Ugh, why do I do this

When I say I'm done with CLAMP, I try to mean it. But then, I still like some manga they've done, and I still ended up watching the first episode of Kobato because I wanted to see Ioryogi setting shit on fire in motion. I mean, it's hard! It was my first fandom and it seems I cannot drop every part of it since it's so extensive and not all of it was sucked by angst and/or crazy twists.

So for my own reference, a color-coded table of series and whether I still give a damn or not.

Legend
Reddish: Dead to me, or not caring anymore
Green: Still cool in my books (or until another manga rips it apart)

20 Mensoo ni Onegai Never actually finished this one, but it's okay since it's Campus-verse, I guess
RG Veda So many cool characters, but in retrospective the more time passes by, the more I hate the Yasha/Ashura plot to infinity. AAAAAAA.
Tokyo Babylon I love you, Hokuto, but shit got too annoying for everyone after you left. I know it wasn't your fault your brother's a retard technically in this manga, but still.
Clamp Gakuen Tanteidan Not exactly a masterpiece, but Nokoru is sparkly and it's Campus-verse.
Gakuen Tokkei Duklyon NEVER STOPPED BEING AWESOME. AND RIDICULOUS.
Shirahime-Syo It's so tragic, but it's a good kind of tragic and really beautiful. They should do more short stories IMHO.
X I stopped caring about everything years ago. If Fuuma doesn't destroy the world, the angstbulance will.
Shin Shunkaden Eeeee fake-Korean badass traveling OTP! Don't retake this ever again, ladies.
Magic Knight Rayearth Stopped caring about this one, too.
Miyuki-chan in Wonderland Never liked it anyway.
Watashi no Suki na Hito Ugh, realistic shoujo.
Cardcaptor Sakura ...I don't know. It pains me to think about Clow, but I can't dettach from some characters. So unless HOLiC rapes it too much...
Wish Kobato can still fuck it over, but so far the minor characters are still fine.
Clover Right now, for me this is their best piece of work artistically speaking.
Angelic Layer Eh, I was there for the Mihara brothers and the Sai/Kaede lesyay. It's really meh, however.
Suki Dakara Suki Oh God, it was so fucking boring. Needed moar writer guy.
Gouhou Drug Stopped caring. Unless it becomes the Kakei and Saiga Show when it goes back, I doubt I'll retake it, so no.
Chobits Jesus in a roller coaster. Not even minor pairings can save the main plot.
xxxHolic DEAD TO ME.
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle WHAT A TWIIIIIIST!
Mokona Modoki no Bouken Tsubaholi ruined Clow, Yuuko, and Larg to me. My chest is in physical pain when I think about this.
Kobato ETA: Changed my mind. Not even the plushies can save this.
