Product Description TSUBASA:COMPLETE SERIES - Blu-Ray Movie

| Customer Reviews: Finally, all in one box June 9, 2010 Lars M. Hansen (Revere, MA United States) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Tsubasa Chronicles is a sweet love story staring Syaoran and Princess Sakura, and their journey to recover her memories, which has been transformed into feathers and spread around on many worlds. Through the help of the dimensional witch, Syaoran and Sakura join with two other travelers, going to other worlds, all looking for something, yet all looking for Sakura's memories.
So, what is in this boxed set? There's a total of 7 disks, 6 disks containing all of the 52 episodes, and the 7th disk is "Tsubasa the Movie - The Princess in the Birdcage kingdom". There's also over 70 minutes of extra features and bonus materials. According to the packaging, it's all HiDef (1080P) and widescreen (16x9). There's English and Japanese audio, as well as English subtitles. Unfortunately, the English subtitles doesn't match the English audio... The image quality looks fine to me. I can't see any obvious signs of cheap upscaling; there's no pixelation or jagged edges anywhere that I can see on my TV.
So, if you, like me, have been looking for a means of getting all of this story in one collection, then is may very well be the solution for you.
TRC: Collected Memories (Blu-Ray August 11, 2010 Jon Williams I originally had everything within this set on DVD. I gave those discs away though to a friends daughter who has really taken quite a liking to the series. I kind of missed having them since this series can easily be re=enjoyed. Having less discs really is nice. I just wish CLAMP had included the OVA's that have yet to be released on DVD or Blu-Ray.
Good quality July 28, 2010 Marco Avalos (Austin, TX USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really like tsubasa, and the quality of a blu ray is amazing, I really recommend this box set
Missing a Few Feathers... August 26, 2010 GingerFaerie The world of Clamp is a large one, and this anime series is a recap of part of the manga series. Please note that I said "part of" and not that it was a total cover.
I really enjoyed the series overall. The art style, animation, and quality was quite gorgeous, although I admit I watched it on a SD-TV and therefore didn't really get to see it in its high-def glory. The reason I bought the series was because I had already seen the movie "The Princess in the Birdcage Kingdom"(included in this box set) before, and I fell in love Syaoran's love for Sakura. I bought this box set on sale, for an amazing price, and I definitely feel it was worth the money, with one problem: The story is incomplete!
I felt that the pacing was good; the characters were well-developed, and the story was written in a cute, lovely style that still had enough heaviness to keep it from being generic fluff. The music was also good, although a bit repetitive at times. The smaller story arcs covered anywhere from 2-4 episodes, with an overall plot involving a menacing figure, and an evil-looking clone of the hero, Syaoran.
This is where the anime left me. After two seasons, the smaller arc in the last few episodes wrapped, the credits rolled, and I realized they had done nothing to explain who the menacing figure was. Who was pirate-Syaoran, and why was he in a tube? This, and a few other things (I won't mention spoilers) left me feeling like the series was incomplete once it had ended, and I was actually a bit upset about it, especially once I researched online and found out that it really is just a small chunk of a rather large manga series, which I do not intend to invest in.
In the end, I still really liked the series overall. The smaller plot points and the development of the relationship between Syaoran and Sakura is quite charming. If they had removed the larger arc, which was not explained or completed, the series would definitely be 5 stars in my book. The packaging is nice for a full series box set; the discs aren't all stacked like they are in some other box sets. The movie is a very nice addition as well.
