Early in the twentieth century, a young Japanese teacher named Hanako journeys to England in pursuit of two dreams: to meet Victor Franks — a reclusive writer and her personal idol — and to become a novelist in her own right. It soon becomes apparent that neither of these aspirations look like they have any chance of coming true, but fortune smiles upon her in the form of the noblewoman Alice Douglas. Alice offers Hanako employment as her personal maid, and the two soon form a surprisingly friendly relationship. When Hanako tells Alice that she would give anything to obtain her wish to meet Franks, Alice reveals that she can introduce her to him — but only under one condition.Hanako must kill Alice.As Hanako tries to understand why Alice would make such a request of her, she learns more about her past... and little by little, the two women grow closer.Goodbye, My Rose Garden (Sayonara Rose Garden) is a Period Piece yuri romance manga by Dr. Pepperco. The series began in 2018 as serialized in MAGxiv for Mag Garden, and the third and final volume was published in February 2020.Seven Seas Entertainment released the official English translation.

Flower Motifs
 Goodbye, My Rose Garden (Manga) / int_40cad744
comment
Flower Motifs: Roses are, of course, everywhere in this manga, and many rose-centric metaphors and similes pop up, usually in a melancholy context. Alice compares herself to a rose infected with black spot, Hanako muses on how Alice's distant smile was like a rose shrinking from her touch, and Edward uses a metaphor about roses casting darker shadows when bathed in brighter light to sow doubt in Alice's heart about Hanako. In particular, Alice's rose garden is both a place where she can escape from the world and a reminder of how she must constantly hide her true self deep within her. Her saying "goodbye" to her rose garden at the end of the series symbolizes her deciding to live as her true self, no matter the difficulty. Incidentally, the Douglas family manor is named Rosebarrow House, and Hanako's name translates to something like "flower child."

Bittersweet Ending: More on the sweet side, but with some bitter aftertaste. Alice does not die and says no to marrying Edward. She openly declares that the rumors about her are true and she is in love with Hanako. While Hanako and Alice travel together as a couple, it is implied Alice will not be able to return home, and her family's reputation will be damaged for her coming out.

Gayngst: Several years ago Alice fell in love with her governess, and while the relationship never evolved beyond that of teacher and pupil her parents realized what Alice's feelings for Eliza truly were. They sent Eliza away but unfortunately, the word still managed to spread and it soon became well-known in the rumor mill that Alice preferred the company of other women. This all also happened in the shadow of the (real life) scandal of Oscar Wilde, so Alice fully came to realize how Victorian society looked at same-sex attraction. The knowledge that her sexuality will not only have her bear the ire of society, but also affect her family and their reputation, is what drives her to the despair of asking Hanako to become her accomplice and kill her.

Crazy Jealous Guy: Edward plays with this trope. He quickly becomes suspicious of Hanako's closeness with Alice, but at the same time, at least professes that he's willing to accept Alice's decision if she refuses to marry him. It's unclear whether his opposition to Alice's relationship with Hanako is because of jealousy or because he doesn't want Alice to make a decision she'll regret.

Better Partner Assertion: Edward does this to Hanako in their second and final confrontation, claiming that marrying him will be more socially acceptable and better for her family's honor than running away with Hanako, even if Alice doesn't love him.

Armor-Piercing Question: Edward gets two in on Hanako during the confrontation in the garden. His first is when Hanako tries to assert that she needs to be there for Alice. His second comes at the start of a "The Reason You Suck" Speech insisting that only he can give Alice happiness and that Hanako is a "black spot" that must be removed.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Hanako gives Edward a brief one in Volume 1 after he tries to bribe her to leave Alice. Edward apologizes and backs down but insists that Alice will marry him. Edward gives Hanako one in Volume 3, before giving her an ultimatum- Hanako must leave forever, or else he will reveal the truth about her and Alice.

Vague Age: Hanako is a young adult who looks like she's 17, Alice and Edward are old enough to marry(and thus most likely in their early twenties), Alice's younger sisters Margaret and Mary are young children, Jane is an older teenager or young adult, Eliza is probably 10-15 years older than Alice, and Mrs. Smith seems to be in her late middle age at youngest. However, none of the characters' ages are explicitly stated.

Establishing Character Moment: The flashback in Chapter 1 shows that Hanako has been visiting the Johnson Brothers publishing company for a month, demanding to speak with her favorite author Mr. Banks and getting annoyed when she's told that she should instead get married. This shows that she's a Plucky Girl who isn't deterred by social norms.

The Tragic Rose
 Goodbye, My Rose Garden (Manga) / int_83ab1b39
comment
The Tragic Rose: Alice explains to Hanako how her titular rose garden is a sanctuary for her as a place where she doesn't have to think about society's expectations, but that simultaneously highlights how Alice is constantly forced to hide her true self. Other rose-centric metaphors and similes frequently pop up throughout the story, particularly the one of black spot, a fungus that frequently affects roses. Because her sexuality could not only ruin her own reputation but that of her beloved family, Alice compares herself to an infected rose: something that must be "excised from the garden" before it ruins the other roses. At the very end of the story, Alice's Title Drop signifies her not only leaving Rosebarrow House to travel with Hanako, but also her decision to stop suppressing herself and live as she wants with the woman she loves no matter the difficulty.

Ambiguously Evil: Edward. He's not as kind to his servants as Alice is to hers, but considering that Alice is practically considered a saint for her kindness toward her staff, that doesn't say much about him. He's outwardly polite to Hanako, but often tries to separate her from Hanako, with his threats becoming less subtle as the story goes on. He is willing to allow Alice to decline his marriage proposal, but the proposal drives Alice further into despair, since she feels as though she can't refuse. As such, Hanako often has trouble knowing what to think about him.

Plucky Girl: Hanako may be an easily flustered bookworm, but she's notably strong-willed and determined, speaking out against any injustice she witnesses or experiences. This is even more impressive when you take into account that she's a young foreign woman in Victorian Britain. It's this unshakable will that Alice witnesses at the publishing house that causes her to hire her.

Stay in the Kitchen: Edward wholeheartedly believes that Alice will only be happy when she becomes his wife and bears children, even if she doesn't actually love him, because in that time period, gender roles were very strict, and women were expected to be little more than subservient "domestic angels" who looked after the house.

Mood Whiplash: Late in the series, Hanako asks Victor(or rather, Alice) whether one scene in the latter's books, in which the protagonist breaks free of her mansion to save the one she loves from a murder charge, was based on herself and Ms. Eliza. Victor denies it, saying the main character "is who I wish I was." It's a heartfelt moment that turns comedic when Victor adds, "Also, Ms. Eliza never murdered anyone," prompting Hanako to sheepishly reply, "Yes, of course." The tone turns serious again when Victor tells Hanako how much she admires Hanako for coming halfway around the world to meet her, then turns comedic again when Victor is about to spoil the ending, only for Hanako to protest that she's still reading it.

Deliberate Values Dissonance
 Goodbye, My Rose Garden (Manga) / int_aabe2fb
comment
Deliberate Values Dissonance:The story features Victorian attitudes toward homosexuality and women's rights. Hanako, who doesn't share either of those values, comes off as an Audience Surrogate when she's surprised and upset to hear of how things work in Britain. In the first flashback scene, Hanako was barred from even being able to hand in a manuscript because she was a woman. During the Victorian era, homosexuality was not only looked down upon but considered illegal. Alice's reputation is damaged simply by rumors of her orientation. Alice writes her book Gloriana under the pen name Victor Franks, because during that time, women often faced prejudice for wanting to write fictional stories.

Shown Their Work: Dr. Pepperco did a lot of research on Victorian-era England for this manga, from the clothes the characters wear to the social norms that characters in Alice's position were expected to follow. The series even references actual writers of the earliest LGBT+ works, such as Kate Chopin and Sarah Orne Jewett, with the latter's story Martha's Lady even being used as a point of reference for Hanako and Alice's relationship.

Death Seeker: The fact Alice wants Hanako to kill her helps kickstart the plot.
