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.

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.
