A slow and gentle Jane Austin-styled love story with low-key drama and without many of the typical annoyances of other romantic anime stories that beautifully captures the Victorian era England.

Nice romance without the usual tropes and clichés of many other shows. While it starts out slow, in time the characters grow on the viewer. Good production values and a realistic art style are fitting for the kind of authenticity the show aims for in setting and characters.

I watched the first episode, felt that it was stuffy (annoying cliched victorian culture), too slow and boring and left it. I came back to it 2 years later when I had nothing else to watch saw a few episodes and fell in love with it and ended up binge watching both seasons in a single day (it was that addicting).
Story is so simple - a rich guy falls in love with a maid and the trouble they both end up facing because of the class society.
The fantastic part of this anime is how well they have flushed out the characters, not just the main 2 people but all the supporting cast that you empathize with everyone and fall in love with each of them.
I hope people would make more anime like this (I was thinking why creators did the same old high school thing when they had the whole world of options to create a love story)
The animation is old, but very beautiful. Music is great, story is heart felt, I think it is underrated.

Even though it is a typical impossible love story, it's so well-made and heartfelt I didn't mind all the cliché.
Beautiful animation, wonderful music and detailed portrayal of Victorian London.

A Jane Austin styled romance story set in Victorian London, that does exactly what it says on the tin. A good if a little clichéd story. Personally, I enjoyed the excellent animation and the large amount of research that clearly went into the show to accurately portray Victorian England. Fans of Jane Austin's work should obviously check this series out, but if you have an interest in historical England, this might also be of interest to you.

A pleasant surprise this was. Though nothing truly exceptional in this first season, the story was moving and the characters pulled it off for me.
