Black Butler
Black Butler streams on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix. Victorian gothic elegance, demonic contracts, and the most dangerously competent butler in fiction — this is the series that made 'one hell of a butler' a catchphrase.
About
In Victorian England, the Phantomhive name commands respect in daylight and fear after dark — the family serves as the Queen's watchdog over the empire's criminal underworld. When a brutal plot destroys young Ciel Phantomhive's world, he survives by striking the oldest kind of bargain: his soul, promised to a demon, in exchange for revenge on everyone responsible. That demon now stands at his shoulder in a butler's uniform. Sebastian Michaelis pours tea flawlessly, ends threats effortlessly, and waits with perfect patience for his payment. Together, the boy earl and his devil handle the Queen's darkest errands while pulling threads that lead back to the tragedy that started it all.
