"On the Night of Passionate Vows"

(synopsis courtesy of Wikipedia)

o_O, did Oscar & Andre share a passionate kiss or more? First they're kissing, then they're naked, then they're lying on the ground and we see lights & sparkles.... When you see those kinds of special effects I guess its official.

Well besides that it looks like the revolution is on. There are mobs going around pillaging and plundering and god knows what else. Speaking of the mobs, weren't Oscar and Andre roaming the woods trying to avoid them? That takes some balls to get it on in enemy territory.

Hooray, André got with Oscar, now hopefully André can keep site and Oscar won't die.

Otherwise, yeah everyone in the show is an idiot.

"At this time they became married"

I see, getting "married" right then and there in the woods, what a dirty bunch :P

But I'm really happy to see it finally happen. Of course death and blindness need to threaten them to be true to themselves. How typical ^^.
I probably regret this post by now.

Has anyone noticed that the French Tricolore is always wrong? they drew the flag red-white-blue instead of the correct blue-white-red. how hard can it be to check???

BUT FINALLY THANK GOD SHE DIDN'T DIE BEFORE SHE GOT TO DO THAT


I'm sad it's ending soon I'll probably give this series one of my rarely given 10s the only really flaw is the slightly tacky effects but it's from the 70's so I forgive it

This episode was a massive tearjerker, but the ending where she finally said the words, "I love you, too. With all my heart" took away much of the pain. That's how it should have been from the start, but then we wouldn't have been able to experience their epic journey to this point.

The greatest episode of all times. I loved to see all the tenderness Oscar is now showing for Andre. When she asks him to go home with her, when Andre is trying to look at her portrait but doesn't see a darn thing! She's so patient. Making love in the woods for an anime!!! Man, I was positively surprised. It is the best scene ever. Andre: "I love everything about you for the rest of my life"... "I've known for so many years. No, even before I was born"

awww yisss. i knew it. the title gave it away.
and i am assuming that it's both their first time? and it's with each other, that's perfect. i just hope that andre could see her while they were doing it haha.
we waited 37 episodes but they waited 37 years. they are probably both going to die, but at least they are together.

Beautiful to see André and Oscar finally be together after all they've been through...but it tears me up knowing André is practically blind and Oscar is going to die of tuberculosis unless it gets cured by some miracle (kinda hope on this)

It's wonderful to see that Andre and Oscar are finally together after such a long period of time. It's honestly heartbreaking seeing the both of them suffer even though they're trying to stay strong. Even though I do hope they can get through this, I know it's probably going to be the end for the both of them very soon.

They are finally together now!! So many emotions this episode, and the animation has been so great. All the different colors and the stop scenes are just so aesthetically pleasing. I know what's going to come but I'm still not ready...

Well, they waited until one was blind the other half dead and the world around them being on fire, but it finally happened. I wonder how this will end? I've been very careful not to spoil myself.

I've come to the realization that there's no way Yoshiki Tanaka was not inspired by Rose of Versailles in making Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Reinhardt mirrors Oscar in so many way.

The scene of Andre getting asked to see Oscar  at the barracks was sad but meanwhile the one when he was describing the portrait was sad too I just couldn't stop cringing, I couldn't bear more of Andre pretending to no be going blind.

This show likes making having sex in the woods look so sparkly~☆

On the other hand, la revolution!

This is my first post here and my intention was to keep it after I had completed the series and saying my overall thoughts in the end - but I can't hold it anymore. This episode deserves it, in the end. :)

It epitomized everything that made this series feel like old red wine: vintage and special at the same time. It's also among the few episodes in anime that made me tear up - and I've seen a lot, both modern and old. In a way, it felt like Andre's painting: capturing the essence of fleeting beauty, love and joy, before it gets swept away.

I'm not sure I'm ready for the final three episodes, I too would be gratified if it ended here and we got a "happy ending" - but, I'll just have to go on until the end. You can't change history and I guess the same goes for this series... :)
