This episode was interesting as Saoran and the gang arrive in their second world. The main concepts of the series have been introduced so the story kicks of straight away and judging from the preview for Episode 8, I'm guessing this arc will only go for about 3, maybe 4 episodes! Great stuff. A much faster pace so far than the Hanshin arc which was starting to bore a LOT of people.

Something that really impressed me with this episode was the new music themes! Almost all the music was new for this world and those bits that were used from the Hanshin arc where given a slight twist to suit the new, ancient Korean world. i.e. some oriental strings added.

Animation was top notch, no wierd looking Mokona like last week, though Sakura is really annoying me now. It's like they're going for the "She's so quiet and worried... that means she's deep and cool!" but it's just pissing me off. I don't know why but the voice actress sure isn't helping.

No major deviations from the manga that I can remember. Didn't catch Miyuki, though will double check this evening.

Was that Sorata and Arashi in the preview?

i think it was.. i was like COOL when i saw them too

ok i only saw the RAW and i dont' really get everything.. but i'm downloading the sub right now..

this episode's ending was pretty sad for that little girl.. umm i don't remember her name.. how her mom's fan was destroyed.. *sigh

AH!! sakura seems so helpless and no offense. umm useless.. haha.. syaoran is doing to major a** kicking.. LMAO!! he's protecting sakura like every 5 minutes.. haha sakura is just standing there smiling.. haha

where did fai and kurogane go in the end of the episode?? what the.. haha they just disappeared.. wasn't it the house they were fixing before ?__? haha i guess i didn't get it because i kept on fastforwarding it.. HAHA.. i was like i'll watch the subb and get everything later.. well i guess i really have to watch the sub now..

.::ka::. · « **Reply #4 on:** May 23 2005, 12:20 am »

Yeah, Sakura didn't like that, right ? I hate how they make a useless/helpless

But look like she's going to go to the castle for Chunyan then got stuck in it and Syaoran's going to save her ^^" Old story ^^"

Anyways, the epi was good ^^ I really like the scence when they destroy Chunyan'smother's fan, really really sad... It make sad more than the scense I suppose to be sad ^^" ( where Sakura asked Syaoran who was he)
Ah, the scence that Sakura asks Syaoran to call her by name is cute too ^^ Of course, it's SS moments

But, excuse me, what's different between "Syaoran-kun" and" Syaoran" ?!

MysticMog · « **Reply #5 on:** May 23 2005, 12:43 am »

Yep, poor Sakura. Compared to her CCS counter-part, she is kind of helpless in this anime

. Downloading sub right now, so I'll be able to see this episode soon.

.::ka::. · « **Reply #6 on:** May 23 2005, 01:42 am »

In epi 7 Fye said: " ...We can't get the true Sakura until her memories get back..."
Okay, let us believe in Fye :p... I don't think the true Sakura is weak, useless ore helpless.....

Sakura-chan GO GO GO !!

bLuetopaz · « **Reply #7 on:** May 23 2005, 05:40 am »

*lol*
Syaoran's flying kick was so cool!! wish i can get into the anime and give that bad guy the flying kick as well!

Fye and Kuropuu/Kuropipi were funny as usual.. and im starting to like them more!!

the scene where they showed Chun Hyang's mother's fan being destroyed.. its kinda sad.. again, i wanna give the bad guy another flying kick... so evil of them...

probably Sakura just woke up from her sleep.. so she's kinda in a daze.. hopefully, by the next episode or with the next feather found.. she will show more expressions..

Sya0ran · « **Reply #8 on:** May 23 2005, 07:51 am »

I loved this episode. ^^ Some little things annoy me like some of their facial expressions and actions. It followed the manga very well and I loved Syaoran's flying kick! How cute. I saw this episode right after I read my TRC Volume 3 too (same chapters and events going on). lol

It was so cute how Sakura and Syaoran still had those same dot-eyed expressions when Chunyan first brought them to her house. (like this "._.") XDD And Mokona's little actof being a sage and going "ka ka ka ka ka ka" or whatever was funny. I'm glad the anime is getting better as we go along. =D The moment Fai said "And that's Kuro-puu" I started cracking up. Also when he said "Kuro-pipi"...socute. xDD

I love Fai's seiyuu!! The way he said Kuro-puu was so damn hott!!! Rofl. I didn't like the part though of when we first see Syaoran and Sakura and the camera/animation angled them sideways. They looked so damn skinny. I knew they were skinny however but I paid no mind to it but now...geez. Lol

I also loved the part when Sakura got all four of the yellow balls. Everyone's expressions were priceless. lmao. They changed the game from the original manga but its fine. I'll live.

Overall, the episode was great. Nothing too spectacular to point out, just that it was fine.

Sakaki · « **Reply #9 on:** May 23 2005, 11:34 am »

I really liked this episode too.
I think that Fai's animation was good and we are getting to see more of his personality. A couple close ups on him being serious were just awesome.

This episode had some great action with Syaoran fighting and I loved Kuro-chi
and Fai's exclamations when Syaoran kicked butt!
And Kuro-puu's yelling at Fai while he was fixing the roof was really cute.

Can't wait to see them face off with the Shinban woman.

Okamirei · « **Reply #10 on:** May 23 2005, 11:44 am »

This epi was awsome!!

Chuyn Yuan is so cute^^. Syaoran kicked major butt XD The background music was nice, same with the animation.^^
Wish they did the dice part though...

MysticMog · « **Reply #11 on:** May 23 2005, 01:07 pm »

Watched the episode, Syaoran kicked some ***

. Good episode overall. Loved seeing the same dotted eyes as we grew to love from CCS

. Hope to see some more action in coming episodes though. (Shougo & Syaoran fight from episode 6 was lame

)

But, excuse me, what's different between "Syaoran-kun" and" Syaoran" ?!

Sakura calling Syaoran by his name without honorifics simply means "he's worth a lot to her".

Attaching the "-kun" after it would either mean, "hey, I juz met you so I'll call you by your name politely."

lika-chi · « **Reply #13 on:** May 23 2005, 02:42 pm »

someone asked what's the difference betweeen syaoran-kun and syaoran is right??

well i'm not sure but in japan there have a lot of traditions or something.. an example would be like if you just met someone, you would call them by their last names.. ie.. kinomoto-san or lee-kun.. something like that

and then after a while they would become closer friends and call each other by their friend name like sakura-chan, syaoran-kun

and basically the 'kun' part is like manners i guess.. i think for someone to just say syaoran, syaoran tells them they can.. probably like family or really close people. so like girl-freinds and boy-friends.. or just really close friends..

i'm not really sure if that helped you understand this but this is what i get from watching a bunch of animes.. basically the endings are being polite and just calling people's names.. something like how in english you would call an adult.. Mr. (name) or Miss. (name).. etc.. hope this helped you.. hehe.. i doubt it did though.. *sigh

Bao_Nhia_Yang · « **Reply #14 on:** May 23 2005, 05:06 pm »

WOO HOO!! syaoran can kick butt!! oh yea! that's what they get for messing with OUR syaoran!

muahahhaha.. um.. anyhow... it gets better and better!! but then... the part when syaoran was fighting the soldiers from chunyan's mother's fan.... the fight scene wasn't all that great... he was just standing there... twist kick twist kick.. end! WHIRLWIND! that's all...

windytree · « **Reply #15 on:** May 23 2005, 06:19 pm »

This part of the storyline is a crossover from another one of CLAMP's work, Shin Shunkaden (also known as The Legend of Chun Hyang), which is based off a Korean folktale. It may look Chinese since well, a lot of Korean culture has its roots in Chinese culture to begin with.

Episode 7: Cracked memory

Okay, here we go:

Syaoran's kick:

*raises sign "10"* Nice!

SD Sakura and Syaoran: Ah! I thought I would never see this! See?

Mokona's version of Mito Koumon: Wah! Fay and Kuropii together with Mokona with costumes is sooo cuuute!

Everyone shocked: Whee! Another one:

Flashback of Young Sakura and Syaoran: Wai! So Kawaii!

Syaoran's battle: Yeah! Syaoran kicks shadow-ninja-whatever a** !

Tornado on Syaoran: Oi! That's cheating!

Chun Hyang: I feel so sorry for her.

Random comments:

Why does Syaoran always have a blank face when facing enemies? Show a little more emotion, grrr.

Can that big guy even balance himself?

Overall: Good one!

Bao_Nhia_Yang · « **Reply #22 on:** May 24 2005, 03:08 pm »

i agree.. i noticed it too.. syaoran always have a serious looking face when he's fighting... cause he's got something to be done? i dont know.. but he's always like that tho.. :S.. which i thought was weird.. think's he tough guy..

.::ka::. · « **Reply #23 on:** May 24 2005, 03:12 pm »

Yeah, same face when battle ~> Scary guy >.<
I don't know why they made Syaoran like that, but seems like it look-a-like another Syaoran , i think

angel · « **Reply #24 on:** May 24 2005, 07:40 pm »

woot.. another not bad episode... following the manga quite well... though some parts r added... but it ok wif those additional scences... GOODNESS OF THIS EPIDOSE: i liked in tis episode is syaron kicking.... and also mokena imitating the erm Mito Koumon?? well not sure but it very very cute... and also in tis episode none of the characters r drawn way too weirdly...

Hikaru · « **Reply #25 on:** May 25 2005, 07:09 am »

OMG! I loved this chapter, I think I laughed more than with the other ones. It had very good moments, (raise your hand if you love Fighter!Syaoran ). And any scene that includes an angry Kurogane and a laid-back Fay is always good for me. I felt this chapter move faster (maybe because all of the other kingdome's chapters). And the music, I felt it was the best music of all chapters yet.

Sakura can win random games! I think she's related to Walt from LOST!

does CLAMP think of the games out of nowhere? or are they actual games in Japan/Korea?

The game that Sakura played in the anime is actually pretty common. It's a bit like a raffle, when a store wants to have a special promotion to advertise a new product, celebrate an anniversary, etc. They have that game at the Japanese stores that I visit here in NY and depending on what color of the ball that you get, it corresponds to a certain prize.

scarecrow_wingz · « **Reply #32 on:** May 29 2005, 02:04 pm »

yah! i can finally participate in the discussions...

in general i think the entire anime is a little slow...sometimes the 'camera' focuses too long on a face before it reacts, i think it was in this episode...fye/fai was talking to kurogane about sakura and he looked (his art/drawing) looked a bit weird...i dunno if anyone noticed

when i first read the manga i thought the same thing - that sakura was so useless...it's infuriating isn't it? but yes, like fye/fai said...she doesn't have enough feathers.

jovi206 · « **Reply #33 on:** June 23 2005, 04:35 am »

this episode was good . did anybody pick up on sakura really looking at syaoran when he kicked the guy for her and then after looking at him when he ofers to help out. Yeah ! even if she does not remember him she still senses something hopefullly....
