So, for the first time in a long time, it's another chapter that Arai adapted for his manga (pages 337–340 in the just released second English omnibus—I literally got my copy today!) in today's Les Mis Letters! Chapter 2.1.19, "The Battle-Field at Night," introduces towards the very end two characters who will be very important to the story going forward (even though Georges won't have very much of on-page time after this. Poor guy).
Arai starts off his Book 3, Marius, on the fields of Waterloo, with Thenardier scrounging among the bodies.
The rest of his Book 3 won't occur until much, much later in The Brick, because he lumps the Waterloo scene with Marius' introduction.
Anyway, the rest of the scene goes pretty much as it does in The Brick, and y'all should buy the manga's English translation. I spent a goodly portion of my evening reading the entirety of the second Omnibus, and aside from a couple stylistic things I personally disagree with, the translation is really good! Shoutout to Adrienne Beck, the translator, and Molly Tanzer, who worked on the adaptation, and all the other folks at Seven Seas Entertainment who made this excellent adaptation super accessible to English-speaking audiences!

Just wanted to say, thanks for posting that last poll tournament! Hanamusa was basically my gateway back into the wider Pokémon fandom (I’ve still played most of the core games bar Sword/Shield, but I dropped off the anime around the middle of X/Y), so I’ve got a lot of attachment there, but I learned a lot from seeing all the different pairings and it was really fun seeing people championing them (and I’ll always be an Appealshipping cheerleader!).
I know setting up these polls is what you set up this account for, but I also know it takes a lot of work and setup, so thanks!
THANK YOUUU ;_; THIS MEANS A LOT!! im so happy that people have been enjoying the tournament!!
