Hey guys!

I've seen some of you guys with icons and such from this show... I really want to watch it, but am concerned about the content... um... religion-wise. I love the Victorian era. Anyway, there was no review for it in the reviews section, so I thought I'd ask some of you more experienced guys... did/does it bother you? I need to know how bad it is, I guess.

Thanks!

[font="palatino Linotype"]Hmmm... This is how I'mma sum my experience up. xD

Anime was filled with: Gore, blood, odd storyline, satanic ritual against little boy, demons, angels portrayed as bad, young boys crossdressing (it's cute, though! D:< ) bad sexual innuendo (and coming close to a scene) in later episode, naked dog-boy. o_o;

MANGA was filled with: Better gore, prettier blood (just follow me here. -.-), better storyline by a LONG SHOT (anime and manga take almost two different storylines after a few episodes), not-as-much sexual innuendo, demons, crossdressing little boy, satanic ritual against little boy, no naked-dog boys. o_o

In this series, there has been often where "God" has come into thought as being not as powerful as we believe Him to be.
Really, I'd say to read the manga and not watch the anime, but it really all depends on your personal tastes. After one certain episode, I really couldn't stand watching the anime anymore--it was really distasteful because of the fact that [spoiler]Sebastian was having sex with a friggen NUN[/spoiler], so that turned me off the anime REAL quick.

Anyhow, I really hope this helped somewhat... >_<;;;;;
I recommend this anime if you have a strong stomach and a fervent love for the Victorian Age~ <3[/font]

The more I hear about the Kuroshitsuji anime, the more I'm glad I never bothered to watch it. Geez. >>

Everyone should just read the manga, it's way better? 8D

Oh GOOD. Never read the manga, but sloshed through the anime. It was... painful and boring (also ditto on the asdfgdrstfuygitdhtrdcness of Hana's spoiler).

Thanks all!

The manga is good. I sadly watched the anime before hand and kinda wish I did not. But the Manga is really good.
