@Briar
Yes I am for all options other than RxJ I would prefer Juliet x Cordelia, or Juliet x Emelia. Tybalt is by far the top male suitor of choice if Juliet had to be hetero.

Yes, the olde lets shack up together in some ruin while we weather out this storm…nakkid. I still can’t believe the even works in the land of anime, at least gas gives cancer. Seeing how Romeo was wearing a gas soaked shirt let the tumors commence. You may have been going awwwwwww, I was going NOOOOOOOOO!

@mokokits
Yeah Romeo is one of those things that lacks spine. What Juliet sees in him is quite a mystery. As for the original work, I still think hawt yuri love beat out giving it up to a douche bag and dying in the end. Then again since I hated the actress who played Juliet in grade school death was certainly something to be celebrated.

Sure Tybalt could kick Romeo’s ass, but the best part is that Juliet could do that too. Even against Antonio its 10:1 in favor of the Antonio.

@Jobrill
My inner D&D geek is loving this new warrior Juliet and Tybalt’s I33t knife throwing skillz. All they need is for Cordelia to don armor and we would be set. Heck let’s add some ninjas in there for good measure, while we’re at it how about some Cthulhu that way Romeo can go insane and kill himself.

Yes, Tybalt must live and Romeo must die.

@kos-jin
Its seems like such a simple choice Tybalt and revenge or Romeo and servitude… I hope Juliet realizes that revenge is the only choice, plus Tybalt is so much cooler.

@Senna
You know that in Japan marriage between cousins was once highly desirable… That being said inducting Juliet into the very exclusive Shiratori (Mahoraba) club would be a plus in my book. Just my two cents.

Definitely glad about Tybalt’s bad-assery, but TybaltxJuliet? Not so much. Not that it would matter in most places, but they’re cousins in the original play. I just have a hard time thinking of them in any other way.

I would have enjoyed this series more if it weren’t so over-the-top dramatic, not to mention, some of the voice acting in major scenes were a bit lacking. I don’t want to have to cringe everytime I hear another “ROOOMEOOO!! JULIETTTT!!”. SRSLY.

This anime is pretty intresting , yet im not rooting for RomeoxJuliet ..Romeo er…how do i say this …hes such a wimpy dude …i really hate his charecter ..yet tybalt is HAWT! and juilet should be with him ..his strong and intresting dark charecter rather than too goody goody old romeo *sry romeo fanz*

I gotta admit, despite the fact that my inner Shakespeare geek is cringing at some of the changes, I am enjoying this series now in large part because of Tybalt. He’s long been one of my favorite badasses, and he’s just badass IN SPADES, so I’m pretty cool with that. I’ll be interested to see how else Gonzo changes the storyline, and I admit I’m sort of pulling for Tybalt to stick around.

Romeo, The Wimp. I have not found one person who doesn’t agree with me on that point. I got my friend watching Romeo X Juliet, and the first thing she said when I asked her about it was “Romeo is such a loser.” Sad to say, William Shakespeare’s character has been shamed deeply.

Though Tybalt could probably kick Romeo’s butt, and be the man in the relationship, I still like Juliet with Romeo better. The classics still come back at me. Plus, seeing Juliet be both feminine and take down “bad guys” just screams “Girl Power”. Rawr.

“Romeo tell his mommy that he met a girl named Juliet and learns the terrible truth that she is his father…”

She is? o_o

Joking aside, I think that’s a typo. At least I hope that’s a typo.

To be honest, I like Juliet a lot more than at the beginning of the anime… And I agree with regards to Romeo as well. The wimp. And not even a good looking wimp at that. Tybalt is so much better looking. And cool. And accomplished. And smart. And strong. And… … … I hope Romeo dies and Juliet ends up with Tybalt.

Wistful thinking, anyone?

I think that tree is seriously extra and unneeded. What is the point of it, again?

Although say what you will about the cliche-ness of the roaring fire and half-naked contrived scene. I can’t help but go all “awwwww” at that part. I probably should be ashamed of myself.
