xxxHOLiC (SUB) - 5 - Game of Letters

[coolspyro17]

 I want to learn how to play Shiritori...!

[BlueAngel5184]

😱

[900fullmoonfan]

the little fox is so cute!!!

[sweetchunks22]

LOL! I knew it was Mokona!! 1)b/c Yuko petted the backpack. 2)Backpac can fit Mokona 3)Mokona was missing in the last scene at 12:04 and 4) Mokona was the only powerful thing I could imagine Yuko giving to Watanuki^_^

[MadrickIce]

14:01 welp that shit ain't normal

[KeybladePirate]

CLAMP are some creative folks. This series is so different to Tsubasa.

[KeybladePirate]

Why is everyone born on April Fool's?

[R0ckG1r7]

@KeybladePirate

Because that's when Sakura Kinomoto is.

[KeybladePirate]

@R0ckG1r7 And Syaoran too, yeah? Supppose that explains why Watanuki is born on the same day (don't wanna spoil anything). But is there a reason why they share a birthday with Sakura?

[R0ckG1r7]

@KeybladePirate

To further emphasize Watanuki's connection to the two.

[nelmsters]

aww why'd they change the opening i liked that part the best... D:

[TheCorpseLady]

Totally random but their long figures remind me of Jack Skeleton. Wanted to tell someone that sooooo badly XP

[StrawberryLumpsin]

i think watanuki would be a tamaki if he were a commoner :D

[vanillaberryish]

I love that little fox <3 Also, those moonlight birds... their silhouettes look just like the mechanical birds in CLAMP's Clover, epecially since they are in a cage ^_^

[Nickster891]

fox spirits are legendary in japan and none are more legendary than the kitsune or fox maiden well none i've heard of anyway

[oftonfun]

Birds again yeah and if I'm not wrong every Sakura and Syaoran have the same birthday, Watanuki, April 1st

[xXxRav3rRawrBabyxXx]

I love Yuko's voice. <3 She's so beautiful.

[starfireonvf]

@xXxRav3rRawrBabyxXx I love her voice too!

[ucopyingfoos]

It's Sakura chan's bag from Cardcaptor Sakura! <3

[Nickster891]

@ucopyingfoos yuko has her staff somewhere too or so i read on the internet she gave it to yuko so her son could travel through the dimensions or something like that

[sanjiman17]

that word game scene was epic

[Cardcaptor1996]

awwww :3

I luv that little fox cub ^^

'Oden!' *forfeits game xD

[BladedShotgun]

in the english dub it would probaaly be something like "what your drinking that much milk again, i should go prepare a medicin incase you drink to much of it"

[EarthlyMaidenLita]

@BladedShotgun Nope! It's saki and plum wine. :3

[TheNightshade1]

i like subs because first they match mouth of people

second i can pause and still read if they talk relly fast

third the voices sound much more soothing then english.

[undeadgentalmen]

aww... one of the reason i like this show is that have subs for the subs ha (a window within a widow) for when explain a term or phrase.

[TobeUzumaki]

this reminded me of the manga neko ramen somehow...

[indyistheshiz]

by the way where's the white mokona that is in tsubasa chronicles?

[IceQueen975]

@indyistheshiz The Holic and Tsubasa animes don't cross. Only Spring Thunder crosses.

[nessie0067]

@IceQueen975 aint that the same series?

[IceQueen975]

@nessie0067 No. Spring Thunder is an OVA for both Holic and Tsubasa. The OVA is more like the manga storyline.

[nessie0067]

@IceQueen975 oohhhh.....i wanna watch them next =]

[indyistheshiz]

by the way where's the white madoka that is in tsubasa chronicles?

[NanaNarcotic]

HAHAHAH RONRI. FOREVER ALOOONEE

[beboboy67x]

i wont put a reply to the person but i prefer the subs because i just like japanese voices over english i dont know why

[AlucardCrazy88]

I love the foxes!! The little one is really cute and I love those moon light birdies!!!

[4BluePrincess8]

the little fox is sooooooo kawaii

[j0j0130]

anime always has to be seen wit subs... i dont know how ppl can look at it otherwise. it just isnt the same. Good example for me would also be Naruto or Bleach, has to be in Jap wit Eng subs. Eng voice over are so bad.

[AlucardCrazy88]

@j0j0130 so true I watch Bleach in Jap with Eng subs so much better. The english lack the same emotions and the lines are painfully cheasy. Noty to mention the Jap voices are almost more sophisticated. Also I hate the lack of honorifics in the English or (for example) Aizen and Ichimaru calling Hinamori "Momo" just plain wrong.

[redmoonprince]

i love xxxholic. i like the manga better because its longer and more detail but he opening for the anime is awesome

[mokshalovely]

how CUTE is that little fox! Oy!

[sabaleys]

1 person has not meet the little baby fox yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[moonlight7329]

Oh holy crap! the little fox is soooo cuuuute! X3

[GirlAleshos]

I like this anime it is different

[SmileWhenEva]

the backpack reminds me of cardcaptor sakura :D

[StrawberryGinaa]

@SmileWhenEva well it xxxHolic and Cardcaptor are both by CLAMP so it might be possible that its the same bag ^^ i like how CLAMP crosses over all their works in this manga/anime

[antonello09]

@StrawberryGinaa it is said that watnuki is the son of sakura and shaoran

[DesuKawaiiNature17]

Is it me or is Himawari's hair's outline creep ya out a little. Like it is dark but to light for the screen sometimes. O.O

[sub4aNICEsub]

...whats with the bonerific comments

[saiyukitheshadowblad]

the little fox is cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yiyp]

how do you get rid of commercials???

[rowanx3xoxo]

@yiyp shut up all readyyy serioouusllly you cant get rid of them comercials make this show free

[OMGimSOBER]

@rowanx3xoxo Don't be rude. They were just asking. Atleast they weren't complaining.

[LyrixLynx]

The spiritual things that happen in the real world....wich is sopposed to be based on this...i wonder if it could possibly be true?

[C0n1um]

she has as many outfits as that "nanny" on tv

[Momoko458]

haha aww the baby fox's voice is so cuute xD

[j9animal]

@Momoko458 I KNOWW i love that little fox :3 <3

[pokeloveracjnjonas]

Does anyone else find Mokona's open eyes creepy?

[cupcake2fro]

The intro song is so awesome. With most animes I watch I usually skip them after I heard them once or twice but the song and design is so catchy that I can't help but watch it every time :)

[solitaryamazon]

Awwww! This was a really sweet episode. :-)

[IvyLeagueCollege]

@CullenClarinet0128 Nice comparison! :D

[tellme32]

@IvyLeagueCollege whos tamaki?

[IvyLeagueCollege]

@tellme32 A goofy guy who overreacts from Ouran High School Host Club :] But he's totally loveable like Watanuki!

[tellme32]

@IvyLeagueCollege ooh! its been too long since i've seen that :p

[bigboy31991]

thats mean he gave away the arrow with out a second thought what so ever!!T^T WHAT A HEARTLESS GUY

[NinthChoirBlue]

Man...watching him eat that oden is making me DRO_OL.

[rachaelnicole08]

I love Yuko-san's outfits...I want to cosplay her so bad, she is so pretty!

[LittleBunnyQueen]

lol Naruto's guest appearance. jk jk

[KitsuneSaiyan]

The little fox is so cute! XD

[darksimnecro]

funny

[loli6051016]

It's funny seeing that fox(the older one) talk since he has the same voice of Ace from One Piece

[Sweetatoo]

aww the boy-fox is so cuute!

[Tsukiyomilin]

I want to take that fox home ////////

[redeemer1kamili]

I'm kind of upset that Watanuki gave away Doumeki's arrow! I absolutely cherish well meant trinkets. That was kind of cold of him...

[KlikDavid]

what a LUSH!!!

[yankee999]

Agh, I love this show but it makes me so hungry!

[sakura9931]

is it just me or does himawari kinda look like lenalee from d.gray-man if lenalee was a brunette?

[dawnthevampirefox]

everyone is so tall........ (@o@)^

[looneyliina]

Lol I can't help but be really annoyed by Watanuki, especially when he's with douemeki !!

[MissBloodRose]

@theclown2319

the comment that you wrote b4 was just a little too... idk... offensive? annoying? rude? probably something in between that. just saying.

I mean, what do you expect people to say to a comment like that?

[SarahSauRc]

i love those foxes

(and i want fox oden so if anyone happens to come by any................ lol : )

[bookwyrm58002]

@SarahSauRc haha, i know right? (i haven't found any but if i do you'll be the first to know ;D )

[SarahSauRc]

@bookwyrm58002 and vice versa! it looks so good! : D

[EMOLITTLESOPHIA]

hey u know that black looking rabbit thing? is there not a white one too?

[kirathekid]

@EMOLITTLESOPHIA yea but thats in tsubasa

[SarahSauRc]

yes but the other Mokona is travelling with Syaoran and Sakura in Tsubasa Chronicles

[wiccan4ever]

these episodes always seem to end peacefully.

[lovieuru]

What I really like is that I found the anime during a low point when i was 19.

Then I heard the opening song...

"hateful self, 19 years old hateful self, 19 years old."

Helped me alot :3

[blownawayfromthewind]

:) im like obsessed w/ XXXHOLIC!

[DanteTheFuzz]

Gotta love Watanuki!

[CullenClarinet0128]

Watanuki is like a Tamaki in Kyoya's body. :DD

[AznsSenPikachu]

I agree ;D.

OHSHC fOREVER<33

[DevArtsHiei14]

@CullenClarinet0128: Agreed.

[bookwyrm58002]

@CullenClarinet0128 omg, i know riiiiiight?!!? :DDDDD

[vocaloidgaga]

@CullenClarinet0128 :3 Yeah! x3

[anime5rocks]

@CullenClarinet0128 nahh, more like Shinpachi 'from gintama' in Kyoya's body!

[ChibiVamp232]

@CullenClarinet0128 Agreed. XD

[Bubbletea116]

@CullenClarinet0128 nah, kyoya is hotter.

[cheeseyhair]

reminds me or spirited away O.o

[RockOnHazori]

@cheeseyhair i agree :o

[ChibiOne7]

what most don't realize is that its nearly impossible to get a literal translation from Japanese to English. I'd rather have subtitles, because at least they can write a word thats truer to translation. with voice overs, they often choose words that don't fit b/c in English, the word is either too long or too short to match the character's mouths when they speak.

[rikkuwolf1]

@ChibiOne7 u can see the dubbs on hulu

[cheeseyhair]

@ChibiOne7 omg i ttly didnt realise that last part lol

[dustergirl7]

@ChibiOne7 ya either that or they change the dialog completely

[5killer55]

i been waiting for a long time for ep 5

[doublefantasycsaszar]

I don't know. I think it is very nice of funimation to put up episodes of their shows, anyway, so I'm grateful for that.

[Arkblu]

Subtitles are BS. It's the publishers way of telling you that they are too cheap to pay for voice-overs.

[noxia4]

lmao...but sometimes voice-overs are worse than subtitles. i'll take both as long as there is something to watch. =]

[freeinjapan]

want it in english? go buy it. trust me subs are better

[Arkblu]

If I wanted to watch it that badly, I could just torrent the series.

There is nothing that makes subtitles superior to voice-overs, especially since they often contain more translation mistakes than voice-overs.

[earthfireangel]

@Arkblu yeah but even voice overs are wrong sometimes. and just saying but the english language is fairly monotone compared to japanese

[cute1inheaven]

i never get tired of this theme!!! ^-^

[technofreakianime]

someday i will make an anime and want funimation to be the people sponsering it. XD

or the people with a name on it.

[TheCureia]

@technofreakianime

me too!

[sweetartchic42]

im soo glad you finally put this up!!!

[VampiricSpektor]

i hate subbed -.- its to hard to watch and enjoy while reading -.-

[MissLJanae]

But when they're dubbed, so much in lost in translation. With subbing, you can learn as you enjoy the anime!

[zankudragon]

"so much lostt in transltion"!? you fag! virtually nothing besides honorifics are lost in the dub! The dubs might have really sucked when they first started translating, but seriously! There is nothing wrong with it other than you saying that the translation is bad! sure, a few words may have been switched around, but that doesn't matter either, because exactly what the subs say differ depending on the translator! There is more I would like to say, but I only have, like 5 characters left...

[MissLJanae]

I didn't say anything against dubbing. I don't think there is anything wrong with it, I just said you can learn along with enjoying the anime. Being unnecessarily rude isn't called for honestly, but if that makes you feel better at the end of the day...be my guest ^_^

[XxblackrainstudioxX]

@zankudragon american voice acting is shit

[xxranndomxx]

@VampiricSpektor

what do you mean?? really... i'm just curious, what's wrong with subbed??

[Yukipopful]

didn't they have a dub of this up anyways?

[SunNinjaIchigo]

Yay!

Thanks funimation! ^w^

[Leviclei]

thank you for putting more holic up, funimation!!!

[thebiggerwave]

wh00t subs :D

[Msdunnex]

YEY I LOVE xxxHolic!!!!!!!!!

Thank you ^_^

[clearwater04]

they uploaded this months ago for one. their just reuploading it for whatever reason. and i'm pretty sure they have it on hulu as well
