Luna Wright

It's interesting to note the same of the characters you listed like Maru and Moro do get their uses expanded greatly but only in the dang manga. Just a heads up Watanuki acts like that in all versions. I don't know why but he does.

Luna Wright

Also i adored the review. Thanks for doing my request Animat!

Karlamon

Excellent choice there Luna. Now I'm quiet curious to check out this anime sometime. :3

Luna Wright

I recommend both Seasons especially since season 2 is the better season! I do recommend you check it out.

Lady Helen Bio Rodriguez

Nice choice Luna, I must admit I don't believe I have ever heard of this anime, but it looks pretty good.

Luna Wright

It's a very underrated anime/manga. Which is sad because at least to me it's amazing.

Noah Tekeste

Great request for animat luna, Good choice.

Kim Lechman

Good job on the review. I understand how you felt uneasy about the animation. I have the same problem with Adventure Time, because the character designs and animation are way too over exaggerated for my taste. I can kind of give it a pass to characters who aren't reminiscent of humans like Lady Rainicorn for example, but for the more human characters, like Finn who's SUPPOSED TO BE HUMAN, it's really off-putting for me.

Luna Wright

It does get fixed in Season 2 and the OVAS. I personally just think when they made this it was just weird to animate. I don't blame them for being loyal to the manga it whats make me love this anime but I do agree I think people would of understood if the limbs were a tad shorter

Kim Lechman

I believe it Luna, and besides, I think this looks better than Adventure Time anyway. Like Animat said, some of it's moments with the spirits remind me a lot of Spirited Away, which is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Luna Wright

Personally I prefer the manga more then again I grew up with it during my years in middle school. But I loved some of the scenes. Especially in season 2 where the animation got better and there were scenes I wanted to see in animation. The sad part is funimation was going to get the license but it very low rating when released on dvd caused them not to do it. Which is a damn shame. It's also the reason I requested it Xxxholic 15 anniversary is next year. Not to only feel like I did something good for it 15th anniversary but well I want it to get more of a following, As animat say it very underrated I barely know anyone who has even heard of it. Sure it got more of boost but compared to other clamps works it just remains hidden.

Luna Wright

Seriously I do hope when this goes on Youtube it will give Xxxholic another boost. It is actually sad that this series is so underrated. It doesn't help that you really can't talk to anyone about it and because of that it remains severely underrated.

*Warning: long comment* I was a huge fan of Xxxholic, and I know a lot about the characters. Himawari is nice, but has a dark secret to her which is often hinted by Yuko whenever Watanuki is happy and it involves her. That dark secret is actually pretty heartbreaking when you find out about it. Also, the long limbs of the characters is actually part of CLAMP's art style at that time. Even Tsubasa had this but that one had a more artistic look to it so it wouldn't be too distracting. Btw, Tsubasa has this Kingdom Hearts vibe going for it, and it doesn't help that Syaoran has the same japanese voice actor as Sora. I also recommend having an episode limit depending on what your patrons may request depending on anime, as many would go on over 600 episodes like One Piece. Even DBZ would be difficult as it has 291 episodes, unless you reviewed Kai which would be easier, but it still has over 100. If I were able to request an anime, it would be Kill La Kill. It's awesome, funny, clever, and has 24 (25 if you count the OVA) episodes.

Radio ‘95

I actually watched Xxxholic when I was younger. I even read the manga. :3

Luna Wright

He actually does have limit which is why I asked how long when requesting the anime!

Mat Brunet (AniMat)

Because of this review, it gave me a clearer idea of my limit with reviewing a series. With xxxHOLiC, it gave me a good example of the length I can go with, so I'm thinking my limit could be 30 episodes max for a season of a show or a short series

Lady Helen Bio Rodriguez

When you say 30 episodes, does that mean said show have to be 30 minutes, or what? Is there an hour limit as well? Just asking.
