Flowermingo - Flowermingo

I am a late comer to the Black Butler fandom (I have only been in it for about 2 years at most). But I have known about it for a while, basically since it the anime started airing because my older sister was watching it with our mom, and one time when I was really young, they were talking about it in the car and I think they were talking about what characters they found attractive and so from that conversation, my little kid brain put together that BLACK BUTLER WAS THE BACHELOR BUT WITH BUTLERS! 💀 Once I was older I did learn a lot more about it and had a lot of the major plot points spoiled to me before I read the manga myself and later watched the anime when it all came to Crunchyroll.

SNAAAAaaaakkkeee 😢😭

Saw one for another fandom and couldn't resist making one for kuro lol

YANA’ S BIGGEST PIECE OF FORESHADOWING YET!!!!

Pics from chapters 7 and 213 respectively.

Was he counting how many dalliances he had? 😭

a little experimentation

I think parts of it were planned from the beginning, but she avoided any big hints, until after the Red Butler arc because it wasn’t till that was over that BB got cleared for a long serialization.

In retrospect, it's kinda funny how obvious the twin theory became in this arc, but back then I legitimately thought that the "other Ciel" in the chessboard scene was just symbolic for Ciel's past innocent self or something like that.

HOW REAL ARE RELIGION AND GODS IN BLACK BUTLER?

I was re-reading the Curry Arc and noticed that Sebastian made some interesting comments..

In the first panel, chap. 16, Sebastian seems to express concern? about running into Kali, the goddess in question, if/ when he goes to India. The way he says it, and the other characters confusion, seems to led credence to my interpretation, which is that Sebastian said it in a way that acknowledged gods as real.

In panel two, chap. 17, Sebastian basically says that gods are real and pulls a face like he is recalling an unpleasant experience with some of them!

In panels three and four, chap. 18, the group is talking about Agni’s powers, and Sebastian brings up various different belief based powers, and clearly it has some sort of real power behind it because Agni was able to go toe to toe with Sebastian!

There has got to be something there with the way Sebastian talks about gods, but I don’t think Yana has given any clarification on what Sebastian meant, so fan theories and head cannons it is I guess.

Also just remembered something right after I hit post, Sebastian literally told o!Ciel that one of the reasons why he was able to summon him is because Ciel completely denounced god so clearly in some capacity god is real in the BB universe if denouncing him holds that much weight!

A while back, I got the Black Butler art books, and the scream I let out when I saw the Mononoke drawings!

Sorry for the poor quality. Also these are in book 1.
