What is Kuromyu? -A Comprehensive Guide- (updated)

For anyone who wants to stay informed and enjoy some pure brilliance.

Kuromyu, short for Musical Kuroshitsuji, is an umbrella term for the musical adaptations for the manga/anime series Kuroshitsuji. This term is only used in the English fandom. In Japanese, Kuromyu is better known as “Namashitsuji”, i.e. “Live Butler”, a wordplay of the series’ original title.

A brief timeline:

2009 Musical Dance-off Kuroshitsuji ~That Butler, Friendship~ [M1]

2010 Musical Kuroshitsuji -The Most Beautiful DEATH in The World- A Thousand Souls & the Fallen Reaper [M2.0]

2013 Musical Kuroshitsuji -The Most Beautiful DEATH in The World- A Thousand Souls & the Fallen Reaper (Rerun) [M2.5]

2014 Musical Kuroshitsuji: Lycoris that Blazes the Earth [M3.0]

2015 Musical Kuroshitsuji: Lycoris that Blazes the Earth 2015 (Rerun) [M3.5]

2016 Musical Kuroshitsuji: Noah’s Ark Circus [M4]

2017 Musical Kuroshitsuji: Tango on the Campania [M5]

To make things easier, I’d refer to them with their assigned code in the brackets. There have often been confusions about the way in which people refer to these musicals, but we generally understand that “Kuromyu 3” is Lycoris that Blazes the Earth, even when it’s actually the 4th installment of the Kuromyu series.

The cast of the main/reoccurring characters(Ciel’s actors are also marked with the respective age at which they played the character):

Below is a more detailed guide to each of the musicals & some essential/interesting info about them.

M1 (2009)

http://www.kuroshitsuji-stage.jp/1st/

Original story

Featuring original characters Yuuki, Kirito and Kai

Written by Asanuma Shintaro, who eventually was cast as the voice for Arthur in Book of Murder

M2.0 (2010)

http://www.kuroshitsuji-stage.jp/

M2.5 (2013)

http://2015.namashitsuji.jp/

Original story

Featuring original characters Eric Slingby and Alan Humphries, who subsequently made cameo appearances in manga and anime

Also introduced original character Sharpe Hanks, who has since become a Kuromyu regular as half of the “AbberHan” comedy dual with Abberline

Written by Okada Mari, who was also the head writer for Kuroshitsuji anime season 1 & 2 and creator of Alois, Claude, etc

M3.0 (2014)

http://2014.namashitsuji.jp/

Based on the “Jack the Ripper” arc from the manga, making it the first Kuromyu that is based on a canon story

Double Charles, who were not present in the manga at the point of this arc, were introduced into the story

M3.5 (2015)

http://2015.namashitsuji.jp/

Furukawa Yuta replaces Matsushita Yuya as Sebastian Michaelis, and Fukuzaki Nayuta became the first Ciel to reprise his role, ending the long tradition of the same butler serving different young masters

The first and only Kuromyu that has performed overseas(China)

M4 (2016)

http://2016.namashitsuji.jp/

Based on the “Noah’s Ark Circus” arc from the manga

Doll was never introduced as “Freckles”, and is played by a boy

Peter is played by a woman

M5 (2017)

http://www.namashitsuji.jp/

Based on the “Luxury Liner” arc from the manga

The first Kuromyu to keep both actors for Sebastian and Ciel from the previous musical

The Kuromyu series can be roughly divided into two periods.

M1 and M2.0 marked the experimental beginning of the series before it went silent for almost 3 years.

Nelke Planning rebooted the Kuromyu series with M2.5 in 2013, and many of the actors who joined Kuromyu in M2.5 reprise their roles in later installments.

Please bring this post to every Kuroshitsuji fan you know who doesn’t know Kuromyu, because they don’t know what they are missing out.

You, a Grim Reaper that kills innocent souls, just for the sake of a mere soul. I, a demon that receives orders, just for the sake of a mere soul.

Sebastian Michaelis, 'One thousand souls and the fallen Shinigamis' in Kuroshitsuji Musical 2: The Most beautiful death in the world; one thousand souls and the fallen Shinigamis.
