Maybe that'll change once I've read X but at the moment I just want them to make place for Sakura, Syaoran, Mokona and lots of KuroFai smex moments.[/spoiler]

I agree. I'm sure that those who read X are in fangirl heaven, having gone without for so long, so I am happy to let them enjoy the X-ness, but I would like to move on soon, as I find them boring, not having read X myself. The chapters rely on a context that I don't have.
Well, that's the point of the series, isn't it? Reward fans that have read all CLAMP works, and tempt/shame/goad those who haven't to buy more! I must admit, in the 6 months or so that they've been in Tokyo, I have thought about buying X more than once, and I am buying Tokyo Babylon!
But, I want more TRC-ness. I want Fai to wake up! I am anxious to see how vampirism and alll will affect the cheerful Fai we knew before! I'm not crying from the lack of KuroxFai in recent chappies, I'm still good on that, but Fai has been out cold for 10 chapters now. That's more than 3 months since Fai has spoken, except, "no, let me die." Wake up!

Well as someone who has been waiting for this plot point since I have been reading the manga. I disagree. :P Don't worry CLAMP will get back to Kuro/Fai soon..
Back to lurking
Snow-chan:
:okay: Sakura, she is getting where we have been waiting for her to get. Show contentThe determined look suits her best, the more I see it, the more beautiful I think she is. I guess it makes even a strange sense - from her CCS self we know she is supposed to be plucky and everyone is more pretty when they can be what they truly are like.
I can vaguely (still, going to try and read Volume 3 of X today) squee for the Fabulous Four. They have gotten a lot of page-time right now but all in all it is still this one volume, it only seems SO long due to the gaps we have to endure. When read in book form, the overall impression, I think, will be a good balanced mix.
The reserved Syaoran is very much to my taste. To be accepted into the company of Sakura and co would mean much to him (until he can somehow get to his Sakura?!).
*Fai, wake up!*
I wonder how many chapters still in Tokyo - four, five??
Emiko:
I absolutely love Sakura in this chapter. I'm so proud of her.
Show contentI'm so glad Clamp is letting her do something now. I had my reservations at first, but I'm extremely glad that so far Sakura has proven me wrong. She looks so cool and she kicks butt without it being unrealistic. Like, there was no 'Sakura-suddenly-knows-how-to-fight'-ness. She's so beautiful in this chapter, I agree.
Her new outfit still owns. Seriously. Sakura Croft is right.

I took Fuuma's comment to mean two things: 1) he was joking since often in mangas anyone over 22 is old and 2)he was trying to get some sympathy from Subaru by making him feel guilty.
If you remember back in Outo, Seishirou didn't seem that old (I thought he seemed younger there than in X and TB). And he can't be that much older than Fuuma since they're siblings; even if their parents had Seishirou when they were young and Fuuma when they were old there can only be a limited gap between them.

Ah, that makes sense, interpreting it that way, looking at Fuuma's face. When I read the translation I wasn't looking at the scans- that's the best excuse I can offer. xdxd
Even though I don't mind all this about them (we've been waiting long enough for it dammit!) I can understand why people are sick of the X characters; honestly, I'd love Fai to WAKE UP DAMMIT. *coughcough*
If I didn't say this before, Sakura rocks. I'm SO glad she's actually doing something for once.
