Black Butler II/Fridge
Fridge Horror
- The most notable happens in the second season, considering Alois' whole life is a bit of Fridge Horror. After his little brother and entire village are killed, this already slightly off boy (who laughed cheerfully as he robbed the dead) begins living as a true city street rat. Knowing how things like that work out, and especially after seeing his reactions to things later on, it's quite obvious that this young boy solicited himself for food or shelter before he even hit a double digit age.
- Think about this: Jim is only around 11 when he goes to Earl Trancy's manor. There, he living with a bunch of boys in the same condition, being bathed and treated like cattle, all while being a sex slave to an old man. At the age of 11. It's quite obvious even then he is not a virgin, as he dolls up and puts on a beautiful red robe, seducing the old man expertly until the guy's kissing his feet. He even becomes the favorite boy, taking place for the man's son who vanished as a baby - the real Alois Trancy - which allows him to take the name Alois after Claude kills the Earl.
- It's also quite likely that Arnold Trancy knew of his brother's "hobby", and said nothing of it, whether he himself has the same interests. After all, Arnold seems to be pretty sure that Alois isn't the real Alois, and not just because he's a greedy bastard. Maybe he'd be able to somehow prove this, if only he didn't have to hide that his brother was a pedophile with a harem of young boys in the basement before his death...
- Alois is often seen abusing poor Hannah the maid during the series. This becomes a little more of a Fridge Tear Jerker (depending on how sappy you are) when you realize that the whole time this abuse is happening, Luka - Alois/Jim's beloved little brother - is living inside Hannah as a soul. Hannah says that Luka is "sleeping", but there can still be questioning on how aware Luka is of what's happening.
- In episode 8, after Claude so cruelly kills Alois and leaves his body in the woods, a rather tattered and beaten Hannah - whom we just learned is a demon - emerges from the woods, and lays over Alois' body. She calls him her master affectionately, and puts her lips to his eyes, and glowing occurs. At first, many fans believed her to be apologizing to him or mourning, bringing him back to life, or turning him into a demon. Not so. She ate his eye, and kept it in her throat until episode 11. She uses it to scare the hell out of Ciel, allowing Alois' soul to take over. And then, it replaces the eye that Alois gouged out of her. Lovely.
