TOKYO REVELATIONS (part I)

You know what time is it? No?

It's... FANGIRLING TIME!!! :D Since Tokyo Revelations is just too awesome to comment all at once, I'll do it in three different posts. yes, totally crazy, but Tsubasa deserves this and more.

WARNING: This post contains spoilers in case you haven't watched Tokyo Revelations yet. So, GO WATCH IT. NOW. Beware of use of CAPSLOCK, hearts ♥, screenshots and fangirling in general.

Okay, first of all. SEIYUU, I LOVE YOU ALL. ♥ They did such a wonderful job! All the character's voices were filled with such emotion, you could actually feel it. Yui Makino (Sakura) and Miyu Irino (Syaoran) were simply awesome. The others were great, too. Especially Kurogane and Fay's seiyuus. Gotta love Sayaka Ohara (Yuuko), too. ♥ KEEP IT UP!

Second. THE OPENING. SYNCHRONICITY. YUI MAKINO. DO I REALLY NEED TO SAY MORE?!
It's so, so, so BEAUTIFUL. ♥ And the lyrics, omg, the LYRICS.

Kono nukumori wa doko e yuku no?
Ashita ni nareba kiete shimau no
Mune no kodou o awaseta naraba
Onaji fukami e orite yukeru no?

Itsumo itsumo soba ni iru yo
Donna tooku kimi no kokoro ga mayotte mo

Kurayami no naka ni futari de tadayoinagara
Mujaki na kotori no you ni tsubasa o yosete ita
Sabishii toki ni wa egao ni kakureru kimi wa
Tokenai koori no yaiba

Kono mune o sarashite
Dakishimeru

Where is this warmth going?
When it’s tomorrow, it’ll vanish
If I synchronized the heartbeats of our chests
Will I be able to fall to the same depth as you?

I’m always, always by your side
No matter how far your heart strays

While we drift inside the darkness
Like innocent little birds, we huddled our wings together
You, who hide behind your smile when you’re lonely
Are a blade of unmelting ice

I bare my heart
And embrace you


They fit Tokyo Revelations. They FIT IT SO MUCH. ♥ I particularly love the first line. And, of course, Yui Makino's voice is just too beautiful to be expressed in words. ♥

Third. The ending. Oh, yes, it deserves love, just like the opening. ♥ I admit I didn't really like it at first, but then it turned out to be lovely. It's really a pleasure to listen to it. I especially love the 'boku wa, boku wa' part. <3

Sagashite bakari no boku-tachi wa
Kagami no you ni yoku niteru kara

Mukiau dake de tsunagaru no ni
Fureau koto wa dekinai mama
Me o korashita
Te o nobashita

Kaseki mitai ni nemutte iru
Hirakareru no o machitsuzukeru
Ame ga futte
Toki wa michite

Nee boku wa boku wa shiritai
Aisuru tte donna koto
Kimi ga hohoemu to sekai wa
Sukoshi furuete kagayaita
Maru de kokyuusuru you ni ugokidashita

Because we, who do nothing but searching
Are very similar, like a mirror

Though we connect just by facing each other
We still can’t touch each other
I strained my eyes
I reached out my hand

I’m sleeping like a fossil
I keep on waiting to be opened
The rain falls
Time expires

Hey, I, I want to know
What ‘to love’ is
If you smiled, the world
Would tremble a little and shine
Just like breathing, it started moving


Oh, yes. They fit. EVERYTHING FITS. ♥ Maaya Sakamoto did a very wonderful job in writing these lyrics.

So. I must say that nothing really special happens in this first OAV. The only things that really needed to be commented were the songs and the seiyuus who are totally made of win.

So, this means... Screenshots time! :D But, before that, I'd like to point out that I did NOT make these screenshots. I took them from The Dreamers, and amazing italian site about Tsubasa. I just love it. <3

BEWARE OF CLONE!SYAORAN'S CUTENESS!


Kuro-sama totally kicks ass! :D


Lol, I just love this screencap. Look at his face! XD He's just adorable.


FEELS LIKE FAMILY~~ ♥


Aww, Clone!Syaoran's cute when he's asleep! <3


YAY, KUROFAI MOMENT~ ♥


FuumaxKamui, my latest favourite pairing. <3


Cloney's cuteness strikes back! <3


I was actually squealing during this~ Real!Syaoran has awaken!


Gotta love his expression here~ ♥


Okay, I should probably stop here because I have to go to sleep. omg, half past midnight already?! Next time: Tokyo Revelations OVA 2! (With more serious comments.)

Oh, you can try http://groups.msn.com/CLAMP007/tokyobabylon.msnw they've only uploaded up to volume four or http://vnmanga.com/truyentranh/index.php but you'd have to sign up to download for free! And as for X you can definitely read that online at http://groups.msn.com/CLAMP007/x1999.msnw Hope that was of some help! ^_____^

It is, isn't it? x3

Thank you so much~ ♥ Whoa! :O Tokyo Babylon must be pretty old! It doesn't even look like a CLAMP manga at all! CLAMP surely have improved~

You're very welcome! ^-^ I know what you mean! At first I wasn't sure if it was or not either. XD

OHOHOHO ALL CLAMP FANGIRLS ARE WELCOMED BY ME. 8D

Ahh true. *wails* but June 2nd till our next Holic chapter. ;___; It's going to kill me. Well at least it wasn't as much of a cliffhanger as their last break. >.>''
