10/10
WARNING:SPOILERS Absolute Masterpiece

This is my favorite anime. I feel this anime is dark with a touch of humor. There is this young boy whose parents died and after being captured made a deal with a demon to serve, protect, and help him get his revenge. The charming dark demon serves Ciel as he is the queens 'Guard dog'. I feel this season has a more whimsical feeling rather than dark because it focuses more on the mission that the queen gives Ciel. In this season there was a lot more of screen time with other minor characters such as Lady Elizabeth, Finney, and Mei-Ren. The time period was Victorian London 1899, with 12 year old Ciel. It has the same kind of feel as Death-Note which I really enjoyed. I do feel like the anime just kind of threw you out there as far as the first couple of episodes because you don't know exactly what is going on and I think that's different and a good thing. This season focuses more on the emotion ties between characters unlike the second season which focuses more on Ceil's psyche. It was very well translated. It wasn't just Japanese to English. The Idian Prince and his servant was kind of random but I think it added a little more spice to the season. I could really connect with the characters which I thought was amazing. I rate this 10/10 and it was an absolute masterpiece.
