The story starts off with sayoran and sakura two childhood friends that are actually in love with each other but does not have the chance to convey their feelings towards each other. Sayoran influence by his foster father, wanted to be an archeologist and sakura a princess from the clow kingdom. One fateful night, the clow kingdom was under attacked by some unknown organisation and sakura lost all of her memories as a result of a conspiracy to obtain her powers. Sakura then fall into a deep sleep. In order to save sakura, sayoran and sakura was sent to the dimension witch, yuko for help. Yuko then tells sayoran that he must travel to different alternate worlds to collect the fragments of sakura memories in the form of a feather that has incredible powers. In addition, kurogane a fierce swordsman exile from his country and Fai a magician who is escaping from his king also joins their journey.
However, yuko also tells them that in order to cross dimension, they have to give up their most precious thing. Kurogane gave up his most precious sword ''Ginn ryuu'', fai gave up his magic and sayoran lost his relationship with sakura in which sakura would never able to remember sayoran again even she regains her memories. The 4 of them then set off on a journey to the different world along with a magical creature, Mokona. Along at the same time, more secrets starts to reveal itself and they soon learn that their meetings are not a coincidence.
For normal anime's, The OVA's does not really matters as it just talks about some side stories. However for this anime that is not the case. The OVA's is actually a continuation from the main series. You do need to watch the it in order to understand more things.
This is actually quite a serious anime but of course not as serious as anime like code geass. The whole anime is actually formatted in a way like an RPG game. Where the characters would go from one world to another and meet new and stronger enemies and also learning new skills. This is very much like those characters in games where they go from one level to another, with whole new sets of rules with each level, getting experiences and of course getting new skills and weapons. This makes the anime kind of adventurous and in suspense where you cant predict what is gonna happen next. It also has a clear and solid plot which gives the viewer a clear objectives of what the characters are going to do. The thing i like the most is the action packed in this anime. I can tell you the way the characters fight is no joke. It has some of the best fightings moves compared to other average anime. The kicks, slashing, magic, and other fighting moves are just plain awesome.
In contrast to all this, it still has its bad points. The story can get kind of boring at times as it does not contain a lot of funny scenes. It can also get kind of draggy with just a little too much talkings. One important thing is that the story at the end is kind of hard to understand. Whereby you have to spent a lot of time figuring out and squeeze out your brain juice. There are also some twist in the story that just does not make a lot sense. The ending to me, is also like a no ending where there is still some things that are kept in suspense which can really make your heart itchy, you know the feeling right? Despite saying all this, i should say the good points are enough to compensate for all these bad points.
There is something that i want to comment about the relationship between cardcaptor sakura and tusbasa reservoir chronicles. Even though people have on the net say there is no direct relations between them. However there are some things in the tsubasa that makes me really doubt that. First all is the sword that is used by sayoran in tsubasa chronicles. They are really similar to the one that shaoran used in cardcaptor sakura. Also the techniques they used are also very similar. Also the both of them are descendants of clow reed. Another thing, look at the picture above. It is actually sakura from cardcaptor sakura appearing in tsubasa chronicles. They are alomost identical no matter how you look at it. All of these really proves that there are some indirect relations between both anime.
I can understand why clamp is using the same characters, but if there is really no link between both anime, why does clamp show the characters from cardcaptor sakura in this case and make the characters relationship and characteristics so similar. I strongly think that there is a intention behind it. So the best answer i can come up with is that cardcaptor sakura may be just another world that is in tsubasa chronicles. Also sakura and sayoran may be the same person , if not the same person in different worlds. So if you people have any views, you can just leave it at my chatbox. We can open up discussions.
Okay now finally for the song parts. There are just too many songs in this anime, so i would just note down some which i think are good :DD
1.Blaze by kotani kinya (Opening 1)
2.Loop by Maaya sakamoto (Ending 1)
3.It'S by Kotani kinya (Opening 2)
4.Kazemachi Jet by Maaya sakamoto (Ending 2)
5.A song of sword and fire by Eri ito (insert song)
6.Aikoi by Fictionjunction YUUKA (insert song)
7.Dreamscape by Fictionjunction KAORI (insert song)
8.You are my love by Yui makino (Character song)
9.Synchronicity by Yui makino (Tusbasa chronicles :Tokyo revelation opening 1)
I should say, all these songs are really good. Not that they are catchy, is that they overwhelmed you with feelings especially after you have seen this anime. The couple in this anime, sayoran and sakura can easily be one of the best couple comparing with other anime. Well thats all for now, this anime is definitely worth to watch :DD
