Les Miserables – Shoujo Cosette – 22

Quite an important episode, as lots of things happen that will be important for the rest of the anime. To give a small summary, Gavroche moves to Paris, Marius couldn’t find the Thenardiers and moves in with a friend, Javert still is obsessed with catching Jean, Fauche-le-Vent dies and Jean and Cosette move out of the monastery, after having lived there for six years. It was great to see Gavroche and Shushu back, by the way. Now that thugs are looking for the Thenardiers he needs to be careful, as they’re probably going to see him as the payments for accumulated dept. If you live in a city, it’ll become really hard to track someone down, and I suspect that he secretly wants to see Cosette again. I wonder what his role will be in the next couple of episodes, and where did the Thenardiers flee to, by the way? It also seems that Marius won’t be forgiving his uncle anytime soon. He even wouldn’t accept any money that his aunt offered. It’ll be interesting once he meets Cosette: he’ll be looking for the people she fears most in this world. What’s also apparent in this episode is how he has to get used to having a limited amount of money. He probably lived his entire life in the luxury that his uncle provided to him, and he really looks awkward when all he has for dinner is a plate of cheap soup and a bit of bread.]]>
