The story is focusing on the classic romance between Romeo and Juliet, and mixes in fantasy elements.
Juliet starts out as a vigilante-type character who opposes the oppressive rulers, the Montague family, and is in the beinning really cool and driven, who eventually finds out she is the last Capulet - the former rulers of the nation.
Romeo is the heir of the Montague family and is a compassionate, kind young man who wants to grow up to do the best for the people.
Now, this sets up a very cool scenario about freedom-fighting and forbidden love, and it really works - in the beginning.
When the characters inevitably fall for each other it feels like they just don't care about the fight for the people anymore and the plot feels a lot flatter after about the halfway mark...
And I won't spoil anything, but what the heck was up with that ending? It just felt very rushed and forced.
I would reccomend this anime if you're just looking for a romantic anime, and not much else.
But if you came to this anime because you heard it was a cool romantic story about classisism, family feuds, freedom fighting and an interesting, unique twist on a classic story you should maybe not waste your time on this.
