The episode will start in about 10 minutes. (Smile)
There’s so much work to do today I didn’t draw any sketch sorry.
I’ll do it after the episode airs together with spoilers! (><)

I have to say the highlight of this episode will be Sebastian’s super-butlering!
My ideal Sebastian is there!! Like this! This is the ideal Sebastian. (emphasize)
Well just watch it! Then you will know that Sebastian isn’t just about smug face! I feel like running around with a loud voice.
Claude has this super-glasses-move, so Sebastian…super-strength-move perhaps…with his bare hands. (lol)
It’s slightly awkward but despite Sebastian’s feeble look he can get basically everything done in the manga with his bare hands, so you may consider him the “fist-fight type” often seen in long-running anime series.
There is no doubt that he’s very confident when it comes to blows.★

The animation director responsible for this episode is Sakazaki-san. As introduced in the OP, He’s the “key animator” in S2 who brings the butlers to life in the anime.
Hence the action and everything in episode 4 is beautifully done~~~~~
From the hair to finger tips everything moves perfectly.
The scene on the coals with the back view of flapping tailcoat is my personal favourite. It’s so nice.
I can’t remember how many times I have watched ep4, just like the first episode, even though I haven’t had them for long. (lol)
Moreover it’s heart-tugging to see a himedakko scene with my own manga characters for the first time. Ahhh, Sebastian is so hot I can’t help thinking if Ciel were a girl love would flourish between them!
Unfortunately Sebastian is Sebastian handling luggage, Ciel is a boy so doesn’t give a damn about it.

A 30 minutes episode filled with the charm of anime that you will never get to experience in the manga so be sure not to miss it.

It’s going to start in 5 minutes!

This week I’ll tweet from time to time too, so please everyone in the Kantou region let’s watch it together.
See you then! (Dash towards the TV)
