Gankutsuou is an adaptation of the Count of Monte Cristo, some book written by a dead dude.
It's a very moving 24 episodes.
Mainly it focuses in sweet bitter REVENGE. and i guess love.
Oh, and there’s hot dudes....

One of my favorite things~ heart
The animation is so pretty and unique and I love to see the story from Albert's perspective instead of the Count...and it's just wonderful all around. And the music was excellent. And it made me cry. A lot.
I just love the Count of Monte Cristo in general. The novel is so good, and I love the 2002 film version (pretty scenery! and Mercedes was hot!)...good stuff. A really timeless story.
I adore the animation and effects in this anime. it was very beautiful........ and it also had a good plot with solid characters \

I'm only halfway through this anime, but I agree, the animation is stellar. The plot is intriguing, but I'm a character-based person: I grow attached to shows based on the characters, not the plot, setting, art style, etc. And I just don't like any of the characters in this show sad
