So you're saying it ruined or diminished the viewing experience for you?

It's the opposite for me; the absurd proportions (there were a few scenes where they outright deformed the characters beyond recognition) greatly enhanced the feel of the movie. I didn't miss the fact that they looked like spidery apes sometimes, and I liked it.

After all, everyone's pretty damn weird.

With those fingers I just hope Yuuko doesn't became a proctologist ...

The movie was. amazing.

I haven't watched anime in ages, but the art was simply gorgeous. Usually I find myself checking the time with an episode or OVA or whatever, but I'm actually sad that the movie finished. If only it had been a bit longer.

Now I'm interested in both this and Tsubasa Chronicle ;_;

The movie is very good, too bad my enjoyment is decreased because the file from place where I rent the anime from somewhat corrupted and there are lot of skippings (damn!!)

anyway, the soundtracks are good, so is the surrealism in the movie. This movie is far better than Tsubasa the Movie. Anyone knows the direct dl for the movie?

The raw of the first TV episode is out.

The art looks almost exactly like the movie's, and the lower budget isn't immediately noticeable. The story starts from the very beginning this time, describing how Yuuko and Watanuki meet. There's a few brilliantly scripted scenes (such as Yuuko haughtily slapping Watanuki's hand when he asks for his pocketwatch). Also, the opening sequence (with a Suga Shikao rock song) just exudes coolness. I like how this is turning out.

I was starting to wonder if anybody was ever gonna put up a torrent, RAW or subbed.

Haha, is this fanservice

fanservice for yuri-lolicon lover. btw

I've skimmed some of the raw, but I haven't sat down and watched it all the way through. I think I'm gonna wait for the HDTV version of the episode to air before watching; the obviousness of the original 16:9 aspect ratio in the 4:3 airing is too annoying.

Anyone here keeping up with the manga scans? The latest chapters (118, 119) tells us a lot about Himawari. Now I don't hate her that much already..

i've been keeping up with the anime and the manga releases in the states and right now they are about the same prolly like episode 27 they will show something i've never seen before

in the mean time i'm watching tsubasa chronicles 2nd season which is equally good

Actually, the anime series is on somewhat of a hiatus at the moment. There's no definitive conclusion to the story, but the current episode run is over.

I'm glad I'm not watching Tsubasa Chronicle season 2. All the stuff I've heard about the fillers plus the continued censoring of the source material is making me stay far, far away from the sries.

I loved the latest episode of xxxHOLiC.

I just have watched the tv series up to the 16th episode, and so far I love it, much better than tsubasa. Has anyone read the latest chapter (120)? the storty getting interesting for sure, lately I've been thinking if Watanuki really:



I hate to admit it, but boy pairing in clamp is totally matched the atmosphere instead of normal ones. :(

I´ve seen both the Tsubasa Chronicle movie and the xxxHOLiC at the Connichi.
I didn´t like the Tsubasa Chronicle movie at all - it looked like a pretty generic extra-episode, but maybe I only had that feeling because it was the first contact I had with that series. xxxHOLiC was really fun to watch- and the connection to the Tsubasa Chronicle movie was just the perfect ending.

I agree with you, this movie is bit pointless and doesnt have anything do with the main plot. but I must admit the graphic is much better than the one in tv series.

Just watched the last episode of xxxHOLiC, or season one at least? It was alright.

Last episode? I thought 24 wasn't even out yet? I'm still looking forward to xxxHolic and have to watch the movie still. Hopefully the TV gets another season, since I need my fix of mystical goodness.

^^^ It's out now. I just downloaded it yesterday night and then watched it today. The TV SHOULD have another season, because this one concluded with a "side story" and that's not really a good way to end it. Besides, people who are reading the Manga will tell you that there's a lot more. The movie is pretty good. Actually, I started with the movie first, before getting into the series. I thought the series was already made a long time ago when the first Tsubasa Chronicle series was out. I guess not.

Could you upload xxxHolic - 24 to sendspace by any chance, pretty please :)? My Cds will be incomplete if Ep. 24 is not Mishicorp, and the torrent is now gone, because it was JUST licensed immediately after the last episode. Thus, there was only like a one or two day window to download it. I thought it was going for 26 episodes, but that's somewhat strange to end now.

xxxHOLiC Episode 24

Merry Christmas.
