Based on a supernatural manga by Kanno Aya, Requiem of the Rose King unfolds in the backdrop of the War of Roses. While it is primarily a work of fiction, the manga and anime draw on historical themes, including the struggle for the English throne.

Richard is plagued by visions of Joan of Arc, who tells him he'll bring ruin to everyone around him - and given that Richard III met a tragic ending, you can just about believe her.

Episode 7 Spoilers Below:

Dressed as a woman to hide his identity, Richard makes his way to his brother Edward's prison along with Catesby. Edward of Lancaster joins them along the way but keeps misgendering Richard, thinking he is actually a woman. Edward's attraction is apparent, and he shows it with gifts which, of course, don't move Richard.

Posing as a prostitute, Richard manages to free Edward. The brothers are aided by the Duke of Buckingham. Privately, Buckingham suggests that if Richard kills Edward and claims that he found him already dead in his cell, he could become king, but Richard declines to even consider it.

thus creating a very difficult problem for Warwick to solve. With his machinations exposed, Warwick must admit that he promised the throne to both Edward of Lancaster and George of York. When prompted, George admits that he would hesitate to kill his brother if it came to that. Warwick therefore proclaims his support for Lancaster and promise to make Edward king with Warwick's daughter, Anne, as his queen.

Anne and Edward are both against the match but go through with it. At their wedding, it's revealed that Henry has been found and placed on the throne again, much to his dismay.
