Go To


1	* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: The final scene depicting Romeo and Juliet standing in front of a reborn Escalus. Is it their spirits in the afterlife or have they somehow been brought back to the land of the living without explanation?
2	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
3	** Composed by the same guy who did the music for ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyTactics''!
4	** Lena Park's renditions of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhAWM47hONk&ab_channel=MyFavouriteOPENINGs opening]] song "[[Music/JoshGroban You Raise Me Up]]" (in both [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcE0nAzKjD4&ab_channel=anlismil English]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diOXQ6Zvesk&ab_channel=jedimastersakura Japanese]]) are absolutely beautiful to listen to.
5	* DieForOurShip: Poor Hermione.
6	** It's made even more ironic when one remembers that in the show, Juliet [[BerserkButton would not abide disrespect of any kind toward Hermione.]] These particular fans of hers certainly aren't living by her example...
7	* EsotericHappyEnding: Ends with most of the cast living happily ever after... all because Romeo and Juliet were horribly killed and sacrificed to a tree which had previously kept the city they live in afloat in the sky. What's worse, the show makes it very clear that none of this was Juliet's choice, but that ''every single woman born to the Capulet line'' had been sacrificed to this very same tree, meaning that she could have never reclaimed her throne (something the series had been building up to since the beginning) or ruled Neo Verona even if she wanted to.
8	* FanNickname: Curio and Francisco are nicknamed [[Manga/TsubasaReservoirChronicle Fai and Kurogane]] by fandom.
9	* ItWasHisSled: Romeo and Juliet die. If you weren't expecting that then you've never taken a high school English class.
10	* NightmareFuel:
11	** Ophelia is at first a simple MysteriousWaif, but as the story continues and her ''actual'' role in the story is revealed, she becomes [[TheOphelia completely unhinged]] and increasingly AxCrazy...
12	** The idea of [[spoiler:the Capulet daughters [[PoweredbyAForsakenChild becoming one with Escalus]] to keep Neo Verona alive]]...
13	** The Capulet Massacre is scary enough, but [[spoiler:Portia]]'s memory of [[spoiler:the blood-covered Leontes explaining that he has killed them all while giving an EvilLaugh]] is creepy as FUCK.
14	* SugarWiki/SuperlativeDubbing: Yep, there's some inevitable YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe, but it's worth enduring it to hear many of Shakespeare's original lines ([[ShoutOut from more than just Romeo and Juliet]]) paired with beautifully animated scenes and wonderfully delivered by some very talented voice actors.
15	%%* TheWoobie: Both Romeo and Juliet qualify, as does Hermione.
16	* SpiritualSuccessor: To the 70's [[MechaShow mecha anime]] ''Anime/{{Daimos}}'', which is also a retelling of Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet JustForFun/InSpace.
