Kuroshitsuji: Drocell Cainz 03

The Mandalay Family's Puppeteer, Drocell Cainz initially appeared to be a cruel man with sadistic tendencies. Grell Sutcliff later reveals that the real Drocell has his soul seized by the shinigami five years prior to his appearance in the series, thereby indicating that he was already dead. His body was somehow reanimated with a temporary soul, manipulated by the fallen angel, Angela.

Stunning cosplay by Senri Kurenai! It’s simple yet captivating, with a look that so much like the original character himself. Thanks to Timothy for suggesting this!

Kuroshitsuji II: Alois Trancy

Earl Alois Trancy has a tendency to shift from being a carefree and happy child to a morbid and manipulative individual. Like Ciel Phantomhive, he has formed a contract with a demon known as Claude Faustus. However, that is where their similarities end; as Ciel thinks of Sebastian Michaelis as his Knight/Servant, Alois is completely dependent on Claude.

I did not like the second season of Kuroshitsuji very much, but I do love how this cosplay turned out. Thanks to Flight for suggesting to feature *juunana of Deviant Art!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 05

Although usually appearing to be emotionless, Ciel occasionally expresses his concern for the well-being of those who are close to him. He sometimes portrays himself as a happy person especially when undercover, but soon returns to his true self. Ciel is highly reliant on Sebastian, his butler, and does not appear to interact with the other servants of the Phantomhive Household as often, although they are all devoted to him.

Beautiful cosplay! The attention to detail is stunning and I believe this an artwork from the series’ soundtrack or drama CD. Thanks to Kuro-chan for sending this!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 05

When Ciel's cousin and fiancee, Elizabeth Middleford visits the Phantomhive Estate, she asks Ciel to dance with her, much to his annoyance. Sebastian then convinced his young master to learn a simple Waltz in order to preserve his social reputation. Things do not go well as Ciel chose to wear the Phantomhive Family Ring in favor of the one Elizabeth bought for him, which made her upset. She broke his ring and was almost hit by Ciel until Sebastian stopped him and explained to Elizabeth the cause of Ciel’s anger. Ciel threw out the broken ring, stating that he is the head of the Phantomhive Household with or without it. Sebastian played the violin as the two danced and made amends.

Although Ciel was able to successfully hide his depression, Sebastian saw right through his young master and reprimanded him that evening. He then produced the Phantomhive Family ring, undamaged, stating that it would only be natural for the servant of the Phantomhive to achieve this.

Stunning cosplay by ~istriazel! I loved how Sebastian played the violin in that episode, although it seems impossible to play the violin with gloves. Then again, Sebastian isn’t exactly human. Thanks also to ~Kyrille for the wonderful photography!

Kuroshitsuji: Drocell Cainz 02

According to Grelle Sutcliffe, Drocell is butler and puppeteer who thinks he is a human being. He controls the dolls based on kidnapped little girls with the lullaby "London Bridge" from his music box in order to please his master. He has a faint realization that he is not human when he had "white stuff" falling from his ear.

Cosplay Holic reader Vea sent me a variety of Sweden's convention photos, and it would appear that I have a lot of work to do! This is one of my favorites, from Uppcon:10 which took place from the 9th to the 11th of April 2010. Thanks again, Vea!

Kuroshitsuji: Drocell Cainz

A character who only appeared in the anime adaptation, Drocell Cainz used the Hope Diamond in order to kidnap chosen girls and turn them into dolls. He lured Elizabeth Middleford, Ciel's cousin and fiance, with the lullaby "London Bridge" from his music box. Drocell claims to be human but later had "white stuff" falling from his ear suggesting that he too was a mere puppet controlled his master, who is still unknown at this point.

Cosplayer ~fxxkanddie R.D. makes a beautiful Drocell and it's the Visual Kei version too! Beautiful photography by *Fantastiqueist! Thanks for sharing this and Happy April Fools everyone!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 04

A demon and a butler, Sebastian Michaelis formed a contract with Ciel Phantomhive to abide by his master’s will in exchange for his soul. He is required to do whatever Ciel commands, including becoming his personal bodyguard. Sebastian bears a striking resemblance to Ciel’s late father, Lord Vincent Phantomhive.

Awesome cosplay! And that blurred hand… do you think that’s blood on his glove? Thanks to Bailiff for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 04

The young Earl of the Phantomhive household, Ciel runs the Funtom Company which manufactures toys and sweets, and later, a food branch as Sebastian obtained the Royal Warrant. He enjoys drinking tea and sweet desserts, and is even known to distinguish different types of tea. Ciel also has asthma, the same with his mother, and is a proficient hunter, presumably like his father.

Beautiful cosplay! I always loved to see Ciel smiling rather than expressionless. Good job on the details!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 03

Oh, hello there.

I think people may have noticed I had to take down the shoutbox for a while. My site was getting a virus alert and I think someone may have left it there.

Also, I have noticed a lot of people are fighting in my comments lately, and saying unappropriate things. Which is sad when my shoutbox has a lot of good comments.

So for now, the shoutbox will be taken down until I can get rid of the virus. I hope everyone will continue to support Cosplay Holic! And for today, I will leave you with Stay's version of Kuroshitsuji's Sebastian Michaelis. わたしはあくまで執事ですから~!
