Black Butler is an anime series adapted from the manga series of the same title by Yana Toboso. Directed by Toshiya Shinohara and produced by A-1 Pictures, Black Butler follows the adventures of Sebastian Michaelis, a demon butler who is obligated to serve Ciel Phantomhive, the thirteen-year-old (13 years old as of chapter 14) head of the Phantomhive noble family, due to a contract he made with Ciel.
