Yana’s parodies in Kuroshitsuji

As many Kuro fans know, Yana loves making parodies and homages. Some of them are pretty obvious (e.g. Titanic/Campania, murder arc/Sherlock Holmes, Eton/Weston school etc), but some of them might be a bit difficult to recognize as such. So here are some parodies you might have not noticed yet =D

Parody 1: The fictional TV series “The Wild (rowdy) Count” (暴れん坊伯爵) which Finny and Ciel always watch together is a parody of the real Japanese TV series “The Wild General” (暴れん坊将軍).

(In the Japanese original version the parody is even more blatant since the fictional title is written in the exact same font as the original title.)

Parody 2: The P4 (Prefect 4) in the Weston arc is a parody of F4 (Flower 4) from ‘Hana Yori Dango’ (engl. ‘Boys Over Flowers’) which is one of the most popular and best selling shoujo manga of all time in Japan. F4 is the name of a group of four good-looking and super-rich boys, who are the rulers of a high-society elite school where the story takes place.

Parody 3: The cute scene in which Redmond ties Ciel’s necktie is a parody of ‘Maria sama ga miteru’ (engl. ‘Maria Watches Over Us’), which is also a popular shoujo manga and takes place in a prestigious girls’ highschool. This parody is quite blatant because both the situation (a newly-enrolled student is suddenly approached by a gorgeous upperclass-student who straightens their uniform neckerchief/necktie) and the line “Your tie is crooked” are completely identical:

Parody 4: This scene at the beginning of the Weston arc is a parody of　the so-called “A girl running around the corner with a bread in mouth“ or ”Late for school”, which is a well-known anime/manga trope. 

↑This is a parody of this↓

Parody 5: Undertaker’s pose in ch. 84 is a prody of the OP of a very popular anime called ‘Sazae-san’.

Parody 6: In side story “That butler, request” (scans are provided by smirking-raven) there’s a scene in which Arthur is surprised to death by mermaid-Grell. You might have noticed that he’s not drawn in Yana’s usual art style. It’s a prody of a famous Japanese horror manga artist by the name of ‘Umezu Kazuo’.

↑This is a parody of this↓

Even the way Arthur is screaming (“GYAAAA”) is a parody.

Parody 7: Druitt in the special chapter “Demon 6″ (scans are provided by vvlin91) is a parody of “The Rose of the Versaille” which was a very famous and popular shoujo manga in the 70s.
