Has anyone here heard of this manga? It's one of my favorites, not so much because of the storyline, but the dominant reason I like it is because of the art. It just has such rich detail, and high contrast in the color pictures, and to some extent the plot is okay. It's like Furuba (Fruits Basket) in a sense. It doesn't move along very quickly, but it changes very slowly...it just inches along and draws things out, and adds a ton of detail. Does anyone else here like this manga?

Ou, I don't know the manga, btw. not so good, but the Anime-Movie was really great.

There's a series and a movie out, but only the movie has been licensed so far in the US.

It's not my favorite work of Clamp's, but I thought it was really interesting how they made two mangas cross over and brought back a lot of their characters. It's fun trying to find where they put Miyuki-chan in each world.

My only complaint is that I didn't know the Clover characters when I saw them because evil Tokyo Pop won't re-release the series.

I thought it was the other way around. As of right now I have the entire series sitting on my bookshelf, published by DelRay, purchased in Barnes and Noble.

Sorry; by series, I mean ANIME series, not the books.
