It's been a while since I read the book and I remember more of the betrayal and less of the revenge bits, but it seems reasonable accurate... Granted, I've not seen, nor am I likely to see the anime version. But I thought the revenge was the point.
Also granted, I've only seen the "current" film version. But I know wife and I had some discussions regarding the book. She taught it this year.

I really liked the recent film version. What did your wife have to say about that, since I know they made a few changes from the book?

I have a '70's film with Richard Chamberlain. Several films came out then, with a lot of the same people in them..."Man in the Iron Mask" is another in my collection.
There was one very recently but a lot of the plot lines were entirely different IIRC.
