Okay, last spam today. I promise.
I was thinking. Now that XXXHOLiC TV has labeled Clow Reed as Lord Voldemort material (ie, he exists, but he must not be named), the "plot" has only been left to Bee Train and Tsubasa Crapnicle to develop in anime.
...That's so scary, man! T_T
But here's the thing. The first Clow Reed mention in TRC happened during Sharano. So, unless BT went batshit and slipped Clow or Bond Baddie Guy's name in any of the episodes I didn't watch, it should come around in two weeks. IF it comes around.
I don't know, I think it'll be confusing from a non-manga reader who's not familiar with CCS point of view. They'd have to explain about that ancestor of that bad guy who was allied with the Witch (formerly known as Weirdo) of Dimension, considering that part was already explained in HOLiC so they gave us only the biased Fei Wang summary. But it'll still be confusing, because if they show the ancestor's face, the anime-only fanbrats will go "...Sakura's dad?!"
And I think it'll be a miracle if their lightbulb turns on and decide to explain the Mokona origin at that moment. But that would be too much, and this is the people who interpreted Chii as Fye's posible love interest, so... no.
Anyway... there are three posibilities:
a) They give us a good explanation and include even the part explained in the HOLiC manga
b) They give us a limited explanation that'll confuse the viewers who aren't familiar with the REAL canon
c) ...They'll cut everything Clow because that's complicated. And hey, if they screw it up, they still can change the ending at will! :D
Ugh.
