you know it rlly baffles me that les mis still doesn't have a proper animated movie (like the closest thing we have to that is the shoujo cosette series, which i rlly like dont get me wrong, and i think there are several low budget animated les mis kid movies too?)
like considering hunchback of notre dame got its own animated movie adaptation (by disney out of all too), even tho its very inaccurate retelling and kinda throws the book's entire plot out of the window its still such a good animated movie and i wish les mis got the same treatment in the animation department (not by disney tho cuz u just know they would probably make javert into a straight up evil villain, make the les amis into one dimensional characters and/or god forbid make enjolras and eponine a couple, cuz according to some ppl that poor girl can only get her happy ending if she gets a man)
i was thinking mostly about something in the style of ghibli or maybe don bluth if he still made movies (or literally any other 2D animation studio, i aint picky) like just imagine how gorgeous would the scenes be and the music too! It would probably be impossible to put the entire story of the brick into the movie but i personally think it could work, i wouldnt mind a 3 hour long les mis animated movie!
Or if the movie style rlly doesn't work well for les mis i'd gladly be satisfied with an animated series, each episode focusing on a section of the brick (basically shoujo cosette on a bigger budget, with more focus on the side characters, plus with more stylized animation and actual music numbers lol), les mis would work so well in animated environment i just wish some studio would actually be willing to do it.
or just give me more adaptations focusing on the barricade boys-
