<big><font color="purple">EDIT: I decided that the Phantomhive Times News Channel: Forum Broadcast Edition (I just made up that title <i>on the spot</i>) will be updated <i>
monthly</i>!</font><big> </big></big>
</p>
<hr><p><big><big>For the first time ever, our news channel <big><i>
Phantomhive Times</i></big> is not just going to be
on this page or summarized
in this box - it's going <i>live</i>, with <i>weekly</i> updates via forums that will be highlighted for all to easily navigate to! With this, we can give more details and comments on what's been going on on this wiki and in the <i>Kuroshitsuji</i> series!---- </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>Ok, I lied about a couple of things. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>First, it's not live. It just sounded cool and appealing so I said that it was. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>Second, it's most likely not going to be updated weekly. Our schedules are all volatile - I know mine is. Some days my work shifts are too long and I am wiped out by the time I'm home. So you can say that this will be updated
weekly-ish, maybe bi-weekly-ish, or somewhere around each month-ish but not really. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>But aside from that,
Phantomhive Times is now part of the forums! We're hoping to do fun little segments each time, but right now the ideas in my head: zero. :D It's our first time doing this so we haven't exactly outlined all the aspects of it, but we'll get there. And when we do get to wherever "there" is, I'll be sure to deck this out with bright colors and fancy templates and other fun stuff. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>For
Phantomhive Times, we're going to break it down to two main components:
News on the Series and
News on the Wiki. Let's get started! </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>
For this week, your reporter is me, Lau! </big></big>
</p>
<nav id="toc" class="toc" data-loaded="false"><div id="toctitle"><h2>Contents</h2><span class="toctoggle">[
show]</span></div>
</nav><h2><span class="mw-headline" id="News_on_the_Series"><big><big>News on the Series</big></big></span></h2>
<p><big><big>For the month of
October, we got Chapter 109, which marks the beginning of the
Blue Cult Arc! Follow
this link to read the summary. Read my review on the chapter
here (and give me shillings!) </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>On
October 19, it was announced that Yen Press will be translating the latest chapters of <i>Kuroshitsuji</i> as it is being released in Japan! That means that we'll instantly get the official English translations for the newest chapters, for a small payment of $1.99. Support Toboso-sama! You are welcome to discuss the news
here. More information is available on the Yen Press site
here. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>On
October 11, we learned that <i>Kuroshitsuji</i> will be getting an
anime film. Details on the film is not yet disclosed, but what we do know is that the voice actors for Ciel and Sebastian will reprise their roles. Feel free to discuss your thoughts on the news
here! </big></big>
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="News_on_the_Wiki"><big><big>News on the Wiki</big></big></span></h2>
<p><big><big>We have plans to rename all chapter pages so that the titles match Yen Press's. That means all "That Butler" will be replaced with "The Butler" and the word(s) following the "That/The Butler" will be changed. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>To be better organized, we will also delete all Anime's Synopses sections from the characters' pages and move the information to the will-be-created-soon pages for the anime arcs for Seasons 1 and 2, then link from there. All twelve episodes of Season 2 will be referred to as the
Trancy Arc. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>On
November 15, we released the <i>
Manga Mission: The Introduction (Interactive Game)</i> to the general public to play! Navigate to
this thread for more information.
Start playing now! </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>As of
October 14, the
Best of 2015 Awards voting period has begun. Cast your votes
here! </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>On
August 28, we <i>discontinued</i> the Featured Article of the Month and replaced it with a Did You Know? section. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>On
August 13, we disabled anonymous editing. You must make a Wikia account in order to contribute to this wiki, but <i>it's worth it</i>. </big></big>
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Spotlight"><big><big>Spotlight</big></big></span></h2>
<p><big><big>
Spotlight is a brand-new segment we're trying out as part of
Phantomhive Times. For this segment, we'll be putting the spotlight on well-written pages. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>
The spotlight article is Grim Reaper. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>
The spotlight character is Sieglinde Sullivan. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>Note: We will be adding more about this in the future. </big></big>
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Emperor.2FEmpress"><big><big>Emperor/Empress</big></big></span></h2>
<p><big><big>I haven't decided on an official name for this yet buuuut out of the three of us,
Doggy,
Tsumi, and
the most brilliant person on Earth, one will be the Emperor/Empress for the
week-ish, maybe bi-week-ish, or somewhere around each month-ish but not really. That means they get all the attention and will be receiving a number of questions that they have to answer (feel free to post your questions for them down below!). </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>A (boring) example of questions that can be asked is <i>Do you have a pet?</i> Remember that they have the right not to answer questions that are too personal like <i>What kind of underwear do you wear?</i> </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>
If you guys want a shot at becoming an Emperor/Empress, please say so! </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>But anyway for now we three are the only options. We want you guys to get to know us a little better. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>I've come up with five questions the chosen Emperor/Empress will have to answer. </big></big>
</p>
- <big><big><i>How old are you?</i> </big></big>
- <big><big><i>What is your ethnic background?</i> </big></big>
- <big><big><i>Do you have a job? If yes, what kind of job?</i> </big></big>
- <big><big><i>What is your favorite article on this wiki?</i> </big></big>
- <big><big><i>What is your absolute favorite character in the Kuroshitsuji series?</i> </big></big>
<p><big><big>The Emperor/Empress is allowed to plead the fifth to just
one question. The rest they must answer. </big></big>
</p><p><big><big>With that being said, it's time to select which one of us three will be the Emperor/Empress!!! The person with the most votes will win, obviously. </big></big>
