About this deal

The art is typical shoujo-fare: very lithe, tall and beautiful people with sharp features everywhere. It is very pretty to look at though. However, the second occasion is uncomfortable. Richard is captured by the enemy and is assaulted. His shirt is cut open revealing his chest. In this scene, Richard is drawn in...what I can only describe as a wistful, pretty, anime boy kind of style. And given the context of this scene, it feels out of place. My fear while reading this series is that the author, Kanno is attempting to romanticize and sexualize Richard’s dysphoria and his body in a way that is supposed to appeal to and titillate an audience. I’m not saying that this IS the intention, but it is something I’m concerned about while reading. Who is this story meant for? Does this story have good intentions? Or is this just written out of some morbid curiosity and fetishization? Is this story good representation? I don’t know. I haven’t read enough of it to know. And honestly, on some of those questions my opinion is irrelevant. I am far more interested in hearing from the LGBT and Intersex community on the subject. Conspiraciones políticas y luchas de poder en las que uno u otro bando tienen que salir ganando. Richard es nuestro personaje principal, y el tercer hijo del duque de York. Este muchacho vive convencido de estar maldito y con más razón al ser repudiado por su madre a causa de haber nacido con un cuerpo de ambos sexos. Pineda, Rafael Antonio (4 October 2021).

Requiem of the Rose King was one of my most anticipated manga of 2015, and it lived up to my expectations. Based on an early draft of Shakespear's Richard 3, this manga follows the tragic tale of a character named Richard, born into the world an intersex person. Richard is born with both the body of a male and a female, and for this reason, his mother cannot bear to look at him. It would not be an exaggeration to even say she fears and hates Richard, for she purposely abandoned him in the woods where witches are rumored to reside and accuses him of basically being demon spawn. THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL SHOUJO. THIS IS DARK AND GRUESOME AND VERY DIFFERENT.There were many twists in the story which had made me enjoy it even more, and regarding the plot of the manga, it is superb! A man who has no awareness as king... A man who is not qualified to be king... Neither of them is fit for the throne." Elizabeth buscando venganza por el asesinato de su marido y consiguiendo alcanzar su fin. Mira que no la soporto, pero es increíble todo lo que esta dispuesta a hacer para alcanzar su objetivo.

Ok so to be based in the play " Richard III" by William Shakespeare, this is a very decent story (consider that this is a manga not a novel). I’m also quite in love with the drawings. There’s something eye-catching in the androgynous look this Richard sports—not what I’d call handsome, but attractive in his own intersex way. Este tomo me ha encantado mucho más que los dos anteriores que eran una introducción a la historia. Ahora sí que estamos de lleno en la trama y empezamos a vislumbrar nuevos caminos por donde irá la historia, así como la entrada de nuevos actores en la historia. a b c d e f g h i j Hazra, Adriana (31 January 2022).

It's been 7-8 years, but I have read Richard III and Henry the VI (both inspirations for this manga title) so I thought I knew what I was getting into. I was a little leery of mashing the two titles together, but Shakespear is so dramatic (especially his Histories and Tragedies) that I thought it would make a good pairing with a Shoujo manga.
