    In General 
  • Animal Motifs:
    • The animal of the Red dorm is a fox, which represents a majestic and subtle cunning.
    • The symbol for the Blue dorm is an owl, which represents wisdom and knowledge.
    • The animal of the Violet dorm is a wolf since all members of the Violet dorm are seen as weird and eccentric outcasts.
    • The symbol of the Green dorm is a lion, which seems to represent strength and victory as all members of the Green dorm are excellent athletes.
  • Flower Motifs: Each dorm is represented by a flower. Red roses for Scarlet Fox, blue gentian for Sapphire Owl, purple dahlia for Violet Wolf, and leaves of the holly tree for Green Lion.
  • Last-Name Basis: One of the school rules is that students must only be called by their surname.
  • One-Gender School: Weston College is a male-exclusive academy.

P4

    In General 
  • Absurdly Powerful Student Council: The P4 are the representatives of the students' houses, and hold the highest authority after the principal and vice-principal.
  • Appeal to Tradition: Their top priority is preserving the noble traditions of Weston College. They were willing to commit multiple murder for it.
  • Boy Band: After they're expelled from Weston, they're next seen working as singers and dancers at the Sphere Music Hall.
  • Broken Pedestal: Their fags are horrified when the prefects they looked up to confess to having committed multiple murder to stop the bully Derrick from becoming a prefect. Hearing the truth robs them of the satisfaction of enjoying the same privileges their predecessors once had.
  • Colourful Theme Naming: Their last names (Redmond, Bluewer, Violet and Greenhill) refer to the representative colors of their respective dorms.
  • Custom Uniform: The prefects are the only students allowed to wear color-coded waistcoats.
  • Deal with the Devil: They make a contract with Undertaker to resurrect the murdered students and Vice-Principal to cover up Greenhill's crimes and protect the school. In return, Undertaker gets to fool around as its Principal.
  • Fate Worse than Death: The four prefects are expelled for being behind the murder of Derrick Arden. Considering their loyalty to Weston, this is a big deal.
  • I Did What I Had to Do: They try to justify their murder of Derrick, the vice-principal, and Derrick's fellow bullies as something they had to do to protect the good traditions and honor of Weston College. Even so, the Earl thinks they went too far.
  • Sympathetic Murderer: Redmond, Bluewer, and Violet cooperated in Greenhill's murder of the student Derrick Arden, the vice-principal, and all the witnesses because they discovered Derrick was a vile bully whose academic accomplishments were all stolen from better students and the vice-principal let him get away with it due to Derrick bribing him. Since none of the prefects wanted the honor and tradition of the academy to be stained, they murdered the two assholes. Considering everything, the prefects come off as the more sympathetic party in the crime.
  • True Companions: All of the P4 is revealed to be this, to the point of covering up multiple murders. If one of them goes down, they all go down together.
  • Unwitting Pawn: They have no idea that their job as a Boy Band at Sphere Music Hall was part of a plan to extract blood from as many people in London as possible to sustain Undertaker's advanced Bizarre Dolls.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: The prefects were willing to do anything, including multiple-murder, to protect the school and its honor.

    Edgar Redmond 

Edgar Redmond

Voiced by: Toshiki Watanabe (Japanese), Reagan Murdock (English)

Live actor: Hiroki Sana (Musical)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/edgar_redmond.png

Prefect of the Scarlet Fox Dorm.


  • The Casanova: He seems to be very popular with the ladies, including a few of Bluewer's sisters. He also mentions that he does not want a fixed partner, implying his play-boy ways.
  • Disappointed in You: His reaction to Maurice Cole's Engineered Public Confession.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: He's blond, and he's quite nice. However, it's subverted with the reveal that he participated in a multiple murder.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: And he's aware of it. "I'm ashamed of my inability to judge people."
    • He evidently didn't think too much about how Maurice Cole could have possibly done the work that he did in so little time, and with such soft hands.
    • And before him, there was Derrick Arden, essentially another Maurice Cole with that Bitch in Sheep's Clothing act cranked up, who doesn't stop at stealing other students' works but also traumatizes them with bullying.
  • It Runs in the Family: Ciel has seen those gold locks, gold eyelashes and Ambiguously Bi Casanova act somewhere. It all makes sense when Redmond is revealed to be Viscount Druitt's nephew.
  • Long-Haired Pretty Boy: He's a beautiful man with long blond hair falling over his shoulder.
  • Nice Guy: The friendliest of the prefects.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Inverted. While he does have red eyes, it's only to identify himself as a member of the Scarlet Fox dorm, and he's the nicest guy in the school.
  • Sherlock Scan: No one but him noticed that the poem was written in blue ink in some parts, thereby enabling him alone to break the code.
  • Smarter Than You Look: Aside from noticing the parts written in blue ink, he was intelligent enough to decode a hidden message written inside a poem.
  • Something about a Rose: He's often depicted holding a red rose that is his house's symbol.
  • Taking the Heat: He offers to do this so Greenhill can be protected from going to jail for multiple murder after killing Derrick Arden, the Vice-Principal, and several other students.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lawrence_bluewer.png

Prefect of the Sapphire Owl Dorm.


  • Affectionate Gesture to the Head: He rewards Ciel with a headpat after the latter puts himself on the line to expose Maurice as a vicious bully.
  • Blue Means Smart One: Bluewer is the prefect of the Blue House, known for housing Weston College's most academically gifted students. He has grey-blue hair and wears a blue waistcoat with his school uniform. His strength lies in making minute calculations and creating detailed schemes.
  • Determined Defeatist: Sapphire Owl had lost so many cricket tournaments in the past that Bluewer became convinced that studying is all he and his students are good at. Thanks to Ciel, though, he decided to take another shot at winning anyway.
  • Do Not Call Me "Paul": He dislikes being called by his first name, Lawrence, because it's against the rules. Since it's not an official rule though, the others, especially Redmond, do it anyway.
  • Hiding Behind Your Bangs: His bangs often hide his right eye and he's the most serious of the P4. His hairstyle also foreshadows concealing intentions since he and the other P4 committed multiple murder and are trying to cover up their crime.
  • Nerds Are Virgins: When Redmond jokes about the number of women that hang around Bluewer, Bluewer reveals that his "women" are actually his seven sisters, and he is the only man in the family. Almost everyone is mortified to hear this.
  • Principles Zealot: Out of the P4, he follows the rules more closely and faithfully.
  • Resentful Outnumbered Sibling: He has seven sisters and doesn't look happy when they visit the academy for the cricket tournament.
  • Scary Shiny Glasses: Bluewer gets these a couple of times in the manga, most notably when he makes an astounding bowl against Greenhill in the cricket match, and later when he and the other prefects confess to murdering Derrick Arden to protect the integrity of their school when they discovered that he was bulling other students and using their talents to make himself appear perfect- and the vice principal was not only aware, but allowing it.
  • The Smart Guy: He's the most intelligent and studious of the P4.
  • Smart People Wear Glasses: He's the only prefect who wears glasses and his dorm is Sapphire Owl, which is considered the House of Intelligence.
  • Sugar-and-Ice Personality: He's serious, composed and collected, yet he can smile and praise other students when they demonstrate they have the righteous spirit fit for Weston College. He also looks very happy when Ciel manages to make the team of Sapphire Owl come out first place in the cricket tournament.

Voiced by: Tatsumaru Tachibana (Japanese), Kieran Flitton (English)

Live actor: Dai Goto (Musical)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gregory_violet.png

Prefect of Violet Wolf Dorm.


  • Bizarre Taste in Food: He mixes a drink composed of several random cocktails.
  • Characterizing Sitting Pose: He usually sits with both of his feet on the chair, highlighting his weird behavior.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: He's a very weird guy. There's a reason he's the prefect of the dorm known for housing the school's eccentrics.
  • Cuckoosnarker: He's the weirdest among the P4, yet shows a snarky streak when it comes to his fellow prefects' own quirks.
  • Dark Is Evil: Aside from a very sinister appearance and liberally using satanic imagery in a manga where demons are very real, all the missing students were last seen in the Violet Fox Dorm. However, the "evil" part is very downplayed because while did to participate in a multiple murder and its cover up, the victims were all assholes involved in cruel bullying and cheating. Gregory is far from evil otherwise.
  • Distressed Dude: During the Blue Cult arc, on multiple levels. The readers first find him being drained of all his blood by a desperate Bravat, on the edge of death. Then we learn he's been aware of Bravat's actions all along, but for some reason unable to directly act against him- the only way he could fight back was by inviting his friends in the hopes that one of them would contact Ciel.
  • Drink-Based Characterization: Gregory mixes a dozen random cocktails together and drinks them all. Says a lot about the guy.
  • Eccentric Artist: During the cricket tournament, he drew the house crest of the Violet Fox dorm on the entire playing field.
  • Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: He has black hair and ghostly pale skin, making him stand out as the most suspicious-looking of the prefects and head of the dorm known for housing eccentrics.
  • Goth: He's an Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette who wears a Black Cloak, puts on black make-up, and is one big oddball with very reclusive behavior.
  • Guyliner: He wears black eye shadow.
  • He's Dead, Jim: After Greenhill clubs Derrick in the head, Violet puts a hand over the boy's mouth and notices that he's not breathing.
  • Hypocrite: He calls Ciel "weird" for working like a butler despite his Earl status, while he makes a drink by mixing several cocktails and blowing bubbles into it.
  • In the Hood: He often wears his coat's hood over his head, making him look mysterious and reclusive.
  • Mysterious Purple: He's the most strange, mysterious and enigmatic of the P4. He's also the prefect of the Purple House.
  • Nightmare Fetishist: In one instance, he draws a creepy drawing of Ciel about to be attacked by the Jabberwocky.
  • The Quiet One: He's the least talkative of the P4.
  • Reclusive Artist: In-universe example. He'd rather draw and paint than socialize, and dislikes his job as a prefect because it prevents him from focusing on his art.
  • Troll: He demands that Greenhill strike a very complicated pose, then proceeds to make multiple drawings that have nothing to do with Greenhill or his pose. When Greenhill finally loses patience and relaxes, Gregory throws a bread roll at him and complains that his "masterpiece" is ruined, even though he never planned to use Greenhill as a model and just had him make a ridiculous pose for his own amusement.

    Herman Greenhill 

Herman Greenhill

Voiced by: Shunsuke Takeuchi (Japanese), Jonah Scott (English)

Live actor: Shogo Tazuru (Musical)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/herman_greenhill.png

Prefect of the Green Lion Dorm.


  • Batter Up!: Greenhill used a cricket bat to kill Derrick Arden to protect Weston High's traditions from being sullied, along with the Vice-Principal for ignoring Derrick's behavior. He also murdered Derrick's friends to remove any witnesses this way.
  • Berserker Tears: While murdering Derrick Arden, he starts shedding tears out of sheer rage.
  • Big Damn Heroes: With Edward in chapter 71. Dude beats up four Mooks holding Ciel without harming so much as a hair on the kid.
  • The Big Guy: He's the strongest, most athletic, and physically the largest of the P4.
  • Bully Hunter: The only times he gets violent is when stopping bullying. It's taken to a dark extreme with later reveals. When the P4 found out Derrick was a bully and had bribed the vice-principal to escape punishment, Greenhill killed Derrick and all his accomplices.
  • Carry a Big Stick: He's often seen carrying around a cricket bat on his shoulder. Turns out he used it to murder Derrick Arden, the Vice-Principal, and several other students to protect Weston High.
  • Distracted by the Sexy: While playing cricket, he's more distracted by Lau's scantily-clad women (displaying their bare legs, the Victorian equivalent of naked breasts) then any other player.
  • Improvised Weapon: Greenhill's cricket bat, which he used to commit multiple murder in order to protect Weston High.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Derrick, one of his murder victims, bites him on his right arm causing injuries. He probably can't do sports anymore.
  • Leave No Witnesses: Herman clubbed Derrick Arden to death in a rage for dishonoring Weston High's tradition and also murdered Vice-Principal Agares for being in league with Arden. He also murdered Derrick's friends to remove any witnesses to the crime.
  • Lovable Jock: He's one of the best sportsman in the school, but that does not make him a jerk and he's just as devoted to the school as all the other prefects. It's played with because of the reveal that he's a murderer, but he still manages to be fairly sympathetic.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: He was the most horrified when he realized he lost himself to his rage and killed Derrick, several other students, and the Vice-Principal.
  • Serious Business: Almost everything he does.
  • Shaming the Mob: During the cricket tournament, the crowd accuses Ciel and the Sapphire Owl dorm of poor sportsmanship. Greenhill rightly calls them out on their bullshit and defends Ciel's actions on the basis that aiming for someone's face requires a lot of practice and the use of such underhanded tactics is a sign that Bluewer and his students are very serious about winning the cricket tournament this year.
  • Unstoppable Rage: After learning that Derrick was a sadistic bully who bribed the Vice-Principal and realizing that his becoming a prefect would ruin Weston High's reputation, Greenhill simply snaps and proceeds to murder both Derrick and the Vice-Principal in cold blood. When he calms down, however, he realizes the gravity of what he just did and freaks out.
  • You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry!: Derrick Arden and Vice-Principal Agares learned it the hard way.

Scarlet Fox Dorm

    In General 
  • The Beautiful Elite: The students of the Scarlet Fox dorm are renowned for their Blue Blood and beauty.
  • The Proud Elite: The particular characteristic of the Scarlet Fox students is that they are of exceptionally high birth or gentility. Thus, only those with enough status and wealth can be admitted into the Scarlet Fox house.

Live actor: Tsukasa Taguchi (Musical)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mauricecole_2249.png

Redmond's fag. He's a manipulative, sneaky, and incredibly vain man that enjoys bullying others. He tricked Ciel, whom he saw a rival for Redmond's attention, and received punishment for his bullying and cheating after Ciel was able to find evidence of it.


  • Alpha Bitch: A rare male example. He's considered the most beautiful boy in the academy and is popular for being the perfect fag to Redmond, but he's a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing who sabotages any student who attracts the positive attention of the P4 and bribes others into doing his fag duties for him. When Ciel exposes his lies, Maurice tries to keep him quiet by attempting to take humiliating pictures of him, but Ciel anticipated this and had the P4 hear their entire conversation.
  • Ambiguously Gay: He was really happy when Redmond offered to let him sleep in his room after Soma trashed the bedrooms, and he is obviously disappointed when Soma prevents it. When Ciel uses Lau's girls to distract Green Lion, Cole's reaction is to complain that he can't understand why the other students are "going gaga" for them. While biting a handkerchief.
  • Beauty Is Bad: He's known as the most beautiful and handsome student in Weston High. He's also a manipulative, power-hungry bully.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He keeps a nice/dependable front around the prefects, but is actually an Alpha Bitch.
  • Break the Haughty: After his true nature is exposed to the prefects, Redmond fires him, thus ending his prestige at school. Then, as one last nail in the coffin, Ciel spreads around pictures of his true face.
  • Broken Pedestal: The P4, especially Redmond, are highly disillusioned in him after Ciel exposes him as a fraud and petty bully.
  • Chain of Deals: He got his many followers by getting multiple students to do all of his fag duties in his place.
  • Consummate Liar: Ciel points out how Maurice lies as easily as breathing.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: He is really jealous when Redmond shows interest in other people.
  • Effeminate Voice: He has a high-pitched voice to match his effeminate looks.
  • Engineered Public Confession: Ciel sets a trap so the P4 hear his confrontation with Maurice where he pushes the latter into revealing his true colors via a variation of Tin-Can Telephone.
  • Evil Chancellor: To Redmond. Though less The Starscream and more of the backstab-any-potential-rival kind.
  • Evil Is Petty: Goes after fellow students solely if he feels they are getting to close to the P4 for his liking.
  • Freudian Excuse: He can't inherit his father's title, and so is grabbing for power in whatever sphere he can reach.
  • Gonk: Without his makeup on, he has beady, sunken eyes, and heavy lips that make him look somewhat like an ape.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Most of his lies and schemes are to keep Redmond's attention on only him by ruining the reputation of any student Redmond might take a liking to.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: He told Ciel that he considers him a winner already, being a firstborn, and thus has no idea what it feels like to be like Cole: the youngest child who would never be able to inherit a title. Later, we find out Ciel does know.
  • Hate Sink: He's a petty and lying Bitch in Sheep's Clothing who sets up other students to look bad in front of P4 so he can be the perfect fag in the eyes of the prefects.
  • Makeup Is Evil: Turns out he's as good with makeup as he is at manipulating his classmates.
  • Regal Ringlets: Male example. His hair is styled into golden ringlets and he's part of the house for beautiful, upper-class students.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Beautiful!: His reasoning for being a cheating, manipulative bully.
  • Stealing the Credit: Cole is revealed to be a fraud who stole credit for all the work he's done. Ciel and Sebastian know right away something is wrong when they notice how unblemished his hands are while all the other fags have rough, callused hands with chipped nails from doing their work.
  • Ugly All Along: He's first introduced as the most beautiful boy in Weston, and enjoys massive popularity due to his cherubic charms. However, Soma discovers that Maurice's good looks come from make-up. Without it, he's a Gonk with an ape-like face.

  • Because You Were Nice to Me: He states he's willing to help Sebastian because the latter helped prove his innocence.
  • Bring My Brown Pants: He wet his pants while escaping the Bizarre Dolls at the midnight tea party.
  • Butt-Monkey: Something bad happens to him about every time he appears. In his first appearance, he's been a victim of Maurice Cole's trickery, and is therefore a social pariah. When Cole is exposed, Harcourt becomes Redmond's new fag and all starts to get better... but it doesn't last. In the cricket game, he's grossly humiliated because of Ciel's trick. Later, he discovers that the prefects killed several students and the Vice Principal, meets face to face with the Bizarre Dolls, is almost killed by them, and then has to become a Secret-Keeper. The poor guy can't catch a break.
  • Effeminate Voice: Joanne looks like a girl and his voice sounds extremely feminine, even being voiced by a woman in the English dub.

  • Potty Emergency: Joanne had quite the troubles to leave the cricket field after eating a meat pie filled with super strong laxatives.
  • Pretty Boy: He's so pretty with that feminine face and big eyes that anyone would think he's a girl at first glance. These looks help him get into the Funtom Five Boy Band.
  • Prone to Tears: He easily bursts into tears when reminded of the pitiful state he is in due to the misunderstanding of other students.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Inverted. Like Redmond, the eyes are only to show that he's a part of the Scarlet Fox dorm. He happens to be a very kind person.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ch83_derrick_arden.png

The son of Queen Victoria's cousin and a fifth-year student at Weston College.


  • Alpha Bitch: He was basically The Ace of Weston High and the favorite of the prefects, but in reality he was a cruel bully who stole other students' works to make himself look good. So when the P4 found out, he managed to bribe the Vice-Principal and get a lighter punishment. However, once he makes a remark he would become the next member of the P4, this prompts Greenhill to kill him to protect the traditions of the school.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He made himself look like a well-behaved and likable student in front of the P4, but the truth was he was a cheating bully even worse than Maurice.
  • Broken Ace: Derrick was a bright and talented student; he was the captain of his cricket team, a master embroider, always got high marks, and wrote beautiful poetry. He was well-loved by the students, teachers, and the P4. However, that was just an act to make himself look good and get rid of his family's pressure. He's really a horrible bully who forces other students to do the work for him.
  • Broken Pedestal: Edgar was absolutely devastated to find that his fag Derrick was bullying several students and stealing their work to maintain his popularity with the school.
  • The Bully: An even worse one than Maurice Cole. He tormented other students, almost to the point of torture, to forced them to do his schoolwork for him.
  • Dead All Along: Derrick Arden was killed by the P4. He's been resurrected, albeit imperfectly.
  • Dies Wide Open: After being clubbed in the head by Greenhill, he died with his eyes open.
  • Hate Sink: Like Maurice, Derrick is a devious Bitch in Sheep's Clothing who fooled the P4 into seeing him as a model student, only for them to discover he was just a bully who forced his victims into letting him take the credit for their academic accomplishments. He's so despicable that the P4 end up coming off as the sympathetic party after they murder him.
  • Karmic Death: He and his friends bullied many other students to steal their work and make himself shine before the P4. He showed no signs of remorse when the P4 found out about this, since he'd bought off the Vice-Principal, and was finally murdered by Greenhill. Even though the P4 was expelled for their crimes, no one shed a tear for Derrick's death.
  • Man Bites Man: He bites Greenhill in the arm shortly after appearing as a Bizarre Doll raised by Undertaker.
  • Missing Child: His disappearance is what sets off the Weston High arc where Ciel is asked by the queen to find out the whereabouts of Derrick and other students who have suddenly stopped sending letters to their families and haven't returned home for about a year.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: Raised by Undertaker. He came back as a Bizarre Doll.
  • Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: He has a distant family relation to the Queen, and this makes him think that he's entitled to commit despicable acts as he pleases in school. This eventually got him killed by Greenhill after a sly remark he would be a prefect in the next school year.
  • Stealing the Credit: Like Maurice Cole after him, he stole his "talents" to maintain this reputation, along with bullying the other students and bribing the Vice-Principal to overlook their behavior for four years. When Greenhill realized that his becoming prefect would allow Derrick to abuse that power, sullying the school's reputation, he murdered him.

Johann Agares

Voiced by: Show Hayami (Japanese), Andrew Webb (English)

Live actor: Fuuto Uchino (Musical)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ch83_johann_agares.png

The vice headmaster of Weston College.


  • The Alcoholic: Implied. Derrick Arden bribed him with a whiskey bottle.
  • Dead All Along: Johann Agares was killed by the P4. He's been resurrected, albeit imperfectly.
  • Karmic Death: He continuously took bribes from Derrick and in return he overlooked his horrendous behavior for four years. When the P4 caught Derrick and his friends bullying other students, Agares instead only punishes Derrick and his friends for being out late at night rather than the abusive way Derrick and his friends acted. After one sly remark from Derrick boasting to be the next P4 member, worried about the tradition and safety of the school unchecked if this continues, Greenhill snaps and murdered Derrick while the rest of the P4 restrain him and Derrick's friends, locking the room, to be killed by Greenhill.
  • The Klutz: Never fails to fall off a staircase. This is in fact foreshadowing to the reveal that he's a Bizarre Doll that's still imperfect and that's why he doesn't have good control over his body.
  • Made of Iron: He shrugs off falling down a staircase.
  • Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Agares is the name of a demon from the Ars Goetia.
  • No One Could Survive That!: He falls down a staircase several times and always gets up completely unharmed. Justified because he was already dead to begin with.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: Undertaker's experiments have created a new type. These zombies can function as people, provided that they have enough "episodes" (their own projections of their futures). Agares had enough episodes to function as a normal human being, at least for awhile.
  • Sadist Teacher: Implied. He was hidden in the classroom where Derrick Arden was torturing two guys, even though he didn't have any motive to be there. Perhaps he was enjoying the show since he was bribed with the booze that Derrick 'confiscated' from the students.
