xxxHolic Series
Tagged under CLAMP, Production I.G, Series.
Kimihiro Watanuki sees ghosts. Seeking to get away from the spirits who literally haunt him, he finds himself one day
pulled by a force into a shop, where he meets Ichihara Yuuko, also known as the Dimension Witch. In the shop, Watanuki
is told that this meeting was 'Hitsuzen.'
Yuuko grants wishes for the appropriate price. Sensing
that Watanuki's dearest wish is to stop seeing spirits, she promises to take the spirits away in exchange for Watanuki
working in her home as a cook and cleaner. Bound perhaps by Hitsuzen, Watanuki agrees.
However,
this is only the beginning. Watanuki beings to participate in 'jobs' with Yuuko, and his unique powers are often the
reason for the job itself. In order to complete these jobs, Watanuki must work with his hated rival, Shizuka Doumeki,
who possesses exorcist powers.
But under these jobs hides a plot, and unbeknownst to Watanuki,
Yuuko is using his help in order to stop it...

Z827's xxxHolic Tv Review
Rated:
This is a Review of xxxHolic ( Season I ) :
Essentially , xxxHolic is a fine mix of morality with light humor and a bit of storyline as side-ingridients. Every few
episodes or so , a morality value which is to be learnt is almost always there , either learning not to lie and stuff
like that...you get the idea.
The storyline is quite intriuging to a certain extent , further supported by the usage of mythology references to the
Japanese culture to keep this alive , if you ARE curious enough anyway.
Well , Season I was simply a stepping stone for the later Seasons I believe , I haven't watched the Anime yet but I have
read bits of the Manga so more under-elaborated characters would be explained further later on , but definitely not in
this Season.

I am a Clamp fangirl and this is one of my favorite series; currently following the manga serializations as they're released. In true Clamp fashion, though, so many things are alluded to with crossover from the rest of the Clamp-iverse that I wonder if future installments will rush through or ignore hanging threads altogether?

I think anime is a very intelligent, cool soundtrack, the physical characters are a little high for most, but this anime
is so perfect.
tell about several things, like tradicionals superstitions.
i think is helpful, have a lot advices.
Again a serie of the supernatural genre, so of course I liked it. The enigmatic atmosphere of this anime is amazing and of course I love the fact that they use the folk of around the world to make the stories. The only thing I have a commplaint of it's the lenght of it, even thought there are two seasons plus and OVA I think they left out a lot of nice stories that are in the manga... but oh well.
ColdHaiKu rated 10.00:Simply the best anime/manga ever : it's funny, strange, mystic, dramatic, sad, happy, cold, cute, crazy, poetic, beautiful...and AMAZING ! All characters are likeable, and espacially the wonderful Yuuko-san
dfantasy2009 rated 10.00:yezzzzzzzz my favorite anime/manga forever!!! Been watching/ reading it for probably about half a year. i actually painted a table with Yuuko and Watanuki on the top 0.o I think the anime series is over now, but perhaps a few more OVAs, but I'm still a weekly follower of the manga... which I think is on hiatus until ... June? *cries*
