agree, truly amazing
When I was small I wish Oscar still alive too, but my sister said it is the best thing she die. I never really understand why she said something like that but after I grow up and read this again, it would be too painful if she is still alive without Andre, and she was sick, it would be more historical if she die in war as a warrior than die because of illness. Then again, Ryoko making continue story about napoleon (Eroika manga), knowing her character if she is still alive She will take a part in this manga too ( because Alan, Rosalie and Bernard make appearance in this manga ), it will be difficul for Ryoko to put Oscar into this manga.
But no matter how many times I read or watching this, it still painful, this is truly a masterpiece of work.
so i just read the synopsis and it reminds me of Joan of Arc
One of the most amazing mangas I have had the pleasure of reading. It's an amazing story. I always come back to it every year just to reread it and relive Oscar's life. It's such a classic. I wished Oscar lived in the end and had a happy ending, but sadly no. That always hurt me. She deserved so much and did so much and got nothing in return. She is one of my favorite characters! I always read fanfiction of Oscar and Andres just to make things better since they deserved happiness. This manga deserves to be read by any shoujo fan, definitely a one of a kind.
