WEBVTT

00:00.740 --> 00:02.830
Germany, my lord?

00:03.170 --> 00:06.580
Yes. Her Majesty has 
ordered me to investigate

00:06.950 --> 00:10.590
a series of suspicious deaths in Germany.

00:10.590 --> 00:15.180
Whatever it was affected 
men and women of all ages,

00:15.180 --> 00:17.490
but the victims did 
have one thing in common.

00:17.840 --> 00:19.460
The "Werewolves' Forest."

00:20.050 --> 00:24.060
The Werewolves' Forest?

00:24.060 --> 00:29.260
Yes. They say everyone 
who sets foot in it is cursed.

00:30.940 --> 00:33.920
What are you doing here? How did you get in?

00:31.450 --> 00:33.920
<i>Are there no men in this village?</i>

00:33.920 --> 00:36.660
<i>And the women's clothes 
are centuries out of date!</i>

00:36.660 --> 00:41.410
I am Sieglinde Sullivan, 
the ruler of this forest.

00:41.740 --> 00:44.830
Where the hell're <i>you</i> from?

00:44.830 --> 00:46.810
Please excuse me for a few minutes.

00:46.810 --> 00:49.960
<i>What?! How do you expect me 
to interact with her by myself?</i>

00:49.960 --> 00:50.810
Hey, you.

00:51.050 --> 00:53.420
××× black hair ×× man ×× name?

00:53.420 --> 00:55.080
Um...

00:55.080 --> 00:59.640
<i>Wait. I can actually make out 
the key words if I don't panic.</i>

00:59.990 --> 01:01.450
Where ××× ××× parents?

01:02.120 --> 01:05.660
Parents... gone. Dead.

01:07.490 --> 01:08.230
Hmm.

01:08.230 --> 01:11.190
"Herr Werwolf." What does that term refer to?

01:11.190 --> 01:13.420
Have you heard of witch hunts?

01:13.420 --> 01:17.310
Witches were branded as heretics and oppressed
by humans more and more as time went on.

01:17.310 --> 01:21.200
Legend has it that to protect the others,

01:21.200 --> 01:26.070
one witch made a pact with a werewolf, 
offering him her own legs.

01:26.070 --> 01:30.550
That's why each successive ruler's feet
 are bound until she can't walk.

01:30.550 --> 01:31.590
A...

01:31.590 --> 01:33.200
A werewolf has appeared.

01:38.840 --> 01:39.970
Where's your talisman?

01:39.970 --> 01:42.830
It's Herr Werwolf's wrath!

01:42.830 --> 01:48.100
Leave now, unless you want him 
to tear you limb from limb!

01:48.490 --> 01:52.730
It's not becoming of a lady to eavesdrop
 outside a gentleman's room.

01:52.730 --> 01:54.940
May I ask your business here?

01:54.940 --> 01:59.530
I'd like you to tell me about 
the outside world that I don't know.

01:59.530 --> 02:01.870
All right, fine.

02:03.550 --> 02:08.400
Before... sorry. Let's be friends.

02:08.400 --> 02:11.790
Oh, that reminds me. These are for you two.

02:11.790 --> 02:13.470
Talismans to ward off werewolves.

02:13.470 --> 02:15.240
Wear them on your way home.

02:16.670 --> 02:17.670
Young master?!

02:20.510 --> 02:22.230
A-A werewolf?

02:22.790 --> 02:24.610
I'll chase the werewolf myself.

02:24.610 --> 02:27.000
You wait in your room, young master.

02:29.880 --> 02:30.590
<i>What?</i>

02:39.320 --> 02:42.280
<i>Me</i>, crying?

02:42.990 --> 02:46.870
Demons aren't endowed with 
the emotions that lead one to cry.

02:55.860 --> 02:58.510
Have you seen a cursed person?

02:58.730 --> 03:02.090
'Course I 'as! Right terrible sight.

03:04.600 --> 03:09.660
Faces swell'd up twice 'eir size
 an' skin all meltin'.

03:10.020 --> 03:16.790
One o' 'em died right there an' th' one 
'oo lived went doolally from th' shock.

03:19.510 --> 03:21.900
Don't tell me this is...

03:24.090 --> 03:28.440
<i>If it's true that those who see
 a werewolf are cursed...</i>

03:29.960 --> 03:30.700
Young master!

03:49.150 --> 03:52.990
Se-bas-tian...

04:42.780 --> 04:46.620
<b>Black Butler</b>

04:44.310 --> 04:46.620
<b>Emerald Witch Arc</b>

06:00.750 --> 06:01.760
Young master!

06:02.580 --> 06:05.630
My body is on fire!

06:06.890 --> 06:09.130
<i>This is the curse?</i>

06:17.080 --> 06:18.790
Frau Sullivan!

06:18.790 --> 06:21.630
Frau Sullivan, please help!

06:22.210 --> 06:23.470
Frau Sullivan!

06:24.330 --> 06:25.880
Please help, Frau Sullivan!

06:25.880 --> 06:28.770
What is it? Here for a carnal visit?

06:30.810 --> 06:32.510
Your faces!

06:33.690 --> 06:35.200
You entered the forest, didn't you?

06:35.200 --> 06:37.020
I apologise.

06:37.390 --> 06:39.690
Later, I'll suffer whatever 
punishment you deem fit.

06:40.450 --> 06:42.380
Just please save my young master.

06:42.940 --> 06:45.400
Young mistress! What's the matter?!

06:46.390 --> 06:47.360
You scoundrels...

06:47.360 --> 06:49.570
Wolf, the purification ritual!

06:50.250 --> 06:51.960
Prepare the cauldron room!

06:57.450 --> 06:59.460
Hurry! We haven't got much time!

06:59.960 --> 07:02.170
Undress him and put him in the cauldron!

07:02.170 --> 07:04.240
Quickly! Into the cauldron! Both of you!

07:06.930 --> 07:08.510
When did you enter the forest?

07:08.510 --> 07:10.240
About 15 minutes ago.

07:10.240 --> 07:12.630
Blast. That's really pushing it.

07:12.630 --> 07:16.690
Wolf, boil some water! 
And bring me more herbs for the tonic!

07:16.690 --> 07:17.350
Ja!

07:19.070 --> 07:22.780
While I'm reciting the incantation, 
submerge your whole bodies in the water.

07:22.780 --> 07:24.690
Don't come up until I tell you.

07:24.690 --> 07:25.310
Understood.

07:34.700 --> 07:37.660
O three goddesses of Fate,

07:37.980 --> 07:40.830
transform this water into 
the blessed Wellspring of Urðr.

07:59.390 --> 08:00.480
Done.

08:02.350 --> 08:03.940
What next?

08:03.940 --> 08:05.650
Internal purification.

08:05.650 --> 08:08.110
Make him drink this tonic, 
then cough it back up.

08:08.110 --> 08:08.920
Take this.

08:08.920 --> 08:09.700
Thank you.

08:11.280 --> 08:13.450
Pardon me, young master.

08:16.250 --> 08:17.530
Make him expel it now.

08:17.530 --> 08:18.360
Yes, Frau.

08:21.370 --> 08:23.020
Do you feel any nausea?

08:23.020 --> 08:26.330
Forget about me. Attend to my young master!

08:26.590 --> 08:28.290
Then, do it again.

08:29.250 --> 08:30.680
Stop...

08:32.520 --> 08:34.110
<i>What's happening?</i>

08:35.110 --> 08:36.200
<i>I can't breathe.</i>

08:37.040 --> 08:38.080
<i>It hurts.</i>

08:38.680 --> 08:39.860
<i>I'm cold.</i>

08:40.640 --> 08:41.600
<i>Please...</i>

08:43.400 --> 08:46.380
<i>Please stop.</i>

09:06.540 --> 09:10.380
All right, brats! Grub's up!

09:12.100 --> 09:17.150
No plates for you lot. Open wide!

09:22.840 --> 09:25.330
Oi! Don't spill it!

09:25.770 --> 09:29.250
We especially can't let <i>you</i> lads die on us.

09:29.250 --> 09:31.190
So eat up.

09:34.400 --> 09:35.370
<i>No.</i>

09:36.570 --> 09:39.630
<i>I can't breathe. I'm scared.</i>

09:42.450 --> 09:47.410
<i>Save me, Father... Mother...</i>

09:50.420 --> 09:51.560
Next!

09:52.090 --> 09:53.030
Hmm?

09:53.030 --> 09:55.010
This urchin's dead.

09:55.010 --> 10:00.530
Damn. Those nobles play too rough with 'em!

10:01.080 --> 10:04.900
<i>Will I end up like that, too?</i>

10:06.390 --> 10:11.310
It's all right. I'll protect you.

10:13.050 --> 10:18.210
<i>Oh, that's right. I have you.</i>

10:20.410 --> 10:21.710
<i>You're warm.</i>

10:26.700 --> 10:29.290
No! Don't take him!

10:40.650 --> 10:41.340
Young master!

10:44.150 --> 10:47.290
You had me worried, my lord.

10:47.860 --> 10:51.520
I'm so glad you're all right, young master!

10:52.980 --> 10:55.270
That took years off my life.

10:55.270 --> 10:57.100
Mine as well.

10:57.100 --> 11:00.700
How are you feeling, Master Ciel?

11:01.490 --> 11:03.250
Ciel?

11:06.660 --> 11:09.830
Young master, what's the matter?

11:14.990 --> 11:16.930
N-No!

11:16.930 --> 11:20.020
Ciel... No more pain!

11:20.670 --> 11:23.230
It's dark. Where are we?

11:23.230 --> 11:24.530
I'm scared.

11:25.120 --> 11:28.990
What do you mean? It isn't dark in here.

11:33.810 --> 11:38.280
Who's there? I can't see anything!

11:39.470 --> 11:40.370
Does that mean...

11:41.220 --> 11:43.670
I believe he has lost his sight.

11:47.300 --> 11:51.140
Someone bring a light.

12:00.500 --> 12:04.350
My poor young master's eyes!

12:04.350 --> 12:08.850
Enough. Stop cryin'. You'll jinx him.

12:08.850 --> 12:11.220
It might just be temporary.

12:11.450 --> 12:18.440
"We can't even look after him while 
he's in this state, though." ...says Keats.

12:18.440 --> 12:23.360
Yeah. S'bad enough he rejected us,
 but rejectin' <i>Sebastian</i>?

12:23.360 --> 12:26.110
What the hell happened to him?

12:26.570 --> 12:29.970
And I don't get why Finny's
 the only one he's okay with.

12:30.570 --> 12:33.160
What now, Sebastian?

12:34.040 --> 12:39.710
He has ordered me not to touch him,
 so I mustn't touch him.

12:41.380 --> 12:46.650
For now, let's wait until 
Frau Sullivan rises and seek her advice.

12:47.570 --> 12:49.670
The rest of you try to get a little sleep.

12:52.260 --> 12:54.130
What will you do?

12:54.730 --> 12:58.060
I have some business to take care of.

13:07.360 --> 13:13.610
<i>That strange miasma is gone, but there's
 still no sign of any living creatures.</i>

13:19.250 --> 13:22.780
<i>No evil entity's miasma 
should be able to affect me.</i>

13:23.930 --> 13:28.570
<i>So what exactly was it?
 And who was that "werewolf"?</i>

13:35.820 --> 13:37.020
At any rate,

13:37.610 --> 13:43.570
I'd better obtain permission to stay in 
Wolfsschlucht until the young master recovers.

13:44.940 --> 13:46.070
Dear me.

13:47.350 --> 13:50.070
This opponent may be a difficult one.

13:57.930 --> 14:00.900
I apologise for causing you 
so much trouble last night.

14:01.380 --> 14:03.380
As a token of my contrition,

14:03.760 --> 14:06.880
I took the liberty of 
preparing mid-morning tea.

14:07.340 --> 14:09.710
Bon appétit.

14:11.800 --> 14:13.200
It's so good!

14:13.200 --> 14:16.020
Try this too, Frau Sullivan.

14:16.020 --> 14:18.590
What is this? It's delicious!

14:18.590 --> 14:20.730
It's the finest...

14:23.120 --> 14:24.480
I see.

14:25.710 --> 14:27.960
So the miasma blinded him.

14:28.450 --> 14:30.910
Will he regain his sight?

14:31.290 --> 14:33.730
I'd have to examine him to say for certain,

14:35.120 --> 14:37.480
but you say he isn't letting anyone close.

14:37.480 --> 14:42.620
Actually, for some reason, 
he allows our gardener to touch him.

14:43.610 --> 14:48.340
Hmm. So he prefers them somewhere
between brawny and bouncy?

14:48.680 --> 14:51.010
He really has rather <i>particular</i> tastes.

14:51.010 --> 14:52.350
I beg your pardon?

14:52.350 --> 14:54.810
Uh, never mind.

14:57.210 --> 15:02.650
The forest's miasma weakens 
the human spirit and amplifies fear.

15:03.090 --> 15:06.780
There may be a reason the gardener 
is allowed near him while others are not.

15:07.150 --> 15:12.380
In that case, perhaps he is rejecting adults.

15:13.830 --> 15:14.790
Why?

15:14.790 --> 15:18.150
My young master has a past of his own.

15:20.480 --> 15:21.470
I see.

15:22.540 --> 15:27.000
Now, could you tell me 
what the forest's miasma is?

15:27.000 --> 15:31.440
It's an evil magic exuded by werewolves.

15:32.260 --> 15:38.740
Those exposed to it become cursed
and deform into a beastlike appearance.

15:39.520 --> 15:41.560
The only way to lift the curse

15:41.560 --> 15:45.480
is by using a secret medicine 
prepared by yours truly, the Emerald Witch.

15:46.070 --> 15:47.000
Ah.

15:48.650 --> 15:51.250
That's why I told you not to go in there!

15:51.610 --> 15:55.030
I told you so many times. Why did you go?!

15:55.380 --> 15:59.300
It's not as though werewolves 
<i>want</i> to hurt every human they see!

15:59.300 --> 16:00.750
Why don't you understand that?!

16:00.750 --> 16:02.710
Stop that, Wolfram!

16:11.090 --> 16:13.830
You wonder why we went there?

16:14.300 --> 16:18.370
We've met more than our share 
of demons and grim reapers,

16:18.370 --> 16:21.710
but we've never had the honour 
of meeting a werewolf before.

16:22.270 --> 16:25.680
We were curious to find out
what one would be like.

16:27.790 --> 16:28.780
Pardon?

16:29.460 --> 16:35.070
At any rate, you are the only one
 who can cure him, correct?

16:35.070 --> 16:36.200
Indeed.

16:38.800 --> 16:42.860
Frau Sullivan, please save my young master.

16:43.620 --> 16:49.090
If you will do that, 
I will follow any order you give me.

16:51.850 --> 16:53.010
Very well.

16:53.340 --> 16:58.090
In that case, Sebastian, 
until I finish healing Ciel...

16:58.640 --> 17:01.580
you will be my butler.

17:09.230 --> 17:12.690
Stop it! Don't touch me!

17:12.690 --> 17:16.650
Young master, you'll hurt yourself
 if you don't calm down.

17:17.060 --> 17:19.930
Shut up! Go away!

17:21.970 --> 17:23.490
Very good, my lord.

17:31.930 --> 17:33.960
Still no good today.

17:36.630 --> 17:40.070
I'm not quite sure how long 
it takes humans to recover, but...

17:41.780 --> 17:43.480
Perhaps it's been long enough.

17:44.330 --> 17:48.830
It wouldn't do to appear ugly
 while serving a lady.

17:51.170 --> 17:52.800
That should do it.

17:53.680 --> 17:54.660
Now, then...

17:59.500 --> 18:02.580
Until I finish healing Ciel...

18:02.580 --> 18:05.330
you will be my butler.

18:05.330 --> 18:07.250
Don't do this, mistress!

18:07.250 --> 18:10.020
We don't know the first thing about this man!

18:10.020 --> 18:13.110
We never get visitors from the outside world.

18:13.110 --> 18:15.510
There is much I want to ask.

18:15.510 --> 18:17.470
I've made my decision.

18:17.730 --> 18:18.920
Young mi—

18:17.730 --> 18:22.100
He must hold me by the hand 
and teach me many things.

18:22.610 --> 18:25.240
Hold me by the hand...

18:26.760 --> 18:31.100
More importantly, Wolf, 
Sebastian is more skilled than you.

18:31.100 --> 18:33.230
You should learn from him along with me.

18:34.650 --> 18:35.660
Ja.

18:39.530 --> 18:44.220
Oh dear. It's time to prepare 
the early-morning tea.

18:48.350 --> 18:50.830
Good morning, everyone.

18:50.830 --> 18:52.300
Mornin'.

18:50.830 --> 18:52.780
Good morning!

18:50.830 --> 18:52.780
Good morning, yes!

18:53.540 --> 18:54.750
Guests?

18:54.980 --> 19:00.330
The women of the village bring us ingredients
 and help the young mistress dress.

19:00.730 --> 19:02.470
Oh, I see.

19:02.470 --> 19:04.740
Allow me to introduce myself.

19:05.520 --> 19:13.440
My name is Sebastian, and I will temporarily 
be serving as Frau Sullivan's butler.

19:14.870 --> 19:15.960
I'm Hilde.

19:17.350 --> 19:18.470
Grete.

19:19.750 --> 19:20.990
I'm Anne.

19:22.320 --> 19:24.990
We'll be staying here for a while.

19:25.570 --> 19:29.240
If you have any tasks which require muscle,
let us know how we can help.

19:31.210 --> 19:34.920
Now, then. Time for today's staff meeting.

19:35.240 --> 19:37.650
Baldo, you start getting breakfast ready.

19:37.650 --> 19:39.130
On it.

19:39.130 --> 19:41.370
Snake, you polish the silver.

19:42.100 --> 19:45.870
"Understood." ...says Emily.

19:46.730 --> 19:49.120
Mey-Rin, you change the linens.

19:49.120 --> 19:50.520
Yes, yes!

19:50.750 --> 19:53.920
Finny, you look after the young master.

19:53.920 --> 19:55.510
Right!

19:55.510 --> 19:57.520
Wait, what?!

19:57.520 --> 19:59.540
<i>Me</i>?!

20:00.940 --> 20:05.740
Right now, you're the only one who can.

20:05.980 --> 20:09.060
Um, but, uh...

20:06.300 --> 20:08.690
If he's able to eat, 
take him a light breakfast.

20:09.370 --> 20:10.650
But...

20:10.650 --> 20:13.170
If he won't eat...

20:14.420 --> 20:16.920
...bring him some hot milk with honey.

20:17.900 --> 20:20.290
Milk?

20:20.920 --> 20:22.130
When he was younger...

20:44.490 --> 20:48.510
...it was the most effective way to cajole him.

20:48.950 --> 20:51.570
I will be looking after Frau Sullivan.

20:52.200 --> 20:54.430
Tanaka, you carry on as usual.

20:55.160 --> 20:58.060
To your tasks, everyone.

21:11.850 --> 21:13.200
<i>Good grief.</i>

21:13.860 --> 21:16.170
<i>He seems ready to bite my head off.</i>

21:30.160 --> 21:33.690
Young mistress, it's time to wake up.
