I can't really say that I'm slow at some things, but this really made my mind boggle.
[Spoiler ALERT! Read at your own risk!]
I've watched the anime Tsubasa RC season 1 and skipped season 2 and watched the movie and the OVA, Tokyo Revelations.
The next thing I knew, I was so confused and intrigued that I decided I should continue downloading the manga from where the anime's OVA left off.
And so I searched for it at my two reliable forums and voila, I was hooked until the latest chapter that's scanlated. Chapter 205.
The confusion began when the two Syaorans appeared before me. Sure, they are both cute, but the clone (the first protagonist and the one who ardently searches for the feathers and the one who traded to Yuko Ichihara his relationship with the princess) became a power stealer (from Fai) and then the "Syaoran" original appeared. I didn't get much of the dialogues. I failed to analyze quickly what happened.
The next confusion came when the Sakura (the one who lost her memories and the love interest of Syaoran the clone) told original "Syaoran" that SHE IS NOT HIS SAKURA AND HIS SAKURA IS WAITING FOR HER (somewhere). What was that?! Yes, that Sakura is another CLONE!!
Should this anime be titled: Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle: Attack of the Clones?
Grrr.
Anyway, the story with the confusion hooked me even more! Now I'm dying to know how this series and manga ends!!
Let's now proceed on what really happened. I love explaining this because everyone I told this story really was more confused that I am. :P
Here it goes. Here is how I understand it. If anything's wrong, please feel free to comment.
Note that Fai's story is another confusing one, but I understood it more quickly. Fai is not Fai. It was his twin's name (dead twin) and his real name is Yuui.
[SPOILER WARNING AGAIN!!]
So from the Tokyo Revelation happening, Fai is a vampire, Kurogane is his "game" (or prey if you want to). They entered a world wherein you play chess with real people as chess pieces, fighting a battle. "Syaoran" the original, Kurogane and Fai played for Sakura the clone (not yet revealed as a clone). Then there's this weird, I can't understand, conversation between Fai (Yuui) and Sakura (clone). The real thing is that Sakura (clone) wants to win the chess game in order to travel different worlds alone and find Syaoran (clone). And also, she had this premonition of Syaoran and Kurogane (was it?) dying in the last battle of the chess game upon being killed by Fai (Yuui). She tries to prevent it by trading to Yuko her right leg and her status as "favorite daughter of the gods" (her super luck). So when the time came for that, Chii (Fai [Yuui]'s creation from Celece) came and took Sakura's body away. The soul was transported to the Dream world. (I think Chii is also a transporting thingy like Mokona white) Fai (Yuui) stabbed Sakura (clone), just in time when her soul and body split (I think she wasn't hurt badly? Was she?). And the next thing was the trio of Kuro, "Syaoran" and Fai (Yuui) came to Celes, Fai's world that he avoids.
Fai (Yuui)'s story: He avoids Celes because he doesn't want to kill King Ashura, the one who raised him. He's actually a prince of another kingdom before he arrived at Celes (Ashura's kingdom). He's with a twin, and they were considered unlucky and at fault for the bad stuff in their kingdom. So they (Fai and Yuui) were set to die. Here is where Fei Wong Reed, the ultimate villain, came and planned things according to his plan. He made Yuui (the "Fai" now) escape, but he has to kill his twin Fai. So when he escaped, he was set a curse by Fei Wong, that whatever world he's in will close (is that it?). When he was set free and Fai died, Yuui wanted to revive him (that was Fei Wong's promise). He was then found by Ashura who gave him a new life but asked him to grant his wish: that he must kill anyone who does harm to Celes. The other curse on the new Fai was activated, that he must kill anyone who is more powerful than him. It was then revealed that Ashura is a killing monster and he killed everyone in Celes. Fai can't kill him, so he put him under a spell of almost eternal sleep. He then avoided Celece and time-traveled with Syaoran. It was also revealed that he had acquired 2 feathers, one which he placed at his twin Fai in order for his body not to rot, and the other was the one he "took notice" that was allegedly stuck at Syaoran (clone)'s clothes during their travel.
Anyway, they returned to Celes and Sakura (clone)'s body was there. Then the trio killed Ashura together. The second curse was activated. They cannot escape Celece. Then was it Tomoyo or Watanuki who traded something to Yuko in order for them to arrive at Nihon country? It was Tomoyo. So they rested there until Seishiro arrived. "Syaoran" the original fought for the feather and got it. Then suddenly, he was just transported to Dream world where the Sakura (clone)'s soul is. Then Syaoran (clone) arrived and they fought for the feather. Sakura clone's soul was killed by Syaoran clone. And then it was revealed before she died that she's not the Sakura original. And then Fei Wong's partner in crime Kyle (the doctor at the other world) came and took the Sakura clone's body (I wonder how it came about). Syaoran clone unbelievably disappeared again, and then Syaoran original came back to Nihon country.
Then the trio ventured to the next world, and they intended to go and find the two Sakuras. Then they went back to where it all began: Clow Country. Now here's what actually happened. Syaoran the original met Sakura the original seven days before her seventh birthday. He was sent by his father, Li Syaoran (of CCS) because someone is waiting for him. It was also revealed that his name is not Syaoran at all! It's his dad's name (up to now, I don't know his name so let's stil call him Syaoran the original). His mother, Sakura (of CCS) dreamed of something and then she traded to Yuko her star staff in order for Syaoran the original to travel. Then he landed at Clow Country's purification grounds and met Sakura the original. They become friends. And then Fei Wong's plan began. Then Sakura the original was cursed. Syaoran the original returns to Yuko's shop right after what happened to Sakura the original (he can only stay there for 7 days) and then it's up to him to decide what happens. Then he wanted to go back to Clow Country and prevent Sakura from dying. So Yuko had him transported back and the price to pay is that he's never going to meet his family ever again. And Watanuki was born to replace him. When he returned, Nadeshiko, Sakura the original's mom can't do anything but stop the time for Sakura's 14th birthday. Then Fei Wong appeared to Syaoran and offered him a deal. But he was the evil one so what he did was capture Syaoran the original and clone him. It was not stated when the Sakura the original was cloned. And therefore, the clone was sent back to time and every history changed. Syaoran clone was sent to Clow Country and adopted by Fujitaka.... and you know the rest. That's what happened. So at the past time where the trio were, which is the day before Sakura's 7th birthday, Syaoran the clone arrived. And I wonder what happens next...........................
VERY CONFUSING. I can't state the story in a readable, understandable, manner.
