TPToA Podcast 405 – The Rose of Versailles
Description
The Rose of Versailles (2025 film)
It’s Ani-May folks, and the first anime film out of the blocks for this month is Jill‘s choice, a feature length re-interpretation of the groundbreaking Shojo Manga (and then Anime series) The Rose of Versailles. Is the modern take as beautiful as the original Manga? Does it feel as opulent as the 1979 Anime? Listen in and find out how we go eating cake and storming the Bastille!
Dion and Quinny are the two princes here before you, and Jill is definitely the Daufin of this podcast!
Synopsis
In the late 18th century, four people meet in Versailles, France and live their respective destinies while being tossed by the tides of the era.
