`Kuroshitsuji Chapter 61

Spoiler alert

Finally, a flashback to Ciel's past! Frankly speaking, I am curious to the events that happened when he was being sacrificed. Seriously, what's with that smirk on Sebastian's face and why was he so interested in Ciel? Was there something on Ciel's soul that he saw or had he witnessed the struggles of Ciel in the cult before appearing, thinking he can have a nice cat and mouse game with our little master?

Anyway, it started with Undertaker fighting with Ronald, Grell and Sebastian, and it appeared that they were to him, mice to a cat. And all shinigamis are confirmed to be short sighted! However Undertaker was not wearing any spectacles, so he is not short-sighted because he forfeited being one, or because he was wearing contact lenses, or because he went through lasik surgery (if they had that in Victorian England, lol)

Then climax came when Undertaker took Ciel hostage and Sebastian was forced to intervened. Ciel was thrown over the railings and Sebastian in his attempt to save Ciel, turned his back on Undertaker and as a result, was stabbed. Through the back and through the front.

Not a pretty sight... but it highlights the bond that Sebastian had for Ciel, it's as if he didn't care about himself anymore, that he was made to protect Ciel, to save him. I'm not shipping them but it appears that despite them constantly engaging in witty banters and trying to do each other in, they had forged a strong bond and Ciel is no longer the chess piece but the chess player. With Ciel gone, the game will end and Sebastian would have no one to play with. Sebastian wants to avoid solitude and thus he had to have an interesting playmate.

I've also been thinking, Claudia (no, not Claude) P, did it stand for Claudia Phantomhive? In Baron Kelvin's flashback (when he meets the evil noblemen chapter 32), there was a lady standing behind Undetaker. The Undertaker had obviously known Vincent Phantomhive and the Phantomhive family for ages.

Here's some Math
The date on the locket etched on the locket: 1866.
The present time of story: 1889
Years difference: 23 years
If we assume that that lady is really Claudia, then it would mean that she is Vincent's sister? Could it be that he had once loved Claudia but she had perished for some unknown reason?

However, we can't rule the possibility that it may be Vincent's Mother and that Undertaker could even be the father of Vincent. Which is why Vincent was in the "dark" side and Ciel could summon Sebastian, which explains which Sebastian was so interested in him. If that was so, then Undertaker may not have wanted to kill Ciel, just wanted him as a hostage because his main aim is Sebastian. Then that locket must be given to Vincent from his Claudia on his birthdate.

Or maybe he just loved Claudia but she ended up marrying someone else, but had in the end died. This created a void that left Undertaker broken. (think romeo and juliet without romeo dying!) Undertaker had said he quit being a Shinigami and as far as I know, love does drive one to do so. He also mentioned about lacking something, that humans will attempt to fill the void within them. As a retired Shinigami, he could have been an unmortal mortal. All the corpse he was collecting under the guise of an Undertaker was for this project of his and he had wanted to revive that someone - Claudia.

Anyway, plot development! A must read for those interested to see Undertaker, Ronald, Grell, Sebastian and Ciel! Oh wait, that's like everyone but it's badass awesome!

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.
