CLAMP's Famous Works > Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
Oh. My. God. *le scream*
nefadol:
Difference between xxxHolic and Tsubasa, xxxHolic has a member of CLAMP on the staff overseeing the anime (even writing scripts). Its animation may be a bit wonky at times and they cut out some references, but overall it's pretty spot on. Tsubasa isn't so fortunate. Perhaps it's because of Tsubasa that they're so hands on with xxxHolic?.

Ugh, I had my friend Leona translate it for me since I was curious and she's Japanese and knows these things <3. Here's what she said (it's of the main paragraph):
The true strength Tomoyo-Hime showed to Kurogane in his childhood.
Wherever had that unapprochable Kurogane at the start go? He now has a "father" figure in the party (mostly because of Fai) but Kurogane's core characteristics haven't changed. He is still the independant man - the man who belives and trust his own strength.
So it is a question as to why Kurogane has such loyalty to Tomoyo-Hime. It is not like he was raised to have loyalty for her and even if he had been, it's unlikely that Kurogane would be loyal for just that reason.
Of all the things that Kurogane wants to have and puts great value on is "strength". To get the loyalty and respect from Kurogane, it is vital that one has more strength than the man himself. In other words, it is because Kurogane sees such "strength" in Tomoyo-Hime that he gives his loyalty to her.
When his parents died and went ouf of control from the sadness of the event, Tomoyo had risked her own life to stop Kurogane. She could have just beated him to stop acting outrageous but she didn't. She, instead, used words and feelings to calm Kurogane down. If she had been afraid of Kurogane, she might have used force to put him down. Because she had mental strength on top of physical power, she was able to be considerate of Kurogane.
That is why there are the loyalty and the respect. And Kurogane believes that Tomoyo-Hime will lead him to achieve the 'true strength'. It is not a master-and-commander relationship that ties the two together; it's trust.
What the !&%@ is BeeTrain thinking? Kurogane believes that Tomoyo will lead him to achieve true strength? Why wasn't I informed of this  :dodge: *sigh*

Well, she is pointing him to his true strength in a way- she sent him to where Fai was!

--- Quote from: Kirtai on August 18 2006, 08:08 am ---Ahem. Has anyone watched the Full Moon anime? Now that's blatant disrespect for the original subject matter. So, I think it would be alot better for everyone's blood pressure if we all just consider the anime to be a totally different thing than the manga. Continue to love the manga, and watch the anime to pick out bits good for use in music videos. It is a shame that they couldn't animate it awesomely, but they didn't. They suck. However, if they want to make KuroxTomo canon in their world, they can, and all we can do is whine about it. It doesn't change the fact that in the original authors vision, he is gayer than liberace.
*also bricked*

I thought the anime for Full Moon was pretty good. Sure, the way it ended was completely different and they didn't dwelve into the characters as much... but I found the characters in the anime more likeable than in the manga. In the manga, I felt very distant from the characters... except for Izumi. So I don't consider that as disrespect... it all depends on other people's opinions.
As for the KuroTomo thing... *waves the KuroTomo flag with Kuro Puppy* A-hem. That aside, this does NOT mean that we KuroTomo fans see it as more proof than KuroFye. Well, at least for me... because what's going on in the manga seems to lean more towards KuroFye. If the anime were to make it KuroTomo, well... that does NOT mean it's the end of KuroFye, isn't it? We still have the manga!
So... yeah... I just don't like the fact that you guys are seeing this as a bad thing... ^^;;; Cause even though I'm a KuroTomo fan, it'll take more than that article to prove that it's canon. And for me, I'm not interested in canon anymore. >_< Sorry.
