‒‒‒ “Elisabeth: Rondo of Love and Death”
A hundred plus years since the assassination of Empress Elisabeth of Austria‒Hungary (Rion Misaki), and still the assassin,Luigi Lucheni (Hikaru Aizuki), is undergoing interrogation at the court in purgatory. Lucheni claims that Elisabeth andDeath were a couple in love and that it has her own wish to die. In order to prove this, he awakens Elisabeth’scontemporaries from the mausoleum. Lastly Der Tod (Death) (Manato Asaka), the lord of the underworld, appears andconfesses that he loved Elisabeth. Going back in time to 1853, Elisabeth, enjoying the freedom of a princess of Bavaria,falls from her daredevil tightrope walking challenge one day and falls unconscious in critical condition. Elisabeth wandersthe underworld, where Der Tod, mesmerized after a single look at Elisabeth’s vibrant eyes, brimming with life, returns herto life as she pleads. He then is compelled to continue chasing her forever. At the same time, the youthful emperor FranzJoseph (Suzuho Makaze) is reigning over a vast country at the Imperial Court in Vienna with the counsel and direction ofhis mother, Archduchess Sophie (Chitose Junya). While Sophie plans to match Franz with his first cousin Helene, it isElisabeth, Helene’s younger sister, with whom he falls in love. In 1854, their wedding is held amid voices of amazementand disappointment at the tender age of the new empress. Setting aside the speculation that surrounds them, the twowaltz with only happiness reflected in their faces.
