* [[Abnormal Limb Rotation Range]]: The Dolls.
* [[Adaptation-Induced Plothole]]: Because the manga had not progressed very far when the first anime was made, there are a number of noticeable differences between the manga and the first two animesanime. In the manga, to recount some examples:
** Ciel is more mature, intelligent, and devious and counts as a real [[Villain Protagonist]].
** Sebastian is more emotional, and his true form is different.
Line 17:
** The circumstances of Ciel's parents' deaths were different.
** Ciel did not inherit a family business but founded Funtom when he was ten.
** Note that after the sequel ''[[KuroshitsujiBlack Butler II]]'' the anime adaptations drop the anime continuity and start adhering to the manga again.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]: Starting at episode 7, the anime no longer follows the manga.
** Even before that point there were divergences, such as a pair of filler episodes that added a new inhabitant to the Phantomhive manor.
Line 45:
* [[Fan Service]]: So, so much.
* [[Foreign Language Theme]]: "I'm Alive!", the first English ending theme.
* [[Gecko Ending]]: The manga [[Overtook the Manga|had not progressed far]] when the anime was made, and so the anime went with its own ending and told a self-contained story. Unlike in the usual case, the anime started laying groundwork for the ending even before it had run out of manga chapters, using episodes of what seemed to be pure filler for the manga fans to set up the main plot.
* [[Ghost Amnesia]]: The ghost of King Edward has this.
* [[Gratuitous English]]: Sebastian's "Yes, my lord."
Line 80 ⟶ 81:
* [[The Thing That Goes Doink]]: This Japanese mainstay appears in the Phantomhive garden as a part of a temporary Japanese theme.
* [[Too Kinky to Torture]]: Sebastian, Grell, and Undertaker.
* [[Utopia Justifies the Means]]: {{spoiler|Burning down London}} for purification? Okaaay.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Type 2 is one way to interpret Ciel and Sebastian's relationship.
* [[Whip It Good]]: In Episode 20, {{spoiler|Angela}} pleases all the fangirls by whipping Sebastian.
