and bodyguard. Does his job well. And, of course, he is a demon who previously made a contract with the young count, and ultimately hopes to get the boy's soul. On his hand you can see a symbol (pentagram) this is a symbol of the contract with the little lord. And in human form, Sebastian looks like a tall, dark-haired young man who wears a dark robe (tailcoat) and always looks impeccable. He loves cats very much, but hates dogs, because the latter are loyal and do everything they are told to do.

◊ Watch AMV◊
♬A little about sound♬
To be honest, I didn't really like the voice acting. I don’t remember, of course, who voices him (she also voiced “Don’t Give Up!”), but her voice is quite high for this anime. In some dramatic moments he doesn’t fit in at all, except perhaps in comedic ones, just look for something else. There is also one problem - there are no subtitles for fans of the original. But in any case, you can be patient, but over time you get used to it. Although if someone watches it in a better voice acting, then, of course, you immediately abandon it.. /*at least that’s what happened to me >.

I'm screaming with happiness.
Just noticed this review :D
How could I have missed it? But I can say with confidence that the review was made with five stars! I watched this anime twice and rewatched all the seasons, it’s a good detective story and I like anime about ancient London, although there are very few of them. And Sebastian is cute, although I like Grell better.
The review is good, thank you for such a beautiful review, I think I’ll watch the anime again: D

Yeah, here it is, this is a great anime!

A friend often argues with me that Black Butler is not such a famous anime and does not want to watch it, but I also say that it is already a kind of classic. Personally, I am satisfied with this anime in all respects! Art, characters, plot, colors, stories , absolutely everything! For everyone who doubts whether to watch it or not, the answer is clear: WATCH!

Wonderful review. It's hard to imagine anime fans who have never encountered Black Butler. This is already a kind of classic))
As for the art, I wouldn't say it's particularly dark. In my opinion it is colorful. The phrase "don't look away" is exactly what describes the character design.
But as for the plot, in my opinion, the manga is better. Well, the last arc, “The Book of Circus,” came out excellent. In the first and second seasons, unlike the above, Sebastian and Ciel are somewhat emotionless. In the manga there are so many small skirmishes between them. Sebastian teases - Ciel gets angry. In general, this was not enough for me in the anime. But, I hope, starting with the Circus arc, they will begin to film the manga^^

Good day, dear friends. Tanya is in touch with you. How are you? Ready for a new review?

Then I present to your attention a review of the manga Black Butler.

◣◥◣◥◤◢◤◢◣◥◣◥◤◢◤◢

Young Count Ciel, the head of the Phantomhive family, lives the seemingly ordinary life of a high-society teenager: homeschooling, in a luxurious mansion in the middle of a fog-shrouded estate, social receptions, balls, management of the country's largest toy factory. But no, not everything is so simple and familiar: in the service of Ciel Phantomhive is the butler Sebastian Michaelis, who has truly inhuman abilities.

But against the general background of a comedic mystical shonen, as if by chance, serious questions slip through. Why is Sebastian so devoted to Ciel? What connects them besides hiring? What terrible secrets does Count Phantomhive's past hold? Who is Michaelis really? Secret. One thing can be said with confidence - it is not without reason that he says about himself: “I am a devilishly good butler.”

:page_facing_up: Drawing:page_facing_up:

Speaking about the drawing, I can’t talk about the negative aspects; in my opinion, there are none. The drawing is pleasing to the eye, does not stand out too much and does not detract from the reading experience. Nothing to complain about.

:bookmark_tabs: Plot:bookmark_tabs:

The plot is difficult to describe in a nutshell, but that’s what makes it interesting. Mixing genres such as detective, comedy, mystery, action, drama seems like a time bomb and, in principle, a bad idea, but this does not in any way affect the essence of the events and even embellishes them. The arcs are never boring and always original, and what's most interesting is that they reference real events. Throughout the entire reading process, the plot never seemed boring or far-fetched; everything follows from somewhere, nothing appears out of nowhere.

:clapper: Characters:clapper:

I’ll say right away, Sebastian or just Seba is my love and nothing will change that!

◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥◤◥

◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢◣◢

So, the characters are well thought out. Everyone's stories correspond to the drama genre, so you can't do without sad girls (Psst... But don't forget about the comedy!). Everyone has their own skeleton in their closet, and it would not be interesting if this skeleton were not associated with mysticism. The author managed to come up with situations that were convenient for revealing the characters, in which they interact with each other and are shown from different sides, with all their guts, so to speak. The characters are different, lively, bright and do not leave you bored on the sidelines. Yes, there are cliche characters, but they are introduced to maintain balance or just for the sake of comedy.

🧀So, my verdict🧀
