In the middle of 2023, the Black Butler anime announced that it would get its next arc adaptation. But Animplex revealed that the anime would arrive in 2024. With a new trailer, Aniplex made the release date of Black Butler official. Once again, the young Ciel Phantomhive and his butler, Sebastian Michaelis, will arrive on the screen to solve the mysteries in this new arc. This new information arrived thanks to the Black Butler’s official webpage, along with a unique illustration commemorating Ciel’s birthday.
Black Butler Anime Release Date Will Be On April 2024
Crunchyroll previously announced that the global distribution of the Black Butler anime will be on its platform. The only country where Crunchyroll will not broadcast this new adaptation will be Japan. In Japan, networks such as Tokyo MX will transmit the anime. The webpage also revealed that the Black Butler anime will arrive in April 2024 and cover the manga’s Public School Arc. In this arc, Derrick Arden, the son of Queen Victoria’s cousin, has stopped communicating with his family and refuses to return home. So, the Queen sends a letter to Ciel to investigate the school. Ciel has no choice but to enroll himself in school and for Sebastian to get a job on campus.
Kenjirō Okada, in collaboration with CloverWorks, will be directing the Black Butler anime. Also, for this new part, the original voices of Ciel and Sebastian will return, with Daisuke Ono and Maaya Sakamoto. At the same time, the music will be in the hands of Ryo Kawasaki, who worked in Fate/Grand Order Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia and To Your Eternity. The adaptation of Black Butler: Public School Arc has a crew that promises many more mysteries as the new spring anime season approaches. Also, stay tuned because Crunchyroll is already introducing the titles for the next anime season.
