SynopsisA drugstore that deals in medicine ... and danger! Kazahaya Kudo has a gift. When he touches a person or an object, he sees visions. With no money and no place to stay, Kazahaya was out of luck until fate brought him to the Green Drug pharmacy. Now, in exchange for working in the store, he gets room and board. But in order to make ends meet there's a catch ... he must take on 'special' assignments from his boss that can only be handled by someone with Kazahaya's gift. With the help of his co-worker and roommate Rikuo, who has unusual powers of his own, Kazahaya finds himself on missions most surreal. (Source: Tokyopop) |

I loved this manga. It has to be one of my favorites although I can't really put my finger on why. I would recommend this this for xxxholic readers who are in love with the DomekixWatanuki relationship because this is one main features of the manga. Also it repeats a lot of the ideas that are in xxxholic. A vase, dreams, lamp post (you will know what I am on about if you have read both).
[Story]
Starts off simple and gets more complex as you go through and find out about each character individually. I think that it needs a few more girls in the plot. It lacks realism without a few females lurking about.
[Characters]
The best feature. Each character has been carefully crafted and they are all pretty interesting. All of them have an element of mystery, making you want to know more. The way that relationships development between each character is pretty good too.
[Enjoyment]
Top notch enjoyment but I feel as though it is missing something.
[Overall]
I would really recommend it if you are into boyxboy relationships. I want Clamp to continue this soon but I think my hopes are not likely to come true with the smashing appearance of xxxholic. read more

I was waiting for a friend to get done with something while standing in a Barnes & Noble and I saw Legal Drug and that it was by CLAMP so I picked it up and started reading it. In the long run my friend showed up and had to wait for me to finish before we left. I later found out she had the second one and I borrowed it. And now I have the third.
I find the characters believable and attractive (not a necessity but a perk). On top of that I find the story very interesting. It is one of those manga you wonder the who time what is the thing you are missing, what is the thing the boss knows that no one else does, what is going on? I really enjoyed this manga and I am sad that CLAMP has kind of put it on hiatus for the time being. read more

same author, hints to shounen ai, tragedies etc.
If you liked give legal drug a try
legal drug/gohou drug/lawful drug is another work by clamp. though it was put on hold only after three volumes (16 chapters), they've already given a lot of depth to the four main characters in this series.
it also crosses over with xxxholic, though not as much as tsubasa reservoir chronicle.
however, it is not recommended for those who do not like shounen ai, because even though legal drug is not "officially" a boy love series, it is obvious even from the covers themselves (which also show bondage and other suggestive themes), and from the drawings (you don't even have to squint to find them), that it exists.
The main characters in these manga both work for shops and are sent out by the shop owners to do various tasks, many of which are supernatural. Both of these manga series are also by Clamp.

a bit of shounen ai, same author
I find the two stories very similar. Both deal with a shop that is more than what it seems. and Two boys who "love to hate each other".
They have to go one weird assignments and they have powers. The characters have a lot of depht as well.
IT's too bad that Legal Drug is on hiatus though
