xxxHolic TV series
Episode one is not bad by any stretch of imagination but I do question the writers' decision to use an original material here. I wonder if the original story involving the lying woman is considered too graphic for TV-viewing audience.
Summary and impression of the first episode |

Omni has lots and lots of screenshots and summary, too:
http://randomc.animeblogger.net/ I'm curious, what is the Japanese pronunciation for "xxxHolic"? |

I enjoyed it. Great look. Good animation. Fortunately for me, I've read only a bit of the manga, so I am not disturbed by the new material. I hope the following episodes can be as interesting.
And I thought Ohara Sayaka as Yuuko was a wonderful voice. She was Bel-Peol in Shana (not sure if that's the best way to refer to the character, since I haven't watched the whole show), as well as Raquel Casull in Scrapped Princess, Alicia in ARIA, and Uchida in Noein.

CLAMP will be the guests of honor at this year's Anime Expo held at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA, from July 1 - 4. They will be involved with the opening ceremonies, there will be a discussion panel as well as limited autograph sessions for their U.S. and international fans. CLAMP will also present a premiere screening of the highly anticipated Tsubasa anime at the Anime Expo. The Tsubasa and xxxHOLiC anime DVDs are expected later this year. And If you do a look up on xxxholic.tv xxxholic.tv Private Registration - Make personal information for this domain private - Make this site secure - Become a trusted Web Site Registrant: Make this info private FUNimation Productions, Ltd. 6851 NE Loop 820 Fort Worth, TX 76180 US Domain Name: XXXHOLIC.TV Looks pretty conclusive to me unless someone wants to argue :E -gumbaloom |

Well, it definitely looks that way, but occasionally anime licensors will sit on a domain that they don't actually have rights to because they're expecting to get them.
Though since Funi already has Tsubasa, and the Tsubasa and xxxHOLiC movies, I imagine licensing the xxxHOLiC TV show would be a no-brainer.
