Beautiful anime

There are a few historical mistakes done in this amine for example in the last few episodes they show the Queen dying a day after or on the same as Marquise De Pompadour but in credits while showing the portraits of the famous people in the show they give the year in which the where born and in which the died.The year in which the Queen died is different than that of the Marquise De Pompadour. But by overlooking these errors this anime is fantastic.The best part of this anime is that how the story progress .First its just about politics then how the main character Deon gets involve in the secret police of the king just to solve his sisters death but uncovers more secrets and in the end finds out about secret order given by the previous king of France. This anime is full of mysteries and if you get the chance to see it then don't miss it.
