Still not convinced when it comes to the school setting. In a microcosmos like this, the fact that there are some things off would be palpabe in the atmosphere, but there is... nothing. And I don't get why, because Yana Toboso did a great job with the Circus arc, which was following a similar pattern.
The new characters seem kind of flat, the only thing that really got me hooked for a short while was Vincent and Diederich, because they actually had chemistry.
(The 'make out of punch each other in the face, preferably both' kind of chemistry.)
Things are still working out too well for Ciel.
