Either way I am glad that what is done is done. The preview looked really interesting. I would like to see this new world go on for a few episodes myself. It would be nice to get more backstory on the two future lovers. ;) This episode was a bit touching when Sakura did the flashback and was talking to an empty chair. She knows that there is someone missing in her heart but doesn't know who it is yet. Ah the torture! Hopefully, by the end Sakura will remember Shaoran. Yeah I still use the other spelling. :roll:

Next few episodes will get a bit more touching. :wink:

Now there's a update in the ANN Encyclopedia for the upcoming Tsubasa movie. Here's the synopsis:
In their continuing journey to find the feathers that are the fragments of Sakura's lost memory, Syaoran, Kurogane, Fai, and Sakura move through time and space with Mokona. Here, they visit the "Land of the Birdcage," a seemingly peaceful country where people and birds live together, each person having a bird companion. After a boy named Koruri confuses Syaoran and Sakura for "bodyguards" and attacks them, they learn that the king of the country possesses a mysterious power. Princess Tomoyo, Koruri, and the other oppressed citizens, having had their birds taken from them, live in hiding within the forest. In order to take back Sakura's feather, Syaoran and the others stand up against the scheming king.
So the movie is basically another adventure only with better animation done by Production I.G. Not that I'm complaining. 8-)

Hmm, now is Koruri any part of the "CLAMP universe" or he's an original in the movie?

This was a nice Tsubasa today. It felt a little filler-ish but it brings characters closer together and gives a little more back story. I wonder what will happen next.

Ah, a new world and a new problem to solve (and given that this world is a bit European-esque, Bee Train "should" succeed since they already did two other series that take place in Europe)! :P
Awww, they cut out the funny part of how Syaoran and the gang got their new clothes. For anyone who didn't read manga, it involves Sakura's "gambling" skills! :lol:
All is made up by Mokona though!

I was wondering how that happend. Man I wish I had a Sakura in real life. So much potential. :twisted: I liked this episode. If it's not too focused on side characters I think I am happier. Either way I look forward to the next one.

That is pretty nice looking. Is it me or is Sakura looking a bit ghostly? :wink:

I guess we needed some comic relief somewhere. I must say...it's about damn time that Sakura got her feather back without the boys help. It makes her actually necessary for the journey. I don't know how she is in the manga but at least she isn't worthless...minus the whole gambling thing that we don't see often. I want to see how this one turns out.

Have you ever noticed that in the opening credits that a siloette of Sy(h)aoran is there before Sakura comes in and curls up? I just saw that and I was like "whoa I never saw that before."

Neat looking eh?

I for one, enjoyed Fai's goofy nature this round.
