The Black Butler anime makes its much-anticipated return with a new anime season titled the Public School Arc on April 13, 2024 that adapts more of the manga series written by Yana Toboso. It is arriving on Crunchyroll’s platform. A-1 Pictures animated the previous seasons of Black Butler, but CloverWorks (The Promised Neverland, Bocchi the Rock!) is animating the upcoming season.
If you are new to the series, Black Butler is set a stone’s throw away from the bustling streets of London where a magnificent manor that houses the esteemed Phantomhive earldom lies. Within its grand halls resides none other than the enigmatic Ciel Phantomhive, the young master of the household.
Though a mere twelve years of age, Earl Phantomhive possesses a towering presence in the realm of commerce and faithfully serves Queen Victoria herself. Donning the role of a loyal butler, Sebastian, a paragon of unwavering devotion, remains perpetually by Ciel’s side, poised to fulfill his every command.
Whether summoned to salvage a soirée teetering on the edge of disaster or to delve into the depths of London’s concealed enigmas, Sebastian proves himself capable of almost any feat. Indeed, one might even argue that Sebastian’s virtuosity transcends the boundaries of humanity, rendering him a figure seemingly too remarkable to be real.
