In any case, Albert is not Edmond's son in the book either, so the anime got it right. amazing anime, simply heartbreaking.. i wish it was more popular cause it deserve it very much.. am sad that the creators didn't show at the end all of them together at the party, that would warm my heart forever.. maybe one day i'll even read a book if i ever find it.. i enjoyed this anime unlike any other it was amazing on a different level.. for the last wait and hope.. :)
@mandilopez El anime es: Gankutsuō: 'El Conde de Montecristo 巌窟王 Gankutsuō. La adaptación a anime del libro del Conde de Montecristo de Alejandro Dumas. Un anime espectacular que me encanto :D. Te lo recomiendo
Stop comparing the book 2 the anime the story is different but the idea is to tell it from different point of veiw. In the book Edmond Dantes is a hero for taking vengance, this is easier to understand because you see all the pain he went through in the book. But in the anime the point of veiw is of a bystander(Albear de Morcerf) who suffers the wrath of Edmonds vengance on his parents, so edmond is portrayed more like villian and in reailty he kinda is.
HELLA fucking good anime, really sucked me in (watched the whole series today) and although the plot was all wack at first, i got over it and enjoyed the drama. I love the book, and I love the anime. Really, REALLY powerful.
@L2ACE Edmond had to die in the anime because, unlike in the book, he had formed a contract with a demon that cost him his body and soul. He could not live without Gankutsuou because he did technically die at the Chateau D'if. It was almost a neccessary step to make this anime so memorable; it displays a different outcome than the one we're used to that made us all cry. It was still really good, though. XD
@leafgilly1 He died from Franz's sword wound, which doesn't make more or less sense than the other guesses, but it's a lot more thematically epic that way.
I haven't seen any of the many movie adaptations, but despite the completely radical rewriting of many of the key events, Gankutsuou was an EXCELLENT adaptation and even the rewrites were pretty much as good as the original story. So I have a hard time believing that ANY movie adaptation can top Gankutsuou.
After watching the whole anime, I can safely say that the "I traveled through space to be with you" would be more in-character for the book version of the Count.
The anime was freaking EPIC, best "what-if" scenario I've ever seen for anything, and the end of ep 23 was freaking awesome.
strange, i start humming this song out of the blue, then search it in my collection and play it, and the next thing i know im already here :)
the anime is pretty unique, the color and the shade thing are really suited for this little dark revenge show, well can i say that gonzo got it right this time?
FOR SALE ON EBAY NOW. Stranglers John Ellis 1973 Custom Fender Strat Guitar Used by John Ellis on Stranglers, Vibrators, Peter Gabriel, Peter Hammill & JJ Burnel Recordings & Live [inc. the Freddie Laker Video 1979] 10 day auction ends 18th April 2010 Starting bid £1,750 buy-it-now £2,000. Comes with a C.O.A. Signed by the previous owner, a personal friend of John Ellis. Thanks for looking :)
Yes! Baby! The best adaption of the book, if you ask me. Okay, the complete szene in prison missed, but goddamned the characters where brilliant!! Edmond Dantes, Je t'aime!
This is the best song ever used for the ending of an anime. That's for bloody sure.
The anime itself is a work of art. The best and one of the few that actually made me cry my heart out. I can't say "Happy Birthday Albert" without remembering that episode, I cried continuously for about 2 hours afterwards... never seen the like.
Anyway, this is a great song. Thanks 4 the lyrics! ♥♥♥
Everything was perfect. The subtlety of the emotions, the cunning of the count, the psychology, the relationships, the plot, setting, music, art work, acting; all flawless (except for the English dub, which while good, isn't up to par with geneon's previous dubs like Hellsing ultimate).
@shotahunter True I mean and to think this was done by Studio GONZO a studio known for giving up on projects about halfway through through the story and convaluding the series and dragging the series down with it a bit ex: Trinity Blood, Speed Grapher, FMP, Red Garden, though Trinity Blood actuallly does try to fix itself in the end
I couldn't agree with you more! Sure, it took major liberties with the plot, but this anime captured the magical quality of the Count and that world like no other film adaptation. I adore this anime!!!!! Monte Cristo burns like ice!
Yeah. Some of my favourite scenes were changed and blue Edmond is taking a while to get used to, but I'd still say it's 1000 times more true to the original than any movie.
No, its not. >:P hahaha, i know its complete. many months ago, so many i could say more than a year ago, a dude uploaded a pretty cool amv with it, and then yt banned him, then another guy reuploaded it, and then that guy was also banned. I just wanted to see what people will answer to my lame comment :)
I just started watching this show and it's mind blowing, absolutely love it. This song is just the icing on the cake at the end of every episode, pure awesome.
