Good News
Hello, I am very full now but also feel very sick, *cough, cough* Anyway I am here to inform fellow fujoshi (mainly those anime and manga ones) that the 'Kuroshitsuji' (黒執事) animation is out!!! Another news, the 'Junjo Romantica' season 2 is out as well. Although I did not like the first season, there's no harm watching.
黒執事 This is a story about the head of the Phantomhive family (the largest toy company), Ciel Phantomhive, and his butler (servant) Sebastian (who is supposed to be a demon)
For the manga version, I have only read 4 so far. I like the drawing, espacially Ciel Phantomhive (he's very moe for a shota-con like me). Sebastian is talented, strong, good looking, caring....... He's got everything, the 100% perfect butler. I do not really know how the story goes and what is the focus of this manga from what I have read so far. It seems to slowly reveal the truth behind the Phantomhive family through a series of events. Sometimes, the story invovles the mafia/underground society, the nobilities and the shinigami or other demons.
As for the animation, it was released last week. Everything's alright (similar to the manga in artistic aspect) except that the Sebastian looks very sly and 'disgusting' sometimes (they drew him way too 娘，so as to give him this 诱惑 look. ) I concluded from the episode 2 preview that the story progresses much faster in the animation than in the manga.
Personally, I think it's quite a good series. You may want to check it out if you are a shota-con or if you moe butler-master relationship.
Next up, Junjo Romantica!! To be honest, I do not like it at all! The story is messy, like many things are occurring parallel to each other. There's no focus. Can you imagine a 12 episode animation that talks about 3 couples? How much stuff can they squeez in? It's just very messy. Yet, there are some other people who like this series. (This is purely my own opinion, NO OFFENCE. I apologise to those who like it)
Anyway, the season two is out so watch it if you like it.
Something to add: Sebastian, this is a common name for butlers (the Japanese think). Almost all the butlers in Japanese anime/manga have this name. Thus, people sometimes just address butlers as Sebastian in general(they are now equivalent). Next, 'Sebastian-master' relationship is also quite popular among fujoshi. Usually Sebastian will be the uke and his master is the seme. Rarely, the Sebastian also plays the role of a seme (like in kuroshitsuji?). I prefer the second one because it's quite an irony.
MOO~ LMN is sick due to overworking. Having a fever now so going to see a doctor after LMN post this.
Please take care of your health, it's more important than anything!!
