  • I cannot fathom it, honestly...
After watching episode 10, I am now feeling a little more hopeful in the anime. Seriously, the changes from the manga to anime irked me. I didn't like the Hanshin arc as much... but the latest arc, the Koryo (is that right? @.@) arc had the most interesting changes. I didn't like it at first, but now am slowly warming up to me. This anime has potential... you just have to wait until the end to totally give your review.

Until now, I'm flying back and forth. Loving and hating it... >.>

And yes, it is wrong to compare TRC with CCS. I like to think of TRC as a whole new creation using older characters in a great twist of defining different dimensions as pointed out in XXX-Holic. Which is what attracts me the most... the fact that there are other people out there, just like you, but because of different circumstances, is not like you.

I didn't like the Hanshin part, either because the animation was somewhat deviated from the Manga.  CLAMP's plot in the manga always contain something thoughtful (Except for the ending in Rg Veda, didn't see that massive bloodbath coming...   :shifty:).  That's why I think if the anime just followed the path where Syaoran would end up in Sorata's house in the first place like the manga did and have that puppet talk (I really like that puppet talk from Sorata), it would be more perfect than it is now.
So far, there are only two things disappointing me...
1. Mokona sounds more human...
2. They cut out some "vital" funny part that you can only find in the manga...

Everything else is good, but I'd still hope for more funny parts and Q- pic version of the characters<-- Those are good moments.

How can Mokona sound more human? As far as I can tell, he uses the same phrases...maybe you're just not used to hearing him speak, rather than imagining his voice?

I still realy like this series. Although I thought that the extra bit of Sakura and Syaoran entering the Ryan'ban's castle before the rest do was a bit pointless. Kawaii....but pointless, as they were going to end up there anyway later.

I really like TRC very much even though it's not yet read its manga or anime series(I watched 4 episodes yet)but hey,I just feel that there are some romantic moment that seen through it like Sakura+Syaoran in CCSakura!!:okay:

Well, so many people said it was bad from the first episode. to be honest that really didn't give it enough time. you can't really judge an episode by the first episode... thats a bit harsh

but now its moved on some people are saying its getting worse, but some say its getting better, so it seems there are pretty mixed opinions. which is good i guess. balence is good

personally I think an anime is sometimes (not always) what the viewer makes it. if in their heart they really feel they want to enjoy it... i think sometimes they will, dispite some small things which I know people have pointed out that are a tad out of line and not correct..

I am trying my best not to compare CCS to TRC. They are seperate, also you have to remember, the manga will always be so much better. the manga nearly always is. and anime will never follow the manga it came from completely. Even CCS didn't follow the manga. ack, there I go comparing again!  :sweatdrop:

anyway, basically, I am one of those sad fans who loves TRC so much that is really doesn't matter what mistakes they've made so far, I will always love it ^^;
however, I know that I will be upset if anything in the future is changed that I love. Please Bee Train! don't let us down!

Well, I love the manga, and while I haven't yet seen an episode of the anime I've seen enough screenshots and read enough episode summaries to be able to tell that they've changed quite a few things, for example, "Innocent Wanderer" which is the 2nd or 3rd episode in the Anime series, is COMPLETELY original to the anime . It does annoy me that they've changed so much , but as someone mentioned in an earlier post, they change things in ALL animes, so I guess all of us fans have to enjoy the anime for what it is and try to forgive them from diverging from the manga.....

For me, I like the anime, but the manga, in my opinion, is better. It goes more into depth with the characters and I wouldn't have known that Syaoran was blind in his right eye if I hadn't read the manga. They give notice to it in the anime, but they put more depth in the manga.

But in defense of the anime, each television company allows only so much airtime. It's for this reason that if they followed the manga word for word in the anime, they'd run out of time, so they, unfortunately, have to leave some of the minor details out. It is upsetting, but most likely the cost to run a show is more expensive than to write/draw a manga.

true.

for the blind thing, you can tell before kurogane mentions it.  syaoron gets slashed on the right arm and his right eye shows a glint. usually they dont animate or show things that are unimportant (animating is ,afterall, an expensive process).  his right eye is glass right

In the beggining, I wasn't too fond of TRC. I didn't want Sakura to loose her memories and to be a princess. But as I read more of the manga and saw more of the anime, I began to like it more. Now, I really like TRC, but I still prefer CCS.

To me...good or bad isn't an issue. I'm enjoying it lots. Are there better animes and could this one have been done better? Most likely however I'll still take it. As far as the manga/anime comparison, the manga is better, then again, I think the anime would be more boring if they repeated it exactly like the manga. They had to do some tweaking to make it worth watching. Whether you approve of the 'tweaking' is a matter of opinion :)

I agree with Arcademan/PixieP. If CLAMP copied the manga word for word, what would be the point of watching the series? You would always know what happened and that would be boring. Differences set things apart and make them unique!

I have mixed feelings about the anime.  I love it so far, but there are still spots here and there where I'm thinking, "Well, that could have gone better."
I guess my only complaint is the animation. It's great and all, but sometimes there will be a couple characters standing there looking comletely stiff. [The great example, the first episode where Touya and Yukito are talking in the castle and Touya looks like a cardboard cutout, even when he's talking, haha.] If they could get them to MOVE a bit, hehe.

The only thing that bothers me is how slow both the manga and anime are... Sorry, but we know nothing about Fai's relationship with Ashura or even Chii. (Whom he hasn't even mentioned..) We don't even know the purpose of his tattoo... And it hasn't even been hinted at except maybe twice. And I love Tomoyo, but they have been in that Piffle World (I don't know the name...) way too long...

I enjoy the anime. It's good, as far as I know. The manga has gone much farer according to what I've heard, in Japan.

Well, to me, the first few episodes of the anime weren't exactly great, but the episodes that were shown this past few weeks have compleatly changed my mind! Okay, so they're still not really as good as the manga, but they've gotten tons better, and I now always really look forward to watching it!

The Japanese version is one year ahead of the English translated version.
