Innocent is a historical drama seinen manga created by Shinichi Sakamoto, the author behind the acclaimed Kokou no Hito.In 18th century France, during the last days of the french monarchy in the reign of Louis XVI, the Sanson family, appointed as the royal executioners by the king himself, are struggling with the reluctance of the eldest son, Charles-Henri Sanson, to succeed his father. The story centers around Charles' struggle as a kind, sensitive young man, as he faces his harsh fate as the "Monsieur de Paris", and is changed radically in the process. Over time, the series also begins to focus on his sister, the cold, morbid and rebellious Marie Joseph as she struggles to navigate the patriarchal society of the time to become an executioner herself, and her eventual entanglement with Marie Antoinette.The series was originally serialized in Young Jump from 2013 to 2015, and compiled into nine volumes. A sequel series continuing the story, Innocent Rouge began serialization shortly afterwards in Grand Jump and ended on February 19, 2020, through the publication of Rouge's final volume. A musical adaptation of the series, called "Innocent musicale", ran from November 29th to December 10th of 2019.Not to be confused with the British drama, or the Turkish detective miniseries, or the Harry Potter fanfiction, of the same name. | |

| Innocent (Manga) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: Marie has to perform sexual favors for an official in order to secure her position as Prevote De L'Hotel. He is eventually branded as a criminal, and Marie relishes her execution of him a bit too much, forcing her father to step in. Marie Jeanne was also raped by a hairdresser she was apprenticed to. | |

"Well Done, Son" Guy: Charles' uncle, Nicolas, is driven by his desire to be acknowledged by his mother, as he was the second-born and thusly did not receive as much attention, due to Anne Marthe focusing most of her attention on Baptiste. | |

Conditioned to Accept Horror | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_1b465242 | comment |
Conditioned to Accept Horror: The Sanson sons are all trained from a young age to bear all the nasty sights, smells, and sounds that come with executing the guilty. Before they reach double-digits, they are in the basement dissecting cadavers as a form of hands-on experience. The story does not stop at the visceral, either: Charles's story also deals primarily in his struggle to accept the hypocritical, callous, and bloodthirsty nature of French society. By the end of the first series, he has fully accepted his role. Implied with Andre, as a flashback shows that he's been working for the Sansons ever since he was a young boy. Ever since Zero was a baby, they easily accepted the gore and violence growing up. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_1d18887f | comment |
Pay Evil unto Evil: Marie does this to De Luxe, manipulating things so that his pardon is overturned and then pulling strings so she’ll be the one to kill him. Given that De Luxe murdered children though, no one really complains. This is Marie's default response to any man who attempts to harm her or other women, especially those guilty of sexual assault and rape. She takes great satisfaction in making their executions as painful and bloody as possible. | |

Generation Xerox | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_25bc8511 | comment |
Generation Xerox: Charles Henri eventually becomes much like his father, fully accepting and confident of his role as the patriarch of the Sanson family. His own oldest son (who is even named after him) starts out similarly to him, hating the family burden that being a Sanson puts on his person, but gains a newfound respect for his father and his uncle when they save a young mother's life and even buy a foreign anesthesic to spare her pain, accepting his role as the future Monsieur de Paris. Even when it turns out that the girl will be executed the next week, the boy stands strong, refusing to prolong the girl's suffering and actually acts a weight to guarantee the execution is finished, stating that he will be by her side until the end. Even Charles' brother states that the boy has inherited his kind heart. Charles-Henri's youngest son, Gabriel, starts out like this with his fear of blood and his uneasiness of executions. However, he doesn't grow out of this as he falls to his death from the platform. | |

Engineered Public Confession: How Marie makes sure De Luxe is punished for his crimes. On his way to a dinner party in his honor she drugs him with a powerful hallucinogenic and then pushes him into the room where the King is waiting. When the hallucinogenic causes him to see his victims he ends up ranting about his REAL motivations for killing Alain and confirming that he murdered the children (complete with an Evil Laugh) in front of the King, the crown prince, Marie Antoinette and countless others. The King promptly rescinds his decision to spare De Luxe and orders him executed. | |

Character Development: Charles goes from a meek, sensitive and fragile young man to a much more assertive, confident and masculine individual as he matures into his role as the head of the Sanson family. Marie Antoinette, thanks to Marie's influence, also grows from a meek girl who feels powerless to a strong young woman determined to become the most powerful woman in the king's court, even if it means incurring the spite of the king's favorite concubine, the Madame du Barry (formerly Marie Jeanne Bécu). | |

Flower Motifs | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_40cad744 | comment |
Flower Motifs: Roses are mostly used to represent a character. For example, Charles-Henri is represented by a white rose, representing innocence and purity. Marie Antoinette is represented by pink roses, symbolizing grace and elegance as a dauphine, then queen. Marie-Joseph is sometimes represented with red roses, and black roses at one point. Red roses symbolize passion and deep emotions, such as Marie's desire to break away from the patriarchal system of France, while black roses symbolize death. The rose that is most commonly used with Marie is the blue rose, which represents mystery, and new opportunities. In Innocent Rouge, Pierre, is represented by violets by Gabriel Sanson. He even refers to Pierre as "my violet" before throwing himself from the platform, while holding Pierre's decapitated head. | |

Bittersweet Ending: While a majority of the characters will eventually die, have died before their actual date, or their fates are left unknown, the Innocent series ends with a summary of the downfall of the aristocracy with the eventual abdication of Napoleon III in 1832, and the abolishing of executions in France in 1981. While Marie and Charles were unable to achieve their dreams when they were alive, their dreams were realized centuries after their deaths. Marie appearing as a ghost also helps Charles come to terms with his failures and forgive himself. | |

When he hears his parents being...."busy", Charles snuffs out the candles he held, and opens the door a crack at the mention of his mother asking Jean-Baptiste if Charles would be considered his successor. Knowing that Charles is watching, Jean-Baptiste doesn't stop until the...."deed" is completed, saying that Charles is too weak to be an executioner, and that children are nothing but puppets, and more children can be made if need be. | |

Painting the Medium | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_5009999d | comment |
Painting the Medium: Shinichi does this to great effect, such as having some of the pages "stained" with blood. One distinguished example is in chapter 63 of Rouge: after Louis XVI is executed, characters start to overlap panels, and by the end of the chapter where people rush to get some of Louis' blood, panels and speech bubbles start to become distorted. This trope is also done with more disturbing effects: when the Cardinal de Rohan starts fantasizing about Antoinette, two pages are "stained". | |

Cosmic Motifs | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_74e4a889 | comment |
Cosmic Motifs: Shooting star motifs become far more common in Rouge to represent change for the coming era. However, this motif can be seen all the way back in Innocent with with title of chapter 45: "A Comet Appears". In the Innocent musicale, Marie's Character Song, "Innocent Rouge", includes lyrics about shooting stars and a "meteore rouge" - which is what Marie becomes by the end of the series . | |

Put on a Bus | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: After being a prominent figure in the story for a few volumes, Anne Marthe marries a servant in the manor and moves away, following an incident where Marie scarred her face, making her lose most of her vigor. Close to the end of Innocent Rouge, Marie-Joseph is smuggled off to England in a casket to escape being executed. Although she reappears by the end of that chapter, alive and well, it's revealed in the final chapter (chapter 88) that that wasn't Marie at all, but Grosholtz/Marie Tussaud posing as Marie-Joseph, with the intent of taking down Robespierre and end his reign. | |

Politically Correct History | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_7e74d66f | comment |
Politically Correct History: In Innocent Rouge, there’s a flashback showing Théroigne de Mericourt declaring that women deserve to be involved in the political sphere, followed by a two-page spread of her getting stripped naked. In real life, Mericourt was attacked and stripped by a group of women because she was allied with the Girondins, and the women were allies of the Jacobins. The manga decides to revise this event by having Mericourt be stripped and mocked by an entire group of men instead, solely because they don’t want women to have rights. | |

Arranged Marriage: This goes without saying with Marie Antoinette and Louis-Auguste's marriage.

After losing in a duel, Marie agrees to marry Gaspard, though this turns out to be a ruse. | |

Creepy Doll: Marie possessed one when she was little, which appears like any other 18th century doll. The creepiness comes in when Marie, after witnessing Charles being punished by their father with the brodqeuin, starts copying it on the doll. The doll's next appearance in Rouge shows it having a "bandage" across its face, nails driven into its body, and one arm already on the cusp of breaking off. | |

Etienne, a lawyer who was hired by Louis Philippe to persuade the audience of nobles to fear Charles-Henri, is Impaled with Extreme Prejudice and decapitated by Philippe, and then has his bloody head placed on a plate full of flowers.

Men Act, Women Are: Understandable given the culture of the time, and it becomes even more stifling the higher one's social class, but Marie-Joseph becoming an executioner in place of her uncle is the story's most dramatic subversion of this trope.

Him supporting the ideals of the French Revolution by validating Marie's dream when she was younger and trying to open up a school for poor children are other factors. | |

Blood from the Mouth: Marguerite Jouenne, a woman who would eventually become the first lady of the Sansons, suddenly began vomiting/coughing up blood, beginning from when her first son was born, up until her death. In chapter 38 of Innocent Rouge, there's a page of Marie wiping away some blood from her lips while it's snowing out. Whether this is just because of chapped lips or the symptoms of the unspecified illness that she revealed to Charles in the final chapter of Rouge, is speculation at this point. | |

Informed Ability: Marie's friend and second for her duel, the chevalier D'Eon, is a diplomat and spy for the king's secret service, much like in real life. While we see her swordsmanship by effortlessly cutting through a leaf, her skills against fighting another person aren't shown. | |

Musical World Hypotheses | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_ce515b47 | comment |
Musical World Hypotheses: The "musical numbers" that are peppered throughout Innocent and Rouge are "the all in your head" hypothesis. The theatrical, almost whimsical, gestures and "lyrics" performed by certain characters exist to enhance a character's mindset. They can even verge Disney Acid Sequence. | |

| Innocent (Manga) / int_ce6487aa | comment |
Misery Builds Character: Losing his friend due to the spite of a noble, and his father losing faith in him to the point that he tries to impregnate his wife with another heir, is what eventually motivates Charles to grow a spine and accept his fate as executioner. | |

Glove Slap | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_d19343fc | comment |
Glove Slap: A simultaneous one occurs between Marie-Joseph and Charles-Henri to symbolically formalize their plans to duel each other after the latter confronts the former over her unseemly influence over Marie Antoinette. He acts to prevent her from jeopardizing the honor of the Sanson family and as a favor to Madame du Barry, while Marie does so because she does not wish to have her freedom jeopardized by any man, especially her elder brother. | |

Delinquent Hair: Marie has part of her hair cut off to symbolize her giving up being a woman in the pursuit of the Sanson family trade, and as symbol of her rebellion against the rigid gender roles of her society. | |

Social Climber | |
| Innocent (Manga) / int_de80e030 | comment |
Social Climber: Given how vulnerable women were during this era in French society, many female characters in the cities display shades of this, primarily by way of seducing powerful men. Marie Jeanne Bécu climbs her way to the top, going from a humble nun to Louis XV's favorite mistress, by using her wits and talent for pleasing men. Jeanne de Valois-Saint-Remy, born of a direct descendant of an illegitimate son of King Henry II, later to be known as Comtesse de la Motte, rose from the slums of Paris to be a member of King Louis XVI's court by marrying Nicholas de la Motte. Rose Bertin also deserves a mention, as she's one of the few female characters who uses her skills as a seamstress to become the official dressmaker of Marie Antoinette. | |

Pimped-Out Dress: Marie Antoinette is seldom seen out of one, and basically any other women in the nobility are guaranteed to be dressed in one as well, as one might expect. | |

Censor Shadow: The series just barely tries Barbie Doll Anatomy, as it's frequent with demonstrating corpses, Gratuitous Rape and Wardrobe Malfunction. The breasts are unaffected, but genitals are white'ed out. | |

| Innocent (Manga) / int_ef20d7bc | comment |
A Minor Kidroduction: The very first chapter of Innocent starts out with a little girl, Marie-Joseph, walking through the halls of the mansion until she comes across a room in one hallway. Curious, little Marie takes a footstool to peek through the keyhole and sees the brodequin. She's seeing through the Sansons' torture chamber. | |

Female Misogynist: Charles' grandmother, Anne Marthe, initially portrayed as a resourceful, confident Iron Lady, is eventually revealed to also be this when she gets furious at Marie for climbing up on the execution platform to aid Charles, saying that men and women aren't equal and that she should know her place. | |

| Innocent (Manga) / int_f5c3defd | comment |
Cosmic Deadline: While it's subjective to each reader at when this pacing problem began to be apparent, it's clear that by the latter half of Rouge, important events occur every other chapter,rather than the slow build up in the prequel. By the time the story reaches its conclusion, everything after the downfall of Robespierre is summarized, and Marie is revealed to have died several years earlier than the recorded death date that was presented since the very first chapter of Innocent. | |
