KINO
Done. And their journey continues...Thank you all for reading. I tried to keep as close as possible to the crossover points with xxxholic, but it was hard, considering I hadn't read either manga before the dailies. Still, I think it came out pretty well, despite some hiccups here and there. Did you like the manga? Favorite chapter? Favorite character? What could it have done better? What did you love and what did you hate? Any lingering thoughts?See you around on the xxxholic daily!
>>286267553Thanks OP! This sure was one of my favorite dailiesI enjoyed the manga a lot, an unique feel and even with the long dumps it never felt like a choreI can't say a favorite chapter, but i enjoyed a lot of worlds i liked seeing Sakura have some growth during the racing arc. It may be cheap but my favorite character is Sakura, it is hard not to like her, but second it is Fai and Mokona.I feel it could be a bit less confusing at times i felt lost a lot during this last chaptiresThanks OP! And time to finish this on the Dumpy daily
>>286267569Thanks OPreally enjoyed the series it is my first CLAMP series so i lost a bunch of references but at the it didnt matter that much the story is pretty good but i think there are some roles here and there but dont matter that muchthat said XXXholic>
Thanks OP!Still a classic for meI'm stuck between wanting a sequel series/ canon update and knowing that if it happened it would be 99% suffering and I think they've had plentyTherefore I choose to believe everything works out for my heroes
Anyone got that graph of the multitude of Sayorans/Sakuras/Tsubasas someone posted early on in the story time on hand?

>>286267401CUTE Mokona>>286267454KINOOOOOOO>>286267569Thanks, notDumpy!Are you dumping the Tsubasa sequel too?IIRC, the Tsubasa gang also shows up in xxxHolic one last time too.
>>286269831There's a sequel??
>>286269831I guess the most reasonable thing to do is wait until xxxholic finishes before dumping the sequel. I also have no idea if dumpy will post Rei.
>>286267349uh, if his goal is to find new possibility (of putting clone syaoran soul to a new body) what's the point of revisiting dimensions they're already inthough i guess there's indeed that dimension with heckin OP magic, and there's also another one with heckin OP tech, and also another one that touched on the spiritual with the faux VR thing...
>>286269893Yup.https://myanimelist.net/manga/74339/Tsubasa__WoRLD_CHRoNiCLE_-_Niraikanai-hen>>286269937Makes sense. I think the Tsubasa sequel is also related to Rei somehow.
>>286267569Thank you for the story time. I felt that alot of the time with the big magical fight scenes, particularly near the end, it was very hard to follow the action.
>>286267389THE HATO
>>286267454cinema
It's not that convoluted but CLAMP was so weird with how they handle flashback/dialogue.
>>286267035Heartfelt
>>286267454When you think about it, this really was Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
>>286267454>Not even the real Syaoran's and Sakura's names are realNobody can be trusted in this manga
>>286267491>Clones stuck in a loop>Tsubasa Syaoran cursed to be an eternal hobo>Tsubasa Sakura cursed to be foreveralone for most of her life>Kurogane doesn't get to retire and plap his Tomoyo every single day like he deserves>Fai cursed to outlive his friends and end up forever aloneI'M STILL MAD AFTER ALL THESE YEARSGODDAMN HAGSFUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUFUCK YOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>286267293Kiss! for the love of all hags, KISS! ARRRRGGGHHHH
>>286267569Despite everything, I wound up liking TRC. When I first read it, I didn't like it because I thought a lot of the plot twists and developments were random. Rereading it, I see that most of the plot twists were actually set up early on foreshadowed.I feel like the story could've handled some of the plot twists better or done without them.Loved the characters. What I hated were certain story directions and how events in TRC caused XXXholic's story to suffer.
>>286267081>>286269663
>>286267454Ah! Ah! They said it!
>>286267569I absolutely loved this manga, to the point of being unable to name anything I really hated. Don't know if I can name a single favorite chapter, but I especially liked the racing arc. Time and time again have I mentioned that Fai is my favorite character. I've already explained often enough why.What I like most about TRC is how it manages to have practically everything: Great art, lovable characters, a multitude of beautifully-designed worlds, mystery, action, romance, friendship, tragedy, humor, science fiction, fantasy, and the list goes on. Also, rare as this may be, I didn't mind the crossover aspect.
>>286271328Same aaaaa
>>286267569Thanks for the dump.I really liked until the end of the wacky races arc, after that it kinda lost me, kept reading because sunk cost fallacy mostly. I wish it kept the comfy pace.I didn't like how it affected Holic neither.Kurogane is the best.
>>286266859Watanuki is not jewish enough for this job. Yet.
>>286267003Deserved.>>286267081This is fucking unfair on so many levels. Holy shit, couldn't they let them be happy?
>>286273108>Holy shit, couldn't they let them be happy?
>>286267160I will be honest, they interacted so little that them being disconnected doesn't feel like that big a price despite them being the same existence.
>>286267205How come they don't explain this in XXXHolic? It makes his choice make more sense.>>286267226>Even Fei Wang is not Fei WangJesus Christ, this story.>>286267293FINALLY. I like the clones confession more
>>286267326I like Kurogane, he's commited to see things done right.But I like seeing him with Tomoyo.>>286267335I was wondering when they would bring up the other pendant. It's bullshit that Kohane ALSO had a feather.>>286267359But do they want or need the shop? I guess it's possible but still.>>286267454No fucking way...
>>286267569>>286267491Thanks OP.This was a wild ride>Did you like the manga? Surprisingly more than I expected>Favorite chapter? The whole sky racing arc.>Favorite character? Kurogane by far.What could it have done better? We would be here all day, but honestly the combat and last fight was the weakest point for me. Also the twists over twists, some work but others just make things confusing. I would also add that while Fai's backstory works, Asura-O feels strange in motivation and actions.What did you love and what did you hate?The art and characters were great. I honestly did not enjoy Clone Syaoran murder hobo attitude.Any lingering thoughts?I wish it spent just a bit more time on the comfty travel adventures. And honestly since Original Syaoran (Tsubasa apparently) appeared the plot spends much time on suffering rushing the bonding time with the team. But still it was enjoyable.
>>286273108>Holy shit, couldn't they let them be happy?this guy doesn't understand hitsuzen
>>286270404The explanations were really messy.>>286269503>>286269482The charts make sense looking backwards.
>>286271328It's implied they will eventually, but I get why it would burn someone that this is the conclusion.
>>286273622>I would also add that while Fai's backstory works, Asura-O feels strange in motivation and actions.That's because it's largely a re-enactment of his story in Rg Veda and the curse of the Ashura clan that is not mentioned in Tsubasa, Ashura also kinda has this problem in that his love story with Yasha is the core of his arc in Tsubasa but isn't really explained.A lot of major cameos end up having this issue really, see how Seishiro has it too in that his character is based on his Tokyo Babylon/X story so if you never read those you can't help but wonder why this zesty priest is obsessed with vampire bussy and what is even the point of having that plot point since it doesn't have a closure.
>>286269482Was the world the clones reincarnated really MKR? I know the Magic Knights were there but they could have been another version of them all things considered.
>>286266946Dead but not erased from our memories
>>286272748>the wacky races arcBased, best Sakura pic Tomoyo ever took.
>>286267081>Stalin'd
>>286274062Same energy.
>>286273841If Nookie is anything to go by Syaoran probably doesn't have the time to pay the full price and go back to Sakura permanently to enjoy his best years with her, unless the unstable flow of time he goes through by travelling to different world counts.Granted it is CLAMP so I guess the sweet part of the bittersweet finale is somewhere in there but it's still kinda ass.
>>286267140My faithful burka wearing wife
>>286267157It didn’t have to be this convoluted...I still don't get Watanuki bit.
>>286267187Yikes, Fujitaka doesn't look good in black.
>>286267569Ngl, I completely lost the plot somewhere around Tokyo, but I think I still enjoyed it.
>>286267293>>286267306All is right in the world
>>286274617Basically Syaoran ripped himself entirely out of the dimension he lived on when he moved to Clow permanently, and something had to fill the void because things just cant dissapear from existence.Why did he not use whatever other methods of dimension hopping that exist? Hitsuzen and because of the added effect of Time rewriting i guess.
>>286267491Gotta say, I love this manga but this "our adventure must go on" ending is shit. End your shit properly, CLAMP.
>>286267454>Their name being “Tsubasa” and being the sameWhat is significant about this? Maybe for my grug brain it's too cinema to get it.
>>286276695Just like their bithdays, it's to show they share the same fate, they are different yet the same, an important point in a story that's all about "the other me"On a side note did you know that CLAMP changed their names in 2004?
>>286277171>On a side note did you know that CLAMP changed their names in 2004?No but elaborate.
