Xxx Holic: A Midsummer Night's Dream
xxxHolic: A Midsummer Night's Dream (劇場版 ×××HOLiC 真夏ノ夜ノ夢, Gekijōban Horikku: Manatsu no Yo no Yume?) is an hour-long traditional animation film by Production I.G based on the Young Magazine comic xxxHolic by Clamp, though it is an original story set within that of the comic rather than an adaptation of any part of it. It opened in Japan on 20 July 2005 as the A movie of a double bill with the Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle film Tsubasa Chronicle: The Princess of the Birdcage Kingdom, also by Production I.G (unlike the Tsubasa Chronicle television series) and originally based on a Clamp comic. The film is the first motion picture and the first voiced work based on the comic.

Famous quotes containing the words midsummer, night and/or dream:
“Spring is strong and virtuous,
Broad-sowing, cheerful, plenteous,
Quickening underneath the mould
Grains beyond the price of gold.
So deep and large her bounties are,
That one broad, long midsummer day
Shall to the planet overpay
The ravage of a year of war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“To introduce a new play only six weeks after another has been banned is also a way to speak one’s piece to the government. It proves that art and liberty can grow back in one night under the clumsy foot which crushes them.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“You see things; and you say “Why?” But I dream things that never were; and I say “Why not?””
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
