First of all I like all the work you did collecting these, must’ve taken hell of a time. Looking at these I remember an important fact that Kuroshitsuji fans tend to forget, or ignore.
Ciel ,indeed, is a horrible person.
But allow me to disagree with the note you added. By no means he’s being manipulated by anyone, let alone Sebastian. The demon who admires him for being ruthless, and manipulative. I wouldn’t admire someone if I was the reason behind their actions, now would I? Rather, Sebastian mostly looks down upon those who fall for his manipulations, often uses them and discards them after he takes what he wants. Beast being the perfect example of this fact.
We weren’t at any point in the manga shown a moment where Sebastian manipulated Ciel’s actions, what we were shown, however; is Sebastian himself, being taken aback by how cruel and deceiving his master tend to be. Examples being buring the whole place where the children were kept down, and lying to Snake. In both occasions we see Sebastian being surprised. He thinks Ciel is interesting, Ciel keeps on showing him new sides to humans. Had Sebastian manipulated him, he wouldn’t be so surprised, it wouldn’t be interesting because he would’ve saw it coming. Which never was the case.
He takes Ciel seriously, treats him as an equal where he mocks others, he respects Ciel. I am so tired of people reducing this magnificent, complicated character into a confused child. He runs a successful company, on a higher level than the adults in the industry do. He controls the workings of everything illegal, the damn mafia and drug dealers. Ciel’s incredibly smart, all the plans demonstrated in the manga were the workings of his brain.
Sebastian has never affected a decision Ciel had made.
Sebastian has never affected a decision Ciel had made.
Sebastian has never affected a decision Ciel had made.
Sebastian has never affected a decision Ciel had made.
So yes, Ciel, indeed, is a horrible person, but that’s not Sebastian’s fault, it’s Ciel’s. All of it, everything, every single choice was made by him, the one and only earl Phantomhive. I am so done.
