**************************************

Romeo and Juliet, the greatest love story there ever was...bull shit. It was about two stupid teenagers who didn't listen to their parents and ended up dead because of it. Romeo met her once at a party and was ready to go against his family, kingdom and leave his crown for this girl. And what about poor Rosaline? I bet many of you are like who? Rosaline was the girl Romeo was set to marry before Juliet came along. Rosaline must have felt pretty bad about herself, Romeo in short chose death over her.

Anyway the anime...

I would recommend this anime with complete confidence that the viewer will enjoy some aspect of the series. Some people might be turned off by the ending of the series as it takes a very “anime-ish” turn, but that in itself is not enough to negate the quality of the entire series as a whole. This is a must watch for Anime fans.

I give it a 4 out of 5.
