CLAMP NEWS !!

Although there’s not much this time…

• Event Report:

Animate has posted a report of the Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations preview sessions which can be seen via this link.

The report is short but it does contain a few interesting quotes, like Ohkawa stating that, during the early writing stages, the script for the OADs used to have a lot more original elements, but since it was an animation attached to the manga, she thought the script should be as faithful as possible to it (最初の段階ではもっとオリジナル要素が多かったんです。でもそんなことをしていたら東京編が入らない(笑)。今回はコミックに同封されるアニメーション作品ですし、やはりなるべく原作通りにしようと、原作のテイストをがんばって全部入れ込みました).

The report also mentions Ohkawa’s request to the director to make Mokona’s size the same as the manga, since it was bigger in the TV anime (監督にモコナを原作のサイズに戻してくださいとお願いしました。TVシリーズではたまに大きすぎたりしたんですよね(笑)).

One last quote, this time from the cast members, who expressed their wish to work in a continuation of the Tokyo arc (東京編の続編もやりたい!)

– Next scheduled chapters (red means new):

10/29 – Young Magazine #48 – No XXXHOLiC scheduled.
11/05 – Young Magazine #49 – No XXXHOLiC scheduled.
11/12 – Young Magazine #50 – Chapter 145 – Beginning of tankoubon 13 – 4 color pages.
11/19 – Young Magazine #51 – Chapter 146.

Seems like XXXHOLiC will no longer be postponed, phew!

• CLAMP in CARDLAND:

There has been a lot of sample images of the CLAMP in CARDLAND cards available at their official website. I’m not gonna post them all here because they are too many! XD But take a trip to the website if you want to check on them. CLAMP-NET.COM has a few ones too.

The 1st Series of CLAMP in CARDLAND goes on sale this month.

• CLAMP in 3-D LAND:

The official website of CLAMP in 3-D LAND has been updated for the upcoming 5th Series. The package hasn’t been announced yet, but at least we know this Series’ theme color is purple ^^

EDIT: Oh, and by the way, today it’s my 7th “CLAMP fan” anniversary! xD It’s been 7 years since Card Captor Sakura debuted on Brazilian Cartoon Network. So yay me!

I should have just turned the TV off back then… but oh well xD

    11 days to the next Holic chapter *endures*

    I hope we get to see a high resolution of the Kamui/Subaru card soon =P

    Erm, I think you mis-linked the “CLAMP-NET.COM has a few ones too.”

      I hope so too! But it’s so rare, and japanese people don’t scan anything so easily, so I wonder if we’ll get to see it in High Resolution.

  9. Yo, Chibi-Yuuto! Arigatou gozaimasu for the latest CLAMP news and updates. *deep bows* Now, let’s see what we have here…

    First of all, omedetou gozaimasu as you celebrate your 7th year of being a huge CLAMP fan. / You definitely should celebrate such a special occasion. That’s right, yay you!! XDDD

    I also happened to be CLAMP fan for 7 years when it happened the same thing as you, but watching the edited version of Cardcaptor Sakura (a.k.a. Cardcaptors *shudders at the name*) on Kids WB on June 23rd, 2000 in the United States. That was when they made episode 8 (Sakura’s Rival Appears (Sakura’s Rival – edited)) as episode 1. It was not all that great, but it got me the attention to become a CLAMP and a Yukito Tsukishiro (Julian Star in the edited version ;___;) fangirl.

    Anyway, enough with this as I say that I’m so happy that Tsubasa is going straight on for this month!! Sweet! ^o^ As for HOLiC… thank the maker that it will be back at least and this HOLiC-less torture will finally come to an end. It better be a good chapter after waiting for so darn long!! >.<

    Arigatou gozaimasu for the November CLAMP news and updates!! Suteki desu wa! *bliss*

      I’m happy about Tsubasa too, it’s going real fast! If they follow their schedule, we are going to have 1 full tankoubon with no breaks. That is so rare!

    And of course, Happy CLAMP Day then! ^^ I first read Chobits when it came out (’01 or so?)… But I didn’t truly get something just because it was CLAMP until maybe 4 years ago (Maybe it was the remnants of seeing Cardcaptors… *shudder*).

    Thankies for hte news~! ^^

    • I think she wanted to make something different than the manga, kind of aiming that the OAD would walk in it’s own, different, path.

      But then I think she realized that, since it would come WITH the original manga, it would be better to make it as faithful as possible to it ^^”

      So Chobits was your first CLAMP? I thought it was X judging by your Kakyou love ^__^

I am forever grateful. haha ^^

    • Well, we also rent X the movie in that autumn under a friend recommendations. We thought it was good so we started the manga with the 13 books available and saw it was even better! Then we learn that some characters were coming from other series like Clamp Gakuen Tanteidan and Tokyo Babylon, so we bought those books too. And then we learned that the girls from X also appeared in Miyuki-chan in Wonderland so we bought it as soon as it came out. And then Wish, Clover, Gakuen Tokkei Duklyon, 20 Mensou ni onegai!, Suki dakara suki, seven years of happiness being victims of Ohkawa evil schemes to get the money out of us ^_^

  17. Hi Chibi Yuuto!

    Thank you again for the good news and congrats for your site 😀

    I was wondering how do you get these news. I went on clamp’s official website and beside the release dates, it says the corresponding shonen magazine issue and “update” or “new”. But I can never find where the chapter number is written. How come “new” can come out 3 times for xxxHolic but there will only be one issue? I was wondering because last night the clamp’s website was updated and I was eager to find out, but I could not. But I’ll sure continue to read your website since it’s VERY useful and I appreciate your hard work 😀

    Many thanks 😀
