Comments on: Les Miserables - Shoujo Cosette - 39 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2007/09/30/les-miserables-shoujo-cosette-39/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated.

But then for people who have not read the book, the event may seem kind of confusing and they may think, "Wha?" But I guess that's the approach used most often because it makes people think. Personally, I sometimes like having things more fully explained, so that we can see the depth and complexity of the situation. Not to the point of beating people over the head with it, of course (yes, Victor, I am talking to you). ^_^ But I think the internal monologue will work for this anime, since the technique has been used throughout the series. Just as a new way of doing it. It seems most of the movie versions do that to some extent.

I rather prefer the "show, don't tell" approach of the 1978 movie. But to each his own. I mean both, really. I rather prefer the “show, don’t tell” approach of the 1978 movie. But to each his own.

Just . . . too sudden. Oh, wait, are you referring to what happened just before that? Well, yeah, that could work too. But I think I'd rather have it go by the book with a lot of . . . ahem . . . internal dialogue. Do you at least know how it happened in the '98 version?

Too many reviews from fellow fans convinced me that it was something to stay far away from. I'd rather think 1978 movie in regard to what I hope for. As for what I realistically expect? I don't know. On the one hand, there has been some censorship in the series; on the other hand, it is, as Irene states, somewhat important. Oh, God, the Liam Neeson movie … never watched it myself.

But, like I've said, the incorporation of Gavroche, if he continues to live past episode 45, will provide filler. There may be the teeny-tiniest possibility that the event we have been alluding to for the last 9 posts will be tweaked or altered in some way. (Think 1998 movie but with characters IN CHARACTER. *hinthint*) It probably won't be. Food for thought, though, as we wait.

Thenardier's final appearance, for one thing. I think they’ve still got of plenty of materiel to fill the remaining episodes. Thenardier’s final appearance, for one thing.

They've still got at least six episodes to kill. Well, I guess if they have Gavroche live, figuring out what to do with him will take up some time.

Those tend to be a bit violent - revolutions, I mean. xD R - I don’t think it’s that - I highly doubt they’d censor that - as much as it is the revolution proper.

Cos ... what highlight are you thinking of that might be censored? Does it involve a certain someone taking a night-time stroll, by any chance? Definitely need to see this episode!

Can't say really much, since this part contains lots of spoilers, but this will surely be a great month for les miserables.

One particular scene in this looked a bit too much like a foreshadowing-scene. I’ve got a few ideas of what’s going to happen to Gavroche, yeah.

And I'm looking forward to seeing how tihs part plays out. Though, based on the preview on the website, and the screenshots here, I'm guessing they decided to aim for something more reasonable than just the nine ami's + Mabeuf, Gavvy, Eponine, and Marius. Hope Gavroche kicks arse in this part. *probly a bit spoilery* The old man’s name is Mabeuf….I’m gonna really have to see this episode. And I’m looking forward to seeing how tihs part plays out.

When the anime started I was waiting for Enjolras and then for this moment! The baricades of freedom! I hope that they'll be loyal to the book, if they are it would be very wonderful. At last!
