Characters

※Voice: Radio drama CD version/TV animation version

[Edit] Main characters

Sebastian· Mika Ellis (voiced by Tomoyuki Morikawa/Daisuke Ono)

The protagonist of the story. The butler of the Phantomhive family.

A contract was made with Sher. His true identity is not a human, but a demon.

Human attacks are ineffective against him. There is a magic circle (proof of contract) on the back of the left hand.

"Sebastian" is the name given by the current owner Shel (it originates from the pet dog previously raised by the Phantomhive family), and his real name is unknown.

Character, cultivation, knowledge, and appearance are all perfect, and he is a truly perfect man.

Sometimes you don’t curse on the outside, but you give the other person venomous comments in your heart. Often help the gardener, maid and chef clean up the mess.

The trick is "Three Balls of Ice Cream", the haunted area is on the heads of the three servants.

"As a deacon of the Phantomhive family, how can I not even do this level of things?", "I am just a deacon." are his mantras.

I like felines (especially cats) and like to press the fleshy balls on cats’ palms.

The origin of the name may be related to Sebastian Michaelis, a religious figure in Flanders (in today's Belgium and France).

In the famous saying "I'm just a butler (private はあくまで Butler ですから)",

actually implies "private devil でSteward ですから" (I am a devil and also Deacon)" means.

Ciel Phantomhive (シエル?ファントムハイヴ Voiced by: Miyuki Sawaki/Maaya Sakamoto)

The owner of Count Phantomhive's family. Born on December 14, 1875.

The English spelling of the name is Ciel, which means "blue sky" in French.

The ファントムハイヴファントム is the Japanese way of writing "Phantom", which means "ghost, phantom" in English. And ハイヴ is the Japanese pinyin of "hive", which originally means honeycomb but can be interpreted as "a group of people"; therefore, ファントムハイヴ can be interpreted as "a group of people in the dark", and a further explanation is the underworld.

At the age of 12, he was the president of "Vendome Company", a large-scale company that manufactures candy and toys. He was a genius industrialist.

He is willful, arrogant, calm and quiet. Afternoon tea time is indispensable. You can see the sweet-toothed side of Shelby as a child from the head of him eating the chocolate statue of "Earl of the House" that Sebastian made for the guests.

He made a contract with Sebastian on the condition that he would "give his soul to him after death", so Sebastian followed him as a deacon.

The right eye with the eyepatch has the same magic circle as Sebastian (proof of contract).

This "contract" has the function of ordering Sebastian to do anything, and he must obey it absolutely. However, the contract is also a mark used by the devil to track the person who made the contract, and it also means that he has made the contract. Contractors must never escape from the devil.

For the Queen (British Royal Family), he took on the dirty work of managing the British underworld. He is also known as the "evil aristocrat", "the Queen's watchdog" and "the order of the underworld".

In the 28th chapter of the comic, it was confirmed that he has asthma.

The old man who often drinks tea with nothing to do and almost does nothing at all.

But when he was young, he was the right-hand man of the former Count Phantomhive (Ciel's father).

A certain mysterious flavoring agent is often thought of as sugar added to drinks. (The scented tea brewed by the disguised Krel can be used to guess that the mysterious ajimoto is most likely Ajinomoto)

Meilin (voiced by: Orikasa Fumiko/Kato Emirati)

The housemaid of the Phantomhive family.

He has a confused personality and is clumsy.

I have extremely severe farsightedness, so I always wear glasses.

Have a good impression of Sebastian.

He often breaks dishes and tea sets, and his destructive power is no worse than Finian's.

Sebastian complained that "his problem is not about his eyesight, but his head."

Suspected to be of Chinese nationality.

Before becoming a maid, she was a sniper with god-like accuracy.

Finian (voiced by: Takagi Genki/Kaji Yuki)

Male. A young man with a cheerful personality but extremely confused, he is the most typical fool.

Has the ability to turn an entire garden into a wasteland in an instant.

He is full of strange strength and often breaks trees (sometimes it is Sher's crutch).

I like the Earl of Baofang.

Before becoming a gardener, he was a guinea pig who studied "strange powers".

Balder (voiced by Riki Oyama/Hiroki Higashichi)

The chef of the Phantomhive family.

Male. He often has a cigarette in his mouth.

Although he is a chef, he thinks that cooking raw meat with weapons such as flamethrowers is an art; and 80% of the food he makes is coke and the other 20% is harmful substances.

Before becoming a chef, he was a sergeant in the army. He was very good at using tactics. He was also a demolition expert and his shooting ability was also very strong (although not as good as Mei Lin).

I think Sebastian’s face, hairstyle, and personality are all obscene, but I think Sebastian’s existence is indispensable.

Being regarded as a model for Master Scheer to learn from by Sebastian.

The ultimate lady in appearance and physical skills, it is said that she defeated the head of the Knights, Marquis Midford, at the Queen's fencing competition with "strength beyond mortals" and got married. Sebastian commented as "a powerful and beautiful monster (erroneously)→a noble lady".

The former Count Phantomhive was going to marry her sister, so she was disappointed and sad, but she still blessed them mentally. Later, her sister gave birth to Schell.

Met Baron Barnett at a ball, and the two got married. Unfortunately, not long after she was pregnant with the child, the Baron was hit by a runaway carriage and died. The child's internal organs also ruptured, and the fetus and uterus had to be forcibly removed. With the care of her sister, she was quickly discharged from the hospital and was invited to Xie Er's tenth birthday party. Just as she was heading to the celebration, the Phantomhive family was brutally murdered by someone. The Duke and Duchess died in tragic circumstances, but the bodies of the children could not be found.

Later he became a doctor. When she was helping a prostitute perform an abortion, resentment arose due to the prostitute's words. The prostitute wanted to abandon what she had lost and longed for. So she began murdering the prostitutes she had performed abortions on and removing their uteruses (Jack the Ripper incident).

Later, Krell appeared, saying that they had the same disease (cannot have children), and assisted her.

A few months later, the missing Sher was found, and there was a deacon beside him.

Shell came to arrest "Jack the Ripper". Resentment ensued, and she was unwilling to let her sister deprive her of her things anymore, so she decided to kill Shel.

In the end, he was still unable to attack Schell, which aroused Krell's disappointment. Finally killed by Krell.
