Black Butler season 5 episode 2 recap
The episode begins with Sieglinde Sullivan inviting Ciel and others into her Emerald Castle. The Phantomhive servants remain on the ground floor, while Sieglinde takes Ciel and Sebastian upstairs. Meanwhile, Ciel observes that Sieglinde practices foot binding, a practice which is commonly seen in China.
He wonders why someone from Germany would do that. Meanwhile, Sieglinde gets hungry, so Wolfram goes to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Interestingly, Sebastian joins him and cooks a sumptuous meal for Sieglinde. At this moment, Hilde informs everyone that the great Werewolf has been seen in the village.
Ciel, Sieglinde, and others head to the village plaza and find a young woman with injuries on her back. An elderly woman blames Ciel and the others for this, as the outsiders aren't allowed in the Werewolf forest. Meanwhile, Wolfram tells everyone not to go into the forest for the time being.
After returning to the castle, Sieglinde reveals that she's a witch who can read the thoughts of others. She also explains the Werewolf story. Sieglinde reveals how the witches were known as people who could drive away misfortune and save human beings with herbs.
Yet, they were seen as heretics. As such, they fled to the werewolf's forest to save themselves from their pursuers. One of the witches, named the Emerald Witch, offered her legs to a werewolf and formed a contract. She did that to save her kind. As such, her successors had to follow the ritual and bind their legs so that they couldn't walk.
Sieglinde thinks the original Emerald Witch's contract with the great Werewolf must have worn out. After that, Sieglinde tells Ciel that she hasn't left the village since she was born. She also hands him an amulet that will save him from the werewolf. That's how she befriends Ciel Phantomhive.
Meanwhile, at night, Ciel and Sebastian head to the forest to begin their investigation. At this moment, tears flow uncontrollably from Ciel's eyes. The duo also notices the werewolf nearby. Sebastian quickly returns Ciel to the castle and goes alone to pursue the mysterious being.
However, as he runs through the forest, the demon butler senses tears in his eyes. The episode ends with Michaelis Sebastian perplexed, as he cannot understand why someone like him, who is devoid of emotions, would cry.
What to expect in Black Butler season 5 episode 3?
Considering how the latest installment ended, Black Butler season 5 episode 3 will likely reveal more about Michaelis Sebastian and Ciel Phantomhive's condition.
There's a huge possibility that they have been affected by the Witch's curse for venturing into the forest at night. As a result, Sebastian might seek Sieglinde's assistance to cure himself and Ciel.
