×××HOLiC (Manga)	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Kimihiro Watanuki is a high school student who is continually plagued by supernatural monsters and spirits which are magically attracted to him, which are invisible to everyone but himself, and usually try to devour him. One day, while running away from and nearly being eaten by some spirits, he finds a mysterious shop that grants wishes.The shop is owned by the Witch of the Dimensions, although she has been known by many other names — even Yuuko Ichihara, the name she gives Watanuki, is only a pseudonym. She offers to grant his wish to be rid of his ability to see spirits, but a price of equal value must be paid. Thus, Watanuki becomes a "part-time worker", which usually involves performing housework and odd jobs for Yuuko, until he has done enough work for his wish to be granted.Chapters/episodes usually involve a customer coming into the shop and asking for their wish to be granted by Yuuko, having usually negative or dubious results, or they involve some (usually risky) task that Yuuko gives Watanuki which requires his ability to see spirits. However, there is also an overarching plotline regarding a set of dark conspiracies and prophecies that becomes increasingly important in the later volumes.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })One of the main themes in ×××HOLiC is the concept of hitsuzen — probably best translated as "inevitability" or "inevitable fate" (although what is inevitable is influenced by your mindset and past choices, this is more like a slightly fatalistic Chaos Butterfly than the Western concept of destiny) — which affects many of the characters' actions throughout the story. Yuuko told Watanuki when they first met that it was hitsuzen.The Anime has been uploaded in both dub and subtitle formats on Funimation's video portal.This is a CLAMP work and is the darker and more psychologically-driven companion to CLAMP's Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE-. The two series tend to cross over quite a bit, with Yuuko appearing several times in Tsubasa, and it's recomended to read both mangas in order to understand the whole storynote For the curious, here's a recomended reading order based on each volume's release date. Yes, it sugests reading both series in tandem. There are also many crossovers with other CLAMP works within the story besides Tsubasa. The anime has two seasons, ×××HOLiC with 24 episodes (released in English by Funimation), and ×××HOLiC: Kei with 13. Airing on a different channel than Tsubasa, most references to it were removed from the anime. There has also been a feature-length movie (A Midsummer Night's Dream) and a 2-part OAD series, ×××HOLiC: Shunmuki and two OAD released with the manga volumes, unrelated to the plot of the first one, called ×××HOLiC: Rou.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })The manga has been completed, with 213 chapters in all. A sequel series titled ×××HOLiC: Rei has started serializing since March 2013.The name is pronounced "holic", by the way. The "×××" basically denotes "insert something here", along the lines of "___holic" in English. It has nothing to do with being addicted to porn.

After receiving half of Doumeki's right eye, Watanuki's vision in that eye is better than what it started with and so wearing glasses all the time isn't necessary. He even spends nearly three entire volumes without any glasses. Despite this, he continues to compulsively wear them once he acquires a new pair.

And even then it's challenging. Hilariously, every tankobon has a front page telling you you don't need to be reading Tsubasa to understand the plot. Though to be fair, reading Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE- may not help in understanding the plot at all.

Usually he appears without glasses in the Dreamscape or when recuperating from serious injury.

Heck, to a degree, Himawari herself ships Doumeki/Watanuki, often commenting on how cute they are when they interact. They kind of have to do that to make sure that Watanuki is not alone.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_1fc8335e	comment	Deal with the Devil: Because Yuuko requires equal payment to fulfill the wish, many of the prices seem very difficult or problematic. Also, if someone reneges on their payment, the results tend to be rather nasty. Example — One customer`s payment is that she must never be photographed, video-taped, etc. again in her life. Logically, that would be a very difficult thing to conform to. If she ever is, her crime will be exposed for all to see. It's likely she was a murderer, and the punishment for not adhering to the price would be her exposure as one to the public, so she deserved this.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: The Tube seen at the beginning of Tsubasa is in Yuuko's store room next to Fai's tattoo and Kurogane's sword. It contains people, whose identities are spoilers. Slightly more subtly is what seems to be a replica of Sakura's staff, the existence of which ends up tying into the story in a big way later. Doumeki's egg provides a variation of this trope—we are told, specifically, that the egg given to him by Yuuko will be useful at some point. We find out in the last chapter that its apparent purpose is to erase Watanuki's memories of Yuuko once he's ready to let go. If he ever is, that is.

Except Haruka smiles more often and has a more amiable personality than his grandson. And as of chapter 213, Doumeki's great-grandson is a spitting image of him, as Watanuki points out.

Even after he takes over the shop and becomes increasingly like Yuuko in terms of wisdom and demeanor, he never seems to fully catch onto exactly why Doumeki sticks around. And in the OVA, after giving Watanuki an invitation to his wedding to Kohane, Doumeki points out to him that the one Kohane loves the most is actually Watanuki. To this revelation Watanuki gives Doumeki a genuinely shocked look before devolving into a sad smile.

When she states that he always says that, his own response is that he always wants to say it when he's happy. Aww. By chapter 205, it's literal. She's now attending college. Then, there's Watanuki. In a partial subversion, he doesn't physically age, but after 10+ years his maturity is obvious.

Although later it seems Watanuki's blue eyes serve to show off his uncanny resemblance to the English-Chinese magician Clow Reed, whom he's distantly related to.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_4dbb4142	comment	Not to mention for all the talk about Watanuki being destined for Doumeki or Himawari, there is an absolute mountain of teasing between Watanuki and Yuuko. Pick any official illustration with the two of them in it, and you can bet anyone who hasn't read the manga will ASSUME something's up between them. And considering that Watanuki is staying at her shop because he knowingly imprisoned himself there in order to wait for her to come back to him after she disappeared, they might not be wrong! Although, as revealed in Tsubasa, he may have chosen that price because he couldn't come up with anything else quickly enough. He even acknowledged that he knew that the price wasn't quite right. It's true that he had already made his decision to wait for her, but the method might have been less self-sacrificial if Tsubasa had ended differently. Even so, it certainly doesn't change the fact that he's now developed a tendency to go into moments of melancholy reminiscence over her while whispering her name. Extra points go to the fact that Watanuki now not only resembles Clow Reed, with whom Yuuko was heavily implied to be in some sort of close relationship, but is also increasingly becoming like him.

(However, later the OVA's introduce the storyline and unite both series, so the thing becomes a bit complicated to jive.) Interestingly, the Tsubasa anime opts for not showing whether the Mokonas were awakened at once or not, so the continuity of both animated adaptations could fit more or less seamlessly.

Well... he is interested in Himawari Kunogi and she kinda likes him back, but it turns out his "love rival" Shizuka Doumeki isn't interested in Himawari like he believed, but in Watanuki himself. Oh, and you know Zashiki Warashi, that cute girl that's completely shy and has a huge crush on Watanuki? "She" might not actually be a she. According to a CLAMP interview where they say that her being female is not necessarily the case. Ame-warashi usually says "this child" when referring to Zashiki Warashi instead of actually using a gender; in CLAMP works, other-worldly types are typically without gender (Wish, Cardcaptor Sakura). Should be noted that at no point has any male character, not even Doumeki himself, actually explicitly expressed romantic interest in Watanuki (everything is inferred based on actions and reactions), only some characters, like Yuuko, seem hellbent on creating a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy. The second Rou OAD shows that at one time Doumeki himself doesn't understand why he does all these things for Watanuki, with the implication that he still doesn't really understand even by the end of the first manga. Even Himawari's husband likes Watanuki — his cooking, anyway, which isn't too surprising.

One of the first clients (other than Watanuki) we see gets condemned by hitsuzen (and proximity to Himawari) to paralysis and death because she told George Costanza-esque tall tales non-stop, which eventually built up to the point that the paralytic effects of the bad juju she was drawing to herself needed a ring to reduce the paralysis as long as she kept it on, and her doom was caused when she kept lying and then either took the ring off or the accumulated curse became large enough to break the ring's protection, so it was mostly caused by supernaturally bad luck while unknowingly taunting Cthulhu-lite. (The story was harsh enough that the anime changed it to let the woman live to correct her mistakes.) Yuuko's machinations do not seem to carry a similar price at first but the fact that she's already dead probably has something to do with it.

He actually has to be called out on the fact he's far too willing to let himself be harmed for the sake of others. Doumeki for Watanuki, many, many times. Notable examples include giving up half of his right eye to restore Watanuki's aforementioned lost sight and what was probably several pints of blood to replenish Watanuki's after he fell from a second story window. Himawari also eventually pays her own price for Watanuki's sake, taking on all the scars Watanuki would've otherwise received from the injuries he sustained from the falling-out-the-window escapade herself, in part because it was her Doom Magnet powers that influenced the accident to occur in the first place.

It's almost amazing that by the end, the ship among major characters that is probably sunk the least... is the one involving the long-since deceased witch whose accidentally continued existence screwed over the multiverse.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_6bda9a30	type	Meaningful Name
×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_6bda9a30	comment	Meaningful Name: Kimihiro Watanuki writes his family name as "April 1st," which also is his birthday. While this alone doesn't mean too much alone, it means a hell of a lot when you realize that April 1st is also Sakura and (presumably) Syaoran's birthday. His personal name is written with the kanji for "prophet". Also, Watanuki names Mugetsu (meaning "No moon"), because of the shape of its eyes. Yuuko offers an alternate interpretation for Watanuki's family name: For the lazy, that means his "family name" is a roundabout way of saying "decoy". Particularly significant when Yuuko is musing that it isn't even really his name. The mysterious item that Doumeki brings to the shop also senses that "Watanuki" isn't his real name. It's also said that his original purpose was to take Syaoran place so that the world/timeline wouldn't fall apart, though both Syaoran and Yuuko push him to secure his own place and become his own person rather than just remaining the substitute. Think about how unlucky he was at the start of the series, before Yuuko and Syaoran pushed him to value his own existence he subconsciously drew misfortune to himself because he knew he was a substitute and not meant to exist. Likewise, Kohane Tsuyuri's given name means "Little Feather". This becomes significant when she gives up her power to exorcise spirits, which is caused by one of C!Sakura's feathers. Her family name, meaning May 7th, hasn't been explained to have any ulterior meaning, though as a name that is also a calender date, it serves as one of several parallels she has to Watanuki.

Then it gets more complicated when it turns out that Watanuki seems to care more for Yuuko than the other two. And then comes chapter 199, which has Himawari and Watanuki share a fond phone call after Himiwari has moved away for university. But they can't meet more than once a year... and Doumeki apparently passes on messages, news and presents between the two of them. As of chapter 209, it seems she's married. In the conclusion of the series, we find out that the Doumeki we've been seeing in the latest chapters is actually Shizuka Doumeki's great grandson, meaning that the one who stuck with Watanuki through everything and never really asked for anything in return did eventually have a family. According to above via Word of God Kohane and Doumeki got married despite both of them loving Watanuki. Maybe to leave him with people who could stay by his side after them?

A few of Yuuko's clients qualify as well, most recently Watanuki's cooking student who smiles politely when she explains that won't eat her own cooking because she thinks she's disgusting. This is because the taste of a person's cooking in the ×××HOLiC-verse gives a sensation of that person's true nature (Doumeki can't seem to get enough of Watanuki's cooking, and Watanuki himself can't remember eating his own food due to the price he paid being the knowledge pertaining to his identity), and she's got a subconscious loathing of herself so she's terrified about finding out how her food tastes. It's really bland and compared to the warmth revealed in Watanuki's cooking drives her to ask her fiance to wait while she develops her own self through more instruction by Watanuki.

And now Doumeki's great-grandson looks identical to Haruka, and therefore Doumeki by extension... Still doesn't smile though. Also, Watanuki looks almost exactly like what you'd expect a young version of his great (or however many generations down)-grandfather, Clow Reed to look like, and the resemblance only grows stronger as Watanuki settles into his own role as a magic practitioner. Which is odd, considering that neither his father nor his (what we shall for lack of a better term call) twin brother look anything like Clow. Apparently Watanuki was made to look like Clow Reed as said by Fei Wang Reed in one chapter. Why, we don't know. And as of Chapter 204, Watanuki receives Clow's glasses, or at least an identical-looking pair.

Watanuki becomes this after he takes on the role of owner of Yuuko's shop and ceases to age. Indeed, by the series end, about 100 years have passed and Watanuki is still physically a teenager.

He throws away his friends, family, and any life in the outside world for the sake of seeing her again. The fact that Doumeki is given a ring for purifying (read: eliminating) evil and is specifically told he shouldn't hesitate to use it on Watanuki, gives one the impression that this obsession of his could possibly take a very dark road.

This isn't even accounting for the fact that otherworldly beings like the Zashiki-Warashi, have a tendency to develop crushes on him.

Watanuki is most content to wait for Yuuko even while knowing it's almost certain she's never to return, at least not as he knew her. Whether he wants to avoid all the Reality-Breaking Paradox consequences of Clow's wish or prevent the creation of another Ass-Chin or minimize his own impact on the multiverse, or whether CLAMP just wrote another Gainax Ending, we can't really be too sure. Nothing is sensible by this point. If Yuuko could die and move on to "where Clow was", the guy actually has a much better chance of seeing her if he'd stayed mortal, died and passed on himself. In hindsight, it's possible that the only reason he didn't choose to let himself die even after all that time passed was to honor Yuuko's final wish that he continue to exist.

Watanuki is forced by Yuuko to wear Persocom-ear-shaped headphones. Moro and Maru can be seen reading "The City With No People" aloud at one point. In-story about the woman with the addiction to her laptop, Yuuko references Lupin III by writing "Zantetsuken" on her bat and saying Goemon Ishikawa's catch-phrase, "Once again, I have cut a worthless object". Possibly the young girl in the apartment above the internet-addict: she has short, wavy hair, lives alone in a wrecked apartment, wears beaten-up clothes, had a much older companion who killed himself, finds nothing unusual about the supernatural, cries "blood", and has been a teen for a very long time. She's a mermaid (or ate one), not a vampire. The girl whose soul is almost taken by a pair of angelic wings looks appropriately like another famous angel, Kaworu Nagisa.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_ca3a6dbd	comment	Informed Ability: Yuuko seems to be like this at first; we're told that she's an immensely powerful sorceress, but what little magic she does onscreen isn't very impressive. This is justified by her minimalist 'you-get-what-you-pay-for' approach to granting wishes; most of the time, the wishes she grants simply don't warrant spectacular magic. This is averted entirely in later volumes, when she breaks out the big guns, and it is also revealed that some very powerful magic has been hiding in plain sight from the very first chapter. This trope is stronger in the anime adaptation than in the manga, as the anime leaves out the magic Yuuko performs for the characters of Tsubasa. Admittedly, much of the real fireworks are still offscreen, but you see truly magical results more often in Tsubasa.

This often requires some action to get wish and price to line up, especially since Yuuko tries to avoid wishes and prices equivalent to a human life. That would involve taking on the spiritual burden of murder. There are hints that Yuuko has to operate in this fashion in every instance of her life, considering that on Watanuki's birthday she concedes that she can't give him anything other than wishing him well, as "the only thing that can be given freely are feelings". This has been confirmed, Recently, with Watanuki becoming the owner of the shop, several people commented on Watanuki being injured after customers. Eventually, it's more or less explained to be that this is due to Watanuki being unaccustomed to the job an not entirely sure of what to ask from customers, because if the shopkeeper asks for a payment that is either too low or too high, he or she is injured to compensate.

Pick any official illustration with the two of them in it, and you can bet anyone who hasn't read the manga will ASSUME something's up between them. And considering that Watanuki is staying at her shop because he knowingly imprisoned himself there in order to wait for her to come back to him after she disappeared, they might not be wrong! Although, as revealed in Tsubasa, he may have chosen that price because he couldn't come up with anything else quickly enough. He even acknowledged that he knew that the price wasn't quite right. It's true that he had already made his decision to wait for her, but the method might have been less self-sacrificial if Tsubasa had ended differently. Even so, it certainly doesn't change the fact that he's now developed a tendency to go into moments of melancholy reminiscence over her while whispering her name. Extra points go to the fact that Watanuki now not only resembles Clow Reed, with whom Yuuko was heavily implied to be in some sort of close relationship, but is also increasingly becoming like him. In chapter 199, Himawari and Watanuki say that they love each other over the phone. However Himawari can only visit Watanuki once a year, so who knows what that means for their relationship... Regardless of the mutual confession, Himawari does end up married to another man. Although her continued phone calls to Watanuki and her statement in an OVA (that was written by CLAMP member Nanase Ohkawa herself) that she made a promise with her husband that April 1st will always be reserved for her to visit Watanuki. Chapter 203's cliffhanger of Watanuki presenting Doumeki a ring was only to give him a purification tool, with the caution that Doumeki should not hesitate in using it to destroy anything malicious — even Watanuki. ESPECIALLY if it's Watanuki.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_de70f5a4	comment	Continuity Cameo: Several from CLAMP's modern-day series, including: Sakura's staff from Cardcaptor Sakura. (its story ties into the Myth Arc). The leads from Drug & Drop also make an appearance when Watanuki is sent to the Green Drugstore to buy Yuuko a hangover cure. They have wound up going to the wish shop in their own series, though now with Watanuki as the shopkeeper. Watanuki himself indicates that the two respective stores had done business together before. It seems further suggested that Drug & Drop is taking place simultaneously with (but independently of) ×××HOLiC, as, for instance, the urn used by Watanuki to visit the Zashiki-Warashi is the same urn stolen by Kazahaya and Rikuo. Yuuko explains that it was a "special order from the Anything Store". In a studio in-joke, Maru and Moro can be seen playing with Tachikomas in the second episode of Kei, as Production I.G. animated both shows. In another joke from the anime, the cinema theater visited by the characters features a film poster which is none other than a poster from the anime itself, the one in this very article. The manga tells one side of the story; the other half is told by Tsubasa, which is in the same continuity as CLAMP's other fantasy-setting series, unifying both major genres of their work into a single continuity. The protagonists are even technically the same person. Yuuko mentions in the first volume that she's known who are implied to be the Sumeragi twins from when they were very young. Whether they're the same people or alternate selves isn't clarified. Yuuko makes Watanuki wear a headset shaped like PersoCom ears in the third episode of the anime. She and Mokona also don them at one point.

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_e5421161	comment	Expy: Yuuko is not the first Mysterious Woman with magic powers created by CLAMP to use the phrase "there are no coincidences, only inevitabilities" and provide cryptic advice and guidance to major characters. That honor goes to Kaho Mizuki. Since Yuuko's death, Watanuki has been actively trying to be a Distaff Counterpart to her, adopting a mysterious demeanor similar to hers and occasionally speaking in cryptic phrases. He's apparently even developed a drug addiction just to get that "lazily smoking" look right. As time wears on he's starting to become a strange combination expy of not only Yuuko, but also Clow Reed, aka the other all-powerful magician who set the plot in motion, and/or Eriol Hiiragizawa, Clow's reincarnation. Watanuki already physically resembled the latter two, but now he's using their magic circle and his wardrobe's expanded to include clothes similar to the ones they wore. His greatest wish also mirror's Clow's, which is that Yuuko continue to exist. Of course, unlike Clow who literally made Yuuko unable to die, Watanuki's wish is that he one day meet her again. The most recent chapter reveals that Watanuki has been at the shop for more than a hundred years, though the readers aren't aware of this due to his and Doumeki's seemingly never aging. It turns out that the 'Doumeki' at this point is actually the great-grandson of Shizuka Doumeki who had been Watanuki's friend, and they look EXACTLY like each other. It is also implied that Watanuki didn't notice the Doumekis switching up between generations because of how much they look like each other. (Watanuki's thought that it might be a fact of their family implies the Doumeki line will just continue produce more expies.)

×××HOLiC (Manga) / int_e7b0229a	comment	Laser-Guided Amnesia: Watanuki turns out to be an unusual case. His magically induced amnesia made him forget things like good chunks of his childhood beyond their basic facts and even his parents' names. It's also not only partially anterograde (for example, he can't remember the taste of anything he eats, or even remember if he ate it), but it's also done in such a way that he didn't even notice he had it for quite some time. The discovery gave him a tomato-related nervous breakdown. Later, everyone except close friends and relations forget who Yuuko is when the stopped pocket of time she resides in starts moving again and the universe rewrites itself to be as if she'd died when she was intended to. Actually, one reason why Watanuki seems to develop such a severe obsession with her that he'd adopt her mannerisms and wear her clothes, is because he fears that if he doesn't keep her belongings near him, one day he'll start to forget her too. Which makes the fact that the apparent purpose of the egg Doumeki was given to hold onto is to erase Watanuki's memories of Yuuko a rather painful truth to learn.
