Summery/Plot: Ciel Phantomhive, "who is thirteen" is head of the noble Phantomhive family and the owner of the Funtom toy company in Victorian England. Ciel has a tragic past but he doesn't let that stop him from doing his job and I'm not talking about the toy company. By day he's a upstanding upperclassmen, but at night he has a much darker role to play in society. He and his butler ,who is more than he seems, are charged with monitoring England's darker side.

My opinion- The reason I watched this anime was because a friend suggested it but it wasn't as good as I had hoped. Jest like Attack on Titan, it has a huge fandom behind it yet I feel it wasn't that good of a anime. The animation was pretty good and over all the plot was ok too, but the best part about the anime was the characters. The characters ranged from funny and memorable too "I really want that guy to die", All the characters have fun and wild personalities and some you cant help but fall in love with. My personal favorite characters were Grell Sutcliff and the undertaker for reasons that are obvious when you watch the anime. I do suggest this anime especially if you are onto the darker anime's. Also a fun fact about this anime was that it was supposed to be a heard core yaoi, but the producer thought it would be better if it just gave hints about their relationship. (For those of you who don't know what a yaoi is, it's  a Japans term for boy love boy)
