In my last CLAMP NEWS !! post I mentioned that CLAMP would draw an illustration for the obi strip of the manga Sekai Ichi Hatsukoi ~Onodera Ritsu no Baai~ by Nakamura Shungiku (Junjou Romantica author).
The manga will be officially released on July 1st but some copies are already out:

In the obi it says “Takano-san likes Onodera-kun too much” and in the right corner “CLAMP-sensei’s recommendation“.
Thanks Sakura-chan for the translation!
What a nice illustration, it’s Nekoi’s version of the two main characters (but I can’t help to relate them to Kazahaya and Rikuou xD).

Really nice even if it’s just a simple drawing, gives me GD vibes xD

The left hand bit translates more to “too much”, because it is sukiSUGImasu.

Oh, thanks for that! I think the overall meaning is the same, but if that’s more appropriate, I’ll change it ^^

They do look like Kazahaya and Rikuou!
Man, Nekoi uses every oportunity she gets to draw those two, and God bless her for that *laughs*
And, dare I say, CLAMP’s art is 1000 times prettier than Nakamura Shungiku’s…

At first I THOUGHT they were Kazahaya and Rikuou, but then I looked more closely and saw they were the manga’s characters xD

Indeed! I love Nekoi for that, always taking GD from under its rock ^^

I hope there isn’t any Nakamura fan here, but I agree (of course XD), her art is very similar to the other yaoi mangas out there…

though for me, I’m also a big fan of hers, I can’t compare with CLAMP and Nakamura-san’s illustration. The thing is that I read yaoi because of its cheesiness and it’s story XDDDD
