I don't know. I'm a bit tired Doumeki gets to do so many things for Watanuki, and we still don't have any character development for him. I know you're really fond of him, but he as a character keeps boring me more and more. He always acts the same way, makes the same face gestures. We know anything about him besides he's good at sports, popular, and his grandpa was a temple priest and exorcist. Sure, he's a nice, concerned guy, but what else? It doesn't help the POV is permanently stuck in Watanuki, but there are a lot of fandoms like that, and the minor characters are still better developed than Doumeki. With only four human characters, you'd think it would be easy...

Touya is deeper than him. Rikuou is better in snark than him. Doumeki... doesn't do anything for me at all. And the more XXXHOLiC revolves around Doumeki/Watanuki -with no individual development for Doumeki, I mean-, the most frustrated I'll be. I'm in a point I'm only reading for Yuuko and the creatures.

Sorry for the bitchy rant. It's not your fault.
