Black Butler 15th Anniversary Orchestra Concert

The Black Butler 15th Anniversary Orchestra Concert was a two-day event held in Marunouchi, Tokyo, in February 2022. The Friday and Saturday evening shows began at 7:00 pm, while the Saturday matinee began at 12:00 pm; each concert lasted two and a half hours. Sebastian Michaelis voice actor Daisuke Ono served as the MC. It featured a full orchestra playing several pieces from the Black Butler anime soundtracks, opening and ending themes, and original compositions for story arcs not yet animated. Tickets were available from December 2, 2021, through the Square Enix e-store, and a limited number of tickets included a music box, available for pickup the day of the event, that plays Monochrome Kiss when wound up. Other goods were available in-person and online. Each day of the event, the lobby shop opened an hour and fifteen minutes prior to the concert starting. During the 20-minute intermission and at the conclusion of the concert, the Bitter Rabbit and Butler Rabbit mascots came out on stage.
