This is my favourite manga series by far . . . I cannot get enough of it and I agree with Yana Toboso - if a series gets this big; never use roman numerals. I can't wait for the next volume. ( )

Series Info/Source: This is the 31st volume in the Black Butler series. I bought a copy of this book.

Thoughts: I really loved this volume in the series. It was great to have the recap at the front of the book explaining why our characters split into groups again. This volume ties up Mey-Ren and Ran-Mao’s story in an explosive way. It was awesome to see Ran-Mao in action. Then we move on to Baldo and Lau’s group and watch as they infiltrate a sanatorium for war veterans.

I love all of these characters and am really enjoying the storyline as well. The illustration remains absolutely stunning too! It looks like the next volume will delve into Baldo’s past. I have been greatly enjoying getting a glimpse into the past of the Phantomhive crew!

My Summary (5/5): Overall this was an awesome read and I am so happy with the way the storyline is going with this series. Toboso’s illustration remains amazing and I love how she is moving this series along. I love this whole series and would highly recommend it!
