Rose of Versailles was so weird. The first 10 episodes feel so meaningless and pointless, but effectively just get you to hate the nobles, and then suddenly one of the episodes in 10-15 goes "hey let's go check out how the peasants are doing".
Ended up kinda based. Weird gender politics to a degree but it didn't shy on the revolutionary era of liberalism, kinda.
Wow, author did not watch Rose of Versailles, an anime where the main character dies Storming the Bastille.
