16 March 2023 is the day our next fanart animatic published in Youtube (link above). English dub version of "Ciel's Memory: The Big Four" drama track from Remastered Tracks Rockman Zero, "The Formidable Four".

After "What Comes Before" PreMMZX fanart animatic, I decided to make next animatic shorter than before due to fulltime job. For starters, I pick The Big Four not only I love The Four Guardians, but also this is an intro to them, hence an intro to new VAs for them, and intro to learning how to casting and working together in small group project. It's intimidating, but it comes to fruition.

Big thanks to Luna Love who helped me how the casting and voice acting world in general navigate; which she is the returning voice as Ciel in here!

And another big thanks to Percy Davis (Fefnir), Thea-Solone (Leviathan), and DangwooVA (Phantom)! They did tremendous job as the characters!

Hope you all enjoy our animatic dub stuff!

Below here is bonus: it's the same video, except I put original Japanese audio drama The Big Four one! So you can do comparison for funsies!

Also I'm not sure how to disable the question poll. I accidentally tap that icon. Sorry if it's visible after I post this!

Enjoy!

I was climbing a Fyodor Dostoevsky memorial with Ciel Phantomhive and a copy of The Mimic (from Roblox). We ended up in a supermarket that had been affected by the same virus ravaging our city.

Let's talk about the "Fenian brotherhood" theory !! :D

Firstly, in case you don't know about it, please go read the theory that our!Ciel's birth name might be Fenian/Fionn/Finnian by @azuresins. It is incredibly relevant to what I'm about to explain next !

TBH, I don't really care about discovering our!Ciel's birth name. However, I truly enjoy this theory and I think it makes a lot of sense, because I absolutely agree with the idea of Vincent supporting (secretly or not) Irish independence, turning him into a political enemy of Queen Victoria...

...which could be very much why he ended up dead.

This theory comes from a private convo with my friend, @dorkshadows and I'll sum up their thoughts (and some of mine) below the cut !

First of all, while we think Claudia, Vincent's predecessor, may have been a personal enemy of Victoria because of whatever happened when Albert died in 1861, Vincent strikes us more as a political enemy precisely because of Brown's comment in ch108.

After all, if our!Ciel, who just managed to thwart their plans of getting the sulin gas, is "more like his father everyday", then it makes sense that Vincent "got in the way" of some of Victoria & JB's war/political plans too. >_>

Now, about the Fenian Cycle book: it was an important symbol for Irish independence and the Fenian Brotherhood that started in the 19th century before it got dissolved in 1880. To quote Wikipedia:

"The Fenian Brotherhood traced their origins back to 1790s, in the rebellion, seeking an end to British rule in Ireland initially for self-government and then the establishment of an Irish Republic. The rebellion was suppressed, but the principles of the United Irishmen were to have a powerful influence on the course of Irish history."

But how would Vincent even get involved with it and why?

In the theory that OC's name is Fenian/Finnian, @azuresins mentioned that maybe it's all related to Cedric K. Ros having Celtic origins. Since we do have one sketch by Yana of one twin bringing the Fenian Cycle book to the Undertaker (the most likely candidate for Cedric K. Ros)...

...it might indeed be a partial answer.

There is another possibility though, entirely thought by @dorkshadows, which is that Rachel (and Ann) might have been of Irish origins too.

After all, a common stereotype for Irish people in many stories is red hair and it's hard to forget that it was a very distinctive characteristic of Ann, Rachel's sister !

In fact, one of their first interactions is Vincent telling Ann to be proud of that hair, which we were told she inherited from her dad, the twins' maternal grandfather.

So Vincent might have not just been talking about Ann's hair color in that scene, but more specifically about her taking more pride in her Irish origins. Obviously though, Dalles/Durless aren't very Irish names, but it is possible that their original family name got anglicized into a more traditionally English name.

In any case, Vincent met Rachel and Ann after already knowing their father :

So it's possible that Vincent was, as the Watchdog, investigating Lord Durless as a nobleman with Irish lineage and possible ally of the Fenian Brotherhood. After all, to quote this article, "the Fenians in England and the British Empire were a major threat to political stability". Then Vincent met and fell in love with Rachel, thus deciding to support the Brotherhood instead.

I'd add that Vincent supporting such a cause simply makes sense, considering that the Phantomhive family, too, might have been burdened by the Watchdog's duty generations ago, because of their "different" lineage (full theory here). On top of that, if you add the possibility that Cedric/UT also was of Celtic origins (many decades or centuries ago) and that Vincent knew Claudia's death was Victoria's fault, it only makes sense that he'd eventually politically antagonize the Queen (both for his parents' sake and for Rachel's).

@dorkshadows also pointed out that, to this day, we don't know if the twins' maternal grandfather is alive or dead in canon : he was important enough to be mentioned in Red's flashback but has been missing from the narrative ever since. Timeline-wise, he could be dead, especially since we never saw him in the Blue Memory arc (our!Ciel's flasback), but we never know with Yana (look at Claudia being hinted in panels ever since the circus arc and probably being incredibly relevant), so it's worth keeping in mind.

Then, moving on to ch132 we know that, when the twins were born, Rachel is the one who named them.

Coincidentally (read: it's probably not a coincidence xD), ch132 had the cover with Vincent reading the Fenian Cycle book to the twins and it's also the chapter in which Vicar Rathbone casually says that one twin/both twins (it's deliberately ambiguous in Japanese) have a name that is "rare for England" :

Many fans, myself included, thought that "Ciel" was the name being discussed there, but maybe they were actually talking about our!Ciel's celtic birth name ! To quote @azuresins, in that case that'd basically mean that, in that scene above, "Vincent said to an ENGLISH PRIEST [...] that people of Celtic origin deserved freedom, and to be treated better and that it probably was soon to come".

No wonder that Vicar Rathbone would immediately change the topic lmao ! xD

Vicar Rathbone be like

It is also very meaningful that Rachel decided to give the "Fionn/Fenian/Finnian" name to our!Ciel ("the spare"), as if to emphasize that he was free to make his own path in life, as the second son, unburdened by earldom. Choosing such a meaningful name might even be a parallel to Vincent's own situation with Frances as his spare, since both also have names with a meaning relating to victory and freedom.

Another important detail, as @azuresins already explained here, is that Fenian Cycle is also a tale of revenge and that our!Ciel parallels Fionn big deal, making it all even more relevant. And maybe Yana left other hints in her artworks too...

Finally, historically the Fenian Brotherhood officially got dissolved around 1880 (the twins were 5 years old), but it's always possible that, in Kuroverse, Vincent managed to make it thrive secretly as the Watchdog. The Fenian Brotherhood caused several incidents, including after 1880 (they assassinated a British Chief Secretary in 1882), so it wouldn't be impossible that the Queen eventually found out that Vincent didn't properly take care of them, because he was supporting them.

And when she found out? Well, she branded Vincent a political enemy and we know the rest (the household was massacred in 1885 and the killer most likely received help from real!Ciel, more details in the real!Ciel mastermind theory hehe).

The idea that Vincent ultimately became a political enemy of Victoria because he fell in love with Rachel makes their death...

...even more emotional to me, since Rachel probably died trying to protect Vincent. T_T

TL;DR that's the Fenian Brotherhood theory: because they supported an Irish rebellious group that wanted freedom, Vincent & Rachel were branded political enemies of Victoria and she & JB plotted their deaths, which led in happenstance to the RCMT.

(friendly reminder that the twins are 7, when Vincent asked Dee to look after them should he die)

I hope it was clear ! Thanks for reading. :))

Red Continent is known as the Continent of Purity - Hallritt lost his purity remembering what he did to the 1st timeline

Blue Continent is known as the Continent of Love - Cielomort sacrificed himself because of his love for the bouquet

So that makes Noir Continent being the Continent of Friendship - Badobarm loses friendship/gets betrayed (points at Hangyon)

#Ciel doesn't fit the “losing what their continent is known for”#but rather it gets emphasized #fragaria memories #fragmem #fragaria memories theory #hallritt #cielomort #badobarm #hangyon

"May the Clock Strike Thrice."

Legends and myths were told upon the clouds above.

Standing still despite the passage of time.

Always staying in the present.

In the present it always stayed.

I'll stay when present comes.

Once the clock strikes you present.

May it strike thrice.

The novelist may revive.

The poet may reconsider.

The knights may remember.

The genius died.

"May the clock strike thrice."

(Third Timeline Theory. Or at least giving emphasis to the number three.)

Sistermon Noir debuted along with her younger sister Sistermon Blanc in Digimon Collectors back in 2012. They later appeared in 2017 in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Hacker's Memory's Chapter 7, as well as being obtainable as partner Digimon.

When the game was localized, Sistermon Noir was changed to Sistermon Ciel, due to her invoking religious imagery being considered a no good for North America.

The European version did not get censored though. Some screenshots for comparison:

[Japanese version | European version (German) | North American version]

in 2018, a year after the North American release of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth: Hacker's Memory, Sistermon Ciel got officially added to the Digimon Reference Book. It was also obtainable through a download code in the Digimon Pendulum Ver. 20th.

While her model in Hacker's Memory was only a recolor with a few very simple model changes, in both her normal and awakened form, she received a redesign with her introduction to the Reference Book. This also changed her weapon of choice from Sistermon Noir's guns to a katana. The Book states that she is the elder twin sister of Sistermon Noir and an assassin at night.

Now, I think there is a conversation to be had about Sistermon Noir's cencorship. Where is the line? Why is Sistermon Noir not okay, but Sistermon Blanc and Sistermon Ciel are alright? Is it just because of the black nun outfit? Isn't the name "Sistermon" and a white nun outfit also invoking relgious imagery?

Also why is this not acceptable for christian imagery, but the monk imagery of Sanzomon is no problem?

Now I am not saying there should be more cencorship. I just think it's somewhat hypocritical. Having grown up in Germany, where this kind of cencorship is not present, and with words like "hell" ("Hölle") or "damn" ("verdammt") being very much present in children's television, seeing Sistermon Noir getting completely wiped from the Western version of the Digimon Card Game is just ridiculous to me. But that is my personal opinion of course.

Now, to the cards. All cards of Sistermon Noir got replaced with Sistermon Ciel in the English release. Name and Type were all changed accordingly, however recent Errata added that each Sistermon Noir is supposed to also be coinsidered as being named Sistermon Ciel and having the type Data, as well as all Sistermon Ciel to also be considered as being named Sistermon Noir and having the type Virus. In BT10 Sistermon Ciel got her first card in the Japanese release, which of course then was kept as is in the English release.

Furthermore, cards that featured Sistermon Noir had her erased.

They did however, miss her in the background of this card:

...seriously, KT, please bring Ciel Nosurge DX/Ar Nosurge DX over.

Spoilers for Black Butler chapter 137

Y'all I am not okay. How could I ever be happy after this. Oh my God it's even worse than I remember. It's so painful listening to him say things like this and the everything that happened afterwards and I just-

O!Ciel.... you're so much stronger than you think.

Man the anime did him so dirty. Making him seem so much more like a brat than he actually is. I'm just so upsetti rn. Because then you remember how old he is and it just gets so much worse.

Man I just need someone to appreciate his character with me because oh my god.
