God I unironically wish we could've gotten a Black Butler cinderella OVA cause it would've been so funny
With Sebastian as cinderella and Ciel as the stepmother and Viscount Druitt as one of the evil stepbrothers (who gets injured like twice in the story) (cause he's a piece of shit and deserves it)
Grell would be the prince(ss) charming looking for her prince/princess/sexy demon boy or whatever (much to Sebby's annoyance and dismay)
hey ever wanted to listen to the kuroshitsuji II songs but youtube was like "what if we took them all down"? well, i got the solution for you
I JUST finished uploading all the character albums to archive.org! Alongside the cover art for each of them respectively. This took a little over a couple of hours to compile as well as make sure they were properly translated as well as archiving just taking a bit.
Under the cut is all the songs with their tracklists. Happy listening!
Sebastian's Songs
01 : You Will Rule the World
02 : Aru Shitsuji no Nichijo [The Daily Routine of a Certain Butler]
03 : You Will Rule the World (Off Vocal Version)
04 : Aru Shitsuji no Nichijo [The Daily Routine of a Certain Butler] (Off Vocal Version)
Not to scare y'all off by mentioning Viscount Druitt but this post is to insult him so please don't block me. I swear i hate that bitch too.
Okay so I'm pretty sure this happens at least in the musical, don't remember if its also canon to the manga? But at one point that disgusting man, while trying to auction off Ciel, goes on about "This lady also has two different coloured eyes!" wich means
Wich means he saw someone with a literal demonic symbol carved into their eye and went "This is normal :)" and just passed it off as heterocromia.
MY DUDE THATS A LITERAL DRAWING. ITS NOT EVEN THE MODERN ERA WHERE YOU CAN CONFUSE IT FOR QUIRKY CONTACT LENSES. EVEN IF YOU DIDNT KNOW IT WAS A DEMONIC THING (WICH IS STILL YOU BEING DUMB, SINCE YOU'RE APPARENTLY INTO THE OCCULT) THAT SHOULD STILL BE A CAUSE OF CONCERN.
Immagine seeing someone with eyes like this during the Victorian Era and thinking its normal.
Alois and Hannah both confront Viscount Druitt about his plans with the device made for the Aurora Society.
Alois: What do you exactly intend to do with that device, Aleister? If it’s something to do with all the walking corpses than I’ll potentially forgive you for inviting me to his cruise in the first place. 😠
Druitt: Oh don’t fret, young canary. My deeds do in fact relate to benefiting with the bizarre dolls strolling around, but it’s something I certainly can’t explain until the time is right - not even to my own cousin. And there’s nothing you can do to make me. 😌
Alois:

What do you propose Alois will order Hannah to do to interrogate him?
I like your idea about Druitt and Unny still in cahoots. It fits well with them both involved in what occurred at Weston. Redmond called on uncle Druitt so he knows the secrets of the Music Hall and the school. And of course none of it would've been possible w/o Unny, and there they both are on the Campania. I never did buy Undertaker's excuse for refusing to reap Druitt or let him be killed. Your idea makes much more sense. Toboso makes us laugh at Druitt so we won't suspect him 2 much, right?

Undertaker and Druitt connections
I suspect that -- unless they are somehow related, and they might be -- Undertaker first became interested in what Druitt was up to when the viscount began selling off children and young women at auctions, if not sooner (and I'll get to that later in this reply).
If Undertaker was called upon to remove remains from any of the buyers, or from Druitt's estate, he'd want to know what they were doing to those victims/bodies. We know he's picked up remains from Phantomhive Manor on numerous occasions; Sebastian has the other servants pile up the remains from the circus troupe attack and cart them to some back or side gate for Undertaker to collect them. Most likely, this was done whenever there was a failed attack at the manor, even before our "Ciel" became earl and master. The Phantomhives, going back however far they go, would have been common targets to anyone who wanted to get rid of the queen's watchdog. And we know that before other servants were even hired by Sebastian and our earl, assassins and thieves were showing up on a nearly nightly basis. Somewhat regularly, in any case.
We now know quite a bit about how our earl ended up with his current servants, but we've learned very little about how he ended up with his various connections; we don't even know how he connected with Vincent's old, remaining network. I imagine that one of the first reconnections he made (besides Madam Red and Tanaka, of course) would be Undertaker. People would show up to the manor, Sebastian would kill them, and then what? Sebastian would have asked his young master how he wants to dispose of the bodies. At first, our earl might have suggested to bury them on the vast estate. But, as the numbers mounted, this would have taken more time and space, plus it could open them up for investigation, if remains were found (by others) that weren't proper burials in the family cemetery. Another option would be to dump them off the grounds, as far away as possible. This could still become a problem. Our earl would remember the creepy undertaker that popped up around the manor (and possibly also the estate grounds) from time to time, back when his predecessor was in charge. During the instruction both boys received about being earl and watchdog, Vincent might have already explained why he has Undertaker in his network... at least the professional reason, though definitely not the personal reason.
I don't know whether Druitt was ever in Vincent's circle, a member of the evil nobles. They probably attended Weston together, but we don't know if he's the Scarlet House prefect. Either way, Druitt might have actually become a subject for investigation before. There's even a scene during the curry arc that could be a hint to that. The jeweled lady that Druitt recalls might actually be Vincent in drag, at some event years ago, there to investigate Druitt or someone else in attendance.
We have no idea how long ago Druitt started trafficking humans, so perhaps it was related to that... and he just got away to do it again and again... much like we've seen him get away with the things he does while our earl is watchdog. Even when Druitt is arrested, he goes free. Probably bribery to corrupt officials. Some of the higher-up ones might be clients/buyers. Yana-san really drives home how much corruption and fraud and abuse there is in her Victorian England. Sadly, it's not too far from reality.
Doctors were largely detested during the era because of some shady practices that many engaged in. Practitioners would be hired to have people committed to asylums... or even to examine girls to see if they were still virgins, so their families could prostitute them out and charge more for their first assignations. Surgeons (for practice) and anatomists got their human dissection subjects through various means; some were acceptable and others were downright despicable. They prescribed dangerous substances as medicines; sometimes the "cures" really were worse than the conditions.
Though Druitt doesn't have a medical practice, he has a medical license. Before he even got into selling live humans, I wouldn't be surprised if he was involved with supplying and/or buying corpses for study. It would be interesting if Druitt cut out the grave robbers by going straight to undertakers for a supply, because he seems like the sort of person who would do a lot of studying on his own, particularly since he's an aristocrat with no intention of opening a public medical practice. Druitt's connections to Undertaker might go back quite a long way, maybe even back to Druitt's Weston years... when Undertaker would have likely re-entered Vincent's life. Who knows, but I'd be very interested to find out.
When Sebastian investigates all the people with events for the social season, narrowing down the ones that might line up with Jack the Ripper, we don't know where he gets all of his information. It's entirely possible that some of it comes from Undertaker, particularly about people like Druitt. Which supports the idea that Undertaker might already have a history of dealing with the remains of people who have passed through Druitt's doors.
Well, they definitely meet before the events of the Campania, since they already have some sort of dealings with each other, including the Aurora Society. Druitt could easily be the one who introduces Undertaker to Stoker. I very much doubt it would be the other way around, with Stoker making introductions between Undertaker and Druitt.
I'm sure there was more I wanted to get to here, but this reply has been sitting in draft for ages, and I've forgotten whatever else I'd wanted to say. 😬
But Druitt has got to supply more to Undertaker than simply laughter. Knowledge and/or experimentation that leads to medical technology would be very helpful for his current activities.
And we can't ignore the possibility they are also related. Particularly if Undertaker ends up being Cedric K. Rosewood, Rosenthal, Rosedale or any other last name that would make him sound right at home in Scarlet House....
