Black Butler, Vol. 1 by Yana Toboso
5.0

Wow, that took half my workday! But finally finished up the first volume (again) and it's just as fun, wacky, and dark as the first time I read it, loved it. Also, I'm just realizing how little actually happened, we only got one case solved! And I hadn't realized how the first anime episode is...not here?! It was a lie?! I thought for sure at least the first few episodes followed the manga, but no. So if you watched the anime, I'd jump on the manga from the start for a more intriguing story. Still as humorous as the anime but far more developed and dark

And if you've never heard of Black Butler but enjoy murder mysteries, demons and contracts, horror, Victorian-era London, very handsome men, morally grey (nearly villainous) leads, and are in need of something funny but with a plot, check this out
