Here is the cover (drawn by CLAMP) of the book version of Kamigami no Utatane, the fantasy novel by Atsuko Asano serialized in Animedia magazine:
I think it’s beautiful! Just a reminder that the final two chapters of the book also have illustrations by CLAMP.
The book will be released on September 29.

It totally has the CLAMP touch to it. It is gorgeous.
Totally, totally =)
Woah. That’s beautiful.
lol girl fancy meeting you here
here’s my late comment~
this looks weird =_=….but CLAMP did a great job as always!
You think =O I actually like it!
i like it too but it looks weird……i like weird things! XD lol
wat’s the novel about? :3
I don’t know about the story =/ It’s a fantasy novel about gods, that’s all I know ^^”
ok thanks! it kinda reminds me of RG veda..XD
Wow, even with the slightly more realistic style it still screams CLAMP. They’re so talented…I love them!!!
The obi is covering the last bit of the image (there’s another circle with picture) I wanna see it XD
Gorgeous work. :wonders about the elf character: Yay purple eyes.
Let’s see… Kamigami no utatane. I know that kamigami is gods and no is possessive. But what does utatane mean? :is very curious now:
The obi says (I think): Asano Atsuko’s writings: The gods, on a whim, a little kindness.
“Utatane” apparently means “nap.” “Light sleep” sounds a lot better, though, even if it’s not the exact same meaning.
Oh, one more thing! Thank you for translating the obi, and thank you to Chibiyuuto for posting this! I love CLAMP’s illustrations for this series.
You’re welcome, it’s my pleasure =)
You’re welcome! I’m not sure if “utatane” means nap in this case, though, since I don’t see the kanji for “neru” up there. Not an expert, though!
I liked your icon (it reminded me of CLAMP because of the wings XD)
Thanks! It’s a chibi fanart of the angel Castiel from Supernatural. ^_^
You’ve just gotta love how obviously CLAMP that front image is. :3
Love it.
True, true!
Oh, how lovely!
(I still think that CLAMP should release an artbook of all their novel illustrations someday).
I think so too! They are so randomly spread. It would be great to have them all colected in one single book =/
It’s a beautiful cover indeed! I like the character design a lot too, but that’s not by CLAMP, is it?
I wonder if Gate 7 will have pics like this.
What do you mean not by CLAMP? I don’t know if they fully re-created the designs or if they just adapted previously-created designs to their own style o.o
I was just wondering that, whether they created the appearance of the characters or they were designed by someone else before. I assumed the designs weren’t CLAMP’s, but I don’t really know ;;
Yeah me neither xDDD We would have to take a look at the other illustrations (those that weren’t done by CLAMP) and make a comparison =)
It’s so beautiful…*O*
where do you find this picture?thanks!

Yeah, I guess it’s the circles =D
So Clampy yet so different, I loved the style… Sometimes I want that they make something with a different drawing lioke this one. Absolutely Gorgeous, loved this cover.
Now it’s the time! Gate 7 is starting and I hope with a brand new art style =)
WOW!! It’s GORGEOUS!!! I Love the blond girl!!!!
