I just noted that Amazon has updated their pages for the
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #1 DVD Regular Edition and the
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #1 DVD "Starter Kit" with the images of the covers. What's interesting is that the
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #1 DVD "Starter Kit" cover is the same as the
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #1 DVD Regular Edition but with an extra fancy border around it hinting that the box may
not be the same as the Japanese version which featured a manga style drawing by CLAMP for the release.
Something else that I just realised is that the anime series is being marketed as "Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle". Why is this strange? Well in Japan the anime dropped the "Reservoir" to become simply "Tsubasa Chronicle". Funny how the English version is going back to the full name used for the manga. I like it personally and always thought it was lazy on Bee Train's part to shorten the anime title.
I'll open this up for discussion so post your opinions in the comments below. What do you think? New box art good? Longer or shorter name for the series? How do you talk about the show? I normally just say "Tsubasa" actually.
