The mirroring I don't know about. It looks like it's just that particular Darklaw model. The other Darklaw model, c108, looks fine.

As for animation, inside of some XC files you will find mtn2. These are the bone animations and can be exported by right clicking on them.
...
Then open the model and on the model viewer window go to File->Import Animation and import the mtn2.
Once imported successfully you can export the animation as SMD. (Other exportable formats may be supported in the future)
...
The visibility and material animations are not supported at this time, but they aren't hard to replicate.

I actually wonder, why not try changing the model format? I mean, I used some MMD models and I wondered if you could do the same for PLvsPW models. I know it sounds stupid really.

Those three files are missing parts like before. They should be much larger.
I don't know what you are using, but Karameru is the best for extracting things correctly in my experience.

If you want to check if the smd is exported correctly Noesis can view them.

c109 should be 1093KB
c115 should be 1024KB
c202 should be 1555KB
Make sure it's the most recent version of Karameru. I'm not sure why those three in particular would not extract correctly.

I'm using this with Blender and the files you uploaded worked fine:

I just imported the DAE and then the animation.
