i couldnt really watch the ep...to much reandmoness, bad animation and kurotomoness really, BUT i read the summery on that blog thing
http://randomc.animeblogger.net/2006/09/02/tsubasa-chronicle-43/

and i have a couple things to say....

those 5 vows he took to get the copy ginryuu...

1. He needs to act peacefully towards his comrades. 
2. He doesn’t commit an act of violence inside the castle.
3. He can’t forget mercy, even towards an enemy. 
4. He can’t handle someone’s life roughly. 
The fifth and final oath is that he must protect the people that he loves with his strength.

well i can definalty say he's broken a coupe of the,m, for sute...

summoning kuro's parents during this ceremony basicaly DESTROYS his character. he lost his paretns suddenly all in one knihgt. that is a life changing event. showing him that they passed on safely and HAPPILY basicaly would lift an EMENSE weight of his shoulder. bcuase he was probably blamming himself for their deaths in some way,
---
the thing about mokona sensing "a sparkly feeling from inside kurogane"
what in the... 
----
the guard PUPPY pwning kurogane... no comment.

there was a couple other things that seriouly irk me...

talking about kuro trying to pry into fai's past.... <_<
talking about the moment when syaoran went psycho...isnt there a rule that says you cant put PLOT into a filler? i thought fai sint suposed to "realize" that about him till their resting in tokyo... [IE him seeing the transformtion himself]

seriously, its a messed up episode all in all

[Smile_For_Me]

Its the anime, get over it, I like it realy, besides,

Show content

all those rules and he breaks almost all of them cracks me up, then that cute little lion with wings was so cute. Yes Bee train can make crap episodes, but this one I liked, other then the part showing kuro's parents as ghost.....I'm still waiting for CLAMP to pull a fast one on BT, by saying Kuro's daddy is still alive...haha, that'd be a good one.
Besides, I liked seeing Soma again, and seeing that cute little lion was so cute.

so people stop bashing BT all the time, they have their good points

[Tatasenko]

i have found an interesting article which proves that we are not the single one to think that Beetrain is doing a contestable work on Tsubasa  :
CLAMP themselves have expressed their dissatisfaction by telling that because of Beetrain's principles,many importants scenes were censured 
of course CLAMP have too much respect for claiming openly that they were angry against Beetrain,but we can guess that they were really disappointed

Good article! I knew Clamp coundn't be satisfied with the anime.

[Capella]

Hm, well I like the first half of this episode fine (the animation was having one of its good days, I think), but the second...

Like Sailor Yue said, it doesn't make sense that they try to make Kurogane at peace with his parents' deaths, when he clearly isn't.

Not too much to say, otherwise.

[Sailor Yue-chan]

by the way...the title of this episode is aparently "The Five Vows" O_o

[Jeannette]

As several others have said, my real problem with this episode is that they basically rape Kurogane's character by those flashbacks- otherwise, it's not incredibly bad.

[sanlyn]

Its a fun episode.... I got some good laugh.

Show content

The plot was Kurogane told Fai about the existence of syaoran alter-ego.  Fai suggested to peek into syaoran's past experience with the help of book of memory.  The problem was syaoran accidentally opened the page and his consciouseness was immersed into kurogane's memory.

Tomoyo kinda reminded me about Yuuko.... She told kurogane.... i'll give you the sword if you agreed to be my servant.... (of course, its only tomoyo teasing kuro)

Its a wise idea to used Spica as an insert song.  Its nice to hear something fresh from maaya herself.

[Airashii]

Ewww, Kurogane looks weird! http://randomc.animeblogger.net/image/Tsubasa%20Chronicle/Tsubasa%20Chronicle%20-%2043%20-%20Large%2004.jpg

OMG!!!OMG!!!!

he can't be Kurogane!!!!
*escapes away from that picture*

[Sailor Yue-chan]

like tatasenko mentioned ebfore...why is BT making so much work to perfect fai's look and only doing half the work on kurogane.
why cant we get the hotness of this comercial bump?

^{(^ click)}
albeit his eyes arent as red as they should be, atleast its a decent shot of him

despite the strangeness of the costume, IG's kuro looks hotter tehn BT's

[kudan]

Episode 18 (44) raw here. It's early this week.

[Meowzy]

I saw the preview for ep 19. Another filler. ~___~

[Sailor Yue-chan]

thers to be fillers till atleast 46...
47 ep is called 羽王カオス  hane ou kaosu
something about chaos...possibly tokyo> (or are my hope to high )

[Kjesta]

I'm not watching the anime anymore, just sometimes pieces of it if there's something I want to see BT do. Otherwise I merely read the threads about the episodes here *sigh*

[Jeannette]

Watched the new episode, 44- well, we've had worse fillers. Kero and Mokona were pretty cute together, even if it worries me somewhat to have a random filler with Kero in it- what if Kero shows up later in the series and plays an important role? Le sigh.

The next week is also filler-

Chun'yang shows up again? xd The world looks exactly like Koryo. But I don't think it's supposed to be Koryo.

[Sailor Yue-chan]

looking at the bloggy thingy it looks like a crack episode

[nefadol]

Crack.  I just noticed something, they didn't lose their original clothes in the anime. D:

that keeps happening. after leaving shura...in their war clothes into the chibiness crackity crack...they lost the war clothes and arrived in ther normal clothes...and after leaving lecourt in their fancy old english type clothes their again, back in their poriginal lothes... (so much for kurogane looking hot in the tattered white shirt in tokyo then T_T)

Eh, they probably have the "anime syndrome", lazy animators that don't let their characters do their laundry.  Hence why Yuuko wears the same outfit when she talks to them, unlike in the manga where it's normal clothes. >_>

[Sailor Yue-chan]

still, unless they make a world where they have to dress up again, we wont get to see kurogane in a singed tattered white dress shirt T_T.

tho, they MIGHT have him change into one when their given the heavy rain coats, like fai did with that black turtleneck <_<

Sorry for all the mistakes... (even spelling )

[tsuki]

thankz Anime4you!!  ^__^   *downloading*

[Sailor Yue-chan]

cool job. *doesnt watch the kurogane character rape*
im sticking to my guns. the only other episode i will watch is the kerochan episode.

[Zettai daijoubu]

another filler episode but it's quite a good one.. it had me panicking for the group's safety especially when the search team was closing on them.. but the lion suddenly turned into a cute harmless little one which was so -.-""" it's cute lahz.. hahax.. and why did it choose kuro over syaoran?!?!

it was a good idea to know Syaoran's past through the book too! smart fay!!! but it failed coz kuro opened it first.. -.-""" but nevertheless it's quite good..

i can't wait for episode 18 to be subbed.. Kero-chan.. OMGOMG.. that little orange thing..

[Sailor Yue-chan]

that talk about mokona sensing a "sparkly feeling inside kurogane" still creeps me out somewhat... and how it coinsiddes exact;y when syaoran is watchjing when young kuro swears his loyalty etc...its too..wrong. (i have not watched this episode...i only read the bloggy thing)
