Fandom really is amazing… of course there’s the sad part with the rude people and crazy fans xD But the good part is so worthy it ! It’s amazing how you can find amazing, kind people. One of them I just met ^^ A CLAMP fan under the name of drawcomic e-mailed me saying that she had Kobato 5 !
Occasionally I get e-mails like that, I met a lot of great people because of that, mostly being still my friends. They offer not only files but good links and CLAMP stuff in general. Thank you all very muchly, I love it and please keep doing it ^___^
Anyway, the long awaited chapter 5, of 7, of Kobato is here and I couldn’t be happier to share it with you ^__^
Just remembering you all that this is not a *new* Kobato chapter, it’s still on that break on Japan. This chapter was released months ago, we just didn’t have it yet.
EDIT: Translations here.
Kobato is always wearing hat no matter what, so what better than a splash page with Kobato trying out different hats? XD
For those who don’t remember what’s happening, Sayaka has a huge debt with some evil guys and Kobato wants to help her out gathering money from the bazaar that will be held on the school of Chitose’s daughters.
I don’t know exactly what’s happening but I guess Kobato suggested the idea to Sayaka but at first she didn’t accept, then she changed her mind and decided to do it?
The kids from the kindergarten are so very cute ! ^o^ Specially Toshihiko (he’s the one from page 12, far left, with the funny hair xD) >.<
Fujimoto is clearly changing his feelings towards Kobato. I guess he's very hard to trust somebody because Sayaka is the kind of person who trusts anyone and she had suffered from that before.
Now, the guy from the last page, omg, what a cool guy !!! flowright-san once told me that this guy was a mix between Fye + Seishirou. And she’s definitely right !!
He’s probably the guy from the phone call from chapter 4, the debt collector. I like him already ! XD In spite of all he seems to be a good person.
Did anyone notice the mail address to Kobato’s editorial department? We could use this to send letters to ask for Kobato o.o”
Anyway, if would be really really great if someone could translate this chapter… because one of the reasons why drawcomic-san gave me the scans is because she hoped someone could translate it ^_^
Once more, thank you drawcomic-san *bows* ^__^

I loved the panel (very early on) with the flowers around Kobato. It reminds me of Cardcaptor Sakura when she’s having lovey-Yukito moments 🙂
She looks like she recognises the man on the last page. Possibly he’s some sort of romantic stir-up? Or a conflict of characters between him and Fujimoto? The possibilities are endless… Yet I can’t help but shake the feeling that he’s up to no good. Funny how you can build up an idea of a character from one page that you can’t even read 😀

Kobato is very like CCS in some aspects ^^ specially the flowers around ^^ it also reminded me of CCS ^__^
I think she recognizes the guy from what he said to her… because she talked to him on the phone on chapter 4, remember? It must be him, the guy who wants the money from Sayaka.

You are absolutely right ! XDDD

The parallels with CCS are quite strong. Starting with the main character; an innocent young energetic girl with her mysterious stuffed toy-like companion ^.^ Still, CCS is my favourite of all the CLAMP series, so the fact that they’ve captured that CCS feel (but with a slightly darker twist) means that I’ve instantly become addicted to Kobato ~ I just wish they’d publish it more regularly/more/again/at all…
I suspect you may be right & it is him from the phone call, but I hope it’s not… after all, Kobato’s whole past is a complete mystery, so he could be anybody from her past. Saying that, I’ve just gone back to look at that page & she does look worried, so I’m agreeing more and more with your theory 🙂

(Fujimoto reminds me of Syaoran when he first appeared… but taller & witha pony-tail 😉

Indeed he seems like a really nice guy… and he called Sayaka by her first name…
On that same chapter, 5th, she tells Kobato that she knows Fujimoto ever since he was 7 ^^ Him and “that person”…. I’m assuming here that “that person” is the mysterious guy. I think they were childhood friends.
Fujimoto has a lot of Syaoran indeed !!

Thank you, Chibi Yuuto-san so very much for sharing this! I’ve been looking forward to it ever since you mentioned to me you had it so that I would cheer up some. ^_^ Ah….it makes me so happy.
And here’s my little piece of irony for the day: I was at my bookstore earlier today and what do I find on the shelf? That’s right, Sunday GX. Only now that Kobato is on a break do I find that magazine. Not while it had chapters, oh no. When it’s on break! Curse the fates.
Thanks again! *hugs*

First of all, you’re welcome *hugs back* !! I know how much you love Kobato ^___^ Did you like the guy at the end? Cool, isn’t he?
2nd, so from now on your store is gonna sell Sunday GX? That’s great news, because Kobato HAS to come back someday ! It’s a pity we still don’t have chapter 6 and 7… but I know a couple of people who have it, the time just hasn’t come yet u.u

I do love Kobato! Great big bunches of love! ^-^ I loved the guy from the end too! You’re totally right that he looks like some oddball mix of Seishirou and Fay. It’s almost disconcerting. I hope he’s not evil or something, because I already like him. ^_^
So I think at my bookstore perhaps they only order a few of specific magazines that are prone to sell, so maybe they’ve had Sunday GX all along and it’s always sold out before I got there. But now that I know it’s there, I can’t wait for Kobato to come back! Because now I can buy it! XD
And bless those people with the chapters. I would wait forever for Kobato chapters. ;_; And hopefully I won’t have to. Right, CLAMP? ^^ It’s coming back, right?

Thank you so much yuuto-chan for this Kobato chapter 5!!!! And soifon for the translation!! My heart moved to Kobato. I love Fujimoto's kind mind. And the cool guy from the last page XD I'm so curious about him. I agree with yuuto and flowright, he is truly a mix between Fye + Seishirou who I love most ^^ Although when I heard he is "the debt collector", I hope he's not a bad guy plzzzzz And one more thing Sayaka-san said "that person and Fujimoto-kun" and he,the cool-guy, said he knew Fujimoto (he said Fujimoto was interesting). Maybe they are a couple ^^ But I love that, love CLAMP XD One more time thank you, Chibi-Yuuto and soifon!
