i just finished the anime!!! its really great

surprisingly javert was the easiest to draw out of these

maybe with more info it'll change but Javert>Valjean gets funnier with the way it goes in the book

like Javert saw Valjean when Javert was in his early 20s, then he became a policeman, and some 15 years later (when he’s around 40) he meets a guy, his instinct goes !!!! and he spends FIVE YEARS watching him and thinking about him and studying him and collecting info and trying to make him crack, but also three of those years were spent being extremely respectful towards Madeleine because he was his superior (not to mention Javert avoided him as much as he could in those three years), and all that time Madeleine is just kind to him and Javert's mind just goes: but convict? can't be? no? yes? no? but my instinct! but instinct is not infallible! convict? no?

and then Madeleine is not kind to him once and Javert gets petty and goes yeah, he's Jean Valjean after all

For this Barricade Day, I present to you one of the Most Unhinged Scenes I Have Ever Seen From a Les Mis Adaptation. It hails from I miserabili (1948) — perhaps the Les Mis adaptation with the highest amount of explosions in it — and I can only describe as a barrel chase scene in which barrels kill the National Guard and damn well near save the day.

And yes, Valjean did just punch a guy, probably Enjolras, (correction via @pilferingapples, it's Marius) out. And those barrels do seem to have malicious intent. And yes, that barrel shattered a whole building. And yes that guy did jump over the barrel like a Looney Tunes skit. And yes that was an explosion.

This is the single greatest scene in all Les Mis adaptations. Happy barricade day.

REBLOG if you love Javert. DNI if you hate Javert

with bonus internet points to anyone who actually writes a list:

the definition of A Character is overall yours to determine, within the following parameters:

if a Person is Symbolically Nameless, they must have a known moniker to be considered A Character.

for the purposes of this list, A Concept is not A Character unless this is specifically indicated in the text.

misspellings are accepted and perhaps inevitable.

help me find my dog :(

Please fanfic writers I ask you now, I appeal to you now: make it explicit that Javert is conventionally unattractive. I know stage Javert is often cast handsome but please I beg you: don't miss out on the Love makes you Beautiful narrative

First base is me sparing your life. Second base is me saving you from drowning. Third base is holding hands.

you think you’re a better kisser than me??? you think you’re a better cuddler? come over here and prove it punk

I think JVJ and Javert are deliriously happy in love except when Javert says some shit that has JVJ turning round to look at him overwhelmed with the desire to tell him to shut the fuck up

whenever valjean and javert kiss, one of them comes out with absolutely fucked hair. I dont care who but just one of them

Who is not to say Javert starts pulling pranks on Valjean because he got him out of the Seine
