1.  I HAVE  CHOCOLATE! I WILL LOCK THE CHOCOLATE IN MY DRAWER AT WORK AND NEVER BE TRAPPED WITHOUT IT AGAIN!

2.  Clamp peoples:  Do I want to read Angelic Layer and the School Detectives stuff?  Angelic Layer doesn't sound overly interesting to me, and the school detectives stuff I've heard odd things about, but the need to read their entirebacklog, it calls... 

3.  Has anyone read The Luxe by Anna Godberson or Sisters of the Sword by Maya Snow?  I saw both while I was out and about today.

I haven't read either series, but they're short. I think 5 vols of Angelic Layer and 3 of Detectives? So it's not like it's a huge investment (time or money)

From the few episodes I saw of the Angelic Layer anime, it was interesting. A friend really enjoyed it.

I feel your joy! I bought two bars of chocolate today and hid one in the cupboard for future cravings!

I have not read either series, but I have heard positive things about Angelic Layer. I don't know much of anything about the school detectives, except that one of the characters from that series is Tomoyo's annoying blonde minion in the Piffle arc of TRC.

I think they were in the Chun Hyang arc, too.

Have you watched the Angelic Layer anime? I found that the anime is more entertaining than the manga, though there are minor differences in plot between the two.

The only Clamp anime I've seen is both versions of X/1999, and the Tokyo Revelations OVA.

Angelic Layer is sweet, and Clamp Campus Detectives is silly. Neither have a particularly high angst quotient.

I break from angst could be good.

I found Angelic Layer kind of useless, but I don't have much patience for battles in manga. Overall, not much happened.

Clamp School Detectives is silly fun, but it's also lots of fun. Plus, the CSD show up in X/1999, Tsubasa, AND Man of Many Faces, so it has a higher crossover potential than Angelic Layer.

In your favor, both series are very short.

Err, by "silly fun," I meant "silly fluff." Same difference, but the way it's written makes me sound like an idiot!

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I read it the way it was meant.

From what I've seen of Angelic Layer, it mostly serves as a light and fluffy all-ages prequel to Chobits. You might be better off just reading Chobits itself.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

hmm...actually, I've read (and wasn't overly fond of) Chobits.

Now that I'm more comfortable with my job, I've been hiding snacks in my drawer as well. That made me chuckle, because it sounded a lot like something I'd do and say. XD

I still haven't read or watched Angelic Layer, but I loved CLAMP Campus Detectives. The manga is actually really sweet and cute and amazingly angst-free for CLAMP. The anime was great as well, and I'm looking forward to finally having the series on DVD in the near future.
