K.J. O’Neil: Reading Tsubasa for me has just become routine “oh, I’ve read 170+ chapters, might as well read one more” rather than “yay, new chapter!”. I don’t know how much longer I’ll read, like School Rumble it eventually becomes a toss-up between “I might as well see it through” and “I could spend another year of my life reading this and the plot still wouldn’t have gone anywhere” until the latter wins out.

Tora: It’s from Suzuka.

Just a question but the first picture with the sub “sex after kissing”, which anime is that from?

I don’t really know what’s going on in Tsubasa anymore, and the sad fact is that I can’t even say that I particularly care

My sentiments as well. When I’m having more fun reading Doctor Who fan comics than Tsubasa, well… I’m just hoping they get back to drawing Legal Drug soon. I’d rather have the completely honest and blatant pretty-boy kiss kiss than the ‘oh yeah, this is supposed to be shonen so we can’t give into our desire to make everyone gay’ thing that CLAMP’s been doing with Tsubasa.

Maybe I’m just too old to care about CLAMP’s utter disability at writing dialog.

On a more positive note… I want Spice and Wolf in english.

So the Washizu mansion is another one of those plot black holes that long-running series tend to fall into…damn.

Mokonas are awesome, and white Mokona is definitely the best thing Tsubasa has to offer these days *hugs plushie*

Haha, the Akagi manga is sooooo slow. I haven’t read up on the latest chapters so this may have changed, but as of summer IIRC he was STILL in the Washizu mansion, and has been for like 4 years in manga time.

Kaiji’s manga basically is exactly the same as the anime plot, scene for scene. I stopped reading the manga when the anime aired, since it’s really text heavy and kind of a pain to decipher.

Also wow, why do Mokonas just make everything so funny? Tsubasa Chronicle nose-dived so terribly, but I almost want to pick it back up again just for Mokona. :3
