As much as I think Gankutsuou is an amazing Monte Cristo adaptation, I think Villefort couldve been done a lot better. I just finished reading an abridged version of the book today, and it made me really emotional how much that man actually loved his family. Yeah he didnt have the best relationship with his father, but still kept him around and made sure he was cared for when he got paralyzed. It didnt really come to my attention earlier, but at the end of the book, with all the poisoning going on, that poor man went through so much. First his father in law, then his mother in law, one of the most loyal servants, his daughter and then his son and wife.

The way he stayed with Valentine after he thought she passed, and the way he came to Heloïse as "the judge" but still wanted to come back later and give her a life with their son somewhere far away. Because he still loves her. And he knows that, though what she did was horrible, her intentions were coming from a mother wanting a good life for her son, and he respected that. But then she had killed herself when he came back, and killed Edward too. The way Villefort hoped Edward was still alive and how he held him was just so. Augh. And then going insane after all this, he just loved them so genuinely much and I wish the anime showed that side of him.

i should be reviewing some materials for my zoom class tonight because i actually suck at it and constantly have complete breakdown during its session, but is that what i’m doing?? NO, of course not. instead, i just started my most intimidating read for this month that has 544 pages, (and is a thick hardcover with such small texts that somehow makes it scarier for me) about oxford’s royal institute of translation in the early 1800s, and avoiding my own studies like a plague even though it only worsened my growing anxiety

I don't talk about the books I read too often because for the most part I generally either go "...alright" or find them satisfying but not as mentally itchy as things that I want to engage with transformatively (TLU being a rare exception where I think it's satisfying AND I can't shut up about it but honestly how could I possibly NOT talk about TLU) but anyway.
