I hadn’t noticed that Yatagarasu director Kyougoku Yoshiaki was a key animator on Seirei no Moribito. But it’s totally fitting. I can’t say Karasu wa Aruji o Erabanai is on anything like that level – almost nothing is. But it’s clearly cut from the same cloth, in the same way something like Akatsuki no Yona …
Kuroshitsuji: Kishuku Gakkou-hen (Black Butler: Public School Arc) – 03
