In this month’s Kobato. News!! section of Newtype magazine announced that a CLAMP x Code Geass artbook is in the works!
Published by Kadokawa, the artbook will be called MUTUALITY: CLAMP works in CODE GEASS and will feature basically every Code Geass art drawn by CLAMP, including CLAMP’s original character concept for the anime, Euphie’s pin-up poster published in Newtype, TV Anime Ending illustrations, and more.
The cover will also feature a new illustration drawn by CLAMP.
The artbook will be released on December 5.
Here’s a scan from the announcement:
That’s such great news! Loads of people were longing for a Code Geass artbook containing all the fabulous illustrations drawn by CLAMP, specially since most of them were released in very unappropriated formats. I confess that I didn’t think something like this would happen, a solo CLAMP x Code Geass artbook, but this is one of the situations where I like to be wrong xD
I didn’t expect this at all! O__O But they’re awesome news indeed ^___^ not for my credit card, though XD

As I wrote in the post as well, ME NEITHER! It was very unlikely to me. Maybe in a future “misc.” CLAMP artbook, but never in a solo Code Geass artbook.
I’m not complaining though xD
They deserved a solo artbook ^^

Awesome indeed! *___*

didn’t expect one so soon since most of the illustrations were limited edition extras for the dvds. ah well..more goodies for us.

I think most of it will be character sketches xD There must be around 30-something color illustrations, unless they’ll make a spread out of every ED illustration, that would be 32 pages already xD

maybe each ending illo will get a page. the 2 dvd character sketch booklets amount to ~12 pages if they keep the formats. i guess it’s hard to tell how big it will be without a price tag. 🙂 hoping for a hardback…their softback artbooks are flimsy.

Plus, they might add an interview or even the short comics xD

Yay!!! New artbook again! ^_^
But I actually wish they focus more on TRC, xxxHolic and Kobato instead of doing this… >.<
Meh~~~ Who am I to defy the Goddess work? :p

But as far as we know, they’ll only draw one new illustration for this artbook, so it won’t affect TRC or XXXHOLiC that much ^^

Wait, what is the price of this book (if anyone knows)?
Everyone’s saying they can’t afford so it’s making me worried. ;;;
Also, does anyone know a website where I could order this once it comes out (They have to deliver overseas, of course)?
