♥ Quotes from Kuroshitsuji
"How arrogant." "Do non-arrogant people exist?"
"Because you hold great power, you gradually fail to understand the importance of things that cannot be recovered"
"Justice in this world is just a bunch of principles made by those with power to suit themselves"
"Don't cry so shamefully. Crying won't change a thing. The world is not kind to anyone"
"As long as they don't know the truth, everyone is always praising me on how wonderful they are."
"As far as society idiots are concerned, there's no such thing as success without sacrifice."
"Things once lost can never be recovered"
"Stealing the stolen, and repeating your reasons over and over again"
I really feel bad for Alois. If for anything, his past is worse than Ciel. I wouldn't start a debate on how and why his past is worse but, well, just see the video to rethink on why he is so twisted.
Firstly, he was orphaned and his only family is Luka. Besides that they had to endure the bullies from the other adults from the village, and they are only children!
Secondly, to force yourself to entertain an old and ugly man? That takes some guts. I mean, to actually strip yourself to the lowest form of humanity and to serve yourself to a total stranger. He had completely degradable himself to the position of a whore. (literally, don't get me wrong, I love Alois and the producers are more cruel than Alois himself) If I ever am those oba-san who cries over soap operas, my house would be flooded by now. To engage in sexual activities with a man so perverted and heartless, Alois is really desperate, desperate to climb out of the living hell.
Don't say that Alois is a whore or that he is bringing it upon himself. Because he is being forced to. He has practically no right over his life, if he does not resort to this, he would be like the other boys, "disinfected" and disposed. Rather than being that, he chose to be a sex slave of Count Trancy. That way, while he planned to kill him off, at least he can inherit his estate and he wouldn't have to worry about being bullied. This is the same as him trading his purity for power. Under normal circumstances, it would be something that we scoff and look down upon but this case is unique because Alois has to do it or he would probably be in a state worse than being a sexually abused.
But he did realise that even if he was the Trancy Earl, it is but a facade. Nobody cares about him in the end, not his servants, not Claude, not Ciel.
In the end, he is but a lonely kid, he has to walk life alone. He chose to make a contract with Claude because his only thought now was to save his skin. he eventually realise he was a pawn. That's why he was so clingy to Claude even though Claude wanted Ciel. Claude despise Alois but still he stuck with Alois because Alois's soul could act as a desert, if not a main course.
Alois knew it but he chose to overlook it because Claude was the only one he had, even if he was bonded to Alois through a contract, a contract that benefits the demons but undermines the human. That's why he said that,"Claude, you're my Highness."
Claude was of course appalled at this pathetic human but it further shows how Alois just wanted a companion, a friend, even if it was a demon who would eat him. Alois is but an innocent tainted by the cruelty of this world.
Rattling too much here! I really want to hug Alois!! He needs a teddy bear!

Just someone who happens to like Anime and Japan. That's all.
Don't come ranting on how I mistranslated the dialouges, I treat this as a way to improve my japanese as well as a passion. Even if you are thinking that I'm a bad translator, I do know that too.

For Kuroshitsuji translation, I would advise for those reading to open a smaller screen and place both side by side so that you can read and watch simultaneously. If you do not like watching on a small screen, maybe you can read first, and watch and read again to get the full idea

I try to keep the dialouges as close to the Japanese version as possible and hope that everyone reading can overlook the poor translations I've provided

Tarot card of the week
THE HANGED MAN
< font size=20 >Basic Card Symbols
A man hanging by one foot from a Tau cross - sometimes from a bar or tree. His free leg is always bent to form a "4," his face is always peaceful, never suffering. Sometimes his hands are bound, sometimes they dangle. Sometimes coins fall out of his pockets or hands.
Basic Tarot Story
The Fool settles beneath a tree, intent on finding his spiritual self. There he stays for nine days, without eating, barely moving. People pass by him, animals, clouds, the wind, the rain, the stars, sun and moon. On the ninth day, with no conscious thought of why, he climbs a branch and dangles upside down like a child, giving up for a moment, all that he is, wants, knows or cares about. Coins fall from his pockets and as he gazes down on them - seeing them not as money but only as round bits of metal - everything suddenly changes perspective. It is as if he's hanging between the mundane world and the spiritual world, able to see both. It is a dazzling moment, dreamlike yet crystal clear. Connections he never understood before are made, mysteries are revealed.
But timeless as this moment of clarity seems, he realizes that it will not last. Very soon, he must right himself, and when he does, things will be different. He will have to act on what he's learned. For now, however, he just hangs, weightless as if underwater, observing, absorbing, seeing.
Basic Tarot Meaning
With Neptune (or Water) as its planet, the Hanged Man is perhaps the most fascinating card in the deck. It reflects the story of Odin who offered himself as a sacrifice in order to gain knowledge. Hanging from the world tree, wounded by a spear, given no bread or mead, he hung for nine days. On the last day, he saw on the ground runes that had fallen from the tree, understood their meaning, and, coming down, scooped them up for his own. All knowledge is to be found in these runes.
The Hanged Man, in similar fashion, is a card about suspension, not life or death. This is a time of trial or meditation, selflessness, sacrifice, prophecy. The Querent stops resisting; instead he makes himself vulnerable, sacrifices his position or opposition, and in doing so, gains illumination. Answers that eluded him become clear, solutions to problems are found. He sees the world differently, has almost mystical insights. This card can also imply a time when everything just stands still, a time of rest and reflection before moving on. Things will continue on in a moment, but for now, they float, timeless.
Thirteen's Observations
Neptune is spirituality, dreams, psychic abilities, and the Hanged Man is afloat in these. He is also 12, the opposite of the World card, 21. With the World card you go infinitely out. With the Hanged Man, you go infinitely in.
This card signifies a time of insight so deep that, for a moment, nothing but that insight exists. All Tarot readers have such moments when we see, with absolute clarity, the whole picture, the entire message offered by a spread. The Hanged Man symbolizes such moments of suspension between physical and mystical worlds. Such moments don't last, and they usually require some kind of sacrifice. Sacrifice of a belief or perspective, a wish, dream, hope, money, time or even selfhood. In order to gain, you must give. Sometimes you need to sacrifice cherished positions, open yourself to other truths, other perspectives in order to find solutions, in order to bring about change. One thing is certain, whether the insight is great or small, spiritual or mundane, once you have been the Hanged Man you never see things quite the same.
