Kuroshitsuji 2 - Episode 1

What a fantastic fake-out! I totally thought that they were going to dump the main characters from the last series and start with a new set. The trailers didn't show anything with Sebastian and Ciel, nor were they mentioned anywhere in the summaries. If Claude and the brat Alois were to be the main characters, I would dump it for sure.

Ah, but then the squee-worthy moment arrives when Sebastian reveals himself. During the flight from Alois' mansion, Sebastian starts to say his "I'm a hell of a butler" line, but stops short, saying that it's too soon.

At the very end, Sebastian puts the blue diamond ring on Ciel's hand and tells him that it's time to wake up. The best part is the acknowledgement of the feint during the next episode's preview.

You know you love a character when you shout for joy when they appear on the screen. Can't wait for the next episode!
