In this volume I'm reminded how much of a dick Ciel and Sebastian are...to anyone in general.
Seriously, I want to slap that boy across the face. With my High-School-Graduation-Ring-hand!
And poor Snake. I STILL have not forgotten what Ciel did to Joker and his circus troupe!
NEVER. FORGET!
But yay, he's so cute anyway...says Goethe.
I hope he's a permanent new staple in the Phantomhive manor --says Wilde.
Okay I'll stop with the weird referral-to-snakes-as-if-they're-actually-thinking...says Emily.
Elizabeth annoys me. I have a disdain for all aristocratic females because 1) They're secluded in their pretty manors so they can't possibly know what hard work is , and 2) They can't possibly know what true pain and suffering is since they're done up like dolls and supposed to act pretty and ladylike.
Ugh...Why do I read this manga despite having a strong HATRED for aristocrats? God I would be such good chums with the guerillas during the Revolutionary War. Mwahaha...

House murder case was a bore-fest but I am enjoying the new addition to the Phantomhive Household -- Snake.

The last chapters of "Book of Murder" and I have to say it is a fun little arc. Not my favorite one (that is Book of Circus) but I like the murder mystery, Agatha Christie with supernatural elements, vibes it was going for. And also the proper introduction of a new character (I won't spoil).
The other half of this manga is the new arc; Book of Atlantic. Ciel en Sebastian with the addition of a new servant are boarding a ship called The Campania. On this ship is supposed to be a secret association who are bringing the dead back to life.
I watched the movie this week and loved the lore we got in it from a fan favorite, The Undertaker. ALSO WE GOT A PANEL OF RONALD KNOX!!!! Otherwise known as husband #3.
Let's see how the plot is going t be handled in the manga vs the anime!

و توییست اصلی مشخص شد که نشون داد چرا لرد گری اینقدر رو مخه. و با وجود اینکه به طور کلی واقعا مخالفم که سباستین کوچکترین اهمیتی خارج از دستورات شیل بهش میده، ولی اینکه با این توجهات کوچیک بهش تفریح میکنه، خیلی زیباست.
من ارک اتلانتیک رو خیلی دوست ندارم که ناشی از مشکل بزرگم با زامبیاست، ولی انتظار برای اندرتیکر و گوگولی بودن اسنیک جبران میکنتش.
حماقت زیاد اطرافیان شیل هم ستودنیه 乁 ˘ o ˘ ㄏ

Ciel really lied to Snake that the circus group is alive 😭 and is now using him as a servant.
That was sad 🥴

This is the 11th volume in the Black Butler series. I have been really enjoying this manga series overall. I thought volume 10 was weaker than the rest of the series. This volume is better again; although not as spectacular as some of the volumes before 10.
In this volume the events of the last two volumes are explained in detail with all revealed. Then Ciel and Sebastian end up on a cruise ship with Ciel’s intended. Most of the people think that Ciel is taking a well deserved break but little do they know that really Ciel is following rumors of the Aurora Society, a Society that claims to be able to wake the dead.
It was nice to have the events of the previous two volumes explained in detail (I was still a bit confused about why what happened happened in volume 10). I am also happy to have that story line tied up because, while it was very tongue in cheek and somewhat entertaining, I was ready to move on.
The last third of this book puts the reader in an interesting place. We are on a cruise ship with a society that claims to be able to raise the dead (oh boy...this scenario is just begging for trouble).
It was wonderful to have Sebastian back in the story. The Undertaker is also in the story for the last part of the book (he is one of my favorite characters).
The illustration continues to be beautifully done. I really enjoy the high quality and entertainment value of these mangas.
Overall an excellent continuation of this manga series. I continue to find this manga series highly entertaining and very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend to those who enjoy Victorian paranormal themes to their manga.

Sebastian certainly is weird and vain! His story about the black cat was so funny! He is so crazy about cats... and that he had to show up in his most humiliating appearance when he was 'dead'! hahaha, and he certainly moved a lot during the case; Ciel makes him work so hard. But that scene of Ciel crying over Sebastian's dead body... arghhhh it was just acting :(
It was a surprise that Arthur C. Doyle was told the truth; but again, it was a nice twist, showing him then in the future, as the great writer he was.
And the appearance of The Snake... I was like WTH! I was so willing to leave that volume behind (everything that relates to the circus). Thank God, so far he is harmless and came to work as a footman in the mansion.
Then, the chapters in the ship... Lucky Lizzy, making Ciel happy. Finally Ciel takes a couple of days as holiday, going into a ship with Lizzy's family. It was strange to see Sebastian dress up (or should I say, combed in that way) to enter the society.
And then... WTH! The Phoenix Pose! Ciel and Sebastian making the Phoenix Pose! That was so unexpected it was funny. Actually, there are several funny moments in this volume: Viscount Druitt (every one of his scenes are great) flirting with Ciel! Ciel saying Sebastian is his father! And it was great the appearances of the Undertaker, as usual, and a new Reaper, Ronald Know.
Next volume: Zombies! This manga is so unexpected.

You are getting more and more ridiculous with each volume. Le sigh. Should I just abandon you and find a new manga that will help me boost my Goodreads Reading Challenge or should I stay committed to you? I'll probably keep reading you but it's time to get unfaithful and look for some new and more interesting manga that I can read besides you. Yeah, you heard that right.
You know, sometimes you're pretty fun and entertaining, so please get back to your volume 3-5 roots. Back then I still liked you. Quite a lot, actually. And I really don't feel like quitting you now that I've spent so much time with you. But just don't expect me to stay faithful to you because you've just disappointed me so many times already.

God, I'm starting to hate how the anime ruined the manga for me. I used to think the story was overhyped and not really worth all the attention. But the manga is so good. Like, I'm getting so emotionally involved with these characters it's ridiculous. I just love Sebastian so much, okay?!
November 28, 2017
Well that explained a lot. And now it's off to start solving a new mystery which is already getting pretty crazy.
Reread: That was very complex. Wow. And now it's off to the beginning of one of my favorite storylines in this series.

The Book of Murder arc is possibly my favorite plot line, and this volume is definitely one of my favorite volumes of the series.
Chapters 48 and 49 are the pinnacle of humor and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Ya decía yo que parecía poco creíble que ese personaje fuera el culpable de los asesinatos, y no me equivocaba.
En comparación con el tomo anterior, creo que sí que ha arreglado un poco ese final y la explicación general del caso; sobre todo me alegra que Snake vuelva a formar parte de la historia, porque es un personaje que me gusta mucho.
Respecto a los mayordomos de la reina, hay algo que no me acaba de gustar de ellos, y a lo mejor tiene que ver con lo mucho que la lían en el anime. I don’t know, espero que definitivamente no sea tan malo el manga como la serie.
Y, por último, de verdad que deseaba con todas mis fuerzas que la trama de Book of Atlantis no fuera canon en el manga. No es que no me gustase, sino que el causante de toda esa problemática en la película era un personaje que me gustaba mucho, y que creo que se fastidió un poco con ese arco.
En fin, solo me queda seguir leyendo para averiguar cómo va a avanzar la cosa, aunque me gustaría que los arcos tuvieran más relación entre sí y no se sintiesen como anécdotas aleatorias e inconexas.

I really loved this arc! I feel like we really got to see the love within the manner with this one, between watching the house staff take care of Ceil after Sebastian's "death" and at his funeral, to seeing how much time Sebastian has put into caring for everyone in the manner and everyone's reaction to his "death" and how he "came back". Sebastian scaring the author into writing more was another one of my favorite parts in the series so far. Very happy to be seeing more creepy Sebastian.

Me ha gustado mucho ver cómo se descubre quién realmente y sobre todo cómo se ha llegado a resolver todo. Tenía mis sospechas y para variar me he equivocado aunque seguía teniendo mis sospechas de quién podía ser el culpable.
Empezamos con una nueva aventura en un barco que este me recuerda al Titanic, espero que no se hundan!

C'est finalement grey le vrai tueur, ce qui est vraiment étonnant. Le rôle dela reine et les liens qu'elle entretient sont vraiment spéciaux ...
Quelle surprise de revoir Snake même si j'ai horreur de la façons dont Ciel le considère, j'ai hâte de le vopir un peu plus.
Pour ce nouvel arc, j'ai hâte dedécouvrir les nouveaux personnages.

Since I didn't pay much attention to the mystery in the previous books, I wasn't terribly impressed with the chapters telling me that everything I thought I knew (I knew nothing) was wrong. But I like the move onto the cruise at the end, and I'm glad snack-boy is sticking around.

We get a series of increasingly bizarre reveal chapters for the end of the Sherlockian mystery, and then we are launched into the Zombie Ship arc.
