>>4421God they are such an old married couple, always bickering. Lol they can't even be nice on their honeymoon.
On that note >in this chapter you could see again that he stops and thinks more, doubts things more..
Does it seem like he's missing more things as of late? Like his danger senses are off. It's a little worrying.

I am sooo happy for this news!!!

I find this an interesting concept.

No.4503
>>4502The last time I used it was 3 years ago. I used to import merch and doujins more often but in recent years I've been slowing down and last time I bought doujins from toranoana I used Anime otaku carrying service instead. I can't say if anything changed recently but in the past Blackship has been a fine service.

Some of my favorites from chapter 217. Hah it's pretty funny that Ciel seems to struggle talking to regular people. (Who aren't his celebrity crush, Arthur Doyle) He's such a fussy dork.
As for speculations, I have a feeling Vicount Druid will make an appearance soon. First them being in a socialite's, then mention a children's ball… sounds up Vicount Druid's alley.
>>4425 it would be funny as fuck if we got a fakeout and he ended up being a shadowy man tailing them.
I also feel (and desperately hope) like we'll get something big soon. We got such a small chap this month. Hopefully something is coming up soon.

Aniplex is doing a live broadcast of the Tango on the Campania musical in a little bit.
>>4538Ciel looks so adorable hiding behind Sebastian! So pathetic!!
I will eat my own hat if Viscount Druitt ends up being an important plot relevant character and not comic relief.
Also, I have a bad feeling about the Russian woman. I bet she's involved with the blood collection somehow.

>>4550No problem nonna! I watched this one for the first time today and I was so impressed with the stage design and choreography!! I heard Tango on the Campania won awards? Completely deserved if true.
I think they'll upload the Weston school musical next week. I'm looking forward to that one the most!
No.4560
>>4554It's awesome to hear that! It truly deserved awards!
The Secret of the Public School is such a good one! The production, dances, and songs are amazing. The casting choices were fitting.
Toshiki Tateishi did great as Sebastian. He had a winning smile and really captured Sebastian's charm. Eito Konishi did great as Ciel, as well. I was surprised to learn that Eito also played Hanako in the Toilet Bound Hanako-kun musical. (I'll have to see this one day)
I'm sure you'll like it too!

>>4560I have to say Ciel being played by an adult in the public school one was a good decision. I feel a little bit bad for the child actors that play him in the other plays…
No.4562
>>4561Yeah absolutely, I wish they continued having an adult Ciel.
It was always odd to me that the earlier plays used child actors at all, considering Kuros subject nature and viewer rating. I believe the series is 18+ in Japan.
No.4563
>>4549Thank you so much for sharing this, I can't believe they're only up for a day at a time! ;__; I wish I'd caught the circus musical, but I've found someone on bilibili has uploaded all of them in slightly fuzzy quality, and at least I can replay Druitt's stupid song over and over. The projections during Lizzie's and the beginner butler flashback songs were really good, I wonder how they marked the places for the actors to line up that well.
No.4565
>>4560>>4563Oh wow they took it down really fast. I did find a Google Drive with all of the kuromyus, though. It also includes instructions for adding eng (if needed) subtitle! I'm not sure if it works with all videoplayers, but I used the VCL player and it works.

>>4578I loved this scene so much, it was so goofy!
Sebastian as a character in general seems to get a lot sillier from the luxury liner arc onward. I really enjoy how human he's become over the years and I can't wait for it to come back later and bite him in the ass as a weakness.
No.4581
>>4574Thank you again! I almost forgot to check yesterday, even with a nice download in my pocket the 1080p with google's attempt at autotranslation is an experience I could not miss. Good lord I love shit subs with randomly censored words. The mess when the cricketing started was something to behold as well, at some point it forgot cricket was a word and started spamming crikey and krikekriketokrike, and most "yes my lord" got turned into JESUS MILO!
The teaser at the end was such a mood killer though. Why on earth would they return to child actors for
that arc? Admittedly I shouldn't have been giggling at how old and tired Ciel looked in Sebastian's arms in this one (and his ear is so flushed in pink compared to the pale makeup on his face), but at least he got to lean into his ear and show leg! The child actors were never allowed to show as much skin or linger on shippy scenes. The staging for Green Witch has potential to be so much more varied and interesting than Public School, so it won't be a complete loss, but I don't understand why they wouldn't outright switch to an adult Ciel actor so they don't have to keep finding new kids and altering things to be safer for them.
No.4582
>>4581Oh lord, those captions are hilarious! Honestly, I didn't even know you could add translated captions.
Yes, it's such a weird move to go back to child actors, especially for the Green Witch Arc. I can already feel myself cringing over the scenes with Sieglinde. What were they thinking?
No.4587
>>4581>>4582Don't quote me on this but I believe the reason they didn't cast a child for the public school musical was because of covid. Because I guess children would be more vulnerable to the virus maybe?
Either way, I liked the adult actor they chose for Ciel. He's such a cute manlet I wish they'd bring him back :(
No.4634
>>4604Anon who do you think would top between Sebastian and Undertaker? I like to imagine Seb bottoming for Undertaker in a bad-ending type scenario, where he loses in a fight to Undertaker. Like in the luxury liner arc where he got pierced by the death scythe. That was some nice penetration imagery right there lol.

Btw nonna what do you think the deal with Modri Vladis is? Was he actually talking to
god or do you think he's another schizo like
the loli that stabbed Bard?
No.4658
>>4657I'm honestly so excited to see them sit together and eat. It feels so out if place for Sebastian. I wonder how he'll handle it.
Yes, I'm so curious about Vladis! I had to go back and reread the Layla chapter. It looks like they're going through the same weird behavior. It seems like they have two/multiple souls inside of one? It looked like Layla let someone take over her body to fight Ronald. But I'm just speculating. Kuro can be hard to speculate about lol. But I love how chaotic the storyline is.
What are your thoughts about the recent chapter and Vladis, nonnie?
No.4663
>>4658I don't know nonna tbh I was expecting Vladis to be a character we've already seen in the past, with the way yana kept his face hidden for a couple of chapters. I thought he was going to be Joker or another member of the circus kek but Sebastian not recognizing him means he is legitimately a new character, so it is difficult to speculate what his deal is. I really wanna know why he cuts his wrists though. If he is a bizarre doll it doesn't make any sense for him to waste the precious blood that he has…
The plot has thickened so much now that our main boys are back in action kek!
No.4667
>>4663Same, I think we may see some more of the circus troupe in the future. It's also been on my radar since Doll returned.
There's so many mysteries, so many unanswered questions. I'm excited for the next chapter!
