tacuma | Kuroshitsuji in Aniway

So, did any of you Dutchies read the article in Aniway about Kuroshitsuji? There is this most awesome Kuro poster in it, which is making my wall even more awesome than it already was (even thought I promised not to put up more posters)!

But back to the article, I think we found a guy that is PMS-ing!! Why else would he write about Kuro being such a bad series? Did he even bother to read it? I think he was really negative, even before reading it, and didn't want to see anything positive about it, just because so many yaoi fans love it. If he knew he wouldn't start liking it he shouldn't have agreed on writing the damn article.

He says Sebastian is boring because he is perfect! O_o Okay, please leave me a comment and tell me if you think Sebastian is boring and making the story boring! Doesn't his perfectness makes you wonder how he is going to solve the next difficult problem?

He says Kuroshitsuji is predictable. He probably never reached the part about Noa's arc or better, the zombie filled ship. They contain things I think were not predictable at all.

He says the first chaps are only written to get Sebastian en Ciel in one room. Okay, gotta agree that the beginning is especially lovey-dovey. But normal people call that an introduction (but a PMS-ing guy is not normal, so can't expect much of him, can we?). We gotta get to know the characters and the way they live right? And the lovey-dovey-ness is all fake, because there is so much blood and death in the later chapters!

He says the side characters are a bit cliche and don't have much of a background. Either read more of the manga or watch the anime already. There we get to know more about Bard, Finnian and Maylin and why they are so clumsy. And even if they were super flat characters, gotta love at least one of them, ne?

He is allowed to have his own opinion about Kuro, but he didn't start reading this with an open mind. He could only think about the big, bad yaoi and couldn't see the wonderful story that's behind the love between master and butler. Kinda sad.

No, there really is more than just yaoi hints. First manga is the big introduction of the characters, the setting and the possibilities. Lots of hints. One big hint probably. But in the second volume there is the Madame Red case already and that is so much deeper than yaoi. It's so awesome, even if you would have seriously ugly characters in their place! There are so many awesome stories in it that are fun to read, even if Sebastian wouldn't be carrying Ciel around!

I watched the entire anime, and it just didn't capture me. I can't relate to any of the characters either, which is usually an important point for me too. ^^ And I don't like the graphic violence. But that's probably just me being weird. ORZ

The anime isn't half as good as the manga and the article was only about the manga. In the anime the yaoi is even worse. Not bad, but there is a lot more. Cases are cut short or are changed, like the ark of Noah.
I can't relate to any of them either, but I just gotta love them all for being so awesome in their own way.
Is there graphic violence in the Kuro anime? I might be so used to it that I don't really remember XD;; I don't really watch series where nobody dies

I thought that killing people by throwing forks into their heads/eyes was pretty graphic.... XD

Oh yeah, forks and knifes. That wasn't so bad! No body parts were chopped off!

I don't think that it's just you being weird. I think that these kind of anime just doesn't hit you like other anime do ^^ You have your own genres you like and I think this one doesn't really belong to your genres you want to watch ^^ But that is just my opinion. I have my respect for everyone who doesn't like it. That's like not liking Naruto or Bleach while dozens do like it. This time it's about yaoi (maybe a more sensitive genre, but theoretically it doesn't matter) and it's an anime I do like, but that's really all ^^;

If oyu don't like the series, I don't care. Then you just don't like it ^_~ I just disagree on how he got to his comments. I don't care if he likes it or not, but saying it's rubbish just because YOU don't like it because of what you heard is something to get mad at. If he would have drawn that conclusion after reading some chapters/volumes, then I can respect it and I wouldn't make a fuzz about it at all ^^;

I hope that if he writes another review, he will do some research on the manga and try it out for at least one volume or a few chapters. I just want him to write a fair and square review and not something based on what he heard or what he thinks without trying it out ^^;

Sorry for the spam! T_T

To be fair, the guy did read everything of the manga that's available until now before making his conclusions, so it's not like he based it on just a few chapters or only one volume. (he said so on the Aniway forum at least XD ) And if he still didn't like it after reading that much of it, it can't be helped. ^^;

Still no reason to write such a lousy one-sided review.
