[...] reckoning that Kei was 20 times better than xxxHOLiC’s first season is somewhat hyperbolic but I do agree with the core of his [...]

Haha. Lots of people are kissing your ass! ^.^ I could never get past the second episode of xxxHolic. It was to slow, dull and had no real as you said, “PLOT” to it. I have to have plot or my head will explode. (Again) You’re review is great! XD

@C.I.: Watanuki probably sucks slightly less when you can’t hear his voice.

@Laguna: xxxHoLiC a single + in my system, the only system that has any meaning. These other systems don’t make any sense. What’s the difference between “so-so”, “not really good”, and “weak”? Nobody knows. Three degrees of good and three degrees of bad are all you need.

@Asperger’s: Except for Maddox.

@Baka-Raptor: “Median rating: Excellent”, i doubt this would get a (**) score ?! Those site ratings(like anime news, for example) doesn´t show us the real or true grade of an anime, just show us its popularity and enthusiam of all the anime geeks that likes the series at all, for example, naruto shipuuden in ANIME NEWS got “Median rating: Very good” another (**) score ?? Sorry Baka-Raptor, but since i got to know your baddass rating system, i cannot accept another type of rating, Beleive it !
Possibility is that a (***) Rated series would be in my memories forever, and without any complains at all, a (**) Rated Series would be a decent show with a complain or too, but in overall very awesome, and a (*) Rated series would have lots of complains but would be entertaining…anything rated below this (~,~~ and ~~~) would not been worth watching…Why everyone can´t see this as a obivious way of classifying animes isntead of giving us a complete list of :

[Masterpiece,Excellent,Very good,Good,Decent,So-so,Not really good,Weak,Bad,Awful,Worst ever]

These aren´t even school grades (that ranges between A~F in the US, and A~E here in BRAZIL).
But those looks like natural mathematical rates (10~0)

We would go back to an ancient discussion of how those sites classifies them just for showing which anime is the better than another for the famous TOP 10 list… MAAAAAAN this is so boooring….i guess i got caried away…

Show them some decent grade rating to animes and a reference to us baka-raptor.

@Sakura: I probably would've dropped it after 3 episodes if the intro wasn't so damn awesome. The weird animation style didn't bother me, but it certainly didn't help. @Michael: You think you're so goddamn mighty that you know how to save the universe? And save it from what? You hippies are always looking to save something, all too often with the power of love. Get thee to a nunnery. @LJ: Lelouch looks like a girl. @Laguna: Yeah, I did. The scores here are typically good, but those grades are probably biased upwards. The only people who'd rate xxxHoLiC Kei are the people who saw the complete first season, who are mostly people who liked it and a handful of people who forced themselves out of boredom. xxxHoLiC Kei is by no means a must-watch series. You're better off watching one of these five shows.

@Sakura: Monstrous. Eighteen-head-tall. Noodle-people. CLAMP ain’t good with that.
Or getting through a single series without at least one eye-loss.

(I really don’t even have to say what I began to expect to happen in Code Geass once I learned that the evil forces of CLAMP were behind those designs.)
