According to Mr. Bobinski (4/5)
“It’s a very good series! And I find that the quality does not deteriorate over the seasons! Even if the series seems a little too “modern” to me… the make-up is too modern and flashy and I don’t particularly like that the music is covers of our time… it breaks the world a bit.“

“If you want lightness, beautiful costumes and bring back the memories of your first love, this is perfect. If we like the fashion of the 1700s and 1800s, that’s fine. The romantic summer romance we’ve been hiding from everyone is here, the TV version. It all depends on what state we are in at the moment, you may like it or not!“
