I’ll back up. For those of you who missed my explanation months ago, there is a lovely Japanese manga and anime called Tsubasa (’wing’) Chronicle. In it, the Princess Sakura loses her memories, which become scattered through worlds in the form of little white feathers. She, her archeologist boyfriend Syaoran, and their new companions - the gruff ninja Kurogane, the teasing magician Fai, and the mandatory puffball, small, rabbit-like Mokona - travel the worlds to get them back. The memory feathers, that is.
So, Fai rules. I guess by this time I had watched up to the episode in which there is a temple floating in the sky with a narrow path up to it and bad guys come out of portals and attack them. Fai, forgoing his magic, does a whole bunch of really cool acrobatics fighting them off. He pretends to be lazy, but he’s really cool to watch. This picture is terrible, especially the bad guys (blobs, as usual) but it’s my first Tsubasa fanart…
And another thank you to Colby for providing the link to the YouTube video of Episode 1 and introducing me to YouTube and Tsubasa at one stroke. You can’t find it on there any more… copyright issues. I bought the DVD, as I think I said once. Not the pinnacle of excellence, but it’s Tsubasa, and that’s enough.
Um, Friday the 28th is also non-existant in my head.
