Seinen xxxHolic by CLAMP

[Tamerlane]

You know I just noticed that there was not a thread about this manga and I thought that I would start one.

For those of you not familiar with this series it was created by Clamp and follows the lives of Yuuko, the space time witch and Watanuki, her part time worker / apprentice. Yuuko runs a 'shop' where any wish can be granted and it is here that most of the story takes place. As Holic directly crosses over with Tsuabsa Reservoir Chronicle so those of you familiar with that series would be interested to read this one as well.

You can read the series via mIRC, The Room of Requirement, and Be With you Scans. BWYS has the manga from the beginning and TROR is the latest chapters although they are not scanlated there, just the translation and the RAW are hosted.

So how many other people read this series? If you do what do you think about it?

You can find XXX Holic in volume form here. http://believemanga.cjb.net/index.php?showtopic=92

I have also read to the most current chapter, and I gotta say, it does explain a lot of things that are left unsaid in TRC.

I think it's a really good read.

9/10.

Also on my site, I only have til chapter 103, because the most recent chapters are on an online-manga reading site, where I am unable to get the zip/rars for the chapters.

Ciao.

Re: xxxHolic

Ive been reading xxxHolic for a while now and it's definetly one of my favourites.
Its an essential read if you like TsubasaRC. The artwork is just as good as TRC, maybe even better!
It's good for a nice, relaxed easy read, if your sick of the usual action and fighting all the time.

Re: xxxHolic

I started reading this manga after I started reading Tsubasa once I learned that the two are connected, and it's a great manga! It's so interesting!

My favorite character is Doumeki!

Spoiler: Major Himawari spoilers from the latest chapters

Himawari is so creepy but now I feel so bad for her. ;_; Imagine if you were forever cursed like that.

Re: xxxHolic

Thats the one, they have til chapter 119 for the moment.

I wish BWYS would kick it into high gear on some of their other mangas.

Even their main mangas are moving incredibly slow.

Oh well.

Maybe another group will pick up XXX someday.

Until then.

OMG your right.
Now there's something interesting to think about if you've read the latest chapter of xxxHolic (119).
