Hmmmm. . . . Perhaps there's a way to limit the overall power of the Black Butler artifact? Although if it's older than the manga, then it's a matter of finding an origin that better suits it (since at that point it wouldn't technically be fandom-related). Or adjust the effects to something similar that can be the basis for the series (assuming a change in origin).

As far as Scalec's point, what if the artifact takes the stereotypical view of the reader as the basis for the appearance? And perhaps making it so that it doesn't activate in the person's home country? The purpose of having it activate in a different country aside from the reader's own is so that, assuming they don't have a default opinion to go on, they have a chance to observe the people of the other country and form their opinions of them.
