21. You mean that people are actually posting secrets that don't interest you? My heart bleeds.

40. Now that's a secret that I can agree with. Kenshin would be an awesome buddy to have.

50. I disagree. Sure, some of their stuff is pretty mediocre, but X/1999 will always be one of my favourite manga of all time.

53. I'm sorry that you're so shallow and judgmental.

65. I read the manga, and I still think that he's an evil, self-righteous, petulant douchebag.

Oh, and 55

I disagree with the sentiment that romance 'cheapens' a relationship. Just like I disagree with the sentiment that friendship is somehow 'less special' than romance.

(Copypasted from all my other replies to secret no.65)

Well, yeah. I never said he was a saint. Just that people should read the god damned manga before jumping to conclusions.

I disagree, though. The manga and the anime are two distinct canons. Therefore anime!Light and manga!Light are really two different characters.

I'd like X/1999 a helluva lot more if they would actually finish it. I agree that it was their best work, though. The later volumes were the height of their art, and Subaru was the last person to have an eye gouged and have it still be plausible.

But Tsubasa... that's worse than mediocre. It's a wangsty, self-referencing crossover AU with OCs and vampires! It's pretty much, well, the worst fanfic ever! XP

Oh god, so much agreement about the X manga.

However, I do personally enjoy Tsubasa (though it's certainly not an indication of quality-- I like Naruto, for heaven's sake). It's probably because I really did not manage to get into a lot of CLAMP's older stuff (tried with Rayearth, but...failed), and I have not yet been sensitized to the 'CLAMP' formula of storytelling. Mostly though, I'm a huge sucker for crossovers. XD

Re: 50

[identity profile] relmneiko.livejournal.com 2008-03-17 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I can see how that would change things. I've read most of their manga, it's true that they recycle thematic material to hell (I've had enough with wishes and fate! No more!).

If you want to get into their older stuff, though, I suggest RG Veda and Clover. RG Veda is epic in an X/1999 way (though the art is kinda geh) and Clover is probably my favourite after Tokyo Babylon.

Damn I have such a love/hate relationship with CLAMP. I just can't quit them, nuuuu.
