I want to see the xxxHOLiC movie. I have been keeping up with the US manga releases. I take from the trailer, that the movie is not canon to those???
I have read that the series goes in and out of official story lines, but haven't heard that about the movie? |

| The trailer looks pretty good. I hope it does well. If so maybe we'll see Tokyo Revelations as well. |

Well for my part I already pre-ordered it on Amazon as we followed Tsubasa up until it's conclusion. I'm hoping Tokyo Revelations does come over. Tsubasa isn't even close to my favorite anime, but it's a good one and has a good dub.
I should at least see this trailer I guess, but I was willing to purchase this one blindly due to Tsubasa and Chobits. |

You need to follow both the Tsubasa and xxxHolic TV series to get the full context of both movies, BUT they both work perfectly fine as stand-alone items.
Sheesh.... I can't believe I have been waiting almost 3 years to get these on DVD already... |

I ordered my copy as soon as it came on a TRSI/Funi sale. I'm really looking forward to watching both.
I'm looking even more forward to the first volume of xxxholic the series which is going to be released in March! |

I would too Lydia, except that fans familiar with both the manga and anime don't seem wildly enthusiastic. Sadly, Marie noted a while ago that the manga continuity is not followed - which means a great deal of the character and relationship developments were apparently messed up  |

Well I have heard the same things, that is doesn't follow the manga. But since I love the manga, I don't see how I can not see this, and just hope the parts that are not followed are at least quality. Or in other words, I wouldn't be so offended it won't follow the manga to a T, so as long as it is still quality.
So as long as they still keep releasing the manga in the states, then I should be alright. Now if they stop that though, that's when I will get offended.
With one exception though. I would like to know if the TV show or movie ruins anything for those following along in the stateside manga release. |
