This is a story of a young and tragic love, set in the aerial city of Neo Verona. Tyranny rules this island in the sky after the Montague family took control 14 years prior.

Both Romeo and Juliet's lineages are of present and past ruling families of Neo Verona. Romeo is the son of the current Montague dictator, Juliet (a beautiful woman) masquerades as a man (Odin), she's the last descendent of Capulet the previous rulers who were killed by an assasin's dagger 14 years ago. Her true background is not to be revealed to her until her 16th birthday. The cruel hands of fate introduces 2 people who will become "Star Crossed Lovers". |

I loved the adaption of this classic Shakespeare play. I think it an imaginative adaption of a classic piece of English literature. THe characters have been reinvented and the setting (obviously, but i mean the social-political background) has been changed. But the classic story of a doomed romance, haunted by the clash between two noble families has remained.
But just a note for my fellow reviewers. Romeo and Juliet is not a story. Its a play. Shakespeare did not write romance stories, and Romeo and Juliet is not meant to be one. It is a tragedy. ( read more)

But just a note for my fellow reviewers. Romeo and Juliet is not a story. Its a play. Shakespeare did not write romance stories, and Romeo and Juliet is not meant to be one. It is a tragedy. Its a story of two young people, whose own faults, and the failures of there feuding families, leads to the death of the young couple. I weep for the death of English education in English speaking countries.
But as i said before. Watch and enjoy this interesting anime. ( show less)

I loved this adaptation, it was original and well thought out. The story is about the same star- crossed lovers, but the setting and the roles of the characters have changed, in a good way. It's very emotional especially towards the end, but it's also very action packed. The animation stands out at times, and the dialogue is simple but effective. There's lots of development story wise and character wise- so it's a great watch and definitely recommended.

practically everyone known the story of romeo and Juliet, it;s a really romantic story but with a sad ending still you'll love it, for those who don't know the story of romeo and Juliet is originally made from someone called Shakespeare know if i wrote it wrong or right_ this man was specialized in writing romantic novel and he was really good at it, anyway, the story that the original writer wrote was good still this anime is even better, if you haven't yet heard the original story i really recommend it to you to see the anime yet even if you've ( read more)

SPOILER(for those who haven't heard the original story/and maybe even for those who have heard it):
in the original story both romeo and Juliet die and it doesn't change in this anime, they still die...
*i hope you liked my review, this anime is definitely worth the watch, the soundtracks are amazing and so is the opening theme_probably everyone has heard it_ and so is the ending theme, so anyway you have to watch for those you really like romantic amines i totally recommend this anime to them... :) have fun :) ( show less)

I like this take on Romeo and Juliet. It has the tendency to be mushy, overly sentimental and annoying, but on the whole it's a refreshing spin-off of the classic story. I like the little twists like the fact that Juliet is a masked avenger and that there is a whole political conflict rather than just a family feud. I also really liked what they did with the character of William. He is insane. There are many little original twists and I definitely recommend this to anyone who like Shakespeare and to girls in particular if you like more than just ( read more)

There are a lot of complex and symbolic elements in here that are worth the 26 episodes. ( show less)
