>anime is called XXXholic
>it's not about a guy or girl addicted to porn
Dropped, but loved this ending, both song and video, so it wasn't a total waste of time.

I used to listen to 19sai before I was 19, and when I reached that age, I used to pretend the song was made for me. Can't believe it's been 15 years since then.

Why it ins't talked about as much on /a? I would expect to be highly acclamaited here along with other clamps worked when i started using, onyl to find out it's never mentioned
>>
The beginning of the series seemed like it would focus on things that you could describe with the term "holic". IIRC the first chapter is about a girl addicted to lying. But it drops that premise real quick and becomes just about supernatural stuff in general.
>>288565330
I don't know why people are surprised that older series aren't widespread on here. Not everything can or should have a 24/7 general. People may also just be annoyed by Clamp constantly bringing back their older series to add on to. I know I am.

I think XXXholic is the only that suffers from this though, being a big crosover was a selling point in X and TRC.

They did it for Tsubasa and Cardcaptor Sakura too. Tsubasa had a new arc at one point (it's probably been several years by now since then) and CCS had Clear Card.
>>
>>288565330
We had xxxHolic and Tsubasa dailies recently.

>>288567241
>>288563145
It's "xxxHolic", OP.
>>
>>288563145
It's a deconstruction.
>>
I'm reading the first volume of a thing and then characters from another thing I haven't read show up and apparently they're alternate universe or grown up future versions or something of characters from another thing I've read a few chapters of but it's for little girls not really for me? this feels like a "you had to have been there" thing
>>
>>288572320
You should read/watch Cardcaptor Sakura. Thinking you're above it is retarded. It also doesn't have all this cross universe stuff that xxxHolic and Tsubasa do.

Years later I found out its just called "Holic". I remember calling it Ecs Ecs Ecs Holic too when I started it.

Lol! Lmao even! Sakura is for middle-age lolipedos.

Could be the person I replied to seeming to say he didn't want to read CCS because it was aimed at little girls.

I didn't know I was on the little girl board but if that's the question then yes I am older and wiser than a bunch of little girls

Clamp stuff is panned on here pretty hard by a lot of people. I do remember seeing it on some recommendation charts back in the day so its not universal or anything. XXXholic is a fine series in its own weird little corner of the CLAMP universe.
>>
>>288565330
The anime was dogshit, it's original end ended with him replacing the witch of space and replacing his friend with his indentical grandson, and it's crossover with Tsubasa in their respective sequels just caused more questions than answers,
>>

>I didn't know I was on the little girl board
Newfag. But are you one of those people that will only read "seinen" manga (but not the icky moe slice of life stuff) because you think stuff aimed at a younger audience is inherently bad?
>>
>>288572659
Yes I only read mature series like Berserk, Vagabond and Vinland Saga.
>>
>>288572710
whineland saga is libshit

>>288572659
if the existence of moeshit which is aged-up material for adults whose brains were rotted by watching little girl cartoons doesn't explain it for you then I don't know what will

Sometimes people mistype or phonepost without spellchecking, not everyone who makes a mistake is an ESL.

it's a bot trained to respond to every typo with racial slurs
I don't know why anyone would train such a thing but it's harmless

>>288572742
Moe anime/manga is nothing like stuff aimed at little girls. I'd know, I read a shitload of shoujo manga.
>>
>>288572867
of course, if you take what grown men like about little girl cartoons and strip away anything that would actually appeal to girls then you end up with a bastard genre for bastards
>>
>>288572320
Just watch the TV anime. It removes the whole multiverse shittery.

Don't you like the evas' environmental friendly neons?
Old-school neons cause visual pollution by shining in the dark, so NERV made a special type of neon that looks very similar to the real deal, but it doesn't shine at all.
And of course they would! Eva is set in the far future of 2015.

Which clamp series has the longest legs? I finished Angelic Layer recently and its not that noticeable , i feel like there's definitely a minimum and maximum

"Moeshit" is an oxymoron. It cannot exist, as moe is incapable of being shit.
>>
>>288573407
From what I've read, xxxHolic and Tsubasa have the most spaghetti designs. And in many cases the anime exacerbates this aspect. Like CCS Clear Card in the manga doesn't have this issue but I noticed a few scenes in the anime where limbs were elongated.

Holy shit, two slendermans! They look like they eat stilts for breakfast
>>
>>288573407
I think the only other CLAMP designs with proportions just as exaggerated as the ones in
Holic are probably the ones in Code Geass. Everything else has the same distinctive longness but they're usually not as thin so they end up not looking as lanky.
>>
>>288563145
If you think about it Doumeki is Zoro and Watanuki is Sanji.

XXXholic was good when it focused on Watanuki and company dealing with supernatural stuff. The crossover with TRC and the way things ended made it less popular that it could/should have been.
>>
>>288574558
Still sold 35M and so is Tsubasa.

Robowives appeal to the very core of every anon's being tbf
>>
>>288576596
>>288577623
I firmly believe Shizuka Itou got picked as Lenalee because the people in charge of the casting noticed the similarities between both characters.
>>
>>288572911
Rajeesh, the youjitsu thread is two pages down.
>>
What happend with Watanuki does he ever reunite with Youko?
>>
>>288576193
Everything in this picture is an elaborate shitpost, from the giant matress to the giant beanstalk legs, its incredible how they thought of this and did it
>>
>>288580670
The funniest thing about this is that Watanuki is somehow the correct size, if you use the Tatami as a reference.
>>
>>288565330
Holic ended in 2010. It's retro.
>>
>>288580952
The manga is still technically ongoing.
>>
>>288567301
To be fair Clear Card exists because of TRC and Holic was always connected to it.
>>
>>288580670
I think that they wanted to make the characters look as uncanny as possible. The anime also uses an washed out color pallet.
>>
>>288581250
I think they nailed it, its like an alternate dimension of string bean humans
>>
>>288580861
I believe it, they have a lot of talent, and this might be a case of them using it in a strange way
>>
>>288565330
Because like every fucking Clamp manga you have to wait 5 years for a new chapter or take a bet if the manga you're reading now is not going to take a forever hiatus like X.
>>
>>288572645
That's what i don't get it, why did they ignore the multiverse plot for 2 seasons on the anime, just to bring it to the OVAs?
