• Code Geass:

CLAMP will draw a new illustration of a “slim pin-up” version of Code Geass character Euphemia Li Britannia. The drawing to be published in the March issue of Newtype magazine, out in February 9.

They mean pin-up like the 50’s pin-ups girls? Oh, I’m curious about that XD

• Event:

As posted here previously, the exposition Shoujo Manga Power! has a new season and it’s back to Japan again, it’ll tour in several japanese museums from several different cities through the year of 2008. The event’s schedule is the following:

Kawasaki City Museum: Feb 16 ~ March 30.
Niitsu Art Forum: April 12 ~ May 25.
Kyoto International Manga Museum: July 19 ~ August 31.
Yokoyama Manga Memorial Museum: September 6 ~ November 9.

Kawasaki City Museum and Yokoyama Manga Memorial Museum also hosted the CLAMP Su exposition in 2005.

A total of 5 CLAMP illustrations will be featured at the exposition.

• CLAMP in CARDLAND:

The point card of CLAMP in CARDLAND 2nd Series, named as “Tokyo Tower”, will feature a new illustration drawn by CLAMP with Hikaru, Umi and Fuu.

So it’s not really an X picture like I had expected. But a new Rayearth picture after so many years sounds very yummy ^^

Before going, I would like to give my sincere congratulations for su_chan, who is celebrating another birthday today ^___^ My best regards, Su-chan!

  1. I wonder how long it will take to finish Kobato at the serialization pace it’s at. Oh well, steady as she goes.

    Incidentally, there’s now more art in the Shoujo manga exhibition, but I’m not sure if it’s more Clamp or more of other artists.

    • It will take a lot with this pace, that’s what I think. We are currently at one-tankoubon-per-year pace, and I see Kobato. as having AT LEAST 6 volumes (but it might be more). So 6 years at the very least…

      CLAMP either must move to another magazine (but that’s hard considering Newtype is one of the most read magazines of Japan), or Newtype should allow CLAMP to draw a bit more than 14 pages a chapter =\

      >Incidentally, there’s now more art in the Shoujo manga exhibition, but I’m not sure if it’s more Clamp or more of other artists.

      I forgot to post this, but there will be 5 total CLAMP illustrations at the expo. Thanks for reminding me ^^

      • I wouldn:t be surprised if it moved to another magazine. CLAMP is popular, but I can:t imagine Newtype really wants to stick with one series in its monthly issues for more than half a decade. Probably this was an interim sort of agreement to cross-promote CLAMP and get Kobato back in serialization–win-win for everybody–and if its successful all around, they:ll move on to another mag.

        I can:t wait to see that exhibition.

  2. Ok, I don’t say anything. Anything.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhh, I’m so happy that TRC does not have a *single* stop. Ahhh, if all mangas could be like it…
    *begins to curse CLAMP and Ohkawa*

    But why an illustration of Euphy? It’s one of the CG character I like less…but no one can arrive at the point of Suzaku. God, I can’t stand on him. And his seiryuu, after what he made.

    Thanks for news Chibiyuuto! ^_^

    • Hahahaha you can say it if you want xDDD

      Tsubasa’s current pace must be really blessed. But I’m fearing at least one break before the first chapter of tank 24, which is acceptable ^^

      I don’t watch CG, so I don’t know how annoying Euphemia is, but I’m curious about the illustration nevertheless ^^

      >And his seiryuu, after what he made.

      What did he do?

      Oh, you’r welcome for the news ^^

        Now I’m feeling better. ^-^

        >What did he do?
        He re-sold some script of animes that he have received from a production group (to ask him to do seiryuu for a character, I think) to other companies, so they’ll know what the concorrent will do BEFORE. After the famous character he is dubbing, the judge decided that he won’t dub new ones anymore.

        • Haha, what?

          Are you talking about the incident where he performed in a play that was plagiarized (of which he had no knowledge)?

          If not, do you have a source? I’m really curious to read about it and am very surprised nobody on the seiyuu comm has mentioned it! :\

          • >In a play that was plagiarized (of which he had no knowledge)?

            The story wasn’t exactly this. This was his version, but I know he was arrested, or something like this.

            Mhhh, the source. Well, it happened moths ago, maybe I red something on LJ. Or on http://www.animeclick.net , because I daily check it, but it’s all in Italian, sorry.

            • Maybe, to know exactly what happened, you’ve to check his personal site, or on wikipedia. Sorry, but I’m not so interest to make a search and, most important, I’m studing for exams. Good Luck to you!

      • Pin-ups

        Hm, how to explain this in proper and understandable english…
        Let’s try:
        It’s a poster.
        It comes in a overpricedjapanese Anime/Manga magazine.
        It’s folded in 2.
        You need to rip it out of the mag without tearing it apart (l33ts may use a cutter).
        Then you unfold it; pin it on your wall and drool on it.

        Still better than one chap/month ;___;

    • All I know is that is pretty disappointing to wait so much for XXXHOLiC chapters and then get one with almost no development and really random things (I mean, what’s up with Konahe? NOW? In THIS point of the story. Unless she’s more important than I thought).

    • I’m used to XXXHOLiC by now… it feels like it’s always a chapter then 2 weeks break, then a chapter, more 2 weeks break. And I honestly think that’s the pattern it’ll move until XXXHOLiC’s over.

  9. Sigh, fine I won’t freak over the lack of Holic, guess I can’t complain too much since I’ll have TRC and Kobato… speaking of which, is it just my computer, or does clampnoluminare only have up to drop 3 on their website? I’m curious since I think they’re the only ones doing scanlations of Kobato and I really want to keep up with it.

    • No it’s not your computer, clampnoluminare only has up to Drop. 3, because Drop. 4 was released on the last 10th and we are still waiting for Alison to scan the chapter and then we can release it ^^ Please wait a bit more *bows*

    Two months ao, I was predicting the last Tsubasa chapter to come out on April 1st, 2009, but now, it seems there are good chances that it will be over for the end of 2008! It still seems very far away from me: I am so impatient when there is unsolved mysteries! It’s a real torture !
