Crunchyroll has secured the licensing rights for the highly anticipated revival of Black Butler, catering to audiences outside of Asia. Fans can currently enjoy the original run of the anime on Crunchyroll or Hulu, both of which offer streaming services for this popular series. Additionally, Netflix and Funimation also offer the Black Butler anime, solidifying its status as a beloved dark fantasy classic.

Yana Toboso, the creator of Black Butler, introduced this captivating series in September 2006, published under Square Enix. The manga has been an ongoing success, captivating readers with its unique blend of dark fantasy and compelling storytelling. The original Black Butler anime adaptation, produced by A-1 Pictures, garnered a dedicated global fanbase.

However, fans were left longing for more as the original anime concluded in 2014 without fully adapting the entirety of Toboso's manga. With the revival of Black Butler, the goal is to breathe life into the remaining chapters, ensuring that fans get to experience the full depth of the story. Soon, viewers will once again witness Sebastian, the demon butler, striking new deals and engaging in thrilling adventures as the narrative unfolds.

If you're eager to delve deeper into the world of Black Butler, worry not! The official synopsis is here to provide you with all the information you seek: "THE BUTLER FROM HELL! Ciel Phantomhive is the most powerful boy in all of England, but he bears the scars of unspeakable suffering. Forced to watch as his beloved parents were brutally murdered, Ciel was subsequently abducted and violently tortured. Desperate to end his suffering, the boy traded his own soul for a chance at vengeance, casting his lot with the one person on whom he could depend: Sebastian, a demon Butler summoned from the very pits of hell. Together, they'll prowl the darkest alleys of London on a mission to snuff out those who would do evil. They're a rare sight, these two: the Butler who dismembers with dazzling cutlery and the Young Master who carries the devil's marking. Rest assured that wherever they may be headed, it'll be one hell of a ride."
