Requiem of the Rose King Volume 3

Product Information

requiem of the rose king: featuring that awkward moment when you discover you're in a love triangle with your father and patricide is the only option) The other thing that gave me pause while reading this: In real life, Richard III married Anne Neville. Anne is a character in the manga and is most likely a prospective love interest for Richard. However, clearly, this manga is setting up a possible romance with King Henry as well. IRL Henry is like 30 years older than Richard. I don’t know how old Henry is supposed to be in this manga. Because everyone looks young and pretty. But like… … … hmmmm. Sketchy? I’m wondering if these two romances are just plot devices to further complicate Richard’s dysphoric feelings. My guess is that in the next few volumes Richard’d gender and sexuality will be called into question. Which feels predatory from a writer's perspective, as Richard’s gender and sexuality shouldn’t be up for debate based on who he decides to choose as a partner. His gender and his sexuality belong to him and him alone and should not be dependent on his love interest. Bara ou no Sorestsu is a strange reinterpretation of the story of Richard III, loosely inspired by Shakespeare's plays Henry VI parts 1 - 3 and Richard III. (Not sure what it means in the official summary "Based on an early draft of Shakespeare's play." What early draft? I don't think anything like that exists.) It begins when Richard is a child, rejected by his mother as he was born intersex. (I choose to refer to Richard as "he" as he seems to identify as male most of the time) Richard has a great "father-daughter" relationship with his father, whom he adores, but is troubled by visions of Joan of Arc, who represents his feminine nature.

The series, all 17 volumes, enjoys great popularity. It was originally serialized in a Japanese magazine from October 2013 to January 2022, has obviously been very popular, spinning off three drama CDs, two more manga series, a novel, a stage play, and an anime TV series.A bonus manga chapter, Bara-Ō Ryokō-ki ( 薔薇王旅行記, "The Rose King's Travel Report"), was published in the July 2015 issue of Monthly Princess on 5 June 2015.

Aya Kanno really did deliver when she said ‘full circle’, because wow! There are scenes, poses, and dialogue, with Richard and Henry that are so similar to volumes 1-7.

The characters are very well-developed, each with their own positive and negative personalities. This manga truly shows how not everyone is 'perfect'. The main character himself has a lot of burden and worries, from wanting his Mother's love to trying to get the King's seat. Along the series, the main character becomes more mature, and becomes more sensible, mature. Although he also became a lot darker, that is just one trait of him, which makes him unable to trust the people around him. If you continue reading the series, you will find the main character very lovable, and the author makes it such that you can sympathize with his difficulties being both female and male.

I am not a regular reader of manga, but as this series has to do with Richard III, I figured I would give it a try. The story line is very loosely based on Shakespeare’s plays Henry VI, Part 3 and Richard III. And if you think the Bard plays fast and loose with historical facts, wait until you read this. En esta historia los roles de género tienen una importancia muy grande. Como siempre, los personajes de Shakespeare son puro dramatismo y con mentes atormentadas que hacen que la historia se retuerza un poco. Asselin, Janelle (2015-04-03).
