Editor's P/S
As a passionate fan of the Black Butler anime series, I am thrilled about the upcoming Public School arc set to debut in Spring 2024. The anticipation for this new installment has been building ever since the announcement of its production, and I can't wait to see what adventures await Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis. The return of the original voice actors, Daisuke Ono and Maaya Sakamoto, is particularly exciting, as they have perfectly captured the essence of these beloved characters.
The Public School arc promises to bring a fresh and intriguing storyline to the Black Butler universe. The setting of a prestigious public school adds a new layer of mystery and complexity to the narrative, and I am eager to see how Ciel and Sebastian navigate this unfamiliar environment. The disappearance of multiple students, including a relative of the Queen, raises the stakes and sets the stage for an enthralling investigation. I have no doubt that this arc will be filled with the signature blend of action, drama, and dark humor that has made Black Butler such a captivating series.
