Definitely no hero in this one. Even the characters who aren’t trying to manipulate others and are being manipulated seem to generate little sympathy for being so clueless. It has that Jane Austen feel in terms of historical setting without being a romance story as such. Since there isn’t really a protagonist, nor a distinct story with an ending, it may be hard for some to follow through a 2 DVD set. If you’re happy with a story that isn’t a couple-meet-at-the-beginning and couple-marry-and-live-happily-ever-after-at-the-end then it’s kind of fun following it.
