Eight more days...!


Hello all!

Well, hello to at least myself, anyway. It seems I am the first to discover this board.

Anyway, as any obsessive fanboys/fangirls like me know, the 'Tsubasa Chronicle' movie is hitting Japanese theaters in only eight days! And, while it may be many years before us unfortunates in America get to see it (oh, what I would give to be Japanese...), anticipation is still high among fans of the manga and the currently running television series. With a wonderful cast, strong financial backing, and the animators of Production I.G. behind it, the half-hour 'Tsubasa Chronicle' movie may be some of the best animation of the year to come out of Japan. Ranking in at only the fourth CLAMP animated film ('X' and both 'Cardcaptor Sakura' movies came first), there are also many hopes that it will help to show the future of the most famous manga-ka in Japan. In addition, it is being shown with the 'xxxHolic' movie, thus making it one of (if not the) first 'crossover' film and story colaborations in anime. Lastly, it comes at a time of great prosperity for CLAMP, as they are celebrating fifteen long years of hard work and beautiful art and stories, and this sort of 'anniversary' film project is one of the crowning results.

Anyone else out there interested in the film (or the series for that matter, since it is not currently listed on the IMDb and won't be until they accept my submission in a month or so)? If you have any comments, concerns, or just want to chat, by all means join the conversation on this unique up-and-coming film! Also, I have a thread currently running over on the 'xxxHolic' page, so feel free to get involved there too!

Love and Peace!

A tad late, but.. oh well!

I accidently found this anime. While I've only watched the first two episodes, it seems pretty good. It has me wanting to know what happens next after one episode finishes, at least. Wouldn't mind seeing the movie, either! Now, if only it was in english..

YouTube has the movie up. Just do a search for it.

Season Two of the anime airs this month in Japan, so look for fansubs in a couple months.

Season One is available on DVD on Ebay (That's where I got my copy) and Tokyopop is still releasing the manga.

I have since seen all 26 episodes and the movie on YouTube. :D Any idea if they'll dub it in english? I'm just curious as to the types of voices etc the characters might end up with. And.. I also gave in and bought volumes 1, 2 and 3 of the manga. o.o

reply

Not sure when they'll dub it into English but I know Funimation licensed the anime or something. o_o That means it'll be hitting America sometime! ^^! Though I don't think anyone can beat the Japanese seiyuus... -Listens Tetsu Inada(Kurogane's Seiyuu) sing Zankou- Unless the English VA for Kurogane can sing just as well in his Kurogane-esque voice I'm going to prefer the Japanese xD. That was all off-topic.

Anyhow I hope that one day the Tsubasa movie will make it into theaters in America... though I've already seen it on my computer it would be great to see it on a large screen.

By the way Season Two of Tsubasa is starting in only a few days! Woo!
