** Sebastian and Ciel, ''the main characters'', are also both notoriously [[BaseBreakingCharacter divisive,]] particularly for those who are reading the manga and have gone through now 200 chapters and counting of little to no character development [[labelnote:Explanation]]Sebastian and Ciel were shown to develop into who they are now through flashback chapters, but as far as moving forward in the story they have changed little from when they were introduced nor have they come close to the SeriesGoal of getting revenge on those behind the attack on the Phantomhives.

** Back in the day, many fans, particularly those who were big on yaoi and pairings, treated Grell as though she were a cisgender male, although this is possibly more due to the fact that Grell's status as a trans woman is not properly mentioned or even really alluded to in-story, especially in the official English translation/dub, and only confirmed by WordOfGod via [[AllThereInTheManual extra sources]]. Said WordOfGod became more widely recognized and accepted over time with the rise of trans acceptance, but this persists with some fans due to the ValuesDissonance of having her voiced by a cisgender man in both Japanese and English.

*** Sebastian's character itself isn't clear in the first place. His worst traits are that his morality is [[BlueAndOrangeMorality alien]] or [[AboveGoodAndEvil nonexistent]], that he [[CantArgueWithElves thinks most humans are shallow and weak]], and that he likes to ([[CombatAestheticist artfully]]) KickTheDog during his fights. On the flipside, he ''does'' express admiration for HeroicWillpower and [[IntriguedByHumanity finds humanity entertaining]], openly admitting that [[EvenEvilHasStandards demons' malice simply can't]] [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters measure up to humans']]. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Oh, and he likes kinky boots and cats]]. And while he is affirmatively after Ciel's soul and is ''not'' [[DracoInLeatherPants the dashing Bad Boy hero]], his place on the evil spectrum and whether he sees Ciel as anything besides a marinating roast is anyone's guess.
