Tsubasa Chronicle 2nd Season MASTER THREAD
Eolo:
Well, I for one never actually needed L-E Fansubs to awaken the nostalgia feeling that old anime gives me. It's always been here.
And I won't even bother comparing a show like Tsubasa to Harlock of Galaxy Express, there's nothing to compare, they are different shows with different audiences, different themes, different moods, comparing them so that you could point out sentence by sentence how these shows are better seems to be an insane waste of time. I don't like Leiji Matsumoto, I never have and didn't have to wait for CLAMP or Tsubasa Chronicles to appear to reach that astounding conclusion, it's a matter of personal taste, being good or bad.
I understand your frustration, but like I mentioned before, if L-E didn't release Tsubasa, I would have watched the raws, just like I did with Utena back when it was being aired on japanese tv and I had to wait for VHS tapes. I appreciate the release and am grateful for it, but it's not my weekly fix.
I do however realize, that many of these "OMG! TSUBASA IS THE GREATEST THING EVER!" fans can be a little tiresome... remember though, that many are very young and everyone has to start somewhere.

Notice a pattern here?. Notice how the weighting in certain projects favour ?
When things become a little more balanced and when our Envirosphere release history is not completely dominated by Tsubasa and Nana thats when I'll be quiet ;D

Again, I sympathize, but if I were a moronic fan, I wouldn't care about whatever internal problems the fansub group has, specialy if it ends up catering to my personal taste.
I do hope you resolve it soon.

hey everyone, i had no idea little evil existed before tsubasa, but i enjoy all the other anime they fansub, blood+ is one of them... i got alarmed too when i cheked for the episode last sunday and it wasn't there... i tought "well, maybe there's a problem with the sub... monday came and yet the episode is not there, at that moment i panic "h0ly sht! it has been licenced!" but i came to the forums and i got my answer thanks to mr. tofu.
i'm asking to everyone... please stay calm, if the series is still reachable don't snap... just wait for tofu to finish and watch another anime... there are some good options here at L-E they really are a great fansub group...
thx... (man.. that's some l0ng-ass first post there...XD)

Hiya,
I don't usually register for anime forums but I do read them. It's usually where I pick up on other interesting anime. I was a bit dismayed that no one had truly answer gumbaloom and I thought, huh, I might provide an answer. It's not going to be very sophisticated but here goes.
Firstly, it's probably a matter of taste. I've watched the first 30 episodes of Yawara and never got into it. The whole sumo thing was a bit too much maybe. Also, I watched them at animefests and I admit that the crowd of 12 year old boys oohing and ahhing at this particular series may have helped to turn me off it. While there was good character development, to be honest, the plot never caught my imagination.
As for Galaxy express 999, it's ok. I've watched a few and I would say, for me, it's about on par with Tsubasa. I never really got into Captain Harlock; oddly I found that particulary series very boring. The spaceship thing just doesn't work for me all the time. (Cowboy Bebop I think it one of the few exceptions.) Now the series on Esmeralda was good which made me try Captain Harlock again but once again, I couldn't get into it.
I will admit, I didn't get into Tsubasa until the third episode and I don't think Tsubasa is the best out there. If you asked me to choose between Tsubasa and Nana, I would say Nana because the characters have a bit more dimension to them. However, I am fond of both though neither is my favourite right now.
Did that answer you question? Although, admittedly, I may not be a hardcore fan so perhaps my answer is not good enough. Still looking forward to the next episode of Tsubasa and thanks for subbing it.
P. S. I love CLAMP, always have, but I can't say I'm up on the trends in anime.
P. S. S. real question: do you think knowing the manga before the anime changes your opinion of the anime? I see them as two different art forms but it has been implied in this thread that the animes simply do not meet the manga standards.
Sorry for the long post. :-\
