Synopsis

1887, at a remote, elite boarding school in France: Serge Battour returns after his graduation, and remembers the days of his youth...

1880, at the same school: Son of a viscount and a Roma prostitute (both deceased), Serge is intelligent, sweet, talented, and alienated by his family due to his heritage. Upon being sent to his new school, he rooms with Gilbert Cocteau, a gorgeous loner of a boy who sells his body for reasons unknown. Serge's attempts to reach out to Gilbert fail spectacularly, and yet there is something in both of them that attracts them to each other.

I thought this to be a beautiful yaoi in my own personal opinion. I was completely engrossed with the character Gilbert and I would love to read the manga if I could find it. The story was very interesting - hence my wanting to read the manga - and I love the time period it's set in. I've read plenty of novels set during the same time though usually in other parts of the world. Certain aspects remind me of a few of those novels in particular. It is a bit melodramatic but if you can watch a soap opera without screaming in agony you read more

Traduzido como “A Canção do Vento e das Árvores”, é um típico anime “shonen-ai” (relação entre rapazes), levado às telas em 1989 e cuja história se baseia em um clássico escrito por Takemiya Keiko. Retrata de forma dramática e trágica a vida de um jovem que teve seu coração partido e, por esta razão, está quase enlouquecendo.

Na cidade de Provence, França do século XIX, o anime conta em “flashback” a história de Serge Batouille, agora quase adulto, retornando à sua antiga escola. Ele é filho único de um nobre casado com uma cigana mas que, devido aos infortúnios da guerra, acabou morrendo jovem e deixando-os read more

Recommendations

Both are about a kind of homosexual realtionships, and both are set in somewhere in Europe, in the XIX century, or similar.... In general, the aesthetics is similar.
While the main theme of these two series is considerably different they both take place in Pre-Industrial France and cover their respective time periods with some historical accuracy. In both there is the theme of social injustice and the scars it leaves on people. There is plenty of drama in these series and the artwork invokes an old school ambience that is very similar. Furthermore, both deal with forbidden loves; Rose of Versailles deals with class differences while Song deals with the growing romantic attachment between two boys. These are bittersweet anime through and through. RoV focuses both on political aspects as well as individual conflicts with plenty of history, and Song deals almost exclusively with the tortuous relationship between the two main characters in a very slow paced and poignant manner.
