Yes! XXXHolic is such a good story, it deserves to be on TV! ^_^
It'll be like watching Twilight Zone, except without the creepy feelings (I'm sorry, but I really don't know what category XXXHolic goes under)
This series probably will allow the anime producers to do filler episodes with their own ideas of creepy cases...(we'll see how it goes)
With the mood the manga gives, I'm guessing the theme song and the ending song will not sound so energetic as Kinya for Tsubasa... maybe... like Last Exile... with bits of sighs, moans, and bells that give the enchanting feeling like the cover page- smoky background and stuff.
Maybe it'll be like X, except instead of feathers flying around, it's smoke coming here and there whenever Yuuko says something meaningful, then an eerie background music of chorus and moans...
Rika's right... a serious, stoic, Merlin/Gandalf- like Yuuko is just not Yuuko at all... She should represent the opposite of those archetype wizards and common misconceptions of what people thought witches and wizards are- always saying stuff in riddles and out of touch w/ reality. I wanna see Yuuko do the following in the anime:
1. Play video games
2. Surf on the internet
3. Get drunk, get a hangover
4. Get drunk, get a hangover
5. Get drunk, get a hangover
6. Watch cheesy romantic drama (Who's that Fernandos that she has been talking about?)
I'm just stoked, that's why I rant here... But it's a nice thought in my opinion
