Here we are, the first Tsubasa anime original episode... and boy did I wish they just stuck to the manga and that this one off world only lasted for one episode! All the characters were written as stereotypes of themselves (sometimes to the extreme in the case of Faye and Kurogane), the animation was B grade at best and the design and feel of this world was just "blah".

Here we have an anime with the concept that every episode can be an entorely different world, with different characters and what do we get? Uninspired sword fights (they look like kids playing with cardboard swords) and the two most boring supporting characters ever to meet our gang.

This episode was just lazy. They could have done anything but instead we just got CRAP. Sorry, but there is nothing in this ep that is honestly worth watching. Skip it. :protest:

I dunno, I kinda liked it :/

The Wolf's Rain cameo was fun :D They completely ripped off the animation style.

Aw...it wasn't that bad.  :sweatdrop:
The art was great; just wish they would put in more action.
Was that a new version of the 'tsubasa' song I heard?  :keke:
Hehe, the time Kurogane and Fai were facing each other was funny XD
Looks like they based the ruin structure on the mayan ruins. ...cool.
Keefer looked a lot like Syaoran..was it because of his eyes?

Overall, the episode was okay. I'll give it 3 stars out of 5.
I really want to see the next episode!  :greengrin: They're finally going to Outo!

I noticed that too. The Tsubasa song in this ep was in JAPANESE! The ones in the other eps are in English. Sounds a lot better in Japanese I think.  :wink:

i thought this episode was great!

i love the 'fighting' scenes between Fye and Kurogane.. it was so funny! i guess Kuro-san finally meets his match in terms of fighting!

yeah, like Okamirei-san, i agree that Keefer looked like Syaoran and Charme looked like Sakura.. or is this just me?

the "Tsubasa" song, i prefer the english version... the jap version sounds a little weird..

Heh, I like this episode.  :okay:  When I first saw the preview from last week, i thought Kurogane knows how to use their Zolo Thunder ability, but apparently he just got electricuted and just attacking will still being "paralyzed" when he said he wasn't  :surprised:

hehe Fai and Kurogane's fight was funny!   :hello2: :greengrin: too bad nobody won.  :hmp:

Keefer fighting to save  Charme's life? Heh, I really think that the temple guy at the beginning really meant to grant her wish. I mean, didn't Keefer's desire to save her life bring those two together? Because at the end, it was :inlove:  .

I want wait for Outo! (Or Oto however you spell it) :haha:

I enjoyed this episode ^^ Seeing 2 men (Syaoran and Keefer) both with strong hearts and with the same objectives (save the women they cherish the most) facing one another in a fight was moving for me. I do feel though this world segment was a bit rushed, but then again it IS a filler episode ^^ None the less, I still liked it~

I don't know about you guys but I loved this episode.  ^^  You really can't blame Bee Train for adding fillers and other stuff because TRC is going to be lasting for a full 3 seasons so its understandable.  Kurogane and Fai were absolutely wonderful.  Made me squee so damn much that my neighbors bothered to come over and check if anything was wrong with me....:P

Keefer really did look like Syaoran.  At first when the episode started I was like, "WTF?!  What's going on?!?!" but soon realized it was a filler.  Awesome.  xD  The animation could be better but its pretty decent.  When I first noticed Keefer I thought he was like a past Syaoran or something and Charme was a past Sakura (her personality reminds me of Sakura).  Turns out I'm wrong..lol

The episode is pointless but overall good.  The expressions and everything made me so happy and Sakura doesn't seem to be so useless anymore.  Well...kindof.  xP  Kuro and Fai's fight was my favorite...omfg.  WHEEE!!!  XDD  Any Kuro x Fai fan would be happy.  Aww...loved it.  Wow, Bee Train has overall done a good job and that's...scary.  lmao.

The only thing bothering me right now from all the episodes is their ears.  OMG.  So damn big...XPP  Oh yeah and Syaoran and Keefer's fight was great.  DAMN.  Syaoran is like the best....[glomps over...and over...and over...]  <333  lmfao.  One more thing  I'd like to point out, doesn't the country of...wherever they are look like Akrabah (From the disney story/movie Aladdin).  Weird and forgive my mispelling on Akrabah...^^;;;

Hmmm....and I can't wait for the next episode.  ^__^  Sakura is a maid dress is just SO kawaii...omg.  If only Syaoran would... :heh:

Hm.  The episode is pretty good, even if it's a filler.  The country seemed kind of boring to me, and bland.  The fighting with wooden swords saddened me and did not surprise me when Kurogane fought.  The two supporting characters scared me very much.  They acted almost exactly like Syaoran and Sakura, the two love birds who can't only think of each other.  I am never too fond of cheesy romances.   :dodge:
But Bee Train is getting better.  The animation looked better than previous animations and the characters had more emotions than before (I was very amazed when Fai looked so serious in the end.  About time they showed that Fai has some angst).  They even added those Kurogane x Fai hints they left out before.  My inner kurofai fangirl squealed so much.  Best of all, they didn't focus so much on Sakura and/or Syaoran and/or their love for each other. 
The next episode looks even more promising!   :okay:  There's blood, the clothes look nice, and they still have the cross over characters!  I hope they still have Drunk!Fai along with Drunk!Sakura and Drunk!Syaoran and they little line from Fai that made Kurofai fangirls scream in delight.  OH!  and CLAMP's cats too!

"...I'm also pretty sure that he and Fai aren't going to go skipping off together into the sunset at the end of the manga, either. I think it's possible that they may end up... together... somewhere... but I don't think there'll be any wedding dresses involved. Tragically. I bet CLAMP would draw a really nice wedding dress for Fai, too, with those embroidered flower things all over it... gaaaaaaahhhh... [ *drooling* ]..."

i liked this episode for a filler!!  :hello2:
One thing to notice from the start was the animation that was drawn was top notch (much better than previous ones!! :keke:) Syaoran and Sakura looked beaut--iful!!!  :inlove:

The fights i enjoyed a lot, Fai and kurogane fight was hilarious- awwww :laughing4: It was done greatly in my opinion!
I also loved keefer and syaoran's fight- that was excellence! the music adapted very well!!! awww!!  :inlove: From the preview i actually thought keefer was syaoran in the new world with a funky costume!  :sweatdrop: anyways....
yeah, this episode i like a lot!
The art was great, animation, the storyline was okay, the music was great, but one critism- more s and s moments needed!!!  But that was okay since keefer and charme's romance was suffice! it was like looking at sakura and syaoran.  :inlove: :inlove:

Nxt eppie!!  :hello2:

I think I only like the filler episodes ROFL, because I thought this episode was really cute, it sorta reminded me of the episode where it was all about Sakura's kindness and now its all about Syaoran's, lol, but I like it.

Keefer looked almost identicle to Syaoran, ROFL, when he was holding that lady's hand, the one with the curse *forgot her name* I was about to say: "SYAORAN You CHEATER!" :sweatdrop:

I thought the KuroFai fight scene was cool too, lmao, Fai is so adorable. Also, who wouldn't want to see Fai's face? Kuro-pii should know that Fai is too hawt to have his face covered up :lol:

All in all, I liked this episode, and OTOU HERE WE COME! LOL
