Romeo X Juliet

Hey guess what Romeo's on the left and Juliet's on the right bet you wouldn't have guessed that.

Plot:

In Neo Verona, the Montague family killed everyone in the Capulet family except for their daughter, Juliet, 14 years before the story starts. Now, Juliet lives hidden from others and pretending to be a boy, not knowing her real identity. By a twist of fate, she meets Romeo, the son of the Montague family, and they both fall in love at first sight.

Music: 7/10

Opinions:

First of all, since this anime is very loosely (emphasis on loosely) based on the Shakespeare play, you can pretty much guess what is going to happen at the end. I'm just going to leave that there. Also, I feel like they introduced a lot of unnecessary stuff at the end (a big tree, floating island, creepy plant girl, etc. etc.) that made the plot go flop. The only similarity this has with the Shakespearean play is the character names and the ending. 

And just in case you're wondering, yes, Romeo and Juliet do act retarded at the end, just like in the play.

Overall Rating:

7.3/10
