I've come to the already known conclusion that you are pretty much awesome. :)

. still, I'm worried about X, since the design has changed drastically!
Now that is something that has been on my mind a lot too. I thought their style changed for just Holic but I've noticed that this new style has really taken over all of their new works. And I am not talking about the background use, but really the way they draw their characters. Which makes me worry even more for Clover and Lawful Drug.

I love their new style -- I love all of their styles. But X had a very specific style -- the eyes, the movement of hair, the way the limbs are drawn -- and I love that because it is X. In the beginning of the series the drawing was a bit rough but by vol 8 or so (can't remember specifically) it was beautifully mastered. Same thing with Clover/Lawful Drug -- that style is completely different from all of their works. I believe it's written by specifically one of the four women, right? Can't remember names. Anyways, I think it would be tragic if they came back to those words with their now present style. Not that's it's bad -- it's just not the same feel as the original works.

I read the articles about X that you gave me (thank you!). It does sound very interesting. I heard that there were issues with the publishers but that's pretty interesting about the social issues as well. I didn't realize Holic had been stopped too since I only read the first three books. Hm. Thank you so much!
