CLAMP: They have such a large fanbase and so many series that I had high hopes. I was hoping that shoujo writers would have deep characters and more involved storylines than the typical shonen fare. Neither was forthcoming. Someday I may find a series they've made that I like, but that day has not yet come.

Almost Every Series by Akira Toriyama: After finding the Dragonball Z manga a decent if stereotypical series, I figured he might have better work that didn't appeal to mainstream audiences. Sadly, every other work I have read of his struck me as having everything I disliked in DBZ and nothing of what I thought made it worthwhile.

What happened to purity and plain ol' love stories? The art, especially that of Nana, was also different from my tastes: wiry.Of course, I know you can't expect nonbelievers to act like believers, but that doesn't mean I have to subscribe to it.

Tsubasa: It was too perverted/occultic for this one. Also, there was always a lot going on, and minimal structure in panels that made it a pain to read.
