Black Butler II Talkback (spoilers for season one)

[SigmasonicX]

In just one episode, Black Butler II (Kurosh*tsuji II) has established itself as the biggest troll of the season.

In all of the promotional art, a new set of characters were shown to replace those of the previous season, who had died/gone to the underworld, and the opening showcases them.

But then,

Spoiler:

Sebastian appears, beats up the new butler and then revives Ciel at the end of the episode. The next episode preview features only the characters from the first season, and Sebastian is talking over it, saying that the other butler you (the viewers) saw must have been an illusion caused by the summer heat.

I initially wasn't interested in watching it, but I thought this troll was too great. Besides, I found the first season decent enough.

The show is being simulcast by FUNi, though I don't see it on their site yet.

That's how they're gonna continue the series?! That is so lame!!!
And I just hope the animators won't have that redheaded chainsaw carryin' weirdo return. He was creepy! In any case, I'll be waiting for the Cantonese dub to air in Hong Kong just a few weeks from now.

That is so lame!!!

That's not how you spell "awesome," sir.

Seriously, best troll ever. Reminds me of Shadow Hearts 2 where they hid Yuri from all the trailers and pictures.
