The anime based on a literary classic, Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo, is online to watch full episodes. Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo first aired 5 October 2004 – 29 March 2005 with a total of 24 episodes.
From the title alone we can see that Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo was based on the classic literary work by Dumas. There are still however many variances between the novel and the anime series. In the Gankutsuou version we find a wealthy Parisian youth named Albert who travels to Luna with his best friend Franz to join a massive party so as to take his mind off the “boring” lifestyle he leads back at his mansion in Paris. He is tricked by a concubine and taken hostage. His friend Franz is forced to ask for the assistance of their recent acquaintance, the fabulously wealthy “Count of Monte Cristo”. After easily freeing Albert from the clutches of the bandits, the Count is invited into Parisian high society.
Critics called the series one of the best of the year when it first aired and has been highly praised.
