I really need to start reviewing these comics immediately after I finish reading them, because by the time I get it around to reviewing them these days I’ve forgotten the entire plot. Though I guess that speaks to my waning interest in the increasingly complicated story and the haphazard way that the narrative has devolved throughout the series. The group led by Syaoran has crossed dimensions to take the fight to Fei Wang Reed (who still seems to hold Sakura captive), but the battle is far more complicated than they realized it would be - Yuko has been keeping secrets and Syaoran and Sakura have infinitely more power over the universe then they ever expected. Unfortunately Clamp’s storytelling has gotten extremely devolved, and I kind of can’t wait to read the final compilation and get the story over with. Hopefully they’ll draw it neatly together in an interesting manner, but I’m not holding my breath. ( )

Nor do I understand much more than I did several books ago.     My Thoughts: Well, things do wrap up and while I don't like the fact that Li must keep on journeying and Sakura must stay in Clowland, at least they are themselves and not clones, images or their own parents. Yeah, you heard me right. Time travel and re-incarnation are only the beginning of the weirdness.   And while I don't understand what in the world Fei-Wang was all about [yep, another thing I don't understand, surprise!], there were enough hints to answer the questions I might have had.   The fact that part of the plot was dealing with Yuko the Time Witch and Watanuku suddenly made xxxHolic, or what I've read of it so far, make a lot more sense. I'm glad I'm reading it next as well.   Series Thoughts: Overall, while I enjoyed this, the artwork at many times was so busy, so full of activity, that I couldn't figure out what was going on. That was my only complaint however and for a 28 volume series, I guess that is pretty good.     Rating: 4 of 5 Stars Series Rating: 3.5 of 5 Stars Artist & Author: CLAMP " ( )
