Here’s a preview from this month’s Newtype magazine, which carries a large feature about CLAMP’s 20th Anniversary.
Click to enlarge them.
Thanks Aurelia for letting me know ♥
Seems like TRC Sakura won as most popular female character ^^
More scans to follow!
The magazine goes officially on sale tomorrow.

Yay what pretty pictures! *__* Though to me, Sakura looks like she has really wide hips in that drawing for some reason…xD

I just hate this issue of NewType due to the non-news of Haruhi D:

How appropriate, isn’t it? XD
You know, I think this was the first time I actually saw Newtype, actually any japanese magazine in general, publishing “false” news O___o sounds like what a Brazilian magazine would do, but japanese? xD
LikeLike
Indeed. Actually it was not actually “false” news; it’s just that they’re announcing that Haruhi will be broadcast in April. But in the magazine they don’t say if it’s a rerun or the new season! (Even though Kadokawa said it’s a rerun). They’re being ambiguous and it’s driving me mad XD There are even images which are based in the volumes which weren’t covered by the first season!

Well I know it isn’t “false” news (hence the quotes), but it isn’t a proper announcement either.
I don’t understand anything about Haruhi but “tem caroço nesse angú” LOL

I wanted a spread but a single page is better than nothing xD I like how they are adapting real manga scenes and illustrations into anime ^^

Aw, they both look so cute! But why oh why is Kobato’s hair a different color in every single image?!?

You really think? I think it looks the same in the 3 anime pictures released so far O.o Maybe it’s slightly different because of scanning differences?

Thanks for the images! *__*
I agree with the commenter above that I’ll believe there’s a second season of Haruhi… when it airs XDD I’m also a little bit angry with Newtype because of this, actually ^^u But they give us pretty images, so we can’t complain that much, I guess 😛

Thanks for sharing… AND WOW… I am actually a bit surprised because I would think CCS-Sakura is more popular than TRC-Sakura. Though I suppose if we add in all the shown version of Sakura [little|Sakura, C|Sakura and R|Sakura] that exist in TRC… I suppose they can easily be more popular than CCS-Sakura 😛
heehee~ I suppose that’s also just because Adult-CCS|Sakura hasn’t made her appearance YET.
And Yuuko is 3rd place

I thought so too! I guess it really helps when it’s an ongoing manga =)
>Though I wonder this popularity contest, how did NT determine them?? Was there like a voting thing for the fans??
I wonder that too… I guess there was some kind of form in previous issues?

Both of them looks horrible… darn animators. ignore me, I’m just picky. (That’s why I read clamp) Kobato is the better of the two evils.

How TRC|Sakura ended up number one is beyond my understanding ^^;;
That said, I don’t particularly like her so that might just be my biased opinion…
Many of you complain but I think both pictures are fine, not masterpieces but fine nonetheless.
I can’t wait to see who gets first place as male character, since it seems like he will be getting a new illustration too! *crossing fingers for CCS|Syaoran!! We’ve got enough of new pics of TRC|Syaoran already…or will it end up being someone else then a ‘Syaoran’?*

Maybe the result has been manipulated so that we would get new pics from Tsubasa OADs? LOL
Let’s wait for the male ranking xD

Yes! New picture from Kobato. With promotion in Newtype, i believe they will release more new picture from Kobato. ^^
Feels like Kobato anime will be more popular than CCS. XDDD
Madhouse is really good!
I’m happy too that TRC Sakura won as most popular female character.^^
Its like more promotion for TRC.Poor TRC tv animation by IG. If madhouse doing this, TRC would be more awesome.>_<
Lets waiting for other scan and info from new Newtype edition tomorrow.^^
(and who is the most popular male character? Hope Kamui in there.XDDD)
Thank you for share nice and great picture my friend. Waiting for the others.^_________^
