I'm really depressed now. I need some cheering up.

Anyway, I just watched the Tokyo Revelation OVA because I was bored and curious. Besides the change of order in events, sure, it looks kind of faithful to the manga.

I have to admit: I'm an animation geek. ...Which is why it's my major. And since anime is no longer my usual fare of escapism, I haven't been exposed to the Japanese style of movement and animation in...quite a while. Admittedly, I was fangirling the animation.
I also love how pimp Kuro was. Giving Syaoran a piggyback ride, manhandling Fye, and then topping Sakura. Lulz.
Also, Fye's voice = almost disgustingly gay. Like WOW. Thankfully it seems the seiyuu for Syaoran finally hit puberty, so he's not as hard to listen to as he was in KH and KHII... And Kuro sounds his like balls are swinging between his KNEES. Good grief. I like Sakura's voice though... And I really wish Yuuko had more lines. Her voice (from what little I could glean) sounds awesome. (And I kinda wanted to hear Watanuki too.)

Ah, it's the new trend of titling things something that has absolutely no relevance to what's actually going on. ...Scratch the "new" part.

I'm going to look for Fuuma's ears.

I think the animation was great in some parts, but in some it was sucky to me. Granted, it's just subjectiveness and I'm not an expert like you.

I didn't comment on the seiyuu because I've always been either indifferent or not fond of them (exception being Watanuki in HOLiC, and he didn't talk in this OVA anyway; Yuuko is good, but not close to my mental voice). Actually, my only strong thought on Tsubasa seiyuus is that my level of hell surely includes anime!Mokona saying retarded things in repeat. And I don't care enough about the Tokyo characters (Kamui, Subaru, etc) to have any thoughts on their voices.

Fuuma's ears were half his face or something.

NONONONO Syaoran's outfit from the ending pic is the one from the cover of Infinity arc! From that set where we got Sakura&Kuro, Syaoran&Fye and then Cloney alone :O

Ah. I have really bad memory for splash covers XP

It confuses me so much D: Did they mess up? Did they cut Clow? Did they have issues with Madhouse and couldn't use CCS symbols? I DON'T KNOW.
