SEBASTIAN AND GRELL BLACK BUTLER SERIES

How much of that is genuine or just Grell being Grell remains to be seen, but they make an effort to look great for all the cuties either way. They manage to keep a positive outlook and remain eager to meet new people (especially when they’re cute guys).Īt the end of the day, though, their true love is Sebastian Michaelis, the demon serving Ciel Phantomhive. They’re Fabulousįor someone who gets ridiculed and treated as disgusting by many of the main cast, it’s amazing how fabulous Grell is both inside and out. When you think about what Grell is like in terms of their obviously not cishet way of presenting themself, you get a subtle hint of what they likely killed themself over. It’s theorized that they died at least a century ago. Grell’s no INFP anime character, but it’s easy to tell that their sad past has something to do with their weapon since all Grim Reapers in the world of Kuroshitsuji, people who become Grim Reapers are people who committed suicide. But there’s something decidedly melancholic about them when they sometimes let on in the anime and manga that they have serious issues.

SEBASTIAN AND GRELL BLACK BUTLER SERIES

Sure, many shounen series will later reveal that their happy-go-lucky comic relief has a dark past or a sad childhood that made them determined to see the world in a more positive light. It’s not every day you see a comic relief character be teased as someone more nuanced on the inside in the same way Grell has been. Until today, fans are still debating certain aspects of their personality, particularly their gender identity.

Though they’re initially portrayed as comic relief, Grell Sutcliff quickly grew on fans because of their vibrant personality that just can’t be pinned down. The redheaded Grim Reaper was introduced early in the series as the butler of Baroness Angelina Dalles-Burnett a.k.a Madame Red. The show is packed with demons, angels, and Grim Reapers all vying for human souls though the plot mostly centers on the young Earl Ciel Phantomhive and his demon butler, Sebastian Michaelis.Ĭool as they may be, though, there’s one character that stands out because there’s really no one else like them in the show and that’s Grell Sutcliff. He just WANTS to be DONE by Sebas… if you get my drift.Black Butler‘s brilliant cast of characters and fast-paced plot made it a favorite among anime fans after the show’s release in 2008. As Lawlietisawesome has stated He doesn’t like Grell because of all the trouble he has put him through, because of his lack of aesthetics and basically Grell is a Shinigami.Īlso and to conclude my rant to Grell is NOT in love with Sebastian. Secondly Sebastian as a Demon on a leash he has to obey the orders given by his master. They want to eat and they would eat whatever they on their path when they find it appealing. They do not care about those sort of stuff. How can you call yourself a butler?“ And well, the reason why he won´t accept her feelings is simply because he´s a demon and Grell is a grim reaperįor starters Sebastian is a Demon. Is this some kind of joke? Sebastian doesn´t hate Grell because she´s a woman, Sebastian doesn´t care if you are a man or a woman as was stated by Yana Toboso, he hates Grell because she´s making him trouble, tried to kill him and the thought that such person was playing a butler is making him sick because everything Grell was as a butler goes against his aesthetics, he even said Grell calls herself a lady and therefore wishes to be seen as a lady, Sebastian does see Grell as such but the reason that he won’t accept Grell’s feelings and says that it’s disgusting is because Sebastian prefers men and sees women as disgusting though he has slept with women before however that was because he had to in order to aid Ciel in solving cases.
