The reason this OVA was palatable was for a similar reason as the Hamlet one it didn’t take itself too seriously and pretend it’s actually good. There were OVAs for EVERY DVD as opposed to the first season only having the OVA for the last disc.Īll OVAs for the second season were (almost) as awful as the season itself, save for ‘The Making of’. The makers knew that the second season was a flop… so OH THEY TRIED TO MILK the OVA potential to get SOME, ANY, DVD sales. If the second season had existed it would have been GOD AWFUL. More than 10 years have passed, and sometimes when I or my friends eat wakame we still hum “wakame, suki suki♪”. In short, unlike the rest of the series, the OVA was appropriately self-aware.Īlso, Ranmao as seaweed was bliss. For once I thought the anime balanced the humour and the edginess of this series well. There was a bit of bitter-irony alongside over-the-topness, but it didn’t try to shove any of it in your face. #Black butler season 2 characters fullDo I think the full potential of the Kuroshitsuji characters/cast was used? No, but at least the OVA didn’t waste it. The Hamlet OVA stopped attempting to take itself seriously and just had its eyes set on sheer entertainment. Incidentally it’s also the only thing that makes the 4-episode DVD sorta worth the ridiculous price I paid. The Hamlet OVA however, was something of a silver lining in the awful situation that was the first season. In the second half of the first season Kuroshitsuji just went wacko, and yet it had the gal to take itself so seriously. Hello~! Yes, I actually did enjoy the ‘Hamlet’ OVA from season I and ‘The Making of Kuroshitsuji’ from this season that doesn’t exist ^^ ‘That Butler, Performance’
