   Le Portrait de Petite Cossette
Okay hands up whos seen Le Portrait de Petite Cossette (translation: Portrait of Little Cossette)?

I swear it’s the best anime I have ever seen. For those of you who haven’t seen it it’s about this young girl from the fourteenth centaury who gets stuck in a wine glass after her violent murder by a man named Marcelo who was actually a painter who painted portraits for little Cossettes family (we find out latter that he was also Cossettes fiancée) any way in modern time a young boy that owns a antique store (by the name of Eiri) finds the wine glass that she’s locked within and falls in love with her. Little Cossette starts to appear around him making think that he is insane and eventually she shows him how she died and that she needs him to become ‘alive’ again. In the second episode we learn that Eiri was actually Marcelo in his past life and that Cossettes precious items ( all of the furniture in the room that saw how Marcelo murdered little Cossette) hold an enormous grudge against him and so they goin together and form a sort of blinding light that goes through Eiri and try’s to kill him, how ever Marcelo feeds on the darkness of the grudge and transforms into a monster so little Cossette takes him to the realm of her wine glass and while he’s in monster form ( full on wings, fangs red eyes and ghoulish body structure and all) she ties him to a cross with thin wire like pieces ( while his monster counter part Marcelo tries to rip her throat out) and begins to scoop the black goo (representing the ‘grudge’ held by Cossette precious items against Marcelo. Then from there on he survive and goes back to the normal world as Eiri again and the combined power of Cossettes precious pieces shatter back into individual globes of light and flutter back into objects and such (like the grandfather clock, and a cabinet) and then I believe the rest of the series is spent going over Cossette and an ever patient (I have to mention that Eiri must have an amazing pain threshold) Eiri as they go from each item to a next scooping out the grudge from Marcelo/Eiris chest (with lots of blood included).

If I were to give detailed description on the whole thing I’d be sitting at my computer all day and end up with a fourteen page review. -_-‘ its interesting though, a flash here and there and you don’t understand it until later. It all comes together. Gothic is the only way I can describe it. (Lots of gothic and lollita in it to. My brand of heaven.

Anywho have a nice night(or morning where I am now) : S
