HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHUUYA

I really want to analyse this artwork by Yana-san.

BELOW !

This is obviously from the end of s2, when Ciel is turned into a demon by Hannah. I think there’s a lot to unpack in this picture just by facial expressions and body language alone.

——————

In the first picture, Ciel is walking very confidently. Knowing he is protected by his contract with Sebastian, and the pace he’s walking at shows he feels more confident in his surroundings or simply with Sebastian in this state. He also appears very determined like we see from him a lot, walking vigorously towards his goal and his revenge, his fate he knows is coming to him.

In the second picture, he is looking back at his human counterpart, almost enviously, as if he was wishing it were still him. He is very monotonous, as if his emotions and empathy have been drained from his transformation into something not human. He also looks slightly lost. Unlike in the first picture, he knows what he’s walking towards, he knows what he wants. In the second, he’s looking back, unsure about what is coming for him now that everything he expected is flipped on its head.

For Sebastian, this goes even deeper.

——————

Unlike Ciel, Sebastian is gazing back at himself in both pictures. The first shows him as we know, he is confident in himself and knows he is awaiting his meal, and for the contract to be complete. He seems proud with his current state and is almost looking at his future self with a “look how good I have it” expression. But he also looks almost ignorant, like he isn’t truly seeing what is behind him, it’s strange he would be looking so bitchy towards himself if he knew what he was actually looking at.

The second picture of Sebastian speaks volume, like, seriously. He’s gazing back with a longing at what he once had, his posture is less pronounced and he simply looks way more miserable. He knows he is trapped in an everlasting contract. But based on what we know about him, you would think Sebastian would appear more angry at his situation, and would be gazing back with a more vicious and envious expression like Ciel. But he isn’t, he just looks regretful, grieving and almost accepting of his situation.

My personal take on this artwork and what it represents is two things: one is that this is showing s2 as an alternate ending/fate as to what Ciel and Sebastian had in canon. It’s showing the different paths they went down and how it affected them. Second is that I feel this shows a representation of Ciel losing his humanity after his transformation, and Sebastian gaining his, as we’ve seen in canon material.

What do you guys think?

New gender unlocked: Black Butler season 5 intro

Silver threads across the night,

stitched in silence, stitched in spite

of all I lost and all I knew,

the stars remain, too far, too true.

They do not break, they do not bend,

they do not grieve, they do not mend.

Yet here I stand, a thing undone,

reflecting shards beneath the sun.

Each constellation knows my name -

or did, before I changed the frame.

Who was I when I could smile?

Just a child… just a while.

Now I reach for the moon’s pale thread,

a distant call I’ve come to dread.

It beckons me to lose, to rise,

but I am not what it implies.

If someone finds me in this night,

and sees through pieces into light,

then maybe stars can fall, and still

a broken gem might choose to heal

Of course ✨

Ебалась с этой хероборой полтора часа. Спрашивается какого хрена, учитывая, что это просто скетч. Вообще я люблю кисточки в пеинте, но бля какие же они геморные..

These sketches took longer than i thought. i really like the brushes in paint, but it takes a long time to draw with them

I LOVE THIS

made a Sugilite hnk oc
