And that's not just me seeing thinga, because he/she is naked, and it's quite clear. So femmy Ashura is fine.

Wait, WHAT? They did establish a gender for Ashura in RG Veda - or rather, it was made very clear that Ashura was genderless. Thus, Ashura + breasts does not compute. Is this the Tsubasa character guide you're talking about?
Sorry for the OT. The torrent's not working for me either, so I can't comment on the episode.
Jeannette:
The raw for this episode is up on YouTube here, for those who are having trouble with the torrent. I have to say, the animation was better in this episode that in last episode. It was cool seeing Kurogane and Fai in Yasha Clan mode too. ^_^ I so want to know what the heck happened between the two of them while they were separated from the others. And Yasha making emo googly eyes at Ashura... *snif* XD They are such a cute couple, and I'm so glad that they aren't nearly as creepy a couple in TRC as they were in RG Veda.
Jenx:
Yeah, in the character guide. I'd scan it if my cat hadn't pissed on it. Stupid beast. So if they have shots of flat-chested Ashura in the episode, and he's female in the character guide, and genderless inRG Veda...
....Maybe he's a were-woman, and grows boobs on the night of the full moon. DX Hell if I know. Thanks for the link, Jeanette!
Capella:
Yes, thank you for the link, Jeannette.
Not having watched any other part of the anime (I'm just watching this part for Yasha and Ashura), I can't really say how it compares...Lots of the animation looks really lazy, though. Bee Train is capable of some very pretty animation, so that makes it worse, I think. The fighting looked good, though, and the jazzy Song of Storm and Fire was nice. I didn't think Ashura looked too feminine most of the time (maybe a bit in the beginning). I liked his/her voice - does anyone know who that was?

Mm, I agree. Though I don't think they're that creepy in RG Veda - the situation is sort of creepy, but they just...aren't creepy people. If that made any sense. How long did they spend staring at each other at the end, anyway? I found it rather amusing.

Hahaha, maybe that's it. Now I have to get a look at the character guide...
Meowzy:
were-woman. heheh... That does kinda fit.
Syaoran: Oh look, it's a full moon!
Ashura: Ah! Excuse me for a second...
*Ashura flees from the room*
*long silence*
*evil roaring can be heard from the hallway*
Syaoran: O__O
Ashura's voice from the hallway: EEEEK! My dress tore apart!
Syaoran: Uhm... I don't think I wanna know. ^^'
