Gankutsuou: The count of Monte Cristo.

Not only is it an amaizing Anime, the Manga should leave you speachless. First of, the Illustrations might be a bit different, but none the less beautiful.

Take a good look at Counts inner cape. And the amaizing patterns in his hair when he is consumeb by the Gankutsuou.

Secondly, the Manga has even more drama then the Anime, and you kind of see the characters in a different setting, visual style, and personality,

If I will compare, for example Valentine from the Anime and Valentine from the Manga, they are two different people. Valentine from the Anime is very shy, quiet and reserved, Valentine from the Manga Is a bit more out going, and open, and doesn't seam to be as in love with Franz as the Anime Valentine.

Thirdly, you can actually see for yourself, why Edmond Dantes is the way he is, there is a very clear flashback he has when he travels to earth, you can actually invision being trapped in the Chateau d'if, what he experianced, what he saw and what became of it, of cores.

Over all it's an amaizing Manga and I really can't wait for Volume 3 to come out!
