Lumenesca's Kobato Manga Review
Rated:
Kobato, in whole, flows nicely. It starts you off with good old humor to get you interested, and as the story moves on, dives more into human drama. An interesting relationship that develops mid-story is between the teacher's assistant and Kobato. Remember that guy I mentioned earlier that saved Kobato from the pedophile and then called her a child whore? He's the assistant. He also ends up living next to her! Well, to those who have read many a manga and watched a lot of anime, this kind of twist isn't unexpected, but it's still intriguing. As of now, all four of the translated chapters kept me interested from start to finish and each had a good (and sometimes suspenseful) ending. The fifth chapter has not yet been translated, but I look forward to it.

I admit it : I hated this series at first. I watched the first episode after a very hard day, in hope to change my mind; instead of the solace I hoped, I found Kobato annoyingly whiny and Ioryogi irritating. I kept on accumulating the following episodes and during some holiday, I gave her another chance. And then, Kobato captured my heart in her bottle and she kept it with her in the second episode : there is this kid who hears a lot of bad things about his mother raising him alone, and after he defends her, Kobato tells him that he has a wonderful mom. I was hooked, and Kobato soon become my weekly feel-good series.

Just finished it, and I have to say that's another adorable CLAMP's work :)
At the beninnig I didn't like the Kobato character, too much stupid >.> But all episodes are really special, and I
can't finish it more quickly than I can!
Honestly, I think that Kobato is very much for children... but that's just only a comment as I only saw the first 2-3 episodes and I sort off dropped it because of some troubles in watching it. I may complete it but I think it's not something I would enjoy much. Not my cup of tea... the art looks fine though (as it was by CLAMP). The music was also okay.

First time my brother says Listen that I'm thinking....What's that a psychopath Stuffed animal??? And a girl who collect
stones in a bottle??? But When I came out for listening anime I ask my brother to give me the DVD and I start with the
first episode...I dislike completly...Really , the voice, the dog and the story, It's the first time I see a CLAMP
production...
But when she sing to the baby. I say in my mind Wow! And I want to see the sequel ,and after 11 episode I'm completly
addictive...I want to know more about this story...It's a medley between Clannad and Nodame (cute part and the falling
Kobato part.) I'm greatly surprise and I enjoy now this story
Well, what can I say? I enjoy CLAMP's work in general, & I like how this story was managed into an anime. Sure, I do have a few objections here & there, the biggest of which is that...song Kobato kept hammering into our skulls so relentlessly(at least at no given time it was stated that she sings like an angel, as in the manga), & I do miss those subtle hints implying that Ioryogi-san could have something to do with Kobato's seemingly endless wardrobe without her having a wardrobe to begin with(that cellphone conjuring trick was neat), & so on. I do like the fun & the humor however, the good pace of the narrative, the CLAMP crossover element(Touya, Kohaku, Legal Drug, xxxholic, & such), & the TRC gang showing up post TRC was rather cool, along with the many CLAMP points borrowed from other CLAMP stories to wrap up the anime convincingly..
