Tsubasa 12
Posted: March 24, 2007 Filed under: Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle 2 Comments »You know what this series was missing up until this point? YAMAZAKI. That’s right. If we’re going to have Tomoyo, the least we can do is have Yamazaki and his stories. Oh my God, I lost it when I saw him. Rika was also there, but I didn’t really even recognize her until I saw Yamazaki. He told a couple whoppers, and the translation notes try to justify these before mentioning that they may be lies, which I also liked. Oh my God, YAMAZAKI. Thank you very much.
So yeah, yeah, the end of the Dragonfly race. More cryptic Kuro and Fai moments, which I am enjoying immensely at this point. Blast from the past, lost of funny stuff with Nokoru, and hangovers, and a bunch of other stuff happens. Syaoran’s eye hurts more and more too.
There’s a real nice panel of Sakura holding the feather in the little wand that made me like this Dragonfly race a little more, too. It made me feel good. I really wanna read more of this in English now, and I’ve even ordered the most recent two volumes in Japanese, which I haven’t bothered with yet, so that’s cool. I’m in a Tsubasa mood.
I don’t actually remember seeing Rika. Wasn’t the girl commentator the sidekick chick from Angelic Layer? Tamayo, or something like that?
I can’t remember what the girl from Angelic Layer looked like, but you could be right. I think I assumed it was Rika just because Yamazaki was there. I was confusing Rika for Chiharu, and when I realized she wasn’t Chiharu, I just assumed she was Rika.
