Black Butler: Complete Second Season(TV) (2010)
In late-nineteenth century England, one year and three months after the dramatic conclusion of the first season, season 2 introduces a new butler and young master. The sadistic yet cheerful Alois Trancy has faced some harsh times. He was kidnapped as a baby, and was forced to work in a village as a slave. Gradually, he lost his parents, his best friend, and everyone he knew. Alois eventually returned home and became the head of his mansion, but seemed to exhibit some strange behavior ever since. Even more curiously, he returned with Claude Faustus, an enigmatic, emotionless butler with unfathomable talent...

Michael Tatum, Daisuke Ono, Maaya Sakamoto, Hiroki Touchi, Yûki Kaji Director: Toshiya Shinohara » See full cast & crew Black Butler: Complete Second Season Blu-ray, Video QualityMy comments about Black Butler: Complete First Season hold true as well for the second season's AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1. Once again, this very distinctively animated series offers nicely sharp and clear line detail supporting a variety of nice looking character designs as well as some equally nicely rendered CGI elements. The colors once again pop very well and are nicely saturated. The recurring motifs of a spider (tied to the Trancy household) and a luminescent blue butterfly also lend this second season an appropriately spooky flair. This is a solid and enjoyable high definition presentation that continues the excellence of the first season. Black Butler: Complete Second Season Blu-ray, Audio QualityOnce again as with Black Butler: The Complete First Season, this second season features two lossless audio options, an English dub delivered via a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix and the original Japanese language track delivered via a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mix. For the record, and again as with the first season, this is one of a very few FUNimation Entertainment releases where the audio options can't be toggled through via the Audio button on your remote. Instead each must be accessed separately via the Setup Menu. There are also no optional subtitles on this release—they are part and parcel of the Japanese language track and cannot be turned on otherwise. Both of these mixes have their own charms, though most will probably want to opt for the English language track for a couple of reasons. First of all, the voice actors all do creditable if not outstanding British dialects, helping to properly locate the series in its time and place. Second of all, this particular English dub features a number of people not normally associated with FUNimation English dubs, and so there's a greater variety here than is often the case with FUNimation releases. Fidelity is excellent on both of the tracks, though as seems to be the case more often than not, the English dub features a much more aggressive low end (and not just because of the 5.1 element). Surround activity is well handled in the 5.1 mix, and the series' appealing music sounds great on this track. Black Butler: Other Seasons
