I'm sure that it's not "Toho" production which means that it's unofficial/amateur. Monitor video. Ends after last battle scene. Ripped from YouTube but it’s not easy to find it (even I can't find it at this moment). Big edges at left and right sides so video ratio is 16:9.

Block of performances devoted to 10th anniversary of the Japanese production, first block for Yamaguchi. Valjean-, Javert- and Enjolras-oriented highlights, ~2 h. including 20 minutes of special curtain calls. Absolutely great video, just minor generation loss and great filming. I was told that this bootleg was filmed by Yamaguchi's fan but judging by how much attention the master paid to Kojiro Oka, I have some doubts about that. Permanent time stamp which randomly disappears for a few seconds sometimes. Also includes some footage of Yamaguchi being welcomed by fans on his way to the theatre in the beginning.

Sound is very clear, switches to mono time to time. Rather dark video but not obstructed, good quality for its age. This is the video which is commonly known dated as "1997" but I also received it with this date and I tend to think that this is the correct one because it's full. Still, nothing else indicates on the date so I leave possibilities for both.

The video ends with speeches and flowers at curtain call so it could be either the closing night celebration or an opening night celebration, its more likely the closing night which places this video somewhere in the vicinity of 2001.

Last day in Tokyo for the 2007 block of performances, then the production moved to Fukuoka. The most rare bootleg of Japanese Lesmizes and I suppose it's because it's the worst one. Filmed from the gallery and the camera can't provide great close-ups because of that. The video itself is dark and at zooms it's very grainy and shaky. Still the sound is extremely clear, soundboard-like quality. Includes post-show speeches and the exit music.
