I just finished watching episode 2 (The Boy's Right Eye), and here are my thoughts:

Episode #: 2

Yuck... yuck... yuck...
This really gave me the creeps. I knew what would come next, thanks to some friends who read the manga, but still... I seriously didn't think they'd show that. I thought they'd give us the "PG rated" version.

I was so used to seeing these characters act nicely... so I was really shocked at all that blood shed. Not even the bloodiest episode of Full Metal Alchemist made me shudder... but THIS did.

Poor Fay. Got his eye ripped (and eaten ). And for a few seconds there, when I watched Kurogane defend Fay, I got the feeling I was watching shounen-ai anime ). I'm already on the tube!syaroan's side!

As usual... Sakura is the ever-useless heroine. Seriously, all she does is sleep and stop bad people from being punished.

By the way... it really IS obvious that the "other" Syaoran spent the last decade or so in a tube! He totally forgot his conversational skills!
Kurogane: What's the crest on your chest?
Syaoran: It's from the people who killed your mother.

Tsk tsk Syaoran. Nice way to make a good first impression!

Overall impression: Great animation, awesome voice acting, incredible use of the songs (I missed hearing "Hear Our Prayer"!) and... I'm glad they inserted all that action. It was like... more than 8 manga chapters in there, or what? I liked this a lot! I'm just chicken and don't really like to see so much blood. lol
