Grell Takes the Lead (Black Butler)
Actually, These Are the Real Top 10 Anime Betrayals
Grell was originally introduced as nothing but Angelina Dalles’ butler, who was a Phantomhive aristocrat. While they might not have seemed like much, the two were actually behind the various Jack the Ripper attacks. Moreover, Angelina actually had a completely different persona as Madam Red, while Grella was actually a Grim Reaper and collector of souls. The two shared a rather interesting and symbiotic relationship because of their roles.
Unfortunately for them, Ciel and Sebastian discovered their little games and decided to put a stop to their violence. Both parties clashed with each other, with Madam Red eventually gaining the upper hand. She couldn’t bring herself to kill Ciel, however, because of the motherly love she felt for him. Grell then decided to take matters into her own hands and kill Madam Red instead as she saw little use for her. That said, Grell’s actions easily landed her a spot as one of the most popular anime betrayals.
