La Seine no Hoshi (ラ・セーヌの星)

The night before the French Revolution.

Simone, a beautiful girl who was raised as the daughter of a florist,

fights with a sword, claiming to be the star of La Seine.

However, she had no idea that she was the sister of Marie Antoinette.

Kill Marie!

The Star of La Seine.

Fly, fly, shooting star!

Fly, fly, shooting star!

The sparks of the sword fly through the sky.

and become the shining stars of the rising sun.

However, in order to cut through the darkness of

the night, I will sell the silver and the gold.

When the morning comes, I will disappear.

La, la, la Seine, the star of La Seine.

The Star of La Seine.

Louis XVI tried to establish a new tax system to save the Versailles Palace,

As a result, on June 7, 1788,

people who were trying to rebuild the country stood up.

On that day, half a year later...

To all the citizens of Paris and all the people of France,

His Majesty the King, Louis XVI,

has decided to convene a meeting of the three ministries,

in order to make clear to His Majesty the King.

I hope this rainbow won't disappear forever.

So His Majesty the King has agreed?

Yes.

Is it okay to leave the politics of the Kingdom of France to the three ministries?

Not to mention the citizens, I... His Majesty the King is too kind.

I will go to His Majesty the King right away.

If His Majesty the King stops the meeting of the three ministries,

the politics of the Kingdom of France will be controlled by the nobles of Versailles.

Robert, is the meeting of the three ministries still going on?

Yes.

I would like His Majesty the King to stop the meeting of the three ministries.

It is because His Majesty the King is too kind,

If His Majesty the King withdraws the order that has already been approved,

it will affect the dignity of the King.

If you do such a thing, the citizens will make a fuss.

I have no intention of turning the citizens against me.

What I hate are incompetent politicians.

That is why the meeting of the three ministries is necessary.

If the meeting of the three ministries is approved,

the citizens will surely be grateful to His Majesty the King for his kindness.

Domolar says that his kindness is a mistake,

and you say that the citizens are grateful for that.

I... I would like you to correct the situation for a while.

The citizens are really happy, aren't they?

Yes.

Everyone, listen to me.

At the next meeting, we will choose a representative from the citizens.

Of course, it will be His Majesty Pascal.

I think so, too. After all, he is our master.

Wait, wait.

It is not the same as choosing the master of the assembly.

It is necessary to know about politics and law.

If he is such a great man, he should not be in the citizens.

That's right.

I have an idea.

Milan.

It's Milan.

Isn't it Milan, the one who works for Uncle Leon?

That's right, it's Milan.

Milan has been in the United States for a long time,

and he has actually seen the politics of the people over there.

Besides, he is smarter than me.

At the time of the election meeting to choose a representative

from the citizens, please choose Milan. It is my request.

Thank you very much.

What do you think, Simone? Is this good?

It's wonderful. If His Majesty knows about it,

there is no doubt that Milan will win.

Thank you very much, everyone.

I think that the best way to think about politics is freedom and equality.

Politics is carried out by a handful of

people suppressing a large number of citizens.

This is not real politics.

That's right.

It may be difficult for me to win.

However, everyone, we must choose a representative

from among the people who can raise taxes, and think about how to use that tax.

Why do you leave such an old-fashioned man alone?

I just regained the trust of His Majesty by the order of the General Assembly.

If I arrest him, there will be a commotion,

and I will not let that young man win.

However, Pascal recommends it.

First of all, there is no doubt that he will win.

It is necessary to set up a battlefield in the city.

If that's the case, I'll do it.

Burel!

Call me, Your Majesty.

The Council of Representatives for Citizens.

Should the lives of the people be sacrificed for the sake of a part of the nobles?

The nobles and the citizens are the same people.

People work for themselves and fight for themselves.

It is the equality and freedom of the people that are the reflection of the nation.

Wonderful! That's right!

It's a disaster! It's a disaster!

It's a disaster!

Look at this!

Mr. Kanekashinobiru has been elected to the Council of Representatives for Citizens.

What?

It's true!

And later, he became a candidate.

All the men in the pawnshops and bookstores have become candidates.

Even the name of Lord Pascal... Is it true?

He has recommended me.

I'll go see the Lord and make sure.

All right, I'll go too.

My people were called by Mr. Burel earlier and went out.

By Mr. Burel?

I knew it.

That's terrible!

He didn't even refuse me and gave me his name as a candidate.

That would have betrayed Milan!

It was an emergency.

The other lords and lordships were able to understand.

They understood?

Karl, you too?

Pascal, I owe Mr. Burel.

Please forgive me.

So that's how it is.

I have a noble prince as my backer.

If he refuses and takes over, it would be stupid.

Is that a threat?

No, it's a warning of friendship, Lord Pascal.

I don't know anything about politics.

But I'm sorry for the nobles.

Lord Pascal, can you reconsider?

If he takes over, I can't let Milan lose.

What's that?

What's that?

It's Milan! Open the door!

Where's Simone?

What's wrong, Milan?

Lord Pascal was killed.

Lord Pascal, please forgive me.

I want to die for you.

My friend, I will avenge you.

Lord Pascal!

Don't come near me, Milan!

How dare you come here?

You killed Lord Pascal, didn't you?

What did you say?

I know.

Lord Pascal disobeyed my orders.

What are you talking about?

Shut up!

You came here and said that the nobles betrayed you.

No, I didn't say that.

We just came here to ask you how you really feel.
