Hey Anon! And lmao, I still think it’s Edward to be honest hahahah (that’s why she ran away afterwards when she woke up)!
Nah but seriously, all incest possibilities aside and even if it would be weird it can only be him or Sebastian since Ciel can’t even dress himself. So the most likely possibility could be Sebastian (since he’s a butler though as a man he isn’t particularly supposed to dress the ladies) but I find it funny to consider Edward as another candidate who changed Lizzie’s clothes before putting her to bed.
Choose which candidate you prefer Anon because I doubt Yana-sensei will answer us on this precisely, so follow your heart on this one 🙂
Have a nice day Anon and thanks for passing by!
Hey Anon 🙂
So my top 5… Well that’s obvious in my case since I’m a big Phantomhive fan, so Frances, Elizabeth and Claudia (despite only showing us her back) are definitely the best 3! I think they’re the prettiest women of the series (and I think Frances and Lizzie look like Claudia probably indeed)!
After them… Hm, I think Ran Mao is really really pretty too, so she’d be fourth, and I’d put both Angelina and Sieglinde on the fifth rank because Angelina was a very pretty lady but I also think Sieglinde is already growing into a fine young woman too!
I hope it answers your question 🙂 Thanks for passing by Anon!
condition, then the reason why he needs so much of the AB blood, could makes more sense. If Yana goes the RL route, they probably only need a certain blood component. If they have anemia, they would mostly only need the red cells, but why would they lose that much blood so quickly in the first place (if they do). If we look at it that way, the reason why the lords need lots of blood, could simply be because they don’t get enough of the components from the limited amount they have. 1L of 2/3
of blood, makes 550 ml of plasma, if they have 200mL (?) of blood in one bottle, that makes 110mL of plasma, which isn’t that much, and for platelets it’s even less, red cells are around 40-45% about 80 to 90 mL, and since there are only few AB donors to begin with, Sirius might simply not be able to get enough of what he needs. That’s the real life route, in which they would only need the specific components. If it’s the route the arc will go, I’m not so sure. It could, doesn’t have to. 3/3
Hey Bio Anon 🙂
Ah first of all, AB type is the universal recipient type for blood (O type is the universal donor) and since it’s definitely the rarest type with B type in western Europe, that would explain why Lord Sirius definitely doesn’t get enough blood from the weekly collect as we explained before yes 🙂
As for your theory in itself… Well, my answer might be boring because in the end it doesn’t change much from what I told you before but I just think that, while it’s really interesting, it’s too specific for Yana to write it as you explained.
I agree it’s fun, for people like us who are studying this kind of things, to try associating what Yana is conceptualizing with this arc to IRL biology and haematology, but it’s definitely sure a lot more people have no idea there is a difference between blood and plasma or what platelets even are.
Also don’t forget this arc also has a supernatural side to it, most definitely because of UT loitering behind the scenes and maybe because of Bravat’s character as well, so I doubt Yana would want to lose her readers by adding complicated biological explanations.
If you compare this arc to previous arcs (namely the GW arc with the Sarin gaz equivalent in Kuro!verse + the mustard gaz), you’ll see Yana-sensei generally doesn’t add too complicated IRL explanation which is why, for simplicity’s sake, I imagine it’s probably the case for this arc as well, the best example being Bravat’s bowl needing only one drop to determine what’s the person’s blood type even though there are four possibilities and he’d need at least two different tests IRL (and that’s without even adding the Rh factor).
That being said, your reasoning is correct in any case, it’s obvious the Lords are lacking something (hence the transfusions), Sirius being the one with the less providing due to AB type being the rarest blood type in this context. 🙂
As always thanks for your thoughts and sorry I have to be such a spoilsport all the time
Have a nice weekend Bio Anon, thank you again for passing by. 🙂
Hey Anon 🙂
Ah well I don’t really play chess, but a few comparisons with the Kuro cast are easy to make ^^ Obviously Ciel is King and Sebastian is his Knight and considering how the Queen is generally used in chess, Lizzie would make a good Queen in my opinion. 😉
As for the rest of the pieces… Well Ciel has many pawns (like the servants and other people from the underworld, Nina, Abberline…) but I’d give the Bishop piece to Lau because I can’t really consider him to be Ciel’s pawn + his role in the plot really reminds me of how you’d move the Bishop piece (even if that’s totally subjective, haha).
In a similar fashion, I’d give the Rook piece to Sieglinde because I believe she has quite the big role to play in the future problems that will definitely arise between Ciel and the Queen (the war subplot).
On a last note, if you were wondering, I don’t include the Undertaker as any chess piece on Ciel’s side because he’s not a pawn and I’d rather say he’s actually either on the adversary set or maybe even completely out of the chessboard (he’d be the one moving the pieces in that case).
I hope it answers your question! 🙂 Have a nice day Anon ^^
Hey Anon! 🙂
Well I know who the fourth main characters are for sure but it’s slightly more complicated to say who’s fifth and sixth to be honest. Anyway, the four main ones are definitely Ciel, Sebastian, the Undertaker and Elizabeth for me. 🙂
After them I’d put Vincent as maybe the fifth main character since he’s the reason the whole plot of Kuroshitsuji happened (because his murder triggered Ciel’s despair which led to the contract with Seb and the need for revenge), and for the sixth place… Um, honestly it could be Claudia if her death also has to do with Ciel’s personal revenge and Vincent’s murder (as I personally think it’s the case).
If not her then I’m not sure, because we have a lot of recurring characters but their significance when it comes to the plot (Ciel’s path to revenge) isn’t as evidently shown.
So I’d say Ciel, Sebastian, the Undertaker, Elizabeth, Vincent and Claudia are the main characters when it comes to the plot of Kuroshitsuji and Ciel’s story, but it’s totally subjective, especially in Claudia’s case since we only saw her shadow twice lol.
That’s how I see it for now and as always it can change with additional developments 🙂 I hope it answers your question in the meantime!
Have a nice day Anon 🙂
Hello Anon 🙂
Good question and I think many people theorized on this actually!
My personal interpretation is simply that we knew back then that the dormitories were very competitive against one another, but Violet always was even more peculiar because he’s very attached to things that are his.
You can see how nothing truly seemed to interest him besides drawing and letting his creativity out
(he is quite introvert), so I’m thinking between the shock and fear of seeing the dormitory burn in front of him, he simply couldn’t act rational upon witnessing that what was probably like a home to him was getting destroyed. That and maybe he was afraid of people getting hurt by trying to help too.
It’s true that Sebastian looked at him strangely though…
So maybe Violet’s reaction also had to do with the disparition of Derrick and Co since they were supposed to be in his dormitory… Maybe he was worried people would realize they weren’t here and since Ciel and Seb were openly conducting their investigation back then…
So I think it’s a mix, between the shock of the fire destroying the dormitory and the fear of someone like Ciel realizing Derrick and Co weren’t in the dormitory which would raise… embarrassing questions.
That’s how I see it 🙂 I hope it answers your question!
Yes you’re right, Sirius and Violet seem to have hands of the same size
However, does Ciel have hands that are really looking smaller?
Maybe a little yes, but that’s the only picture I could find of a comparison (in this arc) between Violet’s hands and Ciel’s so honestly I’m not sure.
It’s a good idea to compare them though 🙂 I just wish I had more than one panel to compare them with (technically speaking though, there is a five year age difference so at Ciel’s age his hands should be smaller indeed).
In any case, hands or not hands, feel free to follow whatever theory you think makes the most sense and personally, let’s say Ciel’s hands were of the same size as Violet’s, it still wouldn’t convince me that Sirius is a child/Ciel’s twin/clone, haha! 🙂
Thank you for your thoughts Anon! Have a nice day! ^^
Thanks Anon! But actually, I’m looking for a comparison panel from the blue sect arc only, if we’re to do this seriously. 🙂 The Weston arc came before the current one and we can’t know whether Yana had already imagined the blue sect arc at that time so really, the comparison between Violet’s hands, Sirius’ and Ciel’s can only happen if the panels are from the current arc.
As I said above though, I do think that Ciel being 13 when Violet is 18 or older is most definitely enough to know Violet has bigger hands.
Still thanks again for your help, that was nice of you :)))
Thanks for your prediction, and I could see that happening somehow. ^^
Especially for Violet, because he’s been giving his blood to Lord Sirius when the other S4 are not bothered on this point, or at least not as much as he is…
So he’s the one who’s the most at risk and I worry for him. :3
Honestly, from my point of view, either the S4 will be confronted to the truth because of Ciel’s intervention in the next few chapters or because Bravat won’t be too surprised when Violet collapses.
I doubt Bravat would let them face the harsh truth of the guests potentially dying at the Sphere music hall though, since they’re supposed to give people happiness after all, and besides…
…They seem to believe things are going smoothly for them for now (poor guys T_T), so I’d rather prefer the realization coming because of Violet collapsing or Ciel taking once more the role of the accuser. 🙂
Thank you for your thoughts, they seem rather accurate for me so now we just have to wait and see! ^^
blood were to be transfused into that person it wouldn’t make their skin any less transparent or the vessels any less visible. I’m just trying to look at this because I’m looking through some oldVSNew theories and I’m getting stuck on that part. As I had mentioned once, I like to stay neutral, but that doesn’t mean I won’t look deeper into stuff that seems illogical or doesn’t make sense. (We don’t know why they trasfuse the blood to Sirius, so I won’t theorise to much about any sicknesses) 2/2
Hey Bio-Anon 🙂
First thing first about Sirius calling Violet a child in this translation: I’ve actually explained that to different people and I don’t know how MS translates Japanese, but the text in the bubble in Jap is “Oide” which means “come here” and nothing else. So the “child” is completely taken out of translation and I don’t know why they did that.
Obviously you can’t know that unless you read Japanese but in any case don’t rely on analysis by translation of MS too much. 🙂 I’m very grateful to their work but they tend to write mistakes, though I have to admit this one sounds a bit too big since even someone like me (who takes one hour to read a page) was able to see it. Here’s the official translation:
I don’t know if MS’ translator really dislikes the 2CT or something lol, but even I who don’t like this theory can’t let this pass. This isn’t a clue to anything, Sirius literally just says “come here”. 🙂
Now as for the rest of your questions… Yes there are people who say Sirius = Ciel’s twin just like there are other people who says Sirius = Ciel’s twin = the Ciel we saw in ch113, haha, as always there are many different versions. 🙂
About Sirius = the Ciel of ch113:
My opinion on this is simple: anyone seeing Sirius’ arms and saying that he’s also the Ciel we saw in ch113 (because somehow they think pumping blood into someone with Sirius’ arms will give them arms like Ciel’s in ch113) is considering a theory different from the blood transfusion canonical explanation. Since I personally prefer canon though, I’m currently not considering the theory that Sirius of ch115 = the Ciel of ch113.
Bio-anon. A lovely week end for you too. Thanks for clearing up the translation part, I think that’s the problem when preferring to buy the physical copy and having to wait for that one to be released rather than just buying the official online translation. I would like to give another example why (if the 2CT is true) the “realCiel” most likely is dead and not a doll. Undertaker’s BD experiments only seemed to yield success recently, the result being the dolls on the Campania, it took ½
another few weeks/months to create the Weston dolls, and even those weren’t anywhere near perfect (though Agares was pretty far down the line for that one.) On a realistic stand point it wouldn’t be possible for Undertaker to have kept the body of “realCiel” fresh with no signs of decay, ie mummified skin and “humane” for 3 years and then create a doll, and neither is it an option that he turned him into a doll back then since, as already mentioned, his experiments only recently bore success 2/2
I hope you don’t mind if I answer this here directly, since it’s the same subject 🙂
[Edit: to anyone who wants to read this, I deleted the first answer of above by accident so it’s up again at the end of my second answer to Bio-Anon]
Yes, things are always lost in translation from Japanese to another language so it can’t be helped 🙂 Even if this mistake in particular is strange to me (I really don’t get why they’d add a word that’s completely inexistent). I know they tend to arrange the dialogue to make it sound more natural to readers but in this chapter’s case it really wasn’t the mistake to make, haha xD
As for the theory on Ciel’s twin being a BD: I totally agree with your points, the problem is that the 2CTers following this version might decide to ignore a realistic approach based on time and biology by simply saying “it’s fiction so Yana could still make it work”. I do think this is a good reason as to why Sirius is not Ciel’s twin (alive or as a BD), but unfortunately your points and my answer of back then are most likely going to be ignored until Yana addresses the matter in canon. Sometimes that’s how it is haha! ^_^
Thank you for passing by and for your very interesting thoughts, it’s always a pleasure Bio-Anon :3
[First explanation that got deleted accidentally]
About Sirius = the Ciel of ch113:
My opinion on this is simple: anyone seeing Sirius’ arms and saying that he’s also the Ciel we saw in ch113 (because somehow they think pumping blood into someone with Sirius’ arms will give them arms like Ciel’s in ch113) is considering a theory different from the blood transfusion canonical explanation. Since I personally prefer canon though, I’m currently not considering the theory that Sirius of ch115 = the Ciel of ch113.
You said: “if theblood were to be transfused into that person it wouldn’t make their skin any less transparent or the vessels any less visible” and you’re 100% on point. 🙂
For me, this theory isn’t accurate for two reasons:
because biologically it doesn’t make any sense.
because (in case you need an explanation fitting canon outside of biology) Violet’s arms look nothing like Sirius’ and yet we know Violet has been giving his blood to Sirius. So, because he’s risking anemia, we can say Greg is in a dire state where he needs blood like Sirius does, and yet his arm looks nothing like Sirius’.
That’s why I believe the person in ch113 was our MC Ciel and I still believe Sirius is a very old guy because, if arms are supposed to change when you need blood and when you had your fill (in Kuro-verse), then Violet’s arms would look like Sirius’ at the end of ch115 and it’s just not the case.
About Sirius = Ciel’s twin:
Well I don’t particularly like the 2CT in the first place, but between the version in which Ciel’s twin is dead and the one in which Ciel’s twin is alive, I’m definitely choosing the version where the twin is dead, because I believe that in that case we can trust Ciel saw him getting stabbed in the heart on the altar.
As for the theory that Sirius is Ciel’s twin in BD mode because of UT, if you need my answer, it’s here 🙂
I hope it could provide help for your researches Bio-Anon. 🙂 Thanks for passing by and have a nice week end!
(ps: @dorkshadows: I know you’re super busy but in case you *might* be interested, this post might have a few points we haven’t necessarily discussed yet :))
Hey, Anon! Thank you for reading! ^_^ However, please don’t worry about Violet too much for now.
I fear for him myself (I really like the P4 quite a lot) because he’s in a dangerous position (like Lizzie) but as a AB type, he should be able to be transfused with any other types, so maybe someone (read, Sieglinde) will figure out how the blood types are working before the end of the arc and that’s how Lizzie and Violet could be saved.
….Actually Lizzie is in a more complicated position because, while Violet can receive any type for the blood transfusion which could save his life, Lizzie can only receive type B (which is quite rare) or type O, so let’s hope someone will figure it out completely otherwise, well, death is a painful possibility.
Of course, Yana-sensei is accentuating on the possibility that Violet could die (the last chapter is quite flippant on the point) but still, I say stay positive because:
we never know
he’s a cool character and I personally really want him to survive.
It’s true the P4 have done a lot which often resulted in bad actions, but they’re not evil guys (just naive boys who don’t really know what they stepped into) and I believe they will have to pay for this at some point, especially since they made a deal with UT apparently after the incident with Derrick Arden (so yeah, maybe with their lives, we never know), but as long as Violet is still around, you should stay hopeful. :3
Here’s the littlelong theory for the last Kuro chapter, resulting from a very nice discussion with @thedarkestcrow when spoilers came out for anyone interested 🙂 And I also thank @dorkshadows and @wondrouswatchdog for their help with some details. ❤
A warning though: I’m already aware that many people took the scene I’m going to talk about as a hint for the 2CT (understandably so), and while I respect all people’s opinion, since I chose to interpret it differently in this post I ask that you please refrain from commenting only about the 2CT (any version) in case you want to add your thoughts. 🙂 I don’t really want to start a dialogue of the death so thank you in advance ^^
((A TL;DR paragraph is at the very end in case you don’t want to read the long explanation.))
About Lord Sirius…
Considering how the Blue Sect arc was presented as supernatural with Bravat’s fortune-telling when in fact it’s about blood collect and probable blood transfusion experiments, I’m not ready to consider that the person is a vampire/Ciel’s twin/Ciel’s clone yet.
For me, Sirius is someone we don’t know and who’s very very old, judging by what looks like to be a typical case of varicose veins on his arms and hands. In case you don’t know what it is, just try to compare your arms with an elderly person’s (because google images can be a bit gruesome), you’ll see how it is a consequence and sign of advanced age. 🙂 Old age would also explain why it looks like his shadow and Ciel’s in ch113 are of the same height because most people shrivel after a certain age, but this is a detail really (because Yana could be 100% trolling us with the shadows).
Now before I propose an answer as to why Lord Sirius would need blood, let me go back in the timeline a little. Remember the Campania arc? At some point after things got crazy, Ciel wonders just why the BDs are “supposedly” taken to America…
The Osiris company was barely ever talked about after this, and since Ciel guessed that it might be a phantom company, we readers never knew whether he investigated them or not. But the thing is, it’s probable that this company really exists, because when UT is asked what was the point of the experiment on the Campania he answers:
and I’m thinking “that eccentric bunch” could refer to the Osiris company.
Now what’s the link with the Blue Sect Arc? Well, Ryan mentions a new drug (as in medicine) and the Blue Sect Arc definitely gives off a medical vibe with the blood collect and tranfusions, so maybe Yana-sensei intends to really introduce them in this arc. Besides, it appears that they could be eccentric and if that’s not how to define Bravat, then I don’t know what adjective would suit him, haha! ^^
Back to “Lord Sirius”, I also consider for the sake of this theory that he is a part of the Osiris company, probably someone very important too, since both Bravat and Violet kneel in front of him, but he might not be the only “Lord” inside the Sphere music hall, as @thedarkestcrow explained here, which would make sense considering Lizzie’s behavior so far.
After all, Violet and Lizzie seem to be the only two really unhappy at the Sphere music hall and now that we have an idea as to why for Violet (they’re endangering him by taking his blood too often), it’s easy to think it might be the same reason for Lizzie.
It’s the Victorian era so, as Sieglinde and Wolfram explained, the blood transfusion technique is not mastered yet at all and I’m thinking discerning the 4 different blood types is all Bravat can do for now.
This is why they probably don’t know how AB types are universal recipients or O types are universal donors, so since the Sirius star represents the AB type, Violet has to give his blood when the mass collect during the week isn’t enough for Lord Sirius (because there are not a lot of people being AB, as we saw when Ciel went to the private event).
Same for Lizzie, if the Canopus private event doesn’t bring back enough blood during the week (second rarest type) then she probably has to give her blood (or radiance in Bravat’s words) to a Lord/Lady Canopus, like Violet does for Sirius. Why her and not Redmond though? Well, because…
The S4 are the poster boys for the Blue Sect, they’re very important to seduce the masses and bring even more people to the blood collect sessions, which is probably why Lizzie is giving her blood and not Redmond as long as Bravat can avoid it.
In Violet’s case though, he might be the only one staying at the Sphere music hall who is AB type, which is why he doesn’t have a choice even though he is a member of S4 (poor guy).
I hope these details make sense somehow, sorry this has to be so long (I’m not good at explaining with a few words :/). Now I’ll try to answer why Lord Sirius could need blood for, especially if the Osiris company is involved because it could be linked to the concept of immortality.
Considering the name of the company, it’s quite easy to think that it might have to do with the Osiris myth, which is about Osiris dying because of his brother’s jealousy and Isis his wife reviving him (nice summary here): it is associated with the idea of immortality (for the soul) and a regeneration beyond the grave.
I find that idea particularly interesting because it fits with UT’s bizarre doll project, since he is trying to bring people back from the dead through experimentation on cinematic records (souls are another step) and since it appears the Osiris company was involved with the BD incident during the Campania arc. Besides, it’s nothing new that there is a high chance UT is involved in this arc…
So maybe he’s helping/working with/using the people at the Sphere music hall, maybe even for the sake of his own experimentation (new Bizarre dolls for example).
As for the Blue Sect, if we consider they’re a part of the Osiris company, maybe they actually got the idea to experiment on blood transfusion because of UT’s bizarre doll project. UT gave them an example of what he could do when it comes to “resurrection” with the BD project during the Campania arc, so maybe they got inspired by him and his ideas and are trying for their own experimentation (the thing is, only a shinigami can work on cinematic records, so that could be why they’re trying with blood, especially since Lord Sirius probably isn’t dead yet).
If we consider Bravat’s words…
It seems “the light” of Lord Sirius probably refers to life while “radiance” is Violet’s blood, so Lord Sirius is probably not doing so great and it would be interesting to see if Bravat and Co. are convinced that maybe blood transfusion can stop someone from dying of old age or simply reverse the effects of natural aging for a time.
I had this idea because IRL some scientists are trying to prove that blood transfusions could be one way to reverse aging (note that I think it’s never happening but that’s not the point) and besides Ciel said…
Meaning that important people are investing money in the Blue Sect for a reason, but honestly as @thedarkestcrow said it’s very surely not because the S4 sing well or because of free food, haha!
However if the Blue Sect is conducting an experiment trying to show that stopping death (or reversing aging for a time) through blood transfusion is a thing, I’m sure many people would be ready to invest money in order to get more results since we all get old before dying. They feel concerned by the results of the experimentation so they pay, that’s what I mean 🙂
Last thing is: Othello who just got introduced is from the forensic department and he was sent probably because the superiors might need someone to explain why there are so many cases of death by blood loss in London. If the reason is “medicine experiment gone wrong and unethical” then it makes sense that someone with the scientific knowledge is sent rather than just a regular Shinigami.
That or if the Blue Sect is actually keeping Lord Sirius (and others?) alive with blood transfusions, the Shinigamis’ list for the collect might be all messed up and the Superiors sent someone to find an explanation. 🙂
TL;DR for the theory of this month’s chapter:
The Blue Sect might be affiliated with the Osiris company introduced during the Campania arc.
Lord Sirius is a very very old guy (varicose veins on his arms as a sign of old age for me) probably important in the Osiris company, who has blood pumped into him either so he can stay alive because he’s very very old, or because they’re experimenting to see if (”young”) blood transfusion can reverse aging (might be both actually).
Violet (blood type AB, rarest) and Lizzie (blood type B, second rarest) are probably personal blood donors, in case the quantity of blood collected for all types each week isn’t enough to keep Lord Sirius (and maybe Lord Canopus?) in good shape. Therefore they’re likely to be more in danger than anyone else at the Sphere music hall (because of anemia).
Important people are supporting the Sphere music hall according to Ciel’s investigation, probably because the experimentation concerns them (my point being that they wouldn’t invest money if that was just to see Lord Sirius being a vampire or dealing with his blood disorder).
There is a big chance the Undertaker is involved (the Osiris myth has a big parallel to the BD project besides the fact he’s most probably acquainted with the Osiris company since before the Campania arc) though his reasons are as always hard to pinpoint. It could very probably be for new BDs though.
Considering ch108/109 and how Ciel is already on the move to go get them, we are probably in for a plot twist (involving UT). Maybe he’s after Ciel, and that’s why he warned Bravat about Sebastian and also why Lizzie is involved in this arc in particular (especially since Bravat used her feelings to trap her inside the Sphere music hall). Unless Bravat is supernatural of course.
Othello who is a part of the “geekiest division of the Shinigami dispatch” might be a hint that something unusual but scientific is behind all those cases of death by blood loss.
Whew, I’m sorry it was so long guys T_T but I hope it was interesting and it made at least some sense. As always, it’s just a theory and it might get disproved next month for all I know, but it’s always fun to try assembling hints! ^^
Thank you for reading and feel free to ask anything! 🙂
At the end of the latest chapter, there’s this mysterious person who is being called “Lord Sirius” by Bravat.
Whoever that person might be (and I won’t discuss the 2CT here) it seems like Bravat is not – or at least not the only – mastermind behind this sect. When we see Lord Sirius’ arm it has very visible veins and it looks as if blood is being pumped into his veins.
The gears behind Sirius’ chair could belong to a machine that pumps the blood that’s being collected at the meetings in the music hall into the body of the person sitting on it.
So apparently Lord Sirius is in need of blood transfusions.
Bravat brought Violet to him and it seems like he needs Violet’s blood:
Violet represents the star Sirius in the S4 choir, so (if we assume that the stars stand for the different blood types and Sirius, being the rarest, probably standing for type AB) it’s very likely that Violet, like Ciel, has the blood type AB. Since the person on the chair is called Lord Sirius he’s probably type AB, too.
Assuming that the members of the sect don’t know everything about the compatibility of the different blood types (one of the reason for all the deaths), they probably don’t know that AB is the universal receiver. So even though Lord Sirius could get anyone’s blood (not considering rhesus types), for now they probably only give him blood of type AB. And because that type is very rare there might barely be enough for Lord Sirius and that’s why even Violet has to give his blood for him.
However, beside Sirius there are also three other stars and the sect is not only interested in the blood of the Sirius group but also in that of the other blood types. So there might be other persons like Lord Sirius. Maybe there’s one Lord for each blood type and they all receive these kind of blood transfusions.
If that’s the case then maybe the person Lizzy was sitting next to in the last chapter was Lord Canopus since that is the star under which protection Lizzy is.
But there are still many open questions: Why does Lord Sirius (and the other Lords if there are any) even need the blood? And what connection does Lizzy have to them? What’s Bravat’s role? …
2/3 would need a blood transfusions. Non really stood out and fit the latest chapters reveal though. I mean, lead poisoning fit, and leukemia too, and a few others, but I doubt that the people in the victorian era knew much about how to treat those ailments. It would probably be a more obvious for condition for “Sirius”. Though I am just gonna put the conditions under which regular blood transfusion is required, so that you can maybe see for yourself: severe infection or liver disease that stops
3/3 your body from properly making blood or some parts of blood. An illness that causes anemia, such as kidney disease or cancer. A bleeding disorder, such as hemophilia or thrombocytopenia. I believe some of them can already be ignored because I doubt the medics in the victorian hospitals what some of those conditions even are, but some of them seem slightly plausible, like hemophillia, but I just lack the necesarry background knowledge of “Sirius” medical history to say much about that.
4/3 btw, I’m not to fonds of math either, but it is a necessary evil…wish it wouldn’t be so boring though.
Hey Bio-anon! (cute name :3)
Yeah too bad about anemia really, but let’s just say that during the Victorian era they didn’t know about hemoglobin and iron levels (which is probably the case anyway, haha).
You’re also right, after ch115 it seems that Lord Sirius is in need of blood very often, but I doubt that even hemophilia/thrombocytopenia
back then would have needed so many and apparently regular transfusions (poor Violet), though I’m no real expert in this (especially since we’re supposed to consider the time era and my head is filled with all the drugs/therapies I learnt for hematological disorders nowadays) and I don’t think one can make generalities in this case without any additional info.
Honestly though, considering that Kuro is not particularly on the rational side as an AU (I mean, shinigamis, BDs, demons… Supernaturality is quite present in the plot), I don’t think Lord Sirius is suffering from a medical condition in particular. It might be too complicated to introduce and explain by Yana and there is a chance a part of the truth of this arc is linked to UT who is a supernatural being after all.
I actually have a theory about Lord Sirius, Violet and the blue sect arc in general, but I will need some time to write it, so I hope you don’t mind if I don’t explain right now in this answer what I mean by that. 🙂 I think I’ll make a post on it if I can find the time (exams are coming) but it might take a little time.
In the meantime, I hope you still enjoyed the chapter and thank you again for sending me such details thoughts, it’s always interesting! 😀
(the ps is under read more)
PS (thanks for reading my tags ^^): oh math is just the worst thing ever and nope, definitely not necessary at all for me. I always compensate it by better grades in other subjects to validate my semesters for college.
It’s been some kind of fear since 11th grade when my horrible math teacher came in one morning and said “here’s this number, it doesn’t even exist and its square root can be negative” and I was like “??? wtf negative square root?! and if it doesn’t exist then what’s the damn point?!” And the guy gave me impossible problems to solve afterwards which is when I decided that it was #forever-hated. XD
Have a nice day/evening, Bio-anon and thank you for passing by!
