Show content1. How could anyone see it this early?
2. Yuuko implied that Fai would refuse to feed at first. I'm kinda thinking that Fai is just going to deprive himself of it. (Though, admittedly, maybe he'll refuse but occasionally be taken over by the need to feed? Or something?)
3. Subaru seemed to think Fai needed to sleep. Since Subaru's all "this was my fault, woe", I don't think he'd mislead them or neglect to mention such a significant potential side-effect. Nor would Yuuko, I think (though if it turns out to be true, Kurogane's gonna be all pissed that JUST when he was starting to trust her she omitted something like that XD). So I think that, while a Fai!attack is not completely out-of-the-question, I don't know if it will be needed this soon.
4. Didn't Fai just drink blood? Would he need more so soon (or was that bit of blood just a taste, since more of it seemed to splash down his face anyway?)

I agree with you on the first 3, but as for the 4th: Show contentIt seems common in vampire lore that when one is changed, the first instinct once waking up is the instinct to feed. The first taste of blood induces the change, and is not seen as feeding blood. I don't know how much vampire lore CLAMP knows, and I don't know if this is common in Japanese vampire manga, as I haven't actually seen vampires in manga get changed, but it could possibly me that.
I think part of the problem with the spoilers is the verb usage. Attack implies hate or anger.
I put the spoiler tag just in case. ^_^

I am both dreading and awaiting the Tokyo arc in the anime. It is going to be ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE, but if they do keep in any of the things that are even mildly dark or intense, I'd really like to see how well Daisuke Namikawa and Tetsu Inada do. It shall be a test on their skillz, to be sure.
Kjesta:
Something that just occured to me while reading your discussion: why's the blood gone? *mimicks Jack Sparrow* There was a certain amount of blood running down his cheeks and chin in the last page of 125, so why aren't there any stains or traces in this one? Not that I'd care that much, it's just a little confusing.

I'm sure they'll do just fine! Ater all, Japanese VA's belong to the best in the world, they probably are the best. And up to now, I've never been disappointed by a Japanese seiyuu, so I'm really looking forward to that scene. (Let's hope they don't screw up the X arc, though chances are small.)

Because Clamp is bad with knowing where their blood is. I remember one scene in X where Seishirou puts his bloody hand on Subaru's cheek, he takes it away and there's no blood on that side of his face. Same as when he was smoking a cigarette with a bloody hand and there was no blood on the filter afterwards. It's one of their inconsistencies. -_-

I've heard a few seiyuu that have been only okay, which can be disappointing depending on what kind fo character they're voicing, but I don't think I've come across any that have been actually bad. I just hope they'll be able to pull it off, is all.
Edited because I don't like the smilies. D:
