Episode Reviews

Another fascinating story about a lesser known noble and example of a man's life is much more exciting in the past. It's a shame that he/she died in poverty and anonymity despite the things that was he/she had done for the country, whether being prosecuted or not.

I can definitely appreciate how the Chevalier d'Eon's gender identity was handled in this episode. At the same time, I can understand why she gets presented as a prominent transgender figure, even if the language may not be ideal. All in all, I think leading with and emphasizing the fascinating and outstanding work she did should be the priority. She earned so many accolades despite how poorly she was often treated at the time.
