In recent chapters of the manga as well as the second season of the anime, it was revealed that Sebastian Michaelis wasn’t always the perfect butler that everyone knew. In fact, he and his master, Ciel Phantomhive, often got on each other’s nerves during the first few days (or perhaps even weeks) of Ciel’s return as the head of the Phantomhive household. In the end, they managed to sort out their differences and “compromised” to some extent.

That is just so awesome! The angle of the shot, the expression on the cosplayer’s face, and the hand gesture looks so in-character! Thanks again to Fumiki for sending this in!

出会いに色はなくて　モノクロ　吹き抜ける
There’s no color in our encounter; the monochromy blew through it
痛みごと　君　委ねましょう
I shall entrust every pain of mine to you

傷跡　強くなぞる　容赦ない秋がきて
The unforgiving autumn, which forcefully traces my scars, comes
涼しい指　手招くままに
While your cool fingers still beckon me

I kinda like the strange setting for this cosplay. I mean really, Ciel in the bathtub? Thanks to Anna for sending this in!

In the 4th episode of Kuroshitsuji, Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis are in pursuit of Jack the Ripper, a serial killer terrorizing the City of London. After receiving information from Undertaker, Sebastian narrows the suspects down to the Viscount of Druitt. Madam Red then posed Ciel as her young niece with Sebastian as her personal tutor in order to try and capture the culprit.

Even though I’ve already posted about Ciel 10 times, I can’t believe I’ve never even featured him in this outfit! Akabara Yashiki makes a really cute Ciel, wouldn’t you agree? Thanks to Han for sending this in!

With her name literally meaning “blue cat”, Ran-Mao is often seen with the Chinese noble and President of the British Branch of a Chinese Trading Company, Lau. She was first introduced to be Lau’s sister, not by blood, and later revealed to be his personal assassin. Ran-Mao rarely speaks and has a very doll-like demeanor.

Awesome cosplay by Hana McDowell! Great detailing and fantastic pose as well! First found on Cosplay Ninja’s Tumblr!

When Ciel made his contract with Sebastian, his first command was to kill all the people in the room he was being tortured. It was during his time as a slave that a mark was burned on the left side of his back, although the anime featured it on the left side of his chest. Needless to say, Ciel was traumatized from this horrifying experience, and he does not allow much physical contact with other people aside from Sebastian and his fiancée, Elizabeth Middleford.

An impressive cosplay by JL! That contact lens looks just like Ciel’s eye in the anime! I love her nails as well. Thanks for sending in your photo, JL! We’ll definitely look forward to more of your cosplays!

In a manor house on the outskirts of London, an orphaned Ciel Phantomhive becomes the head of an English noble family as well as its heir to a toy and candy empire. The Phantomhives serve directly under her majesty, the Queen, as her “guard dog”. Ciel’s butler, Sebastian Michaelis, carries out any task required by his master with perfection, thanks to his demonic lineage and Faustian contract with Ciel.

Absolutely stunning cosplay! The details of both the cosplay and setting definitely gives a much needed Victorian feel. Thanks to Lisle for sending this!

Grell Suttcliff is a shinigami who is described to be over-the-top and flamboyant. He has a tendency to use female nouns and pronouns when referring to himself. In the manga and character guide, Grell has even expressed the desire to have a female body. He also has a tendency to put things in terms of theatre, as he refers to Angelina’s death as “the falling of curtains”, and even comparing his relationship to Sebastian Michaelis to the famous play, Romeo and Juliet.

Beautiful cosplay by Miyo Tsubasa! I really love the yukata which was made by Anastasia. Thanks again for sharing this with us and to Alexander for the awesome photography!

In the past, Madam Red, whose full name is Lady Angelina Durless-Barnett, was a withdrawn and shy child because of she was self-conscious of her red hair. She admired and loved her sister, Rachel Durless, who later married Vincent Phantomhive, whom they were both in love with. She was generally lighthearted about her sister’s marriage to Vincent, stating that if the two people she loved most were happy, then she was happy as well.

Lovely cosplay by Angie Choong! She looks so cute, like a much younger version of Madam Red! Thanks to Anastasia for sending this in!

Some time after the death of his brother Luca, Alois (whose real name is Jim McCain) was brought along with other boys to the Trancy estate. However, he was initially rejected by Trancy for his “filthy looking eyes”. Alois later overheard another boy talking about summoning a fairy to have his wish come true. Curious to know if such a tale could be real, Alois performed the ceremony and instead summoned Claude Faustus. They then created the contract in what appeared to be a strange dream ritual.

Impressive cosplay  by Arturo Pozo! Looks like Alois is saying “Ole!” in this photo! Thanks to Miguel for sending this in!

When he worked undercover in the Noah’s Ark Circus case, Ciel Phantomhive posed as a servant who wished to join the circus. His test involved balancing on the high wire, which Ciel could not have passed if not for Sebastian’s “help”. Ciel was later given the stage name “Smile”, possible because Joker wanted to encourage him to smile more.

I remember trying my best to stifle my laughter when I was reading the manga at home, but my family thought I was going crazy anyway! Thanks to Paladin for sending this in!

In the beginning of Kuroshitsuji II, Sebastian entered the Trancy Manor disguised as a wanderer needing shelter from the storm. However, when he criticized Claude Faustus for leaving a drop of sauce on the side of his dinner plate, he blew his cover, alerting Claude that he is Sebastian Michaelis. This resulted in a battle between the two demons when Sebastian took the “New Moon Drop” tea box from Alois Trancy.

Beautiful cosplay! I would not mind getting my tea served from this cosplayer at all. Thanks to Feenie for sending this in!

Just as Alois Trancy is the literary foil of Ciel Phantomhive, Claude Faustus also contrasts Sebastian Michaelis in order to highlight various features of Sebastian’s personality. Claude is more indifferent, hardly ever showing any emotion, and a perfectionist who has complete control over the other household servants. Unlike Sebastian, Claude never seems to attempt to stop Alois from doing anything unjust or inappropriate.

Welcome to the new Cosplay Holic, the Kuroshitsuji Edition! Please let me know if anything isn’t working properly, or if the colors are too bright, and I will do my best to adjust them accordingly! I just hope using pink and gray won’t drive the boys away from my site.

Featuring Neko16 as Claude Faustus and Juunana as Alois Trancy! Please pay them a visit in the deviant art accounts!

The Phantomhive butler who prides himself in his ability to handle every impossible task, Sebastian Michaelis has been known to use silverware as his weapon of choice in battle. He uses forks and knives as projectiles and is always able to make his mark, with the exception of death gods and  fallen angels. Sebastian is also an extreme cat lover, to the point of ignoring Ciel’s words to comfort a stray cat.

Impressive cosplay! The cosplayer really has Sebastian look down to his evil smile. Thanks to Andre for sharing this!

A young master and his clumsy maid, Meirin was employed into the Phantomhive household in order to gain a new life and protect Ciel. Meirin is a talented sniper who does not need to use a scope due to her sharp, far-sighted vision. She was given glasses by Ciel in order to limit her vision and keep her from getting distracted in her work.

Impressive cosplays by Scootkadoot and Mostflogged! I really love how in character they are on this photo! Please do have a look through their galleries on Deviant Art when you have the time! Thank you also to The Dreamer World for the brilliant photography!

Alois Trancy’s real name is Jim McCain, an abandoned orphan along with his younger brother Luca. Alois was angry at the villagers who mistreated them and thus began wishing for their deaths. Luca believed in him, stating the his brother could do anything he wanted. One fateful night, Alois’ wish came true, at the price of Luca’s life.

Such an awesome and eerie cosplay of Alois. I really love the accessories they added for this shoot. Thanks to Gabriel for sending this!

After his parents were murdered, Ciel Phantomhive become a slave and a sacrifice for a religious cult ritual. While he was being tortured, however, his hatred grew for the people who took away his parents and freedom, summoning a demon Ciel named Sebastian Michaelis. It was then that Ciel sold his soul to the devil in order to gain the power to fulfill his revenge.

Gorgeous cosplay! Even if the hair is white instead of gray, I think it’s a minor error which can be overlooked. Originally found on Tumblr.
