مرده شور این اینترنت و سیاست‌گذارهاش رو ببرن اینقدر که سرعتش افتضاحه!! نصف صفحات این جلد باز نشدن!!!

Finally some execution scenes and actions. Though Charles is acting shady, I am rooting for Marie, so it will be intriguing to see how this story concludes.

That was very off character for Charles. He would finish the duel and win fairly instead of breaking the rules. He's always been a fair, lenient person so it was just wrong to make him do that.

Leave Marie the fuck alone Charles! How he descended into the very beast he so feared to become...

I love Marie Antoinette's character, I hope nothing bad happens to her...

Look at this freaking Yu-Gi-oh! card


Marie Antoinette is in France, well love by the people and safe on smallpox(maybe). Charles Henry is full of confident on his job yet almost forgetting this dream of a new france and end up focusing on the executioner's job. Jealousy and conspiracy runs Versailles more than ever and Marie and Charles relationship is hanging in balance and the rivalry lead to this:



Or more like this:
Charle's goes

and Marie goes


Also this book never run out of evil Dame de la maison

I'm ok with the violence, same sex relationship stuff but this is to....

Ohh look at that their actually in a relationship, good for you Charles.

The whole of France welcomes Austria's princess who is to become Marie Antoinette, the wife of Louis Auguste. The latter is also stricken with her, but he doesn't consumate the marriage. The nobles who pushed for the marriage are worried the masses will rebel when they hear of Louis Philippe's 'incompletion', so they order a high number of executions to keep the commoners entertained.

Marie Antoinette gets close to Marie Sanson the executioner. Though he doesn't know who his wife is seeing, Louis Auguste becomes increasingly jealous. The influence Marie Sanson has on Marie Antoinette is felp by everyone at the royal court. She leaves behind her shyness and gains confidence both with the nobles and with her own husband - if he won't sleep with her by hus own will, she will force him to.

Charles believes Marie's actions will impact the Sanson name, so she orders her to resign and marry Lord Gaspard, a mountain of a man and the strongest executioner of France. She refuses, so they duel.

The story between Antoinette and Marie-Joseph is super interesting, but it falls flat since I don’t buy Marie-Joseph’s characterisation.

And the story between Antoinette and the other Maria is also super interesting, instead, again, when I stop and think about it, I have no idea why I’m suppose to cheer on Amtoinette! She refuser to talk to the other Marie because she is commonborn and has risen by sleeping around.
But from the story’s perspective, the higher borns so far has been pompous bastards who the series has made me hate and excited about watching die, so I have no idea why the series want me to cheer one of these spoiled brats now?

Die Metaphern waren wieder großartig (Schlüssel+Schloss>Geschlechtsakt, fallender Apfel>fallendes Schwert>Idee für Guillotine?), aber gefühlt bringt dieser Band kaum neues. Dafür, dass es der vorletzte Teil ist, hätte ich mit deutlich mehr Handlung gerechnet oder zumindest einem größeren Zeitsprung..

Marie Joseph...eres una grande
Charles...que terrible todo

[Lepicentrecult · Rating 4 out of 5]

Un tome qui nous tien en haleine par l’arrivé à la cours de la dauphine, mais surtout la tension dans la fraternité Sansons, Marie garde et maintient tête à son frère Charles (que ce dernier voudrais voir sa soeur mariée). De nouvelle tête apparaisse pour nous apporter un final qui s’annonce explosif. Ce que j’aime dans ce récit c’est la comparaison que nous avons sur les mises à mort de la famille Sansons et les chemins que prennent Marie et Charles. Au passage, plus on avance et plus Charles devient comme son père.

Charles-Henri relinquishing his hold on his dream of an executioner-less France is heartbreaking. But not so much as him wanting to marry Marie-Joseph off. I'm confused where that came from, and what his motive for that is like does he just want her out of his way, out of harm's way, or is that to show that even he is not totally free from France's patriarchal ideals.

I love what Marie-Joseph represents for Marie Antoinette and d'Eon, and to a lesser extent, what Charles-Henri and Louis Aguste represent to each other. The Sanson siblings' hold on the royal couple is quite funny to me.

[Ostrava · Rating 1 out of 5]

Oh God. This manga is so dull. The comparisons with Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette are unavoidable in this volume, either as a result of direct inspiration or because of the similar sources that inspired both works (though I'm inclined to go with the former), and Sofia came out with the better work clearly.

Sakamoto has no idea of what he's doing.

Don't bother with the manga unless you really like the art.

Sinceramente este arco no es el que más me ha gustado, pero entiendo toda la importancia que tendrá a futuro más todavía considerando que Marie es un personaje ficticio y lo deben construir con cuidado para no dejar incoherencias en la historia. De hecho, es justamente en las cosas que más valoro de este volumen y el anterior, el tiempo que le dedican a demostrar cada detalle, ya sea con la imagen como con situaciones históricas. Me sorprende realmente todo el trabajo realizado en esta obra.

INNOCENT 8

Recta final de la historia del verdugo de París: Charles Henri Sanson y, por mucho que el personaje de Marie diga: “peor imposible”, la verdad es que es lo contrario: mejor imposible. Sangre, sensualidad, poesía visual y poder.

[Sabīne Ozoliņa · Rating 5 out of 5]

The many layers of the plot, the conspiracies woven by the king's court, the meaning of one's face in society - amazingly portrayed once more!

Oh Charles, si que haz cambiado.
