Ciel's amazing table-cloth-pulling skills ..

A Kuroshitsuji Review : Episode 1
The beginning of episode one started out rather, erm strangely. One of my questions might've been why was there a boy wearing nothing but a blanket floating in the middle of nowhere? The blanket was probably somewhere on the short side as well. The pairing was probably what had caught my attention the most, Ciel and the butler Sebastian. A cute twelve year old boy being served by a butler twice his height, was definitely a little suggestive ;) *coughBLcough*.
I enjoyed the Victorian era theme in the anime, like Ciel and Sebastian's suits and the decorations. The maid and co was pretty hilarious throughout the episode, it was funny how they couldn't manage to do anything right ( the burnt meat, the garden, broken dishes). I loved it when the maid tried to poor wine with her broken glasses and Sebastian whispering something into her ear, so cute! The trio always ended up getting scolded by Sebastian, so they were probably my favorite characters! There was also the guy who kept on sipping on tea (sorry, I forgot his name), he had "ho-ho-ho" laugh which was funny and strange.
Sebastian's personality caught me by surprise a little bit, be seemed like a 'reserved' man who only did what his master would tell him. Yet, Sebastian was pretty much the one running things, with a perfectionist personality. Also, I love his superb table-cloth-pulling-with-everything-still-in-place skill.
At first, when Ciel was playing that board game with the Mr.Damian, I thought he was just a spoiled brat. Although later I found out that Mr.Damian was just a bad guy who sold the factory. Even so, my opinion of Ciel really didn't change, he lacked something to make him interesting, he seems like another kid who's parents died but left him this magnificent mansion and now he trusts nobody.
To be honest, the series seemed like Godchild, the pairings at least, and also the victorian era and crime solving. That was pretty much why I started this series in the first place, and after watching the first episode, it seemed like a decent anime.
NOTE: er, after reading this I sound extremely picky and pessimistic and I apologize for that. Please don't be offended by anything I say, I mean it's a good anime, I'm just picky out the bad parts~

Hello everyone, kokoro here! I've newly taken an interest in blogging, particularly in anime. Now I'm completely new at this,
so as much as I wanted to create a new layout, it's pretty impossible. It took over an hour just to get the comment bar to show
up! Anyways, I've been obsessed with anime ever since I was 10 years old. It started with cardcaptor sakura, to my current obsessions
like kuroshitsuji or NANA. Angel Sanctuary ( well anything by Kaori Yuki ), Hikaru no Go, Death Note, Black Cat or Detective Conan.
So I can't really say what genre I enjoy, if it doesn't go all stereotypically then I'd probably check it out. Putting that aside, I'm
usually fairly nice, can get high ( by that I do mean drugs ) on almost anything, and is fairly eccentric~ Oh yeah, a side note, Mystere and
I are not related, so that means we're not siblings, twins or cousins.

Hello! This is Mystere! I'm completely new to blogging and working with html,
and I'm here to help kokoro with her new blogging interests...which also became
one of mine under her constant influences ^^;; I also am interested with graphics,
in which has also been because of kokoro. So, a bit about my anime/manga past,
my very first anime would be Sailor Moon when I was about six year old,
I've also had a four year obsession with Cardcaptor Sakura <3 but not until I was about ten,
did I realize that there were almost infinitely more out there! A lot of my current
favourites are from following koko-chan's footsteps, and completely falling in love
with them~ My list ranges in genres, and including Death Note, NANA, Code Geass, Ouran
High School Host Club, Shinshi Doumei Cross, Para Kiss, xxxHolic and so on~
For personality, I'm a bit quiet, but not shy! So I will open up to about certain things
if the topic really catches my interests ^^ I can be -just a little bit of- a perfectionist sometimes,
and loves to put all my efforts when I'm given a task. I won't stop nitpicking on details until I'm satisfied~
Lastly, an add-on to Koko's side note, no we're not siblings in any way, we're best friends <333
