The story hop-frog is great because of its revenge plot. The king and his men were complete jerks and treated the dwarfs as if they were nothing but amusement. I thought it hilarious when the dwarf set the king and his men on fire. I imagine the whole event being very funny. All these monkey looking like people dancing all around all of the sudden get thrown up into the air then cast on fire.
What I found Romantic about Hop Frog was that how everyone has a little evil in them. The nice little dwarf can even pull off something heinous and cruel if someone drives him to it.
" In less than half a minute the whole eight ourang-outangs were blazing fiercely, amid the shrieks of the multitude who gazed at them from below, horror-stricken, and without the power to render them the slightest assistance."
The King and his men got what they deserved. They were cruel and evil to Hop frog and his friend Tripetta and got what they deserved. This story also is Romantic because it shows the evil all around. Everywhere you go there's someone getting someone back.
