I do kind of blame the fandom. The manga still hasn't gotten as awful, but when the anime came around, the fandom exploded. EVERYTHING was about the fanservice from then on. She gave them every single thing they wanted, instead of at least trying to stick to mysteries and arcs. Because of this we got Kuroshitsuji 2, which is probably the most shallow, empty thing to come out of this fandom. "WATCH SEBAS-CHAN FIGHT ANOTEHR SEXY BUTLER AND EVERYONE WANTS CIEL BUT ALOIS JUST WANTS LOVE TOO."

If you like it, to each their own of course. But it's hard not to get 'Hipster-y' about Kuroshitsuji when, its quality really did decline once it grew in popularity.

To each their own is right. "Decline in quality" is always going to be subjective, and if you were reading it as something that was supposed to be a mystery series I can see where you'd be disappointed with where it went.

FWIW, though, some of us never thought it was supposed to be a mystery series. If you read it as a dark comedy, which it was practically from the very beginning, it's stayed true to form. (Yes, it has murders and demons and Jack the Ripper and such, but that doesn't make it not a comedy. Look at Grell and the Undertaker and even the first appearance of Aunt Frances: if it's not a comedy, what are they even doing there?) And comedies tend to have at least a little sexual innuendo in them: always have had, since Aristophanes and very likely since the Fall.

(Hipster, you say? We can play that game too. With or without having to call in Lau for a little not-in-the-rules help.)
