Romeo × Juliet | comment |
It Was a Dark and Stormy Night when Lord Leontes Van de Montague staged a bloody coup against the rulers of Neo Verona, slaughtering each and every member of House Capulet. Only one survives: Prince Capulet's youngest daughter, two-year-old Juliet Fiammata Ars De Capulet, who was spirited away by the captain of the guard and the few retainers that lived.Fourteen years later, Montague rules over Neo Verona as its tyrannical prince, and the surviving Capulet retainers live in hiding beneath a theater run by a sympathetic playwright named William. To remain hidden from Montague, Juliet has been disguised as a boy her whole life and kept in the dark about her true heritage, until the day she turns sixteen. Nevertheless feeling a strong sense of justice, she sneaks out whenever she can to fight against the oppressive Montague regime as the Red Whirlwind, a Zorro-esque vigilante.As Juliet's sixteenth birthday draws near, she gets into a scrape while acting as the Red Whirlwind and is saved by Romeo Candore Van de Montague, the idealistic son of the prince. The two instantly feel a connection, and can't seem to help crossing paths again and again.Romeo × Juliet is loosely based on William Shakespeare's famous play Romeo and Juliet. The series also draws a bit on other William Shakespeare plays for both character names and plot elements. The cross-dressing and disguises, and a play within the play that matters to the plot.Not to be confused with other adaptations of Romeo and Juliet, especially another one that also uses a mathematical symbol, William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet.The anime is available legally in the U.S. streaming on Funimation's Video Portal. It also has a manga adaptation written by the series' writer Reiko Yoshida and illustrated by Hiroki Harada, which was serialized in the shoujo magazine Monthly Asuka from 2007 to 2009 and is licensed in English by Yen Press.The examples below contain unmarked spoilers for plot points that are carried over from the original play. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag / Fridge Brilliance: It should also be noted that back in Shakespeare's time, the parts of women were usually played by young boys (11-13 years old). And then you have Juliet dressing up as a male and going by the name "Odin"... Virtually every character not from the original play is named after other Shakespearean characters. Even characters who went unnamed in the original play, like Lord and Lady Montague, are given proper names borrowed from Shakespeare's other works. Tybalt outright telling Mercutio that he's not worth killing. In Shakespeare's original play, Tybalt kills Mercutio in cold blood. | |

Remember how awesome that was? Well it never happened. They do end up having a duel ending in a kiss but for different reasons than the trailer implies and in a radically different location | |

2D Visuals, 3D Effects: Unfortunately, despite one of the show's strong points being the beautiful hand-drawn animated fight scenes and characters (to the point that the characters are virtually on-model for all 24 episodes), most of the buildings and furniture stick out like a sore thumb. The biggest offenders are the family flags (done similarly in the Code Geass anime) and the crazed branch-roots of the Escalus tree during the finale. | |

Adaptational Alternate Ending: While Romeo and Juliet still die in the end, it's more of a Heroic Sacrifice than suicide. Romeo is mortally wounded while trying to save Juliet, and Juliet, with Romeo in her arms, sacrifices herself to become the New Escalus, and save Neo-Verona, lowering it slowly into the sea, making it a normal island instead of a floating continent. | |

Sheltered Aristocrat | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_55d33017 | comment |
Sheltered Aristocrat: When the story begins, Romeo is the sympathetic version of this trope, as is his friend Benvolio, albeit with a lesser emphasis on nobility and a greater emphasis on clumsiness. This aspect lessens, particularly in Benvolio, when they get hit with Character Development, and Benvolio adapts to peasant life rather quickly anyway. Hermione also qualifies. The one time she ventures outside the city ends extremely badly for her (her carriage is stolen, she's forced to pawn one of her rings to afford travel, and it gets to the point where her Love Rival takes pity on her and shelters her.) She even refers to a wagon driver as "good rustic." | |

Heroic Sacrifice: Lancelot and Juliet. Romeo too, depending on how you interpret the ending.

Plus Juliet won't be consigned to eternal torment, since she'll instead be spending eternity with Romeo. | |

Protagonist-Centered Morality | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_89434320 | comment |
Protagonist-Centered Morality: Juliet, in spades. Once she meets Romeo, he occupies most of her thoughts, and the suffering of the other citizens of Neo Verona go by the wayside until someone reminds her. It comes to a head where the remaining Capulet retainers are ambushed right after Juliet accepts her destiny, and while Juliet manages to escape, the fate of everyone else is unknown. Romeo shows up soon afterwards and the two run away to the countryside and get married, where they would have happily lived the rest of their lives if Romeo's dad didn't send his army after them. Not once during that whole exchange did Juliet even attempt to find out if the people who raised her actually survived the attack. Somewhat addressed when she asks Leontes to spare the remaining loyalists. | |

Rule of Symbolism: On both occasions that Juliet meets Lord Montague it's in the throne room, and in both cases one is in a position of power over the other (Montague in their first meeting, and Juliet in their second). They even stand in the same spot in both meetings. However unlike Lord Montague (who angrily sentences her to death) Juliet opts to show mercy and exile him instead despite having far more reason to hate him. | |

Ascended Extra: The entire Montague family. Even though the Capulet family is mostly dead here, they're still a significant force in the story as opposed to being a moving prop. The Capulet family gets the focus in the play due to Juliet's arranged marriage, whereas Benvolio is cast aside quickly, and Lady Montague has one line. In this story, Romeo's the one with the Arranged Marriage instead, among other things! | |

Stupid Evil: Both Ophelia and Montague engage in this. In Montague's case allowing Juliet and Romeo to marry would basically neuter the rebellion (since Romeo and any kids they have would inherit her titles and Juliet and any kids could be hostages), yet he tries to have her executed (which just makes people hate him even more). In Ophelia's case Romeo flat out states that he's willing to let Juliet's sacrifice occur for the good of Neo Verona IF he's allowed to die with her. Ophelia refuses and tries to kill him, which ultimately ends with them both killing each other. | |

Action Girl | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: Juliet starts off as this, particularly in her Red Whirlwind persona, but once she falls in love with Romeo, she sadly falls straight into Faux Action Girl who cannot win a battle one-on-one against anyone. | |

Expy | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Aside of Romeo, Juliet, Benvolio, Mercutio and Lord Montague being expies of their Romeo And Juliet selves, Hermione is a genderflipped expy for Count Paris (as well as Romeo's unrequited love Rosaline), and William is an obvious stand-in for Shakespeare himself. | |

Romantic Runner-Up | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_f2fe3a61 | comment |
Romantic Runner-Up: Hermione is a female version of this; while Romeo was polite to her but never particularly interested in her, her only flaw was perhaps being too accepting of Romeo forgetting about meeting her whenever he ran into Juliet, at least until she gets stuck on the wrong end of Break the Cutie... | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Herod | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_f77aa221 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Herod: Montague inadvertently condemns Neo Verona to a slow death by slaughtering House Capulet, whose blood keeps Escalus alive and healthy. And of course he gets increasingly paranoid throughout the series as he learns that there's a Capulet survivor out there somewhere and she's really pissed with him. | |

Romantic False Lead | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_faa71569 | comment |
Romantic False Lead: Hermione, who initially comes off as an unfortunate victim of circumstance, but at some point shows her Yandere side. Unlike others, she does get better; she was more at a breaking point than a true yandere. Subverted, also. We were led to believe Tybalt would be a male one of the Kissing Cousins variety at the beginning, but this doesn't happen. | |

You Killed My Father: As the series nears its end, it becomes a question of whether Juliet, Tybalt, or Romeo will be the one to kill Lord Montague, with the former two having lost family at his hand. It ends up being the fourth candidate, Mercutio. | |

Riches to Rags: Romeo's courting of Juliet eventually pisses his father off enough that he ends up exiled from the city and working in a derelict old mine (though part of that is his own decision; he could've easily just supervised the mine without having to lift a finger, but chose to take part in the actual mining as well. | |

Pet the Dog | |
Romeo × Juliet / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Anti-Hero Tybalt doesn't get a moment like this until his final scene: he takes Petruccio's younger siblings for a ride on a dragonhorse in the epilogue. Awwww. Arguably, hugging Juliet during her Heroic BSoD after the Shoot the Dog incident would count as well. Montague of all people gets this when he decides not to arrest Portia despite clearly realizing that she was sheltering Juliet. | |
