begins with an extremely low point, from which everything will flow downhill until the very end. We are launched into the which contributed strongly to the already bad feelings both the people and the nobility had for the Royal Family.



Jean Valois, her husband Nicholas de la Motte and Cardinal Rohan are all real people involved in the affair, as were theprostitute Nicole Lequay d'Oliva and forger R taux de Villette. Jean did have a sister, but her name was not Rosalie. And, while rumors were supposedly to have been circulated of lesbianism between the Queen and her favorites, those were later, some even after the revolution began. She was accused of the double crime of lesbianism, in fact, with a notorious British lesbian - as if the French ones might not have been good enough. But, then, she was also accused of sleeping with every man in France, including her own sons. . But this anime works very hard to make sure we find her sympathetic, Rohan is a letch, Jean and Nichiolas are sociopaths, Marie just wants time with her family, she's not a bad person, just tone-deaf to well, everything.

The Weekly Backlog

As the fall anime season wraps up, I've felt myself feeling more and more disconnected and wishing that I hadn't skipped out on the entire season. It certainly means that I'll be following shows next season (in part due to this disconnection, but more so because I'm pretty excited about several series this winter) but now I'm try to see just how much of the fall season I can sneak in before the end of the year-while at the same time hacking away at my manga backlog. It's a good thing I am fortunate enough to have a full-time job with excellent time off benefits. I've got nearly 2 weeks in front of me with no plans in sight.

12 Days: #10 The Leijiverse and becoming an oldfag

I first waded into the Leijiverse last year with the short anime Ozuma (which I disliked very much) and the film Arcadia of My Youth. This year, especially with Yamato 2199, I encouraged myself to delve into these vast and daunting sub-universes even further.



Of all of the big franchises and meta-series, I think the Leijiverse was the most intimidating. It took me a while to learn what characters were linked to others and which series were completely separate from others. (Captain Harlock, Queen Emeraldas, Galaxy Express 999 and Maetel Legend are all connected. Yamato is its own thing.) Naturally I didn't watch everything in the optimal order, but the pieces were certainly not difficult to put together.
