Past L-E Projects / Re: Tsubasa Chronicle 2nd Season MASTER THREAD

« on: May 23, 2006, 01:01:05 am »

Having been a CLAMP fan for many years, I have to agree that Tsubasa isn't their most brilliant masterpiece, for those who've read all their other mangas and followed their work, it's refreshing to see many characters we've loved in the past, slightly revamped and ALIVE again.

For many, it's kinda chic to complain about Tsubasa and/or CLAMP works, basicaly because when something has become too much mainstream, it's not so cool to like anymore (I'm not pointing any fingers, this is a "if the shoe fits" argument), also many people complain that CLAMP have became sellouts, which they might, but they still do make gorgeous art (at least for me) and no matter how many clichés they insert here and there, they are great artists and have joined many other artists that at least we should acknowledge what they have achieved.

Also, I would like to thank L-E for their work in subbing Tsubasa, being late now or not it doesn't matter. People not always understand the fact that fansubbers do this for free and also to share. If you're in that much of a hurry, watch the raws. I always watch the raws and patiently wait for the fansubbed version to arrive. Patient is a virtue, and you should be thankful that so many people take time out of their lives to share their work with you.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not turning fansubbers into deities we should worship, but being one myself, at least some respect would be appreciated.

Sorry for the long post.

I completely agree with you.  I've been following Tsubasa since maybe I think Chapter 3 or maybe 6 was released in Japan, through the wonderful world of scans =D.  I always believed it was really just made as a way to please all of us old time CLAMP fans.  Yes, it's not that wonderful, it does have his flaws that I could probably tick off but I will spare you.  I just think the simple wonderfulness of it is just that it has our favorite characters in such different roles.  I think just that idea itself is representing what CLAMP's bringing about in Tsubasa, maybe the idea of fate and how different one thing could make your whole life.  I don't know but I enjoy the series and I am thankful to Live-evil for bringing as much as possible to us.  Yes, it would be nice to have 29 soon but for a free service to us they can take as long as they want.  It's just nice that they are even doing such a thing and using so many resources and time just so that we can watch these episodes for free.  That's enough for me.
