#Can i skip black butler season 2 series#

If you watched the 'Book' series be prepared for a change in the personalities of many characters, and just disregard inconsistencies in the plot. There are lots of fan-service and pointless comic relief that detracts from the darkness of the story.

The dub is great for the main characters but terrible for most of the secondary characters. Skip the rest of the episodes and go to Book of Circus.Skip Filler Episodes 7-12 - These are extra missions and comic relief.The story is standalone, so it can be skipped without issues. Optional but Recommended Episode 01 - Although this is a filler episode, it's not a bad story and it introduces most of the characters.Or you could watch the canon story and come back for the fillers at a later time, which is what I recommend here. Therefore you could watch in release order and ignore the discrepancies from the first 2 seasons. 'The Book' seasons are the canon original Manga story, much more serious and darker, and they ignore all fillers in the first season and all second season.ģ. However, this is one of the very few animes where the fillers are actually good quality if not as good as the original story, although as I mention, it does introduce a lot of comic relief and fan service.Ģ. Most of the first season and all of the second season are fillers. There are also interesting characters interactions and clever dialog, for example, Ciel cannot let the demon know he cares about others so it always finds an excuse to phrase the necessity to help others in a different darker light.

Both stories can be enjoyed independent from each other, so choose what you want to watch.įor me, it was more about the main character's ability for taking hard decisions quickly and without hesitation, although I don't agree with all of them it does for an interesting watch, so I greatly prefer the canon dark story. All of those cliches are introduced by the fillers, the canon is a more serious and darker story, and the better of the two in my opinion. Then again, this may be why some people like it and have it rated so high. This season is good, but also extremely overrated, as it contains a great amount of filler fluff, cliche comedy, and unnecessary sexual connotations.
