A glooming peace this morning with it brings.
The sun for sorrow will not show his head.
Go hence and have more talk of these sad things.
Some shall be pardoned, and some punished.
For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo
Just discovered a awesome anime series. It's an adaptation of 'Romeo and Juliet', the tragic love story of Shakespeare. I'm a major anime lover.
I clicked on some random link of the anime series sort of by accident. I started to watch and I truly loved it.
For the ones that stand their grounds as protectors of the original story. Put down your principals because this is truly a masterpiece.
A young girl, Juliet, is the only member of her family to escape the massacre of the Capulet family at the hands of Leontes Montague. Fourteen years later, Lord Montague rules the land of Neo-Verona with an iron-fist as Juliet helps the common folk in a Robin Hood-like fashion, and Romeo Montague protests his father's cruelty. Juliet and Romeo meet by coincidence at the Rose Ball and fall in love at first sight. However, when Juliet turns sixteen and learns the truth of her past that has been hidden from her for fourteen years, her love becomes conflicted between revolution and devotion.
Romeo and Juliet face many challenges and adventures together which strengthen their love. Juliet resumes her role as The Red Whirlwind to start a revolution against Prince Montague. Meanwhile, Romeo has been banished and sent to work in a mine. He frees the criminal miners and begins to start a new village with them. He then returns to Neo Verona to face off Prince Montague.
Tybalt, Juliet accompanied by Francisco, Curio, and the rest of her force, and Romeo storm Prince Montague's chambers. They all wish to arrest him.
Juliet: O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name,
or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, and I'll no longer be a Capulet.
Romeo: Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
Juliet: 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy,
thou art thyself though not a Montague.
What is Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot, nor arm,
nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man.
Oh, what's in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet;
so Romeo would, were he not Romeo called,
retain that dear perfection to which he owes without that title.
Romeo, doff thy name!
And for thy name, which is no part of thee, take all myself.
I shall no more speak the anime explains itslef. Just Gorgeous.
