I wonder if reading it from volume four to one would have a different effect on the reader. It's great, to see that CLAMP had written such a deep, profound, wonderful series I knew they had the capability of doing so, and I believe they pulled it off, magnificently. I love the characters: the humorous Kazuhiko, the gorgeous, lovesick Ora, the serious-faced Gingetsu, and especially Sue, the one who seems to link together all the hearts and minds of those she's never even seen. Mixed with CLAMP's gorgeous art that may or may not annoy you, depending on your tastes, alluring action, romance, much tragedy, and feelings that piece together, Clover was like an open book that would paint itself as you flipped the pages. Words that reflected feelings, even if not revealed completely to the reader, repeated over and over again to almost verify that they were true - there was some poetic elegance to it, especially in Tetsuto Sokura's translations. Kazuhiko and Sue, Ora, Gingetsu and Ran, accompanied with the lyrics of the songs that Ora sings throughout the story, make it heart-warming, and heart-wrenching.

The relationships, simple, tragic, just full of love and despair like no other. However it's because it wasn't complex that I loved it. Futuristic settings are always something I have a trouble getting used to, because it's the future we've never seen it, we can't necessarily reference it to past events, because they never existed.

It wasn't that the plot was as complex as the intermingling Holic and Tsubasa perhaps it's because it's not nearly as long as those two.

It was almost uncomfortable, the fact that I've wept for chapters and chapters over a storyline so deep. But to tell the truth, none of the stories have touched my heart as much as Clover did. I felt it absolutely necessary to write a review for this beautiful, beautiful series I've been a long fan of CLAMP, ever since those early days of Card Captor Sakura, backtracking to X/1999 and onwards to Tsubasa and XXXHOLiC.
