    Tsubasa on Bluray 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news A very interesting article here suggests that the first season of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle is due for release on Bluray in 2009.

    It also mentions that the series was made in high definition (something I didn't know).

    Will post more info as it comes available.

    Something else worth mentioning is that a Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles: Season 1 DVD Set has been released. I had no idea about this until I stumbled across it on Amazon. If you haven't bought the first season yet, this could be worth checking out. Basically contains the separate DVDs from the first season in one thin pack.

    Tsubasa Shunraiki Opening Theme: Sonic Boom 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news The official Tsubasa Shunraiki site has updated with the official logo for the OAV, detailed cast and crew pages and the announcement of the opening theme, Sonic Boom which will be sung by the CLAMP favourite, Maya Sakamoto!!! How cool is that? Can't wait to hear what the song sounds like. While she sung the ending themes for season one, season two and Tokyo Revelations she hasn't sung an opening theme yet.

    Tsubasa Shunraiki Updates 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news The official Tsubasa Shunraiki website has updated with a new layout and information such as the name for the xxxHolic counterpart, xxxHolic Shunmuki.

    With Shunmuki translating as "Spring Exposure" and the obvious Spring theme of the OAVs (as seen by the sakura trees on the new site layout) I think it becomes pretty obvious that the assumed translation of "Tsubasa Shunraiki" as meaning "Book of Thunder" is incorrect and that the alternate translation "Spring of Next Year" is the correct one.

    Tsubasa Shunraiki / Spring of Next Year & xxxHolic Shunmuki / Spring Exposure

    Makes a lot of sense, but I could be wrong. What do you think?

    Update: Just to confirm that FictionJunction YUUKA is returning for the music. Nice!

    Tsubasa Anime Episode Updates 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Some of you may have noticed a few changes over the weekend.

    I've been adjusting the header text sizes and fonts as well as cleaning up the image spacings in the Tsubasa Anime Episode Guides and adding DVD information to the episode pages.

    Speaking of DVDs, I've also updated the Tsubasa DVD Shopping Guide and the Tsubasa Manga Shopping Guide by adding all the latest cover images and shopping links for those DVDs and Mangas coming out in the next few months.

    I've also added a cool feature I've been experimenting with on my Sailor Moon site that you can see on the right hand nav menu that randomly shows a screencap from an anime episode. If you click on it, it'll take you to the episode guide for that Tsubasa anime episode. What do you think?

    In the past few days I've seen a lot of people visiting the Tsubasa Shunraiki page so I'll try my best to add more media and info there asap. There's just not that much info out about it currently though.

    Thanks for visiting my site! Hope to see you again!

    Tsubasa Shunraiki 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Special thanks to CLAMP NOW for the heads up: Yui Makino (Japanese voice actress of Sakura) has let slip in her blog that the title of the upcoming Tsubasa OAV / Original Animation Video (or OAD / Original Animation DVD) will be called "Tsubasa Shunraiki" which translates roughly as "Tsubasa Spring Thunder Chronicle" or "Tsubasa Book of Thunder in Spring". To keep things consistent I'll probably be doing what CLAMP NOW is doing and stick with referring to it as Tsubasa Shunraiki.

    Still no word on what the sister xxxHolic OAD will be called. "xxxHolic Shunraiki" maybe? Stay tuned!

    p.s. To all the new affiliates and link exchanges, I'll be updating the site within the next 48 hours. Yay for updating!

    Tsubasa / xxxHolic Project Updates 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Been a while huh? News has been pretty slow but there've been several big Tsubasa announcements in the past few weeks well worth mentioning.

    The OAV (or OAD as people are saying now with the move from VHS to DVDs) sequel to Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations and xxxHolic Kei currently just going by the name, "Tsubasa / xxxHolic Project" has been postponed from January 2009 to February due to the delay in the manga.

    An official site has been launched but no other major news so far.

    The second season of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles has premiered in English and Japanese on Region 1 DVD with the release of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Season 2 Starter Set. The second DVD is due for release later this month on the 30th of September and is now up for preorder.

    Manga-wise we've got a bit of a wait with the next volume, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #19 not coming out until the 19th of November.

    Tsubasa #20 is being released a bit faster though with a 27th of January 2009 release date set.

    NEW TSUBASA OAV (OAD)!!! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Readers of my xxxHolic site will know about the recent announcement of 2 xxxHolic DVDs that will be attached to upcoming volumes of the manga in Japan.

    Well the recent manga release of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles has revealed that 2 Tsubasa DVDs will also be released as well!

    The teams on both DVDs being the same, does make one assume that they may be linked, similar to how the movies were and the release schedule also makes one believe so with xxxHolic #14 coming out in January and then Tsubasa coming out the following month.

    Should be very interesting as more official news is revealed.

    Tsubasa Updates 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Some Tsubasa news!

    First of all, the release of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #18 has been moved forward from the 12th of August to the 22nd of July! Almost a whole month early!

    Also, according to several sources, there's going to be a BIG announcement regarding Tsubasa attached to the next volume of the Japanese manga due for release in a week or so. Everyone seems to think it has something to do with Mokona's "anime script" she had been working on. My bet is on another Tsubasa OAV possibly crossing over with xxxHolic!

    July 17th can't come fast enough!!!

    New Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Wallpaper 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Just uploaded a new Tokyo Revelations wallpaper featuring Production I.G.'s artwork of the characters from the next arc after Tokyo... which could possibly be animated in the future.

    Word is Mokona is working on "an anime script". Could it be another Tsubasa OAV???

    Fingers crossed!

    Tokyo Revelations 3 Guide / Summary Online! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news My apologies for taking so long in writing the guide / summary for the third part of the OAV, Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations: The Princess' Dream. Work has just been crazy and I just haven't had the time to write the summary, take screencaps from the DVD and put it all together.

    As a little bonus I've created several avatars featuring that fan fave character that guest starred in the episode and they can be downloaded here.

    Also, if you want to add a little something to your Tokyo Revelations viewing experience, check out the new season of xxxHolic Kei which features several parts of Tokyo Revelations from Yuko and Watanuki's perspectives.

    If you want to know where Yuko got those jars of water and what happens to the egg that Sakura had to retrieve, xxxHolic Kei is highly recommended.

    Tokyo Revelations 3 Impressions 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Wow... just... wow! I just got home and threw in my new Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations 3 DVD and man did that rock or what! Not only was that one of the best episodes of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle but one of the best anime movies or episodes I've ever seen!!!

    The animation quality was simply stunning, easily surpassing that of the previous two volumes and even the Tsubasa Movie. I was simply in awe at where the story was going, what was happening to the characters and wanting MORE!!! Production I.G. better keep going with these OAVs! If this is the final one I'll be very disappointed!!!

    I'd mentioned before that Sakura's Japanese voice actress always seems to act better when working with Production I.G. and I'm proved right again. Not only was Sakura not annoying in this episode I actually found myself rooting for her! Those who were bitching about Sakura doing nothing but sleep and be cute (that includes me!) will be thrilled with what happens in this episode! Sakura puts her racing skills to the test, takes down some massive huge arse mutants and is that blood and bodily mutilation happening? I won't say any more but those who have given up on the anime definitely need to check this OAV out!

    Speaking of the anime it's really funny how while I was watching the OAV the anime began to make more and more sense in a similar way to how the Harry Potter books work. At the beginning of the series the storylines and characters border on childish but then halfway through bam blood and violence and revelations left and right!

    Those who have watched both seasons of the Tsubasa anime before watching Tokyo Revelations definitely will feel more impact from the scenes shown here.

    The highlight of Tokyo Revelations 3 though is something I never expected, the sudden appearance of a character from a very famous CLAMP anime series that was such a thrill to see (I literally said out loud "Oh my God!") and so well presented it was as if the character stepped right out of their own series. I can't wait to see what this character has to do with the storyline.

    Something else that stood out was the inclusion of a new song which made me wonder if there's going to be another Tsubasa soundtrack release in the future. Time will tell I guess.

    Read As usual this site is spoiler free so please refrain from discussing plot points that occur after the Tokyo Revelations arc. Cheers!

    Tokyo Revelation 3 Trailer WARNING!!! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news A LOT of sites are reporting that the trailer for the 3rd Tokyo Revelations OAV is now online at the official site but none of these sites are telling people THAT THE TRAILER SPOILS A LOT OF THE STORY!!! If you don't want to be spoiled DO NOT WATCH it. Something pretty major happens in it that really ruined it for me and I don't want you to be disappointed either.

    Even if you think you know what's going to happen, don't watch it.

    But if you have read the Japanese manga and know what happens you can view the trailer here.

    You have been warned.

    Tokyo Revelation 2 Summary and Images 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Just finished my summary for the second Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations OAV, The Boy's Right Eye complete with screencaps taken directly from the DVD!

    It was Hellova confusing to write, let me tell you! I didn't fully understand the whole Syaoran revelations completely until my third watch through! Talk about confusing! Of course it all makes so much sense now. Talk about a game changer!

    I also completely understand now why NHK didn't want this arc adapted for the anime series! There's so much blood and disturbing behaviour in this episode alone that it just couldn't be done any other way.

    I also created several new Tsubasa icons from Sakura's "important person" sequence. Enjoy!

    Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations 2 Impressions 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news While Tsubasa #22 which comes with the 2nd Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations DVD isn't due out for another two days, the store near my work put them on the shelves today so I grabbed myself a copy and watched it as soon as I got home!

    Let me just say, "Holy CRAP!". That was the craziest half hour of Tsubasa I've ever seen! Some great animation, a super fast script and a voice cast that didn't disappoint! Sakura even impressed me by not only not annoying me but actually impressing me when she was screaming out during the Syaoran battle. It's just a shame it took the actress two seasons of the anime and a movie to express some emotion.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again; all the Tsubasa actors seem to do so much better when directed by Production I.G. It was evident in the movie and even moreso now.

    xxxHolic fans will love the inclusions of Larg the black Mokona, Yuko who's never looked so beautiful and Watanuki who doesn't speak but who's voice actor lends his talents to the role of Subaru.

    The 17th of March can't come soon enough!!!

    I hope to God, Production I.G. does another Tsubasa OAV after Tokyo Revelations!!! This OAV has surpassed my expectations in every way!!!

    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news GaiaOnline has released another exclusive item to celebrate the release (next month) of the 6th and final Tsubasa DVD (for the first season anyway). It's a rather cool rendition of Faye's coat which is nice but am I the only one that wants some better items instead of jackets and coats? What about Faye's staff? Kurogane's sword? Sakura's feathers or wings? Maybe Syaoran's staff from the first manga? Or what about a cool CLAMP magic circle to stand on?

    Tokyo Revelations Impression 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Well last weekend my Tsubasa #21 manga arrived in the mail and with it the first Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Tokyo Revelation DVD! What did I think of the first episode? In short I LOVED IT!!!

    The animation was beyond what I had expected for a direct to DVD release. In fact it rivalled if not exceeded the animation of the Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle theatrical movie that was released a few years back! Simply breathtaking in almost every way from the fluid action scenes to the beautiful backgrounds (those skies!). Everything was really very well done.

    The voice acting was also spot on which confirms what I've long suspected that Production I.G. must have very good voice directors. These are the same voices that were used in the tv series but for some reason I couldn't stand several of them (especially Sakura) but here (and also in the movie which was also made by Production I.G.) all the mains have so much more range and emotion with some standouts being Syaoran and Faye both of which never really "wowed" me in the series but shone as exceptional here.

    The script was also spot on though it was written by Okawa (a member of CLAMP) so I wouldn't have expected anything less. Having just read Tsubasa #15 which starts the Tokyo arc I was constantly surprised with how closely the script stuck with the manga. The direction also was heavily influenced by the manga with lots of shots looking like they were lifted right from the page. Kurogane grabbing Faye, Faye collapsing, the rounded stone and Kurogane and Kamui's fight are several examples of such influence.

    God, I loved this so much. What else is there to talk about?

    The music! I've always loved the composer from the anime series and she returns here with about a 95% new instrumental score (something I wasn't expecting). Again she really shines though unlike the series which used her tracks and just threw them behind scenes, here it looks like she composed the music for the action on screen as all the music fits flawlessly!

    The opening credits are INSPIRED. I never would have expected the magical circles to be used in such a way but they work very well go with Yui's Syncronicity perfectly!

    The ending credits have got to be one of the best ending credits I've seen. Period. Not only is the song so much more mature than what we've come to know from Tsubasa's ending themes but the on screen animation is PERFECT! The panning shots of the gang (where's Mokona though?) look like they were drawn by CLAMP themselves (they even use the clothes they're wearing on the box that came with it!) and the Dragons of Heaven and Earth all standing together is so powerful I almost forgot who the main characters of the show really were!

    Overall I give this 10 out of 10!

    This was so much more than I expected. I can't wait until January when the next DVD comes out!

    Japan Against Illegal Manga and Anime Downloads 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news AnimeNewsNetwork has just posted an article on how the Japanese government has asked the US government to crack down on illegal anime and manga downloads. Surprisingly almost everyone in the forums over there agrees with the decision!

    Personally I'm against fansubbing of anime and manga especially series like Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle and xxxHolic which are currently being released officially stateside as well as in Australia and other countries in English.

    This is why I no longer link to torrents or sites that offer Tsubasa and xxxHolic manga and anime for download. Services like those affect the sales of the series here as well as back in Japan.

    What do you think?

    Updates here and there... everywhere! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news I know I've been neglecting my little baby so I've done some cleaning up here and there by adding a new section for the upcoming Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle: Tokyo Revelations which has all the basic info you need to know about the OAV.

    I also added the some links to the Links page which has almost everything official covered now. I found it interesting that Funimation has created a separate site for the second season of the anime. Weird.

    Updated the DVD Shopping Guide with links and images for the third Tsubasa DVD which crept up out of nowhere. If you haven't ordered yours yet (I just grabbed mine yesterday) ORDER NOW!

    Volumes 13 and 14 of the manga have also been released recently. Expect my reviews soon.

    Also, a big hello and thanks to everyone who has subscribed to the site feed! Over 230 subscribers is amazing! Cheers guys!

    Tsubasa Chronicle Tokyo Revelations News 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news The official Tsubasa Chronicle: Tokyo Revelations website has uploaded with an amazing new picture featuring the two Syaorans and Sakura (notice the blood!) and some very cool news that Yui Makino who voices Sakura will be singing the opening theme song (she also sang several songs for the anime and the closing theme song for the movie) and Maya Sakamoto will be singing the closing theme!

    This is great news as 1) we now know we'll be getting new music with the OAV and 2) There'll be a sense of continuity with the first two seasons of the anime!

    In other news, ChibiYuuto has found several cool pics from the upcoming CLAMP in Wonderland 2 well worth a look!

    Tsubasa Season 2 Confirmed and Sakamoto News 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news For those who didn't know, Funimation has confirmed that it will be releasing season 2 of Tsubasa next year following the release of the first season on DVD! Nice to have it confirmed!

    Fans of Maya Sakamoto (who sang Loop and Kaze Machi Jet and voice Tomoyo) should check out this report at ANN which has some Maya news as well as some cool stuff from Production I.G.

    P.S. Just saw Ghibli's Tales of Earthsea and it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen!!! Definitely rent first!!!

    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Tokyo Revelations 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Special thanks to Clamp Now for posting this and those involved in the translating for now we know exactly how the new Tsubasa OAV will be released and when and what it will actually be!

    Seems that the OAV will be split into three 25 (approx) minute episodes spread across three DVDs. Each DVD will chip with a regular edition of the Tsubasa manga starting with volume 21 due for release on the 21st of November. The manga with the DVD (3360 Yen) will cost more than the manga without it (about 500 Yen).

    The best news though is that the amazing Production I.G. who animated the Tsubasa movie as well as the xxxHolic anime will be behind it!

    An official site has been created HERE.

    I'm hoping that people will actually buy these manga volumes instead of waiting for the Raw or Sub download. Projects like this are only made if they sell well and if we honestly want more Tsubasa anime this OAV has to sell well!

    The sales of the live action Sailor Moon DVDs sold so well that they gave the fans the special wedding Special Act and the Sailor V Act Zero. If Tokyo Revelations sells well enough it's fair to assume that (especially since the manga hasn't finished yet) more will be made.

    This OAV isn't going to be broadcast on TV. It's not up to viewers in Japan, it's up to how many copies sell.

    The first one comes with a box to hold all three DVDs and all the covers and box art will be done by CLAMP exclusively for the release. It's a great value purchase and will be at least two years before coming out in an English speaking version (if at all).

    I urge everyone to support this OAV. Please.

    Tsubasa OAV Announced! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Thanks to Chibiyuuto for the heads up! Turns out everyone's speculation was right! A Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle OAV ("Orginal Animation Video" or "Direct to DVD Movie/Series") is due for release next year entitled, "Tokyo Revelations"!

    Odds are it will be about the Tokyo / X arc in the manga which is right where the anime series left off.

    Strangely though it looks to be an exclusive for people who buy issues 21, 22 and 23 of the Japanese manga.

    No news on what animation studio is handling the work.

    I'll keep you posted on any updates! This is great news and I for one can't wait to see this thing!

    Update: In kind of related news, the NHK official site has updated their Faqs page concerning a third season. It's official folks! It's ain't happening! We do get this cool OAV though!!! :D

    Tsubasa, xxxHolic and CCS Ranking 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news CLAMP NOW has a cool report about a recent ranking released that says Card Captor Sakura is the 8th most popular anime in Japan (with readers of that specific magazine anyway).

    CCS Sakura was voted the 5th fave female anime character while her Tsubasa counterpart was just below her at 6th.

    CCS Syaoran was the 8th fave male character and his Tsubasa counterpart was way back in 22nd position.

    Kero was the 3rd fave mascot but Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Mokona got NUMBER 2! Woo!

    The Tsubasa anime itself was the 23rd fave and the xxxHolic anime, 25th.

    Yuko, the dimensional witch was the 16th fave female anime character.

    Pretty cool!

    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news In immediate news, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #16 has been given a release date of the 29th of January 2008 so if you like to get your preorders in early, knock yourself out!

    In cool news, Chibiyuuto has been piecing together some clues in her blog concerning a possible Tsubasa and xxxHolic anime (maybe an direct to DVD OAV?) in the near future. Still no official word, but there sure have been some interesting official clues.

    In site news, expect the review of the first DVD the day I get it and then the treakling in of several new subsections including a much needed world guide.

    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #15 Cover and DVD news! 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news The cover for Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #15 has been released so I've uploaded it to the Manga Page. It's one of my favourite covers in the series so far. The first to feature sakura flowers which is pretty unusual for CLAMP.

    In 8 days the first Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle DVD will be released! Woo Hoo! Amazon is still offering a 25% discount for all orders placed before the release date. You can get the regular DVD HERE and the "Starter Kit" which comes with the box HERE.

    I've already pre ordered mine! Can't wait!!!

    AnimeonDVD.com has already scored themselves a copy and have done a rather general review of it HERE. Well worth a look as it says what all the special features are (a LOT!) and that there is a 5.1 English surround audio mix!!! Can't wait to try this out! The Japanese DVD only had 2.0 surround.

    I was curious as to what the reviewer thought of the English speaking cast but he doesn't mention them at all.

    I'll have my copy in a week or so and will be reviewing it myself asap. Look forward to it!

    Tsubasa Manga Release Date Change and Guide Revamp 



    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news Finally got around to placing my nice Amazon.com pre order which included the first Tsubasa DVD (at a 25% discount! WOO!) and xxxHolic #9 among other things and was disappointed to see that Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #13 has been pushed back from a May release to the 12th of June! Not happy Jan!

    Completely revamped the Manga Shopping Guide tonight (check it out!) so updated all of the release dates and uploaded several new manga covers that have just been released.

    Speaking of covers, the cover for the second Tsubasa DVD has been released featuring Kurogane and Tomoyo. As will be the go from now on, I added it to the new DVD Shopping Guide.

    It's been a busy night!

    English Tsubasa Official Site Launch 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news The official site has just launched! Before there was just a static picture and some misc information but now we have a full fledged site with some great features worth check out!

    There's a great English trailer in the "Story" section (possibly voiced by Yuko?) and accurate character info on all the main characters including the English voice actors for each one.

    The "DVD Releases" page is worth a look as it reveals that there will be 6 DVDs for the first season and that the first DVD will have five episodes! This is great as the first Japanese DVD only had the first two episodes (what a rip-off, huh?).

    Something else worth mentioning is the fact that we now have an official English Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle discussion forum on the site which is pretty cool.

    (I LOVE the feather loading animation on the site!)

    This site is a great effort by Funimation. Am looking forward to the xxxHolic and movies sites.

    Not sure if this is the English dub or the Japanese but the early timeslot suggests the English version and with the English DVDs being released a few weeks later it makes a lot of sense.

    Tsubasa News Roundup 


    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle anime and manga news A better look at the DVD box artwork for the English, region 1 DVD release has been posted HERE. Looks like they're using artwork from the region 2 DVD covers instead of the artwork from the region 2 box.

    This kind of makes me happy as I've bought both Japanese region 2 boxes here in Tokyo and have been waiting for the region 1 dvds to fill them up with... but while the region 2 boxes feature unique artwork by CLAMP, the region 1 box looks more dynamic and some effort seems to have gone into designing it to make it look good on your shelf. The Japanese boxes meanwhile are just boxes with the CLAMP artwork slapped on them. No borders or frames at all and the title is slapped on the top of the box.

    The box will be released on the 22nd of May this year and can be pre ordered from Amazon HERE.

    I guess it's also worth mentioning that YesAsia has a Tsubasa Season One DVD Box which has Malay, Chinese and English subtitles for a rather cheap price. Be warned though as most English subtitles on Chinese DVDs suck and I for one will be getting the US region 1 dvds if only to hear what the characters sound like in English (Here's hoping the English Sakura isn't as annoying as the Japanese one!)

    CLAMP NOW has updated with heaps of CLAMP news and a first look at the artbook which is coming out soon. LOVE THE COVER! I'll be grabbing that baby on day of release for sure!

    And finally, CLAMP in Wonderland 2 premiers tomorrow in Tokyo! Woo!!!

    The Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Vol1 DVD Starter Set listing has been updated with a description that says the disk comes with a "memory box".

    Tsubasa Chronicle Second DVD Box 


    I grabbed the final Japanese Tsubasa Chronicle DVD this afternoon and LOVE the box that came with it! It's in a very similar design to the second xxxHolic anime box, it had to be intentional.

    I'll be doing an in depth review this weekend, but for now here's an edit of three photos I took of the box put together.

    Definitely better than the first box I think.

    Is it just me, or does Sakura look very Card Captor Sakuraish?

    Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle DVD News 


    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.

    First Tsubasa Chronicle DVD: "Gathering of Fates" 


    I decided to check the Amazon Tsubasa Chronicle page and was surprised to see the first DVD titled "Gathering of Fates".

    Interesting. None of the episode titles come close to this. Looks like they're giving each DVD their own name. As long as they number them, I'll be happy. The Card Captor Sakura DVDs are annoying as HELL because of all the "clever" titles they gave the disks. Whoever though viewers would like titles over disk numbers needs to be drug out in the street and shot.

    Tsubasa looks to be getting numbers though. Yay.

    Tsubasa Chronicle DVD Cover Revealed 


    The cover to the first Tsubasa Chronicle DVD has been released and you can see it on the right hand menu. Looks like they've kept the Region 2 (Japanese DVD) artwork though have replaced the title with the Del Ray manga version.

    No information yet on the box artwork though I'm assuming it will be the same as the Japanese. I'm kind of hoping for different artwork though as I already have the Region 2 box.

    Amazon has just just activated preorders for the first English Tsubasa Chronicle anime DVD due for release on the 22nd of May!!!

    No description is given though it's kind of a given that it will at least have both English and Japanese audio tracks and an English subtitle feature.

    The DVD is being released in two editions:

    The Regular DVD is selling for US$26.99 and the "Tsubasa Starter Set" (I'm guessing the first DVD and a box) is going for a little extra at US$35.99.

    An Oldie but a Goodie 


    Just found an old article at the ANN from October that listed Tsubasa Chronicle as the 53rd favourite anime series in Japan (of all time). Not amazing but not terrible when looking at the series it beat, Macross, Heidi (really popular), Full Metal Panic! (which was at 84) and Fruits Basket.

    Read the full list here.
