-------------------------- Username: Henkutsu_Tama User Rating: 8 User Review: Think to yourself: What would happen if you got all the great CLAMP studio characters and put them in the same Manga? The answer is Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle. Add in the grown up versions of the gang from Card Captor and a love plot and you get a decent Manga. Check it out! ---------------------------------------------------- Username: Comic User Rating: 10 User Review: The beginning of Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicle, it begins the story of Syaoran and Sakura(of Card Captor Sakura fame, albeit not being the same ones), along with Fye and Kurogane and Mokona, to travel through multiple dimensions (usually with cameos from other CLAMP manga) with the help of the Dimensional Witch Yuuko (from xxxHolic, which is parallel with this manga, not merely a crossover) at a great price for all of them. Syaoran is willing to pay this price due to an accident that happened to Sakura, in which the only cure involves doing so. ---------------------------------------------------- Username: Kerudo User Rating: 7 User Review: This manga is a fantasy/romance/possibly action about ruins, saving a princess, and fighting enemies from different dimensions. I'm not sure if it's futuristic of set in the past, but there's magic and such so looks like it's set in the past, also the government monarchical. This is what I got from reading just the first chapter. The drawing is quite well done. Recommended read? I don't know, but it looks decent enough to give it a shot. If you like any of the 3 genres you might like this. ---------------------------------------------------- Username: DarakuTenshi User Rating: 10 User Review: By clamp. Period. No explanation needed. If you like clamp works, you'll love this. ---------------------------------------------------- Username: rararachel User Rating: 10 User Review: I highly recommend this one. If you enjoyed Card Captor Sakura and you liked Pet Shop of Horrors, you'll mos def like this... i think this is my favorite from CLAMP... but then i'm a noob and i'm not even done with this yet, and i dont read all that much, but i definetely like this one. It's engaging, cute, the story is pretty cool, and yeah... just read it! ---------------------------------------------------- Username: hitsugayasama User Rating: 10 User Review: this manga is really good. its about friendship. i think this is one of the best series that the CLAMP made. there are characters from different manga that clamp made. like Sakura and Syaoran are from Card Capter Sakura. also Yuuko is from xxHolic. there is also a lot of action in this manga. ---------------------------------------------------- Username: msjde User Rating: 6 User Review: this one is pretty good, the girl who happens to be a princess falls in love with her childhood friend who is just a regular towns person. the girl also has some strange power and the boy is destined for somthing, overall its not bad and its story plot is pretty good too. ---------------------------------------------------- Username: peachesncream User Rating: 10 User Review: Another one of clamp's masterpieces..the plot pulls you right in and it's definatly amusing to see all those crossovers. Again..it's beautifully done..but hey it's clamp, what else would you expect? ---------------------------------------------------- Username: i_<3_pizza User Rating: 10 User Review: Yay! One of my first CLAMP mangas I've ever read. ^^ Anyway, I mainly want to comment on Tsubasa's art-style. Compairing it to, say, Card Captor Sakura, this style is much more "dynamic": the wacky perspective shots, the think outlines, and the all around cartoon-y-ness of the art is something I really like about this series. ^_^ I've only heard of some of CLAMP's titles, so I don't know a lot of the characters... (If anyone can tell me where Fai and Kurogane come from, it'd be most appriciated! :D) For anyone reading this review and wondering if they should read the series, if you like CLAMP, do so; if you want a nice romance story involving traveling to different dimensions, do so! (For anyone wondering, my favorite character is Fai. :3) ---------------------------------------------------- Username: Sir Jesus User Rating: 9 User Review: This is my first review, be gentle. When I first saw Tsubasa I was drawn to it because of its familiarity to Card Captors, one of my favorite childhood shows. However, Tsubasa does not follow the Card Captor plot, it instead follows a much better one, I won’t describe the plot as I despise plot summaries, I will say that the plot is very good. In addition to the rich plot Tsubasa has elements in the story for everyone including a hilarious comedic aspect, a heart touching romance and action packed (though confusing) fight scenes. Anyone can read Tsubasa and I suggest that they do, it is one of my favorite graphic novels second only to the Sandman series, by Neil Gaiman. -------------------------- |
