Black Butler (anime)/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Ciel and Sebastian come home to discover that the entire manor, servants included, has been cutesyfied by Lizzi.

Ciel:"My manor..."

  • Just a bit later, Lizzy puts a frilly pink flowery bonnet on Sebastian's head. The servants are amused. He isn't.
  • Ciel's inward horrified reactions at Viscount Druitt's advances in episode 4, as well as his reaction when he finds out Lizzy is there too.
  • Sebastian training Pluto with a Carrot/Stick method.
  • During one episode of the first season, Sebastian explains why he has such a preference for cats over dogs to Ciel. After he finishes talking, Ciel, in a rare moment of humor, barks at him.
  • When Ciel is detailing the characteristics of a string of murder victims, Sebastian voices his affirmative in increasingly loud yeses. Ciel looks around to find his butler... fondling a cat with "black, midnight hair" and etc.
  • Season 1 episode 14:

Ciel: "Have you concocted a curry better than Agni's yet?"
(flashback shot of chibi Soma in a food coma)
Sebastian: "No. According to Prince Soma, something is still lacking."
Ciel: "Then get back to the kitchen and stop wasting your time making cakes. You have more important things to do."
Sebastian: "Yes, I understand, my Lord."
Ciel: "And anyway, I'm not really in the mood for chocolate right now. Drop it into the curry or something."
Sebastian: "Indeed, my young master."

    • Gets even funnier in the next episode, when we see that in the curry competition, Sebastian really does put chocolate into his curry. And it works.
  • This troper found it particularly hilarious in episode 19, when Sebastian is getting tortured for information

Sebastian: Yes... I am the cause of the Black Plague in 1666.

  • When we meet Lizzy for the first time.
    • Ciel and Sebastian have just gotten home, only to find that the mansion has been 'cute'-efied floor to ceiling, the servants and maid are utterly terrified of Lizzy, and to top it all off, Grell, who has been fully decorated, is hanging from the ceiling. When asked what he's doing, he answers with "I'm dying."
    • And in the same episode, Lizzy forces Grell to wear a white, poofy, over-the-top girly dress. Grell's only complaint? He wishes it was a RED dress. Also, Sebastian in a pink bonnet. Just...Sebastian in a pink bonnet. Not to mention his expression.
  • This troper found any scene involving Paula's bells in the anime hilarious.

Lizzy: Paula, THE BELLS!
Paula: Jingle jingle!
