CLAMP are nice to me this week?! BIZARRE

[taotrooper]

Gah, my internet connection sucks from last night. I'll try to reply to emails and RP threads through the day. Last day of catsitting, BTW.

Um. Not that I cared a lot about the chapter except for the end (WTF young Watanuki whut), and yet. I want to pinch Yukito and Touya's cheeks and ruffle their heads. So cute, so cute!

I wonder what kind of haircut adult!Li had.

But anyway, the BEST PART: V-voices are perfect. Clow's seiyuu NAILED him. And look, even the Mokona seiyuu, who usually annoys me to death in both anime, was adorable and smart-sounding for once. You know, like the Mokonas in the manga and shit. Thank fucking God, no retarded "puu" or retarded remarks. Oh, my heart be still. Yuuko's seiyuu acted amazing in this one, and I'm not only saying it because she's doing OTP subtext.

OTP SQUEE ♥ Watanuki was totally shipping it, too. Awww damn, I made her remember the dead boyfriend D: You can have lots of sake today, sorry!

It was cute when Yuuko would ask Watanuki is being called "bean paste" was so bad, or if he'd put herbs in her sake. And then comparing him to Clow in canon?! A++ would LOL again! XDD

The whole part after the Valentine flashback was so, so depressing. And Watanuki was so sad for Yuuko and the Mokonas. And Clow thanking Yuuko was... oh God, I needed that heart. I wonder if the part about being happy to meet her is like Li-to-Sakura-in-CCS happy that he met her, or Watanuki-to-Kohane happy that he met her. Yuuko complaining in the present on how he never said the necessary things makes me wonder if it's about the usual cryptic nature of Clow (then again, she's not one to talk!) or some bitterness because he didn't tell her that he loved her with the exact words.

So sad, yet so adorable. Siiigh.

Also: They never drank red wine together?! Seriously?!
Also: My headcanon about Clow leaving notes (and recipes for Watanuki) at Yuuko's storage room was jossed XD

WORD on Tsubasa. My thoughts exactly. XD

I'm going to write my own post about the drama CD, of course, but a couple of things:

V-voices are perfect.
YES. A Clow seiyuu I actually like, OMG. *_* And Yuuko is awesome, and Watanuki is awesome, and I thought the Mokonas would annoy me and they didn't.

And then comparing him to Clow in canon?!
WE KNEW IT. XD

I wonder if the part about being happy to meet her is like Li-to-Sakura-in-CCS happy that he met her, or Watanuki-to-Kohane happy that he met her. (...) or some bitterness because he didn't tell her that he loved her with the exact words.
I'm reminded of volume 12 of CCS, when Eriol says he "likes" his Guardians and Kaho says for him, that's like saying "I love them". So it wouldn't surprise me if he never actually said it, the idiot. ♥

... I thought she meant that particular wine? MUST REREAD.

You know what? All the way around. I'd be surprised if he DID. He's more of a guy to show his affection with gestures and meddling in your fate instead of words.

And that would explain Yue's social awkwardness, too. He was raised by a dork. Kero just doesn't act like the rest of his family and extended relatives in England (excepting Ruby) because he probably think they're shy idiots.

He was raised by a dork.
SO TRUE.

By the way, I did my homework and Clow's seiyuu in the drama was this dude (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rikiya_Koyama). I don't recall any role he's done, even in things I've watched, but here it is if you were curious.

I loved this drama, I agree with pretty much everything that you said.

Clow's seiyuu was AMAZING, he was perfect, it felt so much like Clow speaking in my ears XD

Even Yuuko's seiyuu was amazing, she usually doesn't sound like Yuuko to me, but here she did. I think she's better at playing this side of Yuuko than her Witch of Dimensions side.

Even the Mokonas, who yes, ALWAYS annoy to me to death, were so cute!

I loved the part where Yuuko says that Clow died and left a lot of mess behind XDDDDD

Clow's seiyuu is awesome, definitely.

she usually doesn't sound like Yuuko to me, but here she did
True. It might be because the serious-with-client scenes don't suit her voice/characterization? She just demonstrated that when she's dorky or serious she can pull her up well.

The Mokonas sounded like actual characters. Their seiyuu has them as bouncy mascots instead of really fuzzy people.

And what a mess it was! If I were Yuuko and stumbled into Eriol one day, I'd smack him on the head as the closest thing available. She really is doing most of the job, that we know of.

>It might be because the serious-with-client scenes don't suit her voice/characterization?

I think so, she sucks at being all-cool-I'm-better-than-you Yuuko, but she's very good at yasashii Yuuko ^^
