Beautiful and Sorrowful adaptation to a Shakespeare Classic. The characters, plot and universe was thoughtfully planned out and animated. As someone who struggled with connecting to the old English and character in the original, this adaptation made the bravery and struggles of the characters much easier to empathize with. I fell in love with the people and my heart broke when the inevitable end came. However I did not feel unsatisfied but bittersweet.
I would recommend it to both Shapearean fans and non-fans. You'll laugh and cry your heart out but it'll be worth it.
A fascinating take on the ancient story.

Amazing anime! It rewrites Shakespeare's history but in such a way that it is marvelous.
In my opinion, the story itself is very well written: there are no fillers nor unnecessary complications to the plot. The story line is clear and very enjoyable. There are a lot of heart warming moments, some comedy parts and quite a lot on the feels department. As far as I know, there were no plot holes or unexplained events, which is quite nice for a fantasy anime.
In my opinion it is definitely worth watching: 9/10.

I personally loved how healthy and mature Romeo and Juliet's relationship was portraited. The feels!
