As expected, we’re now thrown into the midst of the final battle between Syaoran and his double, as controlled by Fei Wang Reed. The epic conflict is wonderfully drawn by Clamp, but I got a bit bored through the middle, as it just became a lot of the two combatants throwing attacks at each other. In the animated series I can see this working quite well, but in written form (and even illustrated) it becomes too much of the same thing and winds up blurring together. The finale is definitely worth the wait, though, since we see Syaoran’s double turn on his maker to help Syaoran pull off a class bait-and-switch move and run Fei Wang Reed through! The powerful magician doesn’t seem to die cleanly, though, so we’re still left wondering what will happen in the next set of chapters.

Crossposted at Bookstooge.booklikes.blogspot.wordpress.leafmarks.com by express permission of this reviewer Synopsis: We get the whole back story of Li and Sakura and what is driving Li in the present. We also find out how Watanuki [from xxxHolic] came to be the way he is. We also get a climactic battle between Wang-Fei, Li-clone and Li, Fai and Kurogane. My Thoughts: Oh my goodness! I know these volumes were supposed to be tear-jerkers, but my goodness, it really got to me. Love, duty, sacrifice, destiny, free will. Li has it in spades. And he's got a fantastic gang backing him up. Things are still working out, what with Li's wish and Wang-Fei's [I go back and forth between Fei-Wang and Wang-Fei without really caring. Kind of like John or Jon. Big whoop, right?] somehow being opposite, the same and feeding off of each other. I really don't understand what is going on and I just hope I do by the end of the series in 2 books. I am REALLY looking forward to the final 2 volumes just to see exactly what is going on and how it all wraps up. Rating: 4 of 5 Stars Artist & Author: CLAMP " no reviews | add a review
