The main character, Watanuki Kimihiro, is a high school student who has the ability to see what other people can’t see. He has been suffering from it. One day, he happens to enter a shop. The owner, Yuko, can grant anything one wishes for if he/she can pay enough for it. Thus, Kihimiro began to work as a part-timer in consideration for being granted his wish.
Actually..I think Yuuko (english voice) is the best voice in the FUNimation dub..it was Syaoran's voice that sucked
know what... they just started showing TRC Season 2 on Animax here in SEAsia... you're right, it's an abomination... All of their voice actors!

there might also be a OVA for xxxHolic because when they first announced the media adaptation it was for both xxxHolic and TRC but we only know of TRC and I'm not so sure about xxxHolic it might be just a drama CD for it
i hope so... they only covered, what? 4 volumes of the manga on their first season. an OVA would be great with the movie's video quality that is...
they did. watch the dubbed TRC and you'll see that they made yuko-san sound like an old woman who sound like she doesn't have any fun with her work.

The problem with second season is - manga is more and more connected with tsubasa. I can't really imagine some arcs without that connection. And as anime already has cut off, the cross-over stuff, i don't think that season2 would be possible. Of course it would be good to see both spider arcs animated...
good point. and as a -holic & TRC fan, we'd up flaming about it if they skewed from the manga that much, especially since the developments between -holic and TRC are becoming more and more inter-related. the spider lady arc would be sooo interesting to watch though...

Good show, and story, but animation sucks. I will say though, the voices more than makes up for that. I'm so scared for the english dubbing, the americans will destroy Yuuko-san's voice...

I done that before with Cardcaptor Sakura.... problem was it was region 1... and my dvd player's region 2
suppose that i'll have to wait the few months to half a year to wait for them to be distributed here after having been in the US
(Just so you don't think i'm illegally getting everything! only those that are in the US, on the reserve list for Tsubasa Chronicle when it comes out, bought Noir and Inuyasha 1-12!)
Feel kinda bad now, lol.
Heyas,
You may be able to hack your DVD player (via it's setup menu) to make it Region 0 (to make it play ALL Regions of discs). Just go here:
Search your make & model of machine there. In all probability there's a hack for your machine (it's only the VERY early players that need a hardware hack, via being chipped). Follow the instructions specific to your machine, then you can play discs of ALL regions!
Frankly, I don't know why the film/distribution companies even BOTHER with Region Coding any more - it's only so they can manipulate release dates. But if we peeps can alter our machines (and even hack our DVD drives with altered firmwares to make them RPC-1 or Region 0), and we can buy via mail order discs from other countries, again, WHY do they bother?!

Of course it would be good to see both spider arcs animated...lets hope that there will be an OVA...(at first Ageha Ohkawa wished for two ovas one for tokyo arc in tsubasa, and one for spider lady arc in holic: her first "wish" came true...lets hope second does it too)
I just saw the movie and it was really good and funny. It was cool when they showed a bit of tsubasa chronicles the movie in the end. Still hoping for a second season.
You and me both. They already have enough manga material to for a second season.

May 14 2007 12:05 PM Both the xxxholic and Tsubasa movies were licensed by Funimation a year or so ago: http://www.xxxholiconline.com/ I don't think they've released them though
Since this site is situated in the US, we follow US licensing. So even if it isn't available in the UK, we still can't tell you where to download it for legal reasons. But you are free to discuss the movie (and series, which is also licensed by Funimation if memory serves me right) once you have seen them
