In the new adaptation, Daisuke Ono and Maaya Sakamoto will return to voice their respective characters—the demon butler Sebastian Michaelis and the British noble Ciel Phantomhive.

The project will be directed by Kenjirō Okada at CloverWorks. Hiroyuki Yoshino, a scriptwriter and supervisor for previous episodes of "Black Butler," will oversee the series' structure. Character design will be handled by Yumi Shimizu, an episode animation director and key animator for the original 2008 "Black Butler" anime. Ryo Kawasaki has been tasked with composing the music.
