Anime & Manga / Re: What are you currently watching in the spring/summer 2008 season?

« on: July 21, 2008, 12:30:17 AM »

How was Kure-Nai, by the way? I watched part of it and then gave up because it began to bore me.

Did you finish all of episode 1? If that didn't hook you you probably won't like the series.

Overall I liked the series, one of my favs of spring 2008. Dialogue is really natural in Kure-nai.

Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE / Your thoughts on TRC's connection with CCS (SPOILERS ahead)

« on: July 17, 2008, 03:39:12 AM »

This whole thread is nothing but spoilers.




I hate the way they're connected. I was not impressed at all. Frankly, it made me want to throw away all of the non-original Tsubasa characters; none of them can hold a candle to their originals. Aside from Fye and Kurogane, lately it seems like Tsubasa is a compilation of cheap-knock offs of past CLAMP heroes + shounen action (and not even the gay kind).

Between the two, my loyalty undoubtedly lies with the CCS series. I need to know that these people are daijoubu. I do not like the idea that the union of Sakura and Syaoran led to a Syaoran clone. Genetically and magically, it doesn't make sense to me. Sakura is all but God, she's more powerful than Clow who is more powerful than Yuuko. Mokona aside, she was the all-mighty CLAMP character at the end of her series. If something goes wrong in another country and she gives a damn, than she should be able to go and fix it. No buts.

I don't see how none of her genes, personality, or magical power were passed onto her child at all. I am thinking CLAMP must have an explanation of this extremely one-sided inheritance. And it had better be good, or personally, I would not consider Tsubasa 'canon' any longer. I also do not like Syaoran Jr. being coupled off with his alternate mother. I don't have a problem with fictional incest, but to my eye Syaoran Jr. is not THE Syaoran, however similar they may be. I whole-heartedly ship THE Syaoran x THE Sakura, and I feel betrayed if this is not canon in all countries.



Or maybe Tsubasa sucks because the speed scans can't get their translations straight.

General CLAMP Discussion / Unfinished titles....

« on: July 16, 2008, 01:51:27 PM »

CLAMP has three active projects at the moment. Plus miscellaneous projects like light novel covers, character designs, radio shows, and whatever else they're up to.

CLAMP also has four on-hiatus projects. They are, Clover, Legend of Chun Hyang, Legal Drug, and of course, X. And with Tsubasa and HOLiC looking like they'll finish before the end of this year, and an upcoming new shoujo series with Dark Horse, what do you want CLAMP to finish up first?


I want X. Its been five years since it was pulled, surely CLAMP of all mangaka can find someone else to publish all that violence and gore (and homosexuality :D) but they're probably under contract with Asuka?. I'm also anxious to see if they can immediately return to precisely the style X was drawn in when they left off- colour artwork for X drawn post-Tsubasa have not been the same.

Entertainment / Hana Yori Dango

« on: July 16, 2008, 01:39:18 PM »

I realize this will scandalize many a female- but I hated the Hana Yori Dango manga, and by extension, the drama. I find the original storyline borderline offensive as a female myself. I find /b/ less offensive. Yes I know the manga is 'the greatest shoujo of all time', and both the sales and its significance in shoujo culture supports that view.

The drama toned down a loooooot of things I found 'offensive' in the manga, so perhaps the heart of the problem is:

I do not find any of the men attractive.


GASP. So what do you think of Hana Yori Dango?
