YouTube apparently thinks my search history has contained too much Athos-related stuff recently (I wonder what piece of writing could have caused it to get that idea...?) and decided to show me an incredibly obscure fanvid: https://youtube.com/watch?v=kvm3hCwWzRw
It isn't even particularly good, but what immediately intrigued me was that the soundtrack sounded subliminally familiar. It dawned on me that the creator had mashed up the finale of the unfairly obscure George Stiles musical "The Three Musketeers" with the images from Sous le Signe des Mousquetaires (or, more likely, from the original Japanese anime). But after all, I suppose there is no reason why other people should not have dug deep enough to discover both ;-)
I am, however, slightly taken aback to find that these various ancient fanvids for the Japanese version appear to contain footage that I simply don't remember seeing in the French-Canadian one (and I also get the impression that there is a slightly different art style getting mixed in). ( Feature film? )
Edit: well, that didn't take too long to find once I knew it existed :-)
And it turns out it's on YouTube *in French*, so I couldn't have asked for better! Being in French probably does help it stay beneath the copyright radar (ceci est fait par les fans pour les fans...)
