This would have to be my most favorite series. Both the manga and the anime since both were so different from each other so it wasn't boring when I watched the anime after reading the manga.

I first found a review on the anime in a magazine, but I ignored it. Later on, I found the graphic novel in a bookstore and bought it. I don't regret my purchase =D

I wouldn't be surprised if there aren't many here on Mene who've either read or watched it since it isn't one of those mainstream series. If you haven't, pick it up ^^ If you have, why not come and discuss it?

Wow... I hadn't thought about Cosette for a while. I'd only seen the anime, but it was dark and lovely. Hm... I'll have to check out the manga. ^_^

Holy fishsticks! Someone else who has watched it! ^^

Yes, I loved the dark imagery. That's what pulled me in because the review was so badly written and didn't give much detail other than a plot summary XD

I've seen it on the shelf, but haven't picked it up yet. What's it about?

Skada- It's a gothic romance (romance isn't my thing but this was good) about a young girl who was killed by her fiancee who was a crazed painter. Then she's alone without moving on for centuries and eventually meets the protagonist, who falls in love with her and tries everything to save her soul.

Very twisted, both the anime and manga >>

  • I've been interested in it purely because of the French title, and the fact that the main character is named Cossette.
    Is the story anything like Les Miserables?
    Either way, I'm sure I'll get my hands on a copy to read sometime. xD

Zurie- I've never read Les Miserables. I might in Sophomore year (not sure) so I don't know the story.

I think I saw the Sound Track for this anime on the Right Stuf website, going for a really cheap price as one of their weekly deals. I wanted it, but couldn't scrounge up the money in time.

I also didn't know there was a manga/graphic novel of it. Maybe i'll check that out.

As for the anime, has it been dubbed into English? Or just subbed?

Was it really that good? I saw some clips at AnimeFEST and I thought the artwork in it was amazing. But I never got to see it. Onii-chan said it looked pretty good too and he's not even a big anime fan. But it looks like such a beautiful styled anime. I'm not entirely sure what the story line is, but I would love to watch it. Is it on Youtube?

kumikoXdaisuke- Yes, I watched it on Youtube last year, but I hope it's still up XD

GainaSpirit- Well at least I know it's not "Petit" XD And I've noticed that with other things like Japanese rock groups and clothing brands (not naming any XD) that my friend pointed out had errors.

I've been wanting to pick this one up for a while (since before it was released here) but everywhere I've found it, it's so much more expensive than anything else I'm interested in, so I always end up buying something else instead.
Being married with two kids, I don't have a lot to spend on anime unfortunately, so if I can get two DVD's with more time each, or one with less, I'm going to choose the two.
Maybe I'll get lucky and my dad will get it for me or a friend will pick it up and I can borrow it. :?

Beautiful anime, the style, music and plot are gorgeous.
I didn't know the manga is different, I must definately get it now! I like things with a different but same story from manga, like Kodomo no Omocha and Jisatsu Sakuru :3 It's... interesting~ ^^

Cosette?

I saw this title and freaked out, because i thought it was about Les Miserables... oh well x'3

It sounds really good, though. I'll definately look for it on youtube, and maybe the manga at the bookstore :'3

I saw the anime. It really intrigued me with the art and how dark it was. Very interesting and interesting story.
