reboot remake?

Why would they do that? Plenty of manga. Tried the original route once and it was an unmitigated Okada disaster.

I'm pretty certain they're just going to continue from where they left off (Especially since Hiroyuki Yoshino is returning for the adaption). Though whether they're going to continue the one arc per series from before or adapt multiple ones I'm not sure. (There are three finished ones so far and the fourth will probably be done by the time the anime airs. Though it would need to be two cours to adapt it all of course)

It's a new season (continuation)

Black Butler lives!
I could be wrong but it seems like the key visual implies they'll be adapting

well since is the thing now to make reboot remakes so I was just wondering. :heh:

thanks.

I read the manga a long time ago and drop it since it stopped updating, barely remember anything.

The School Arc seems to be almost universally loved by manga readers, so I’m looking forward to it.

Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread)
New PV confirming we are indeed getting the School arc.

Somewhat surprised we didn't even get the seiyuu for the Four Prefects though.

But we do have Maaya Sakamoto saying she'll be late for school :heh:.

I had totally forgotten the prefects had their house colors in their name :p.

This'll be a fun arc :).

This isn’t second season. This is the 4th TV anime.

Came to say the same thing. Even if you count "season 2" as non-canon, it is the third one. And there was an OVA series and movie also.

The school arc? I remember it had one of the worst accidental slurs ever.

Oh yeah, they repeat the word over and over

I haven’t read the arc in question but you do know that word means something completely different in the British public school vernacular, right?

Yeah, in posh boys schools it's what they call the younger posh boys who become the posh boys servants for the duration. It's environments like that which gave us people like shambling haystack Boris Johnson and Victorian Cosplayer Jacob Rees-Mogg.
Would still expect they'd change it (they should) to avoid misunderstanding.

I've mostly forgotten the first two seasons (oddly enough, I remember the non-canon second season pretty well), I'll pick it up based on one thing only: has the manga explored Sebastian's origins?

Do they still use it?

As far as I know. It’s also very common British slang for a cigarette and I know it’s still used in that context.

The longer version of the slur is still used to describe a kind of meatball. British cuisine, right?
