Anime & Manga Characters

Ciel Phantomhive

  Voiced by Maaya Sakamoto (JP) and Brina Palencia (ENG)

"I'm arrogant, but not so much that I'd irresponsibly save someone just to brag about it."

  • Adorably Precocious Child: Usually very solemn and composed, he is very committed to his jobs (running the Phantomhive family business, and fighting supernatural evil). Slightly different from the norm in that most people take him quite seriously, at least the ones who know him well.
  • Always Save the Girl: As of the most recent chapter, he's definitely this toward Elizabeth. He threw himself in front of a bear for her chapters ago, but most recently he's taken to doing whatever he has to do to make sure she's safe from a ship load of zombies. Her mother, who's normally overprotective, calmed down upon finding out that her daughter was with Ciel because she knew he'd protect her. That's a pretty high level of trust there!
    • Subverted something fierce in chapter 57, as it turns out Elizabeth was more badass than him all along and ends up saving him.
    • Pulled it again in chapter 58, even though Lizzie saved him. He doesn't want her trapped on a sinking ship rife with zombies and shinigami, even if Sebastian and him are staying on board, so he has Sebastian knock her out and give her over to her brother.
  • Anti-Hero: Type IV or type V in the anime, Villain Protagonist in the manga.
  • Aristocrats Are Evil
  • Authority Equals Asskicking: Subverted, as although he holds the highest rank in the Phantomhive Household (not to mention the fact that he works as the Queen's freaking watchdog), he's also a bit of a pansy, and likely the most physically incapable in the entire series.
  • Badass
  • Bad Guys Play Pool
  • Barehanded Blade Block: Against Alois.
  • Beautiful Dreamer: Subverted in that everyone seems to like watching him sleep, so it can be taken in a non-romantic way as well.
  • Because Destiny Says So: In the manga, Ciel's goal is to torture and kill the people who killed his parents, though once this goal is complete, it is almost certain and an inescapable fate that Sebastian will eat his soul. In the anime, this is averted, as Ciel becomes a demon and Sebastian is unable to take his soul.
  • Being Tortured Makes You Evil
  • Birthday Hater: His tenth birthday was the day his house burned down with both parents inside. And he was kidnapped, and taken off to be a slave to a cult. Really great birthday!
  • Blue Eyes: Well, one of them, anyway...
  • A Boy and His X: A boy and his demon butler.
  • Break the Cutie
  • Broken Ace
  • Byronic Hero: A very young example, but he still fits this trope to a T.
  • The Chessmaster: Proved it during the murder mystery arc where he planned out and orchestrated the entire event. To sum it up he basically allows the murder mystery to play out all while knowing who the true killer was, keeping everyone else from finding out, placing the blame on someone else in order to complete the mission given to him from the queen, all while not only keeping suspicion off of himself, but also making himself seem like a victim. Then very end where he only tells one character based off of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle of his scheme because he wanted to motivate him to continue to write mystery novels.
    • Also, with a few well chosen words towards Snake, Ciel turned a former enemy into another one of his devoted servants.
  • Cannot Tell a Joke: It takes him all night to make Undertaker even utter a simple "...hah."
  • Cold-Blooded Torture: Performed on him by the cultists seen in his backstory.
  • The Comically Serious
  • Corrupt the Cutie: Pretty much what the cult did to him. It becomes apparent throughout the series that Sebastian may be slowly making it worse (see rule number 43.
  • Creepy Child
  • Cross-Dressing Voices: In both sub and dub.
  • Curtains Match the Window: Moreso in the anime than the manga.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: His parents were killed, his house was burnt down, he was kidnapped, sold, and used as a sacrifice for a cult. Then he met Sebastian and sold his soul to him.
  • Deal with the Devil: With Sebastian.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Anime-only, for the most part. In the manga he's portrayed mainly as The Comically Serious.
  • Deceased Parents Are the Best
  • Defrosting Iceking: He has become significantly nicer towards people, at times even swallowing his pride to make Lizzy happy or showing concern for Snake and even Sebastian.
  • Distressed Dude: For all of his vocal badassery Ciel is actually not that skilled in combat. He constantly has to be saved by Sebastian as their deal dictates. However, it is not only Sebastian. As it turns out he is this for his fiancée Elizabeth too.
  • The Dog Bites Back: After Ciel's parents were killed, his house was burnt down, he was kidnapped, and he was tortured, he decided that he would seek out the person/people who killed his parents and deliver to them the same pain that he went through. Along the way he also decided that he doesn't mind killing people who get in the way of his plans.
  • Dude Looks Like a Lady: Joker even had to ask if he was a boy to make sure.
  • Escapist Character: An incredibly rich Teen Genius that nearly everyone loves and respects who has an almighty Bishonen Battle Butler that can grant his every wish and can be extremely close to him at times? Not to mention his Dark and Troubled Past (which he was 'rescued from' by the aforementioned butler), Even the Guys Want Him, he works for the queen, and he owns one of the largest toy companies in Britain.
  • Even Bad Boys Love Their Mamas: Even now, Ciel loves the deceased Rachel and Vincent.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Ciel deeply cares for Elizabeth and his (deceased) parents and aunt. At one point in the anime, he even stops Sebastian from hunting down Grell because he "doesn't want Lizzie to witness anymore bloodshed."
  • Even the Guys Want Him
  • Evil Brit: This takes place in Britain after all.
  • Evil Eye
  • Expy: Of Artemis Fowl from Eon Colfer's book series of the same name.
  • Eyepatch of Power: Because walking around with a demon's seal available to anyone who looks you in the eyes is kind of gauche.
  • Fish Out of Water: The circus arc shows that Ciel doesn't take well to unfamiliar territories, i.e., actually having to work.
  • A Glass of Chianti: Occasionally.
  • Hates Being Touched: He appears to not enjoy physical contact, though he tolerates Sebastian and does not complain when the demon picks him up or holds him. If he is stressed, he will slap someone touching him away, proclaiming, "Don't touch me so easily!" This is a negative influence of the trauma he underwent during his time as a slave.
  • Hollywood Atheist
  • Ill Boy: He suffers from asthma, for one.
  • Improbable Age: Ciel is the leader of a popular toys and candy company, is working for the queen as a black ops/assassin, owns a mansion, and is rich from the money he inherited when his parents died. He is also only 13 years old, and this whole situation likely started around three years ago.
    • He's also highly skilled at pool to the point that he can beat a bunch of adults, despite being so short he actually has to sit on the pool table to make a shot.
  • Informed Ability: The first few volumes have characters like Sebastian and Madame Red waxing poetic about Ciel's chessmaster skills before he does anything even remotely close to chessmaster status.
  • Innocent Prodigy: Sebastian outright says in the murder mystery arc that Ciel is still a child despite being the head of the Phantomhive manor.
  • In-Series Nickname: "The Queen's watchdog/guard dog," one of the "evil noblemen."
  • I Owe You My Life: In a very literal sense towards Sebastian.
  • Jade-Colored Glasses
  • Kubrick Stare
  • Laughing Mad: After all the crap he pulled during the circus arc, he ventures off to the workhouse they were told about only to find out that it's in ruins. Ciel finds this darkly amusing.
  • Little Mister Snarker: Again, mostly in the anime, as the manga portrays more as The Comically Serious.
  • Little Professor Dialog
  • Man of Wealth and Taste
  • Mark of the Beast
  • Mismatched Eyes: The eye that isn't blue is purple and has Sebastian's seal on it. By the rules of demon contracts, the more visible the spot you put the mark, the more power you get - and what's more visible than your eye?
  • Nice Hat: Ciel has many a fancy hat, particularly his top hat.
  • Non-Action Guy/Non-Action Snarker: A rare inversion, as he's the main character and he's far from being a Butt Monkey; he's simply physically weak. Ciel generally sits in the sidelines and watches Sebastian doing the fighting.
  • Non-Idle Rich
  • Not So Stoic: When he breaks down, he breaks down.
  • Odd Couple: With Sebastian.
  • Perpetual Frowner: Moreso in the anime than in the manga. Especially in the second season, where you can count on one hand the number of times he smiles, even if it's just a smirk.
  • Please Don't Leave Me: His breakdown over Sebastian's "death" in the murder mystery arc can be considered this, although later on this is subverted, as they were just acting.
  • Power At a Price: He sells his soul in return for help from Sebastian in succeeding in all of his goals, including killing his parents' murderer[s]. After that last goal is finished, Sebastian will be able to take Ciel's soul.
  • Pride: Ciel seems very proud of his status.
  • Rags to Riches: An interesting aversion in that he went from riches to (being tortured in) rags, then back again.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Anime-only. When he gets turned into a demon, his eyes can glow an eerie fuschia.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Blue Oni to Alois's Red Oni.
    • To a lesser extent, the Blue to Sebastian's red as well. Mostly only in the anime though.
  • Royal Brat
  • Screw the Rules, I Have Connections: The reason that he can usually get away with killing anyone he wants without any consequences.
  • Security Blanket: There is a specific pillow that he cannot sleep without. Subverted, as it is later revealed that it was just an excuse to hide the blood on Sebastian's chest.
  • Slouch of Villainy: He slouches when he's about to do something particularly nasty, and unless he is standing up, almost always gives orders to Sebastian exclusively in this pose. Also, he does it in almost all the official art.
  • Spoiled Brat: Sebastian certainly thinks so.
  • Smart People Play Chess
  • The Snark Knight
  • The Stoic: Though he can get very angry, his default personality in the manga seems to be pretty stoic.
  • Supernatural Is Purple: His Eyepatch of Power hides his cursed, mismatched eye that holds the symbol of his contract with Sebastian. It's purple, and glows with an eerie neon when he gives Sebastian an order.
  • Sympathetic Murderer: As if you didn't want to give him a big ol' hug when he Ordered Sebastian to kill Baron Kelvin and set a bunch of kids on fire.
  • Teen Genius: Although he's not a clichéd teen and appears to add up more with the Child Prodigy trope, he is in fact 13 and qualifies as a teenager.
  • Those Two Bad Guys: When partnered with Sebastian.
  • Troubled but Cute
  • Troubling Unchildlike Behavior
  • Unable to Cry: He could cry when he was younger, but now he apparently can't. The closest he has come to since then was when his eyes got watery in chapter 34.
  • Used to Be a Sweet Kid
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Type 2 is one way to interpret his relationship with Sebastian.
  • Weirdness Magnet
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: In the manga, it's become apparent that Ciel is either afraid of his Dark and Troubled Past, knives/sharp objects (since he always seems to react particularly stronger emotionally if they are involved), or both.
  • Wicked Cultured
  • Wise Beyond Their Years
  • You Gotta Have Blue Hair

Sebastian Michaelis

"Even though I dislike being kicked by others, I do enjoy the feeling of kicking others."

 Woman: I can see the Gates of Heaven!

Sebastian: (unamused) Oh I highly doubt that.

  • Sexy Discretion Shot: At the end of the first anime when he leans into Ciel to devour his soul. It looks as though soul-devouring requires some mouth action, but the scene just fades before he gets too close.
    • Also, his sex scenes with Beast in the manga and Matilda in the anime.
  • Slasher Smile: Occasionally.
  • Snark to Snark Combat/Volleying Insults: With Claude in the second season of the anime. Their interactions usually include backhanded "compliments" and snarking about the other's butler aesthetics.
  • Tall, Dark and Handsome: He fits this trope to a T.
  • The Charmer: The sex god trope listed above why he fits this trope also
  • The Coats Are Off: He removes his tailcoat in his fight with Grell, and that's when things really get down.
  • Those Two Bad Guys: When partnered with Ciel.
  • Unwitting Pawn: In the final episode of Season 2, he kills Claude and escapes being bound to Alois for all of eternity only to be bound to a demonic Ciel for all of eternity.
  • Villain Protagonist
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Type 2 is one way to interpret his relationship with Ciel.
