WISH #2

Summary: I wish for more Wish!!!
Review: I think this is a very cool manga. I love all of CLAMP's creations and this is no exception. It's all about an angel who is a real, live AIR-HEAD. But she is also very sweet and promises to grant the wish of the man who saves her. He is not very open to her (or anyone for that matter)but is extremly kind. She ends up falling in love with him. I think this ending is very sad because every one who really cares about her tries to stop her from falling in love with him. The reason is that he is fated to die very young ,which he does, even though he is also in love with little miss cotton-candy-for-brains. But wait! What's this! he's dead but.....

Summary: Clamp's Wish is Like a Breath of Fresh Air
Review: I've been reading Clamp's excellent works for a while know, so it should not be a surprise when I picked up Wish. It's absolutely fanastic! Compared to Clamp's heavier titles such as X or Tokyo Babylon this one is simple and not overly complex. After reading it I felt geninuely happy, which is rare when I read a book

Summary: a good, if short, series
Review: In this volume, the angel Kohaku is still trying to figure out what wish she could possibly grant for Shuichiro, the hard-working doctor who probably has the best poker face in existance. In order to find out how she can help him, she goes back in time and discovers startling things about his past and his family. This isn't the best of the Wish books, but it's still really good. I like all the characters, although the demons are my favorites. It's a cute series, and I would recommend it to most people.

Summary: Refreshingly different from previous Clamp works
Review: The second volume is the only one that I've read from this series but all I can say is that it was extremely enjoyable. In this book, Kohaku travels back in time with koryu to solve the mystery of Shuichiro's mother's disappearance (*sigh* his mother's so beautiful). I don't know about the other's, but this volume is a little wistful and nostalgic, since it's a look into the past. It is beautifully written and I love Mick Nekoi's style. I especially like the simplicity and innocence of this story which is refreshingly different from Clamp's other works such as the action packed series of Magic Knight Rayearth and X/1999 (although they're really good too). I understand that not everyone will enjoy reading this, but if you like to read about simple joys of life and love, then I would recommend this book to you.

Summary: As always clamp does a great job!!!
Review: This book was every bit as good as the first volume in the series. This was the first series i read where Mick Nekoi did most of the art so it has a lot of great chibi charachter designs. Anyone who love manga will be sure to love this great Clamp title. Enjoy!!! >^_^<

Summary: Even more fun!
Review: This continues the story from the first volume. An important thing to note for those concerned: In this volume, it is revealed that the main supposedly female character is NOT a female at all but in fact is genderless (being an angel). This was a concern of mine in the previous volume, but it is now revealed for all to see in Volume 2. :)
Of course, the story is expanded upon, and there's a bit of foreshadowing as the characters gain momentum. You can see the transition of "growing up" beginning for Kohaku.
All in all, I really enjoyed it!

Summary: What is probably the most boring wish book earns 4.5 stars..
Review: This is the most boring Wish book ever-but you still need to get it because it is part of the most exciting comic ever! In this one, Kohaku goes back in time to learn about Suichuro's (or something like that) father comes and talks about his mom. So she goes back in time with Koryu and learns about his mom, like her "true identity". She's trapped in that time after Koryu ambushes her, the kohaku/angel hater he is, and S.'s mom destroys herself so Kohaku can be happy in her own time. In this one, Kohaku learns that she has Stockholm Syndrome, not exactly though, meaning she has "feelings" for her captor. WHAT!?!?! You say. SHE CAN'T SHE'S AN ANGEL!?! No matter, read it and find out how much Kohaku's angel pureness will fade off after she finds out she loves a human. I wonder, is that the only feelings found in WISH? Order them all and see anime/manga luvers!

Summary: Wish: YAY!
Review: Wish is a very good manga, and probably my all-time favorite. The art is beautiful, the story is sweet, and you don't have to run around looking for 25 volumes of it since there are only 4. Why didn't this get 5 stars? Becuase Tokyopop changed some of the angels to female. The reason is that the angels are genderless, so in Japanese they used genderless pronouns (they have words that aren't "he" "she" or "it".) They couldn't do that in English, so they made some of the angels female. Overall a great manga, BUY NOWWW!!!
