Hmm, I always enjoy Le Miserables. I was surprised to see it got an anime adaptation. (I found out when I got in an argument with a fellow anime fan over whether Les Miserables or Lupin III was better known.

Anyway, are there any fans here who had not yet been exposed to Les Miserables? If so I suggest checking out the musical. Pretty powerful stuff.

Yeah, I heard about that too. T_T I think your best bet at this point - as far as keeping out of their way, at any rate - is to simply avoid listing “shoujo cosette” in the keywords. I know they haven’t taken down cillabub’s clip of the barricade scene yet for that exact reason.

Yeah, it was kinda bizarre. I think the weirdest part was that some of the amvs were removed but not all. I can’t understand why. Three of my four were removed and one was an amv. My other amv stayed up though. Go figure.

I think Nippon’s more upset by all the torrenting of episodes and such cuz they’re afraid of losing money on their DVDs for the show. I wish they would hurry up and start releasing them in other countries. I do NOT want to have to buy them all the way from Japan, especially with no subs. Or dubs, if there’s any chance of that happening.

I haven’t actually. It’s a shame, though. I can understand episodes, but amvs?

Hey, psgels, did you hear about Nippon’s hissy fit over videos of Shoujo Cosette on the net? A lot of people had made videos (both as episodes, clips and amvs) of it on YouTube and other sites, and many or all were removed. What a fiasco.

I think if you google “michelle mercy” you’ll find it. She’s written a bunch of stuff like that (sadly, most of her stories are in German).

Mmmmmmmaybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee . . . ;)

The story I was referring to was “The Adventures of Policeman and Candlestick Boy,” or something close to that. My favorite part was when Javert kept knocking over the candlesticks that turn people good when touched, thus eventually giving the carpet a halo. LOL

It’s an old joke from when I was ranting about Javert to someone who rants about Tabasco. After a while, we ended up blending the two…

angedemystere… you’re just trying to give me plot bunnies now, aren’t you? :)

By the way, psgels, remember how you thought Javert’s name was Javell? Well, it turns out that there was a French village called Javel that is now a part of Paris. Go figure! And the name Montparnasse actually comes from a section of Paris, too (on the left bank of the Seine).

Huh? O_o Javert in Tabasco Sauce? I dunno what to think about that one. Maybe if you had said Javert in Hot Fudge . . .

. . . and the thread just took a very weird turn.

Actually, the idea of take-over-the-world villains made me think of Thenardier concocting evil plans while wearing his goofy diplomat costume and an intimidating monocle. Who could stop such a fiend? This could be a job for Policeman and Candlestick Boy! (And now it’s time to take my medication.) (By the way, I did not make those names up.)

… I naturally meant ‘Javert IN Tabasco’ not ‘Javert IS Tabasco’…

Thanks for blogging this! I only popped in near the end, but I’d be very interested to have a look at the series should a subbed/dubbed version ever make it to NZ.

Irene… thank you for conjuring fantastical mental images into my head of Grantaire and Enjolras and great big metal beasties.
It almost tops the one I’ve been carrying of Javert is Tabasco Sauce (don’t ask) but not quite.

I think Shoujo Cosette has got to be the most intensive Les Mis adaptation yet, and probably one of the most thorough and (for the most part) accurate, kids’ show or not. Nippon definitely has my respect for tackling it, and they definitely deserve the grade you gave them for sheer effort, if nothing else. :)

Oh man, now I have this inexplicable urge to draw Les Amis piloting Gundams…!

what’s really weird is there’s quite a few fansub groups that are willing to do this project,but can’t ever find a translator.
formula fansubs just released their version of episode 5 today saying “The translator has expressed an interest in working up to episode 13, but it may or may not happen.”
Someone from another group even posted this on this blog a while ago
“We at Delicious Fansubs have always been willing to take this project the full way, but our translator went missing in action shortly after our last release without a word, and lacking a translator there’s not really much that we can do.”

Tokyo Toshokan seems to have a lot of episodes. They’ve got a bunch subbed in other languages like Italian and French. I also advise that you check non-torrent video sites. I’m not sure if I’m allowed to say what they are. Just keep your eyes open, you’ll find them. I can’t wait till the DVDs are released in the U.S.

I myself used the program called share to get my releases. I think that the older episodes are still on there, so you could give it a try.
