The Rose of Versailles
A boy!
It's got to be a boy this time!
It... it can't be!
No, Sir, it's a beautiful princess, as you see.
There is no need for a girl in a family of generals, who command the military and guard the royal family!
There is no need for a girl!
W- wh-what are you doing?!
I've decided.
You're a boy!
Your name is OSCAR, my son!
The Rose of Versailles
The year is 1769
14 years have passed
14 years have passed since Oscar was born
Here at Versailles Palace
gorgeous dance parties were thrown out every night
despite the poverty of the people
Without even knowing that the French Revolution was
How surprising, it's General Jarjeyes.
Eh? Ah, it is!
General Jarjeyes, did you bring Lady Oscar with you tonight?
It's rumored that Lady Oscar is really beautiful. I was looking forward to finally being able to see her tonight.
Uh, well...
Hey, hey, come on!
Damn!
Oscar! Don't you have to go to Versailles?!
Damn! Who would ever go to such a place!
Andre, you've become worse!
Mademoiselle Oscar and Andre! Stop playing with such dangerous things!
Oh, no! It's my grandma, Oscar.
Hey! Say 'Mademoiselle Oscar'! Use 'Mademoiselle'!
It's alright, Nanny.
No, you've got to draw a clear line!
Andre! You're only a servant...
Ah! Look out!
Properly speaking, she should be wearing this and making a debut in society at her age...
No, I won't give up!
Someday I'll make Mademoiselle Oscar wear this dress.
Your Majesty, Sir Jarjeyes is here.
Oh, it's been a while, Jarjeyes. Come here
Yes sir.
Concerning your long-standing request about the Commander of the Royal Guards...
I believe you know that the son of Count Gerodere is also nominated as a candidate.
I heard he's a magnificent swordsman.
Yes, but when it comes to fencing, my son Oscar is second to none.
You said "My son"?
P, pardon me! Actually...
That's alright.
I've heard about the rumor that you were not blessed with a boy, and you've put so much effort in raising her.
How about a match with Gerodere and whoever wins gets the post?
Yes!
I also have high expectations for having Oscar as the Commander.
I want to guard Marie Antoinette as fancy and elegantly as possible.
In the 18th century, Europe was engaged in endless warfare.
Especially France and Austria, with enormous military strength, fought over each and every matter
But realizing that such conflicts only benefit other countries,
Maria Theresa, the Empress of Austria,
proposed a peace treaty for both countries.
As consequence, an historic alliance came into being.
As the token of their alliance, the engagement of Theresa's youngest daughter, Marie Antoinette, and the Crown Prince of France was arranged.
What do you think, Oscar?
There is no duty that's more important for the renowned French Royal Guard than this one.
You will guard Her Highness Marie.
Well, you have a match with Gerodere,
but I have no worries about that.
For this, I've taught you fencing for 14 years.
For this, I've taught you fencing for 14 years.
Now, why don't you put this on?
Hm? What's wrong?
I don't want to baby-sit a girl!
Everybody, help me with these!
Wow, beautiful! So many of them!
We're going to decorate Mademoiselle Oscar's room beautifully!
Grandma! Do you know where Oscar is?
Say 'Mademoiselle Oscar', Andre!
You're nothing but the son of a servant!
Idiot! Chill your head!
Excuse me!
Oscar! The match is at noon tomorrow!
Keep in mind that His Majesty is coming!
Mademoiselle Oscar...!
Well, today's event is quite a spectacle.
All the noble women in the Palace have come out.
Biggest in the history of the parade ground ever.
I'll finally be able to see Oscar today.
Ah, I can't wait!
Attention!
Monsieur Jarjeyes!
It's His Majesty.
Monsieur Jarjeyes, it's less than 30 min before the match. Is your son coming?
I think he is coming. No, he will certainly come!
I've never imagined this would become such a spectacle...
Oscar, hurry, hurry up!
Monsieur Gerodere, it's almost the time
Don't panic. We're almost there.
You don't seem to like it much.
Of course not.
I can't be proud of myself for defeating a woman
Why do I have to obtain the position of the Commander in such a fashion?
I was waiting for you, Captain Gerodere.
I'm Oscar Francois de Jarjeyes.
Oh, I've heard the rumors, but you're indeed beautiful.
Then let's hurry up.
Those snobs are waiting eagerly to see your face.
Captain Gerodere,
I don't wish to be the Commander of the Royal Guards.
Oh, is that so?
That's very wise of you.
Then I'll let them know that Mademoiselle Oscar has declined.
But I'm not running away because I'm afraid of you.
I'd like to prove that to you at least.
Having a match here then?
Did you hear that!
Please don't, Mademoiselle Oscar.
If you didn't get it, let me add one more thing:
I don't want to put you to shame in front of the crowd!
Or are you afraid of losing to a woman?
If you wish so, I'm willing to play with you.
But how can I possibly point the sword to your beautiful face...
What are you doing to my Master?!
Please, I may be a woman, but I'm a warrior.
This is the only way to protect my honor!
I see.
I'll fight with you.
As expected of a woman, you're agile!
Thank you.
I'm satisfied now.
WAIT!
It has only begun!
Are Oscar and Gerodere here yet?!
Count Jarjeyes! What happened to your son?!
Y, yes, I'm really sorry...
Oh, they're coming!
It's an emergency!
A duel!
Mademoiselle Oscar was waiting for my Master and challenged him!
What?!
OSCAR...!
What's wrong with you?!
Don't you understand your father's concerns?!
Listen, whatever His Majesty decides at Versailles today,
a traitor like you won't have any excuse!
Be ready for it!
I really can't stand it.
I didn't know the Master was THAT serious!
Wait!
Control yourself, grandma!
How many cups have you drank so far?
What's wrong with drinking every once in a while?
I can't help myself drinking tonight!
If I were Mademoiselle Oscar, I would have done the same!
I'd never wear a military uniform!
You can't be serious when nobody knows what will happen to Oscar for the act of treason...
Grandma! I knew it.
Hold on!
Mademoiselle Oscar,
this is a fight between man and woman!
A fight between man and woman...
I see.
Probably, inside Oscar's heart...
Is it Andre? Come in!
Finally moving on to Hundred Years' War today, right?
Yes, that's right.
A spring storm...
Keep it open.
It feels great when you're completely immersed in running.
But when you stop suddenly a No look down at your own feet,
you wonder where you're heading to...
Has that ever occurred to you before?
You're wondering as to why I don't put on the military uniform, aren't you?
Damn!
Who would want to baby-sit a girl?
Is that the only reason?
Perhaps, what you really mean is...
Go!
Please go away!
Good night, Oscar...
Master...!
Something truly unbelievable has happened!
His Majesty was quite upset but ... later,
Captain Gerodere, who had been wounded by Oscar,
suggested that nobody but Oscar is fit for the post of the Royal Guard Commander.
His Majesty's mind was moved and he forgave Oscar's offence.
Then..., he appointed Oscar as the Royal Guard Commander!
She can't get away any more.
It's His Majesty's order!
Andre, she might listen to what you say.
Make Oscar wear the military uniform with your life!
Hi, good morning!
Hi, you're up so early.
It's been a while since we went horse riding. Wanna go?
Do you remember when we almost drowned ourselves here?
How can I ever forget that.
You were 6 and I was 5 years old.
Yeah, both of us swam across for our lives.
Stop! Don't evade by blowing a grass whistle!
What's wrong?
Don't you have something to say to me?
Not really.
Why don't you say it straight?
You want me to wear the military uniform!
If you don't want to wear it, don't wear it.
Hmph! So that's your trick.
If you say not to wear it, perverse Oscar will wear it.
Is that what you think?!
You...!
Damn!
That's it! Those are the eyes that I wanted to see, Oscar!
Punch me, punch me as hard as you can!
This is the first time we had such a fight
Last night, I heard you talking with my father.
Oscar...!
Now, say it Andre!
I understand your father's concerns.
But I didn't want to restrain your life because of that.
So... so I've decided not to say anything...
Oscar! Let me just tell you one thing!
But I promise I'll never say it again!
Oscar-!
It's not too late now.
Now is the time to become a woman again!
How was it?
Did you manage to persuade her?
Andre, you mean...
Oscar has the right to choose her way by herself!
Master!
Father, this is not for you nor for anyone else.
We're going, Andre!
Yeah!
That day, Oscar said goodbye to her womanhood
and took the first step into the brave new world of adulthood.
Without even knowing that a distant surging wave of the destiny of love
and fate was waiting for her...
In that spring, Oscar was 14 years old.

The more i love you,...
the more blind i become to you.
Oscar...
