Summary:
Kimihiro Watanuki is a young boy with a cursed gift. He has the ability to see evil spirits, and somehow they seem attracted to himself. One day he meets a misterious woman who names herself Yuuko. She claims to have the means to end his torment, but she never works for free, and she wouldn't help him until he works for her enough to pay for her services. Thus he starts to work in her shop and discovers that in that place, nothing is what it seems.
Enter the strange world of Kimihiro Watanuki a boy who can see spirits and spiritual happenings and follow his unique and bizarre world alongside Yuko and Mokona. For those of you who enjoy the less fight-central animes and strive for something far more intriguing xxxHOLIC will leave you baffled and wanting more after every episode. The story is done by CLAMP so the animation style is striking and very distinctive, the story is bizarre but definitely the most interesting take on the supernatural I have ever watched. Every episode has a sub-plot, and comedy is rife throughout the anime. One of my Favourite things is the intro song, it gives me chills every time i watch it, the mood is just chilled and it suits the anime. If you have watched "Tsbasa Chronicles" I highly recommend xxxHOLIC and vice versa. The show is genius and bizarre with no reason in sight, my only issue is the english voice-over which sounds high-pitch, but there is always Japanese. XxxHOLIC is amazing, entertaining and Intriguing, watch it if you want the most INTERESTING experience you can get!
