This is a story not for the weak hearted, because as I read this it felt as if my heart was being stabbed again and again.
There are many conflicting things in this story, and knowing the tale of the war between cousins, Lancaster and York, I am not ensured of a happy ending. However, I still have hope that this story will end beautifully and with a twist at the end.
If you like somewhat tragic fantasy tales where when all seems lost, the protagonists are still able to overcome it (such as Code Geass, Kuroshitsuji, etc.) then this may be a story for you.
What I
...
loved so much about Baraou no Souretsu was how sad it felt to read it. I still have some hope that the ending is not as I think it would be, for this is only based off the story of York and Lancaster, but not the same tale.
The story of Aya Kanno's version of Richard III has really touched my heart, it's beautifully sad and it's very interesting to see figures of history be interpreted differently through her perspective and creativity.
p.s. so far Margaret Beaufort (Henry Tudor's mother & Stanley's wife) wasn't adapted in here which is kinda sad since to me she was the most interesting figure in the wars of the roses imo but oh well
