I agree, poor R!Syaoran. It makes me feel so sad for him. I mean, first he was stuck on a tube and lonely, watching other people smile, and then when he gets out, you have this awkward tension between said people. I mean, Mokona is the only one who's making an effort on really talking with him. Not to mention, you see R! Syaoran far away and aloof from the group of Kuro, Fai, Subaru, Fuuma, and Kamui. Even with Sakura, there seems to be some awkwardness (That's probably cause of C!Syaoran though). He's maybe hoping to get accepted, just not to be C!Syaoran's replacement, just for him. But for now, he's like keeping his distance.
I think CLAMP has R!Syaoran there to make up for C!Syaoran, since Syaoran is the MC, so he has to be a presence somehow. I wonder when is CLAMP finally gonna show who is he? To put this Syaoran Li = R!Syaoran to rest. Not that it matters, I love both anyway.
That little jip with Kamui, Subaru, and Kamui made me giggle in my tummy, for some reason.
As for Sakura Croft, as someone above said, is "meh" to me. Glad she's doing something, but I'm honestly not that impressed and overexcited of it either, it felt average to me. Don't get me wrong, I love the girl (In truth, I think her kind of like a Mary-Sue, the only flaw I could find is her denseness, that I think just adds to her character and cuteness, and waking up late, and being the most powerful magician at age 10 is the cherry on top. Though Japan has this love of perfection...). Is just that I focused enough on CCS with her, now in TRC I'm looking to focus on other characters that need a chance, especially ones who took a backseat to Sakura, like Syaoran, the many Tomoyos, and the new ones, Fai and Kurogane. Plus Mokona! If R! Syaoran is maybe THE Syaoran Li, then there's no contest on who he will like better between Mokona and Kero.
*gets shot*
