AFO is almost here, I just need to hold a little longer….
Sebastian is looking pretty hot in this scene....
But for now I have Kuroshitsuji to entertain me and this week I can happily report I was entertained. XD Come experience the craziness that is Ciel and his demon butler. XD
Rice balls are serious business!
Summary: Ciel and Sebastian are getting ready to board a train for some reason and the Stupid Trio is there. Finny knocks over a box containing a mummy and a worker is injuried in the process. Apologizes are issued and on the train they go. Ciel is super duper bored but he is going to solve the case of the missing kid because that is what his Queen wants. The kidnapper in on the train so Ciel decides to look around to see who the suspect could be. Ciel goes to the passenger part of the train and everyone is a freak. There is the archaeologist from earlier but since Sebastian is like a million years old he knows the mummy is a fake. There is a crazy dude ranting and raving about the train schedule and how he knows every last line. There is a Japanese couple whom no one likes for fear of cholera. And then there is a minister trying to calm everyone down but he has weird tattoos on his wrists. But never fear Abberline is HERE. He tells everyone he is sorry that they are on edge due to the fact they are transporting a dangerous murderer. That in fact does not calm everyone down. After those fun times Abberline has dinner with Ciel because he really wants to get to know Ciel since he has heard great things from his twin brother. Ciel and Sebastian leave the dining room where we see Claude eating o so slowly.
Look at all that compassion.
Ciel thinks about who could be the kidnapper when he spots someone with a wound that was caused by Finny earlier. This certainly means he is the kidnapper and the chase is on. The kidnapper runs and disconnects the last car so he and the kidnapped kid’s dad alone. Sebastian goes after them but the kidnapper reveals that he left explosions on the train that will go off when the train comes to a stop. Ciel has managed to locate the kidnapped kid (in the fact coffin) but in all the chaos the murderer breaks free and kidnaps Ciel. Sebastian makes the train change route because it was coming up on its stop but now the new path is leading to a broken down bridge. Sebastian gets back on the train and finds that there are people suffering from cholera. But the chaos really happens when Sebastian tells the passengers that they can’t stop the train or it will blow up. The murderer pops up, shows off that he has kidnapped Ciel, and runs away.
We are so screwed....
Suddenly everyone in the cabin that was deemed a suspect earlier turns out to be important in stopping the crises (the minister is a former killer who can talk on the current killer, ranting man knows a safe way to buy them 20 minutes away from the bridge, fake archaeologist knows how to dismantle a bomb, and the Japanese man has a sword). Sebastian smiles and says that’s nice losers but leave this to me because I am awesome. Sebastian throws the killer off the train, rips off the roof that has the bomb on it, and stops the train with his bare hands before it flies off the tracks. REJOICE PEOPLE. Ciel is so impressed. Also it was not cholera but food poisoning or something. As everyone leaves the train confused but happy to be alive Claude comes up to Sebastian and admonishes him for not stopping the train in a more civilized manner. But then Claude gives Sebastian an invitation to a party that is being held at Alois’s house. Ciel is all X_X about this news because that kid can never be happy. THE END!
We are all going to die!!!!
XO High School of the Dead had a really bad episode for and Kuroshitsuji surprises me with a really awesome episode 4. I am still a little MEH at the fact that Ciel is probably dead and that this is a prequel but what can you do? Maybe by the end of all this the very first episode will turn out to be the really last episode of season 1. But he is probably dead.
Enough of that! Let’s talk about this episode and how there was no Elizabeth or stupid deer messing up my face.
Yep that about sums up this episode....
This episode was pretending to be a murder mystery when really it was a comedy show. XD Almost like we were all playing a giant game of Clue and in the end we all got the middle finger. But instead of being upset we all laughed at the joke that was played on us.
Wait we are all insane?
First we have a weird supporting cast thrown at us. Some random guy who is a phony archeologist. The priest has some crazy tattoos on his arm. Some freak is screaming about train schedules. Everyone hates the old Japanese couple and their rice balls. And our favorite Scotland Yard man has a dangerous man bounded in the other room. Add in the fact Claude just happened to be on this train and could we have any more drama?
Look at that happy face.
Ciel!!! This trip was going to be loads of fun and yet you are pouting over Alois and his freaky self. I don’t think you should be pouting as you have yet to meet him. Once you are introduced to the Earl of Crazy then you can be all doom and gloom. For now rejoice that you are in a giant game of Clue. At least Sebastian was having fun.
He seems too flashy now...or then?
So….is Abberline the real one from the first series or is he this twin that was briefly mentioned? I ask because it sounds like the twin is dead but this Abberline dude is acting way different than from the first season. I know that Abberline has just met Ciel and that could account for his friendliness but it still seems off to me. So I don’t know what to believe as I thought it was implied the twin is dead but Abberline is acting way goofy. Either way his presence seems necessary for fun.
WHAT IS GOING ON?!
Of course going back and getting the screenie has allowed me to reread the sentence. I am even more confused now. X_X If this dude is not Fred then how does the second Abberline know Ciel? This HAS to be in the past as Ciel did not know the Undertaker and Grell so it is possible this is NOT Fred but then how does Fred know Ciel? DO YOU SEE MY CONFUSION?!
Good job Ciel. You are super detective! XD
Ciel manages to solve the crime because 12 year olds are way smarter in animes than they are in real life. Earlier the Stupid Trio injuried a worker and said injuried worker showed up as a passenger on the train. Such a small detail but since Ciel turned out to be right who cares that is was something most of us would overlook. It is never explained why the Queen was so worried about this missing kid or why the dude kidnapped the kid to begin with but we are supposed to just roll with it.
I love how everything went to pits so very fast. Sure Sebastian saved the captured kid’s dad in 5 seconds but now he has a real problem on his hands. He runs back to the train to find out that Ciel has been kidnapped (again), there are bombs trapped to the train, the new track he set them on is heading towards a broken down bridge, and there is an outbreak of chorea on the train. Really the only way things could get any worse was if someone started to give birth then and there.
Let's all work together ya'll!!!
The real magic of the show was when everyone who anything to do with the series came together to save the day. You know that creepy tattooed priest from earlier? Well he was a reformed killer so he can help stop that madman. But he needs a weapon! Well hello angry Japanese man you have a sword!!! But what about the bomb!? XO Have no fear the fake archeologist is here and can apparently dismantle the bomb. But what about is going off the tracks?! Remember that crazy man who memorized all the train schedules? He knows exactly how to buy us some more time and make sure we don’t fly off the tracks.
No thanks, you suck.
But what does Sebastian do? He totally kills the typical “let’s all work together to save the day” theme that happens so much in anime. He is like no thanks dudes; I can do this all my own. I mean it is nice and all that you guys think you are helpful but really sit down and let the butler deal with this. It was such a glorious moment. One second you are laughing at the absurdity of everyone being exactly the people you need to stop the crises and then you are rolling on the floor because Sebastian could care less. Glorious I tell you.
Sebastian has saved the princess!
Sebastian indeed saves the day. He flings Ciel’s kidnapper off the train (after taking a bridge to the head no less) because he is in a flinging mood. He also doesn’t know how to stop the bomb so he rips the top off the train off and throws the bomb away. And instead of redirecting the train somewhere safer he stops it with his bare hands. Because he is that awesome. Gold star Mr. Butler. Oh and also he cured the cholera outbreak as it was a mild case of mixing foods together that really shouldn’t be mixed.
I don't think I want to see his true form......
And what is Sebastian’s thank you for saving the day? Claude comes up to him and chides him for not stopping the train in a more butler like fashion. See when one is trying to stop a train with their bare hands they must be careful to make sure that the tea doesn’t spill and that the cake isn’t ruined. How about you show us how it’s done next time Claude? Oh that’s right…you’re not a main character.
But shouldn't you be happy?!
So after that fun train ride it looks like we are going to visit the Earl of Crazy and his nitpicking Butler. It looks like things are going to be slightly more serious next week so that might be yay. Also it looks like we might learn why Ciel is so pissed off at Alois and why Alois is important to Ciel’s revenge. Next week looks interesting so I have slightly renewed faith in this series.
But I still don’t want Ciel to be dead. :(

yeah i don't get what this abberline guy is supposed to be.
Kittyfo- I see that you have watched more episodes since leaving this comment but just in case. This dude actually hasn't met Ceil. His twin brother from season one did and he is dead. This is the other twin who just happens to be a cop and hangs out with the same cop dude thus trying to confuse us all.
I like this twin better. XD
i know but this anime isn't making any since to me at all.
OF COURSE! I like to think this guy is Fred's sexy older brother. This anime needs more of him.
If he is Fred's twin then the writers of the show REALLY aren't paying attention to canon. I beleive Fred says he's a only child. But this twin knows him so... Soap opera twin?
Kittyfo- Soap Opera twins are always awesome. Or like in Heroes where they are super hero triplets. XD That way you don't need to pay the cast as much.
But yeah there should have been more of him. :(
