tsubasa. i've picked up the first two books of manga. while the first book introduced characters not as interesting as i had hoped, the basis of the story was pretty amusing. traveling to different worlds that take all of CLAMPs creations and mix them all up. i rather enjoy seeing them in their different incarnations. book 2 was much more entertaining.
as for the anime...i watched the first three eps last night. the character designs are kinda flat and bland. and their voices are generic.
the voices....blech. i guess it was too much to hope for some of the previous seiyuu to reprise their roles. and much too much to ask for megumi-dono to return. ah well, i was a tad perplexed with umeko's voice coming out of mokona's mouth. i was just waiting for mokona to spout out some dekaranger jazz.
yuuko looked pretty cool, but again her voice was odd. she sounded too young and inexperienced. i thought her voice would be a tone lower and have a more regal sound to it. shame we didnt see more of her in show.
the music. the opening theme is lame. and the ending theme is better but it could be better. the see-saw girls have a cool song abut they use it way too often for way too lengthy a time. its over-played and loses it's 'umph'. and in the 3rd ep, they had this lame lame LAME pop song that came in at the most inappropriate time. some of the bgm is nice but there's so little of it. the show would be better with more fitting seiyuu and bgm. yeah, that's what it boils down to.
i want a kudan!! i dont know what it looks like. but i'll have one, if i dont have one already. hrmm.
i still fight the urge of jumping into the book/tv and stuffing their faces with fatty foods. my poor poor sakura and syaoran.
that and jerry noticed that tsubasa and kingdom hearts have similar stories. it's true!
and another sidenote janitha claims her alter ego as sora. and i claim my alter-ego as syaoran. i still like the kid very much. ^^
