@Anke CLAMP stories are all pretty good but uhhh don't read Chobits, you won't like it >.>

Card Captor Sakura is good, and xxxHolic is amazing but you really have to read Tsubasa along with it to fully understand it.

@Anke oh yeah! All of Clamp's stuff is kind of subversive/deconstructive like that

@Anke I think my favorite thing about the Oz books is how Dorothy keeps winding up having accidents that drop her back into Oz in order to solve another problem there

@Anke technically, the Pevensies also wandered into Narnia on accident, there's just some elements of predestination involved

@Anke The Wizard of Oz predates The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by fifty years, so while Narnia is possibly the most continuingly popular and well-known historic example of the trope, I don't think it gets the credit this time xD

@Anke that's a great question, I have to go check some publication dates before I can give an opinion about that

@Anke I would say Pern and its telepathic dragon bonds but I don't think it counts as "kind of unique" anymore, what with effectively spawning an entire genre. >.>
