Gosick is a mysterious
and romantic anime. It is an anime set in Sauville/Saubure (fictional country).
A student, Kujo the youngest son of an officer in the Japanese Imperial Army,
was selected to go to Saint Marguerite Academy as an exchange students. In the
school, he meets the Victorique. She is clever and beautiful girl and she spends
most of her time on the top of the library, helping his brother (Grevil who is
a detective) to solve cases.
In my opinion, it is one of the best anime in terms of
character design and plots in part two (that will be mention later).
Personally, I would categorize the anime into 2 parts. The first part was
mainly about them solving case and helping Grevil. This is where they
strengthen their bonds, showing care and concern to one another. The second
part is about Victorique’s father making use of Victorique. This part is much
more sinister compared to the first part. It shows the start of the main story
of how the country’s “ghost stories and fairy tales” are related to the
politics of the country. The dark secrets of the country are slowly solved by
Victorique on her father’s “request”. I feel that everyone has a very dark past
but, they will have accept their past and move on.
My favorite episode is episode 23. It is episode where Kujo
was sent back to his country to prepare for the upcoming war. The most touching
part of the anime to me is when is Victorique mother was trying to protect her
at all cost.
