Chapter #107.5′s Sebagrell goodies

Ok, they’re not in order, but there we go...

First, when Sebastian uses all the rosettes to be stronger in order to defeat the snake monster... 

Can you see the number in the first one?

And the one Grell gave to him? 

It’s cute to think Grell was the first one to hand Sebastian her rosette to help him

Also, her reaction when she saw him joining to the party and asking him to sit down

And when Sebastian made dinner for everybody...

Passionate fights and weird moments aside, I think this extra had a good amount of cute Sebagrell goodies <3

It's okay if you don't want to reply but you're only neutral person with knowledge in Japanese that gives nice explanations. Is grelles confessional correctly translated? Some fans told me translated version is wrong and biased. And does Grelle from akuma 6 really want to turn into a woman or is that another fan doujinshi? Thank you for being respectful and unbiased.

Dear Anon,

You are giving me too much credit, I am surely not the only one ^^ @akumadeshitsumon for one is a learned academic in the field of Japanese (trans) gender studies.

By Grell’s confessional, do you mean the character guide book?

I don’t know how this book has been translated, so I cannot offer a comparison. But I guess you are more concretely asking whether Grell said anything about her gender in it? There was a part where she was asked whether she always uses **“Tranny Language” (onee kotoba ・オネエ言葉), and Grell replied that she is “a lady, and therefore using feminine speech at all times is only to be expected.”

TLN: “Tranny/Onee” is of course a slur, but as I explained before, (trans)gender studies evolved very different in Japanese society, but 10 years ago there was a lack of accurate terminology, hence this offensive use of term.

As for ‘Akuma 6′, this is the English translation I found.

In the original manga, Grell said the following:

“つまり  アタシが2位(そのガキ)のロゼットを手に入れれば、世界中の男がひれ伏すような艶女(アデージョ)になれると思っていいヨネ？”

“Tsumari, atashi ga ni-i (sono gaki) no rosette wo te ni irereba, sekaichuu no otoko ga hirefusu you na enjo (Ade-jo) ni nareru to omotte ii yo ne?”

“In short, if I manage to get the rosette of the second place holder (that brat), then I will be able to become a raving beauty (Ade-jo) before whom all the men in the world will prostrate, right?”

‘Ade-jo’ is a neo-word that is coined by NIKITA magazine, meaning ‘a mature and successful business woman with exceptional beauty’. Specifically, this term is used to distinguish more ‘mature’ women from ‘shoujo’ - glorified innocently young girls. In contrast to the ‘shoujo’, ‘Ade-jo’ are celebrated as women who have the experiences and skills that the younger girls do not have.

As such, it is indeed very ideal to be seen as an ‘Ade-jo’ for Grell, who is a reaper from a society where diligence is held in highest esteem. In this bonus chapter, Grell does not wish to become a lady, because she already is a lady as frequently stated in the canon manga. Instead, she wants to be upgraded into an ‘ade-jo’ specifically.

I just noticed something on 107.5

Undertaker took the time to stand up and pick up Vincent’s portrait to place it in the armchair where he was previously sitting, before trying to grant him his rosette’s power.

The special thing about this is just that Undertaker 

gave his place and power to Vincent, and is literally replaced by Vincent in the next panel

So yeah don’t mind me, I’m just here staring at this chapter’s beauty and marvelously implied hints and symbolisms that we’ll eventually learn to be true or not in about a decade from now.

O!Ciel coming and finding out that some people like Sebastian or his brother more 🙃

[kuro-von-shitsuji]

Honestly I feel Vincent is going to turn out to be a reaper but all the evidence I have is a gut feeling and Chekhov’s gun so like... it’s not a particularly convincing theory yet

[midnight-in-town]

Hii! I recently found your blog and I enjoy going through it sm!! All your ideas are very interesting and it's really hard to find any Kuro content these days so I'm glad to have found this! I was wondering if you have any theories/ideas on Viscount of Druitt? He seems to be meddling in the occult quite a lot and tbh I'd be disappointed if he doesnt play some sort of role in the bigger picture of the series. Like he is eccentric enough to be played off as a joke character but he is also shady enough for him to be a legit obstacle ( also the fact that he was in the P4 along with Vincent made me 10 times more suspicious of him, especially with his hand resting on Vincent's shoulder)

in conclusion: that boy sus your honor.

Hello! So apparently, now long asks with different font size are a thing? :)

Anyway, thank you for reading and for the nice words!! (^3^)/ It’s very nice to hear that my ideas aren’t too outdated yet. :3

I was wondering if you have any theories/ideas on Viscount of Druitt? 

Well, as you said so yourself, there is no such thing as a joke character in Kuroshitsuji, only foreshadowing and hints, so I’m pretty sure that there is more to him than just goofing around.

As for specific theories about him, feel free to check my tag for him: it has a lot of posts that I reblogged or wrote over the years.

Long story short, one way or another, he’s no entirely empty head (despite what we may think) and he’s been always foreshadowed to be seeking “power”:

(from the extra chapter 107.5, in which getting a higher-ranked rosette made you more “powerful”)

Aside from that, to quote from one of my old posts: “To this day though, personally I still don’t know what to make of him and of any possible link to the cult that abused the twins 4 years ago, as well as to the blue sect (since it’s yet another scientific organization and his nephew is involved).

I think the chances are far from 0 that he might be or might have been involved, it’s just that he is lucky enough to have avoided retribution all this time. Other great bloggers wrote very interesting posts on the subject too, especially on the matter of his character being inspired from a man named Aleister Crowley, so if you haven’t read them please check out:

@glacierspirit‘s post

@thedarkestcrow​‘s post

@shinigami-mistress​‘ post”

“also the fact that he was in the P4 along with Vincent made me 10 times more suspicious of him, especially with his hand resting on Vincent's shoulder”

Oh, just one thing though, I do remember the picture but, just to be clear...

...while it is indeed quite likely that it could be him (he went to Weston at some point + UT is strangely fond of him, could be all the laughing or could be that he’s an old friend of Vincent), for now there is no canon confirmation that the blond prefect next to Vincent is Druitt.

However I agree that if, it’s him, then it will be confirmed later in the story, probably when Ciel himself will be revealed to Druitt as Vincent’s son (since every time they’ve met so far, Ciel was always in disguise or never introduced himself as Earl Phantomhive).

Another thing is, if the blond prefect is Druitt, then it’s also likely that the fourth prefect might be a character we’ve met or that we will meet later (for example, Bravat? who knows :) courtesy of @theunstealthiestninja).

That’s all I have so far, I hope it answers your questions! Thank you again for the nice words and for passing by, I wish you a nice weekend Anon!! :)
