I think the Undertaker is his Grandfather which means Ciel is part Grim Reaper
That would be sick, and also an interesting route since it would also mean Sebastian probably wouldn't be able to take Ciels soul. I wonder if Sebastian would be able to sense it though?
Am I the only one who thinks Undertaker may be FakeCiel (I'm calling him Estelle<--- I am 99% convinced that this is his true name, but obviously I could be wrong) and Ciel's grandfather??????? The more I reread the manga the more it seems likely.
If anyone would like to know why I think so, here are my main points:
1.) We all know this one but--One of his precious lockets belong to Claudia P. The grandmother.
2.) He has been in service to the Phantomhives for generations.
3.) He is highly interested in humans and their lives, and has no interest in his shinigami work. I can defiantly see that interest evolving into a sort of "love" if he met the right person.
4.) This chapter: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/kuroshitsuji/an/kuroshitsuji/103/pg-5/ - reveals that Estelle (FakeCiel) can "sense" shinigami, and one of the two present shinigamis comment that it might be due to his lineage.
5.) The manga does reveal the name of their real grandpa, but we can not confirm that the name does not belong to Undertaker since he has not revealed his name yet, which is odd considering that we know every other shinigami's name (why keep it secret?)
6.) He cares deeply for the Phantomehives as shown when he cries for Vincent P. http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/kuroshitsuji/an/v20/c105/pg-24/
7.) His primary goal is to bring back the dead. But why? True, he did give a flimsy reason such as "I just want to know what is beyond the end." BUT It would make sense that if he was the grandpa he would want to resurrect his dead family. He was also never out right hostel towards Estelle, he always ensured that Sebastian would be able to save him.
Has anyone thought this???? Is this theory old???? xD
