A coffin is found floating on the River Seine, its lid marked with a single word written in blood: \"Psalms.\" Inside lies the body of Lia de Beaumont, a beautiful noblewoman and spy. Her brother D'Eon de Beaumont, a knight of France and member of the Le Secret du Roi - the secret intelligence service of King Louis XV - is consumed by grief and a drive to find her killers. His investigation pulls him into a conspiracy that spreads from the darkest alleys of Paris to the glittering courts of Versailles, St. Petersburg, and London. At its center is a terrible power - a form of sorcery bound to poetry and psalms that can raise the dead. Lia's soul, unable to rest, begins to possess her brother's body during moments of crisis, transforming D'Eon into a female-presenting warrior who fights with her spirit's full strength. The line between Deon and Lia blurs as the conspiracy deepens, historical figures appear as major characters, and pre-Revolutionary France is revealed as a battleground for forces that neither the living nor the dead can easily stop. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLe Chevalier D'Eon is a 24-episode historical dark fantasy series produced by Production I.G - the studio behind Ghost in the Shell, Jin-Roh, FLCL, and Patlabor 2 - directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi, written and created by Tow Ubukata, and scored by Michiru Oshima, whose credits include Fullmetal Alchemist 2003.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe series is loosely based on the real historical figure Charles-Genevieve-Louis-Auguste-Andre-Timothee d'Eon de Beaumont, an 18th-century French spy and diplomat who is one of history's most documented cases of cross-dressing, and incorporates real figures including King Louis XV, Madame de Pompadour, the Empress Elizabeth of Russia, and King George III of Britain as significant characters. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotable Staff \u0026amp; Voice Talent\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDirector:\u003c\/b\u003e Kazuhiro Furuhashi (Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCreator \/ Screenplay:\u003c\/b\u003e Tow Ubukata\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStudio:\u003c\/b\u003e Production I.G \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMusic:\u003c\/b\u003e Michiru Oshima \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOpening Theme:\u003c\/b\u003e \"Born\" by Miwako Okuda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnding Theme:\u003c\/b\u003e \"Over Night\" by Aya (written specially for the series) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJapanese Cast:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Yuuki Tai as D'Eon de Beaumont \/ Lia de Beaumont\u003cbr\u003e• Akihiko Ishizumi as Robin\u003cbr\u003e• Fumihiko Tachiki as Teillagory \u003cbr\u003e• Takahiro Sakurai as Durand\u003cbr\u003e• Kikuko Inoue as Madame de Pompadour \u003cbr\u003e• Norio Wakamoto as King Louis XV \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnglish Dub Cast (ADV Films \/ FUNimation):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Scott Fix as D'Eon de Beaumont\u003cbr\u003e• Blake McMahon as Robin\u003cbr\u003e• Jason Douglas as Teillagory\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDVD Features (FUNimation Complete Series, 4 Discs)\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• All 24 Episodes (I-XXIV) on 4 Discs - 576 Minutes\u003cbr\u003e• Select Episode Commentaries (Discs 1 \u0026amp; 2)\u003cbr\u003e• Historical Notes\u003cbr\u003e• Japanese Promotional Video \u0026amp; Trailer\u003cbr\u003e• Japanese Promotional Event Footage\u003cbr\u003e• Interview with the Japanese Cast\u003cbr\u003e• Clean Opening \u0026amp; Closing Animations\u003cbr\u003e• FUNimation Previews \u0026amp; Trailers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpoken Languages:\u003c\/b\u003e English \u0026amp; Japanese Audio, English Subtitles \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdition Details\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJapanese Title:\u003c\/b\u003e シュヴァリエ (Shuvarie \/ Le Chevalier D'Eon)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRuntime:\u003c\/b\u003e 576 Minutes (Complete Series, 24 Episodes, 4 Discs)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDirector:\u003c\/b\u003e Kazuhiro Furuhashi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDVD Release Year:\u003c\/b\u003e 2009 (U.S. Complete Series, December 1 - FUNimation Entertainment); S.A.V.E. edition December 7, 2010; original ADV Films individual volumes 2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOriginal Broadcast Date (Japan):\u003c\/b\u003e August 19, 2006 - February 2, 2007 (WOWOW)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e FUNimation Entertainment (re-license); original publisher ADV Films (2007, out of print)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRating:\u003c\/b\u003e 14+\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRegion:\u003c\/b\u003e Region 1 (U.S. \/ Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Originally licensed by ADV Films - transferred to FUNimation 2008.
