CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

As you can see from my avatar, I love Tsubasa- Syaoran and Sakura are my favorite anime couple! So, has anyone read Tsubasa? If you have, I'd love to read your thoughts on it! (I haven't read Vol 3 yet, so don't give away its details, lol!)

I can't say I've ever heard of it. What is it about? Obviously its good.

Tsubasa is a fantasy series by CLAMP loosely based on their previous mangas (cardcaptor sakura, chobits, etc.), and it is just plain awesome! Syaoran (also called Li) is forced to embark on a dangerous journey through different worlds to regain the lost memories of the one he loves most: Sakura. However, even though all her memories may be restored, she will never retain her memories of him ever again. Even though Syaoran knows they can never love each other in the same way again, he begins the quest anyway, demostrating his true love.
It sounds utterly shoujo, but it's actually a shonen comic (if i'm correct...) someone correct me if i made any mistakes. Anyway, its loads of fun!

Yeah! I'm really enjoying Tsubasa! Funny thing is I read the 3rd volume before the second. I can't wait for the 4th volume. It's quite funny. I kinda pity Kurogane sometimes.

i love tsubasa, ive read all that is out

I CANT WAIT FOR THE ANIMATED SERIES

I love Tsubasa, it's one of my favorite manga series now. You need to come and join the "Sakura and CLAMP fanclub" over in the anime section.

I'm not a huge CLAMP fan, but I have to admit this is one of my top manga favorites. I'm a die-hard Syaoran fan (though I like the other guys too) from my CCS days, so I was really happy to see even more of him. I just like the innocent, lighthearted (but appropriately serious at times) mood to it.

I'll have to read it, being the uber-CLAMP fan that I am.

The other night I saw the CCS episode where Li and Kero-chan's bodies get switched by the CHANGE card! Man, that was a HILARIOUS episode!

I love Tsubasa! I can't wait til vol 4 comes out! ^^

I have the first 3 volumes! Its great! One of CLAMP's darker works for sure but certainly not as dark as X (X scares me slightly) Its also got great humor. It has a cussing problem but nothing the magic of ink pens can't fix!

Out of curiosity, why would you say it's dark? I know there's the whole thing of Sakura's memory, but for the most part, it struck me as an optimistic and upbeat series at least so far. xXxholic, on the other hand, is something I would consider dark (X/1999 as well.)

this is one of my favorite series that i have. CLAMP's artwork is beautiful, and i am enjoying the characters, even though i haven't read any of their other work. i have the first two volumes, and am waiting to get the third until after Christmas.

I love Tsubasa. Not only is the story fascinating but, as a CLAMP fan, I enjoy seeing CLAMP's past creations placed in a multitude of different worlds and situations.

I didn't find it dark either... *confused* O_o
O well... out of CLAMPS works, I think X, parts of CCS, parts of Rayearth would be the darker ones.....

"Dark" was a bad description. My fault. What I mean is more mature in a sense. When Tsubasa is compared to things like Angelic Layer and CLAMP School Detectives it seems to be for an older audience. Sorry probably be confusing again (I do this to people a lot) but do you understand what I mean?

Still confused... yea.... I don't see how its real mature in a sense.... but I think I know what you mean, like its a deeper story that the others?

Yes thats what I mean!

YAY! *does a dance* OK now were on the same page ^_^

I understand what you mean. Though, having looked into some of the really dark stuff (xXxholic, X/1999, and even a little bit of Gohou Drug), I'd say Tsubasa looks like a sunny walk by the sea. Of course, I forgot to compare to things like Angleic Layer and CSD, so now I understand a little better how you could view it as "more mature." *nodnod*

I haven't read this manga, even though I really want to... so many manga, so little time/money. I'll get to it, and the Trigun Maximum, and Fruits Basket.........

*comfort*
Don't worry, theyre def worth the wait!

Eh, I`ve heard so many good things about this manga, and being a fan of CLAMP`s work (I love Chobits!) I decided to buy the first two volumes of Tsubasa today at the mall (along with Naruto #5). I can`t wait till I have the time to read it~!
^-^

Oops! Double post! Gomen Nasai!

youll definatly love it, its my favorite clamp ever! just have to get used to the characters looking the same, and having the same name, but not really being them

<<edit>>

oo!! I love Tsubasa! It's one of my fav CLAMP series ever! Can wait till Volume 4 comes out!! If you have not read Tsubasa..READ IT! Its a very good series so far and Im sure it will continue to be a very awsome series!

I hear there is an anime coming out ^^
How many vol total are there of this manga?

Currently, there are at least 8 volumes out in Japan and it's still continuing.

Here is an interesting interview with CLAMP that I found regarding Tsubasa and XXXHolic.
