This recommendation is already made by someone else, but I want to do it again. Reason? I just liked, loved, adored 'Startling By Each Step'.
So when I heard about 'Palace' I actually DIDN'T want to watch it. I was afraid it would be the exact same story over again, but then with a little less quality.
But then I decided to just give it a change. And I'm so glad I did! Palace is not a lesser copy. It is a story that stands on its own. 'Startling' was amazing, but Palace was satisfying in its own way. It wasn't as depressing and I loved the ending. The costumes where better too. So yes, even when you have seen one of these, I think it is definitely worth it to watch the other too.
