Sadly, I am only giving this three stars, because I felt there was something lacking. Maybe it is the fact that literally everyone in this arc is a bishounen. The public school setting is one that I have seen better in other mangas (the names of the prefects are kinda cartoonish) and, well, what I am missing a bit is Sebastian giving Ciel shit - there was hardly any interaction between the two of them.
I miss a certain intensity. So far the plot has always challenged both Ciel and Sebastian and this time... everything seems so smooth. Also the fanservice was a bit odd.
Souma was a spark of light in all this. He is not as deep a character as Lizzie yet, but a constant source of cheerfulness, somewhat childish but that's not new. Shame that Agni couldn't be there too.
