Re: What's your favorite manga?

Part of the problem was that the end came after many chapters in which almost nothing happened. It should have ended when Yuuko died and Watanuki took over the shop - it lost a lot of energy with Yuuko gone.

I started out shipping Watanuki/Himawari and Yuuko/Watanuki, but CLAMP pushed Doumeki/Watanuki so hard that I started shipping that as well. I knew it wouldn't be endgame, after all, CLAMP, but Doumeki and Kohane marrying each other because they were both in love with Watanuki and wanted to have children who would take care of him, that felt really sour to me.

All of Yuuko's talk about the importance of human relationships comes to nothing. Shizuka Doumeki cares for Watanuki, but for Watanuki, the members of the Doumeki family are interchangeable.

If you're going to read XXXholic, stopping when Yuuko dies is probably a good idea.

Almost forgot - the last chapters were plagiarised from inspired by Soseki's 10 Dreams, that's how much CLAMP cared about giving XXXholic a coherent ending.

Very belated thanks for this! Ohhh, CLAMP.
