Kuroshitsuji II: Alois Trancy 05

WARNING: This article contains spoilers. Please read at your own risk!

Some time after the death of his brother Luca, Alois (whose real name is Jim McCain) was brought along with other boys to the Trancy estate. However, he was initially rejected by Trancy for his “filthy looking eyes”. Alois later overheard another boy talking about summoning a fairy to have his wish come true. Curious to know if such a tale could be real, Alois performed the ceremony and instead summoned Claude Faustus. They then created the contract in what appeared to be a strange dream ritual.

Impressive cosplay  by Arturo Pozo! Looks like Alois is saying “Ole!” in this photo! Thanks to Miguel for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel “Smile” Phantomhive

When he worked undercover in the Noah’s Ark Circus case, Ciel Phantomhive posed as a servant who wished to join the circus. His test involved balancing on the high wire, which Ciel could not have passed if not for Sebastian’s “help”. Ciel was later given the stage name “Smile”, possible because Joker wanted to encourage him to smile more.

I remember trying my best to stifle my laughter when I was reading the manga at home, but my family thought I was going crazy anyway! Thanks to Paladin for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 08

In the beginning of Kuroshitsuji II, Sebastian entered the Trancy Manor disguised as a wanderer needing shelter from the storm. However, when he criticized Claude Faustus for leaving a drop of sauce on the side of his dinner plate, he blew his cover, alerting Claude that he is Sebastian Michaelis. This resulted in a battle between the two demons when Sebastian took the “New Moon Drop” tea box from Alois Trancy.

Beautiful cosplay! I would not mind getting my tea served from this cosplayer at all. Thanks to Feenie for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji II: Claude Faustus and Alois Trancy

Just as Alois Trancy is the literary foil of Ciel Phantomhive, Claude Faustus also contrasts Sebastian Michaelis in order to highlight various features of Sebastian’s personality. Claude is more indifferent, hardly ever showing any emotion, and a perfectionist who has complete control over the other household servants. Unlike Sebastian, Claude never seems to attempt to stop Alois from doing anything unjust or inappropriate.

Welcome to the new Cosplay Holic, the Kuroshitsuji Edition! Please let me know if anything isn’t working properly, or if the colors are too bright, and I will do my best to adjust them accordingly! I just hope using pink and gray won’t drive the boys away from my site.

Featuring Neko16 as Claude Faustus and Juunana as Alois Trancy! Please pay them a visit in the deviant art accounts!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 07

The Phantomhive butler who prides himself in his ability to handle every impossible task, Sebastian Michaelis has been known to use silverware as his weapon of choice in battle. He uses forks and knives as projectiles and is always able to make his mark, with the exception of death gods and  fallen angels. Sebastian is also an extreme cat lover, to the point of ignoring Ciel’s words to comfort a stray cat.

Impressive cosplay! The cosplayer really has Sebastian look down to his evil smile. Thanks to Andre for sharing this!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive and Meirin

A young master and his clumsy maid, Meirin was employed into the Phantomhive household in order to gain a new life and protect Ciel. Meirin is a talented sniper who does not need to use a scope due to her sharp, far-sighted vision. She was given glasses by Ciel in order to limit her vision and keep her from getting distracted in her work.

Impressive cosplays by Scootkadoot and Mostflogged! I really love how in character they are on this photo! Please do have a look through their galleries on Deviant Art when you have the time! Thank you also to The Dreamer World for the brilliant photography!

Kuroshitsuji II: Alois Trancy 03

Alois Trancy’s real name is Jim McCain, an abandoned orphan along with his younger brother Luca. Alois was angry at the villagers who mistreated them and thus began wishing for their deaths. Luca believed in him, stating the his brother could do anything he wanted. One fateful night, Alois’ wish came true, at the price of Luca’s life.

Such an awesome and eerie cosplay of Alois. I really love the accessories they added for this shoot. Thanks to Gabriel for sending this!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 06

After his parents were murdered, Ciel Phantomhive become a slave and a sacrifice for a religious cult ritual. While he was being tortured, however, his hatred grew for the people who took away his parents and freedom, summoning a demon Ciel named Sebastian Michaelis. It was then that Ciel sold his soul to the devil in order to gain the power to fulfill his revenge.

Gorgeous cosplay! Even if the hair is white instead of gray, I think it’s a minor error which can be overlooked. Originally found on Tumblr.

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 06

The Phantomhive butler that can do everything no matter how impossible it may seem, Sebastian Michaelis is demon bound to Ciel Phantomhive by a Faustian contract. His demonic self has yet to be revealed, but a depiction of sharp teeth, high-heeled boots, and elongated nails have been given. His present appearance bears a striking resemblance to Ciel’s father, Lord Vincent Phantomhive.

Beautiful cosplay by the late Saya! This scene is from one of my favorite episodes in the anime, so of course I had to feature it! Thanks to Mariane for sending this!

Kuroshitsuji: Drocell Cainz 03

The Mandalay Family's Puppeteer, Drocell Cainz initially appeared to be a cruel man with sadistic tendencies. Grell Sutcliff later reveals that the real Drocell has his soul seized by the shinigami five years prior to his appearance in the series, thereby indicating that he was already dead. His body was somehow reanimated with a temporary soul, manipulated by the fallen angel, Angela.

Stunning cosplay by Senri Kurenai! It’s simple yet captivating, with a look that so much like the original character himself. Thanks to Timothy for suggesting this!

Kuroshitsuji II: Alois Trancy 02

Alois trancy acts as a foil to Ciel Phantomhive; a literary term for a character who contrasts with another character (in this case, Ciel) in order to highlight the various features of the other character’s personality. Ciel actually cares for people and causes while Alois is psychologically scarred, pathologically abusive, and calculative. By appearance, Ciel is seemingly indifferent, while Alois is quite energetic.

Cute cosplay by ~MichiMichi-Miku! I love the way she’s posing for the camera and her boots are absolutely stunning! Thanks to ~JusticecanTrustMeX3 for the awesome photography and Cherokee for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji II: Alois Trancy

Earl Alois Trancy has a tendency to shift from being a carefree and happy child to a morbid and manipulative individual. Like Ciel Phantomhive, he has formed a contract with a demon known as Claude Faustus. However, that is where their similarities end; as Ciel thinks of Sebastian Michaelis as his Knight/Servant, Alois is completely dependent on Claude.

I did not like the second season of Kuroshitsuji very much, but I do love how this cosplay turned out. Thanks to Flight for suggesting to feature *juunana of Deviant Art!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 05

Although usually appearing to be emotionless, Ciel occasionally expresses his concern for the well-being of those who are close to him. He sometimes portrays himself as a happy person especially when undercover, but soon returns to his true self. Ciel is highly reliant on Sebastian, his butler, and does not appear to interact with the other servants of the Phantomhive Household as often, although they are all devoted to him.

Beautiful cosplay! The attention to detail is stunning and I believe this an artwork from the series’ soundtrack or drama CD. Thanks to Kuro-chan for sending this!
