Season two introduces a new boy and butler combo and takes the original pair’s exploits to a whole new level. The anime goes on to fully explain who destroyed Ciel’s parents and mansion, and furthermore shows why they did what they did. William's circus disguise, which is an awful lot like his normal self, with the exception of a wacky tie. The anime and manga share a couple of key story arcs, namely the Jack the Ripper killings and the curry festival, but after that, the two couldn’t be more different.
#Black butler season 2 characters series
Anime series such as Vampire Knight, Fruits Basket, and Ouran High School Host Club all have perfectly satisfying endings, but lucky for us fans, you can read the manga to pick up where the anime leaves off and get the whole story. Most of the manga that I’ve read has the same basic story as told in the anime version, but then it keeps going where the anime left off. What’s so interesting about the Black Butler manga, though, is that it takes such a drastically different turn from the anime.
(If you’re completely unfamiliar with the story of Black Butler, try reading here first, then here, here, and of course here.) After watching season one, there was no question that I would pick up the manga in order to find out even more about Sebastian, Ciel, and all of the many colourful characters who cross their paths. As anyone who has read even a handful of entries on Otaku Haiku knows, I’m pretty much obsessed with Black Butler ( Kuroshitsuji), especially Sebastian Michaelis, my demonic true love.
That being said, I just finished reading the latest English volume of the Black Butler manga, and I really want to highlight it here because the story differs so vastly from the anime. Joker, the ringmaster of Noah's Ark, bonds with "Smile" (aka Ciel).
