| To facilitate the extensive process of revising all articles in Kuroshitsuji Wiki, we will focus on one aspect at a time. We will focus on the manga and all elements associated with it (i.e. characters and chapters). This template is to serve as a warning: pages/sections marked with this template, ranging from the anime characters, episodes, OVAs, musicals, songs, and out-of-the-universe information, will not be our priority; thus, they may not be up-to-date, substantiated, or thoroughly cleaned as of yet. |
His Butler, at the Funeral (その執事、葬送, Sono Shitsuji, Sōsō) is the sixth episode of season one of the Kuroshitsuji anime.
Summary[]
Sebastian's Cinematic Record plays, showing some rather mundane events, much to Sebastian's amusement and Grelle's annoyance. Grelle had cut Sebastian and was hoping to see something dramatic, but Sebastian tells her the rest is pay-per-view.
Sebastian notices that his clothes are ruined, and Grelle and Sebastian charge at each other, with Sebastian using his wool coat to jam Grelle's Death Scythe, rendering it useless.
Grelle is forced to fight Sebastian in hand-to-hand combat, where Sebastian is able to gain the upper hand. Sebastian grabs her Death Scythe, removes the coat, and prepares to kill her with her own weapon. However, before he can, a Grim Reaper stops him. The Grim Reaper introduces himself as William T. Spears, explaining that he is there to take Grelle back because she committed numerous crimes.
After apologizing to Sebastian, William notes how disgusting it is to have to apologize to a demon. William drags Grelle away, with Sebastian "returning" Grelle's Death Scythe by throwing it at William's head.
Sebastian then apologizes to Ciel for not killing Jack the Ripper. Ciel wobbles when he stands, and Sebastian attempts to steady him, but Ciel rebuffs him, saying he is only tired.
Sometime later, Undertaker explains to curious children that the chapel is busy because it is Angelina Dalles's funeral. Ciel arrives late to the funeral, carrying a red dress, and tells Angelina that red is her color, not white. Red petals drift through the chapel, courtesy of a truck outside.
Ciel reminisces about good times with Angelina and his parents. At Phantomhive Manor, the servants comment on how sad it is that she is gone. Elsewhere, Scotland Yard comments that the case of Jack the Ripper has been solved through the underworld of Britain.
At the funeral, Lau asks if Ciel will reveal who the real Jack the Ripper is, but Ciel says there is no need. They part, and Ciel and Sebastian meet up with Undertaker at the grave of the last of Jack the Ripper's victims, i.e. Mary Jane Kelly. Undertaker calls Ciel kind for giving her a grave, but Ciel says he could have saved her or even Angelina if he had made their lives a priority, but he does not regret his decisions, now that Jack the Ripper is dead. Undertaker mocks his sense of duty to Queen Victoria, but tells him he can stop by his shop, nonetheless.
Sebastian also says Ciel is either kind or weak, saying it was his hesitation to kill a relative, even one who was killing him, that prevented him from firing. Ciel counters that it is Sebastian's job to protect his life. Ciel orders Sebastian to never betray or leave him, which Sebastian agrees to.
