Sinopsis of Kuroshitsuji
Young Ciel Phantomhive is known as the “Queen's
Watchdog,” as he handles the many disturbing events that occur during Victorian
England for Her Majesty. With the help of Sebastian Michaelis, his loyal butler
with seemingly inhuman abilities, Ciel uses any means necessary to get the job
done. But is there more to this black-clad butler than meets the eye?
In Ciel's past lies a tragedy that enveloped him in
perennial darkness: during one of his darkest moments, he formed a contract
with Sebastian, a demon, trading his soul in exchange for revenge on those who
threatened him. Now, Sebastian is not only a great butler, but he is also the
perfect servant to carry out his master's orders, while he waits patiently for
the delicious meal that he will eventually prepare with Ciel's soul.
