 I think oyceterhas convinced me to give Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles a second chance(read it a while back, liked it until it got boring, dropped it)  See here(very spoilery, but be sure to read all the comments, too)

Some of that stuff sounds utterly amazing in every way possible, both good and bad.

But I almost must get past my belief that in the end, CLAMP will go FUBAR because they don't know how to end things(I have yet to forgive them for the endings of Wish and Chobits)

Yeah, I liked how he was a irritable but well-intentioned kid with a big mouth. CLAMP sucked all the personality out of him... I guess they gave the jerk-with-a-heart-of-marshmallow spot to Kurogane. And I really like Kurogane - his interactions with Fai are funny and sweet and everything else I like to see in a manga relationship, but CLAMP will never let them get together because all they do now is TEASE. *laugh* Once again, CCS left me with a lot more relationship satisfaction! Since Tsubasa and SDK were running in the same magazine, it was only natural to compare them... and I felt that in character depth and interaction, SDK was a far better series... but Tsubasa got infinitely more attention.

*laugh* I can't even call it AU if the personalities of the original characters have been totally changed... Tomoyo is one of the few recurring characters that is strong enough to be memorable. And I'm getting a little tired of the constant deus ex machina from Yuuko. The constant crossovers to xxxHolic really hurt xxxHolic too, I think... it sometimes feels like the latter is just aimlessly meandering alongside Tsubasa instead of being a series that can stand on its own. Of course, the basic premise of xxxHolic is exactly the same as that of Gohou Drug... and although I do like xxxHolic, I wish CLAMP had continued Gohou Drug instead.
