OK. Let's begin.

• Are you sure it's necessary to specify that "the plot begins with a monster of the week approach"? You may consider moving it to another section of the article, IMHO.
  • Removed
• Can you quickly explain what an onmyōji is?
  • Basically an old fashioned way to refer to exorcists who work for the government. Subaru is often onmyoji. Rephrased a bit.
• "and egging on their mutual friend Seishiro Sakurazuka, a kindly, 25-year-old veterinarian, when he declares his love for Subaru." So the girl is used to egging and it's a reinterred thing over time? Or is it something she only does once after the declaration of love? It's not very clear to me.
  • Reworded. Seishiro claims to be in love with Subaru often until the ending.
• "A shadowy childhood moment may provide the answer". Pretty informal. I would delete this.
  • Removed.

That's all for now. Good job.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 00:33, 20 November 2021 (UTC) @TeenAngels1234: Thanks for the review.Tintor2 (talk) 00:53, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

@Tintor2: Perfect. Now:

• "but Clamp wanted to give it a more modern tone". What does this mean? And is this related with the initial title? Try to explain it better, cause it's not clear to me.
  • They don't specify how it is more modern in that book
• "The pastry Roppongi Alrrond". What is this?
  • Removed.
• Add a link for Cardcaptor Sakura.
  • Added
• ".. with Zona Negativa stating that despite the series being a shōjo manga aimed at young women, Subaru's hero journey felt more like that of a manga aimed at young men, shōnen manga, due to the many types of enemies he faces while finding his foes' deep nature". I suggest to move this in Themes.
  • Done
• "The character's relationship with Seishiro led novelist Yoshiki Tanaka to call it tragic and striking, despite his early thoughts it was a typical use of a relationship to appeal to female readers". Ditto.
  • Done
• Regarding Subaru's darker characterization in the finale, ... as he saw Hokuto as another part of him". Idem.
  • Done
• "Subaru and Seishirō return in Clamp's apocalyptic manga X. ... Seishiro as a vampire hunter pursuing him." Why not creating a section in Media (e.g. "Other medias") with this?

That's all.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 13:37, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

• • Done. Thanks for the review.
