Marie Antoinette finally arrives in Paris. We are in 1770 and Versailles are the wedding between her and the prince of France. But the horizon looks bad omen: When Marie Antoinette signs the certificate wedding, an ink stain escapes from the feather. This incident is disturbing that Marie Antoinette guests around her. It is not considered a sure sign of buonaugurio - History and then can not confirm that .
Maria Antonietta formally began his life of the Court. He knows the nobility who usually attends the palace of Versailles and receives advice from the first sisters of the King All are enraptured by the beauty and elegance of the Austrian princess. All except one: the Countess Du Barry, favorite of King and Queen de facto of the Court. The Countess has a neat little past, is said to be prostitute, who has married and then poisoned Count Du Barry in order to seize the title and its heritage. With these credentials, was able to get into a court where he quickly became the favorite (to put it mildly) of the king Louis XV.
Countess Du Barry feels threatened by the future Queen Marie Antoinette who, after learning his past, has now taken to Malvolio, reserving the more complete indifference and refuses to speak to her.
The attitude of Marie Antoinette is furious that the Du Barry goes immediately to let off steam by the Sovereign.
received assurances from the Sovereign, the Du Barry will meet again in the gardens of Versailles, Marie Antoinette together with other ladies of the Court. Unexpectedly, Marie Antoinette goes to her, who already enjoy the taste of victory, surrounded by other ladies. Marie Antoinette goes, does not turn even a glance at Du Barry and intentionally ignoring it invites the other ladies at a card game to be held that evening in his living room. The Du Barry, furious over the incident, will return by the king to complain, but not before he had spoken with the Duke of Orleans, which advised her to make Oscar's mother, Madame de Jarjayes, to be his chaperone. In this way the Princess of France will not refuse to talk to her, having the respect and consideration that Marie Antoinette was Oscar. When Oscar is I know of this sinister plot reacts angrily, but his father resigned the confirmation that this is an order of the king and, as such, do not argue.
Elucubratio
In this episode the theme is that the more the light is just what the social relations entered into a scheme of the Court and in an aristocrat. Marie Antoinette, as she grew up in a royal-imperial context, paying due to the inexperience and youth is abroad in the Court of Versailles, not without a strong ego: he knows to be very pretty and is greatly pleased his vanity seeing gaze at all. Stand sideways with the Countess Du Barry with the shield only the difference in rank (Du Barry for the label can not appeal to the Princess Marie Antoinette before, be it to her worthy of his attention Du Barry), denotes certainly Inconscience and absolute ignorance of the political balance that go beyond the superficial Barney table. In this episode the audience's attention is focused on precisely these kinds of relationships and the palace intrigues which, as we shall see, throughout history the human being, then as now.
Manga (ed. Pimpulu which amplify my thanks)
And 'interesting to see how the authors of the soul, from this episode until the 5th have developed the following facts as the manga an alternative order. Let's see some analysis on how they differ. After the arrival of Mary Antoinietta, the author now decides to introduce two other key figures, namely the two pseudo-Morle The sisters, Jeanne and Rosalie.
This is because in the anime and manga abbimo here that in another historic town of departure. On May 16, 1770 are in fact the wedding couple and of the August occasion of this event exciting for France the gardens of Versailles are also open to the people visiting. While in the manga, Jeanne and Rosalie just ponder whether or not to go there, their debut in the anime is returned to the 6th episode, ie during the first official visit of future kings took place in Paris in 1773. . . well then after 3 years!. Perhaps this choice was dictated by the need to give continuity to the vicissitudes of the two girls.
In fact, in the anime, the ending of the war of nerves between Marie Antoinette and the Countess Du Barry offers an excellent starting point to open a new theme of development in history.
In the manga, however, before coming to life the historic quarrel between the two ladies, Jeanne has already run away from home in search of a better life under the protection of the Marchioness of Brambouillet.
Curiosity (always by Pimpulu):
Lady Oscar is a work very dear to the author, not only for the global popularity that has given it but also because through the protagonist, as he took his life from the pencil, Ikeda vented resentment he had towards his parents for his daughter, who advocate a different course of study would then conducted for other purposes in life.
So the feelings of protest as well as those of fear and love that characterize Oscar are the reflection of the personal life of the designer.
learn from an interview given to Ikeda, that when a manga gets out successfully by the Japanese territory for himself with the same echo in other countries is only at that moment that a mangaka (comic artist) is recognized that in his own country. Too severe? I would not say if you think that the comic takes place in early 70's when Japanese society was perhaps less westernized than today.
With Lady Oscar, Ryoko Ikeda for the contribution that popular and has continuously offered in respect of French history, in 2008, he received the French government's highest honors of Knighthood, which can be attributed, the Legion D'Honneur.
