The two-day event CLAMP@MOBiLE Fes! 2011 took place in Ikebukuro (Tokyo) this weekend, on the second day, the XXXHOLiC Rou Adayume OAD had its first screening and a CLAMP Talk Show was held. There are several reports spread around the internet from the people who managed to go.
Here is a summary of the highlights of both days (mild XXXHOLiC manga and OAD spoilers alert).
– Looks like a Yuuko Blythe doll was announced (not sure if it’ll be released in the future);
– Apart from original color art and manuscript, GATE 7 character settings were exposed;
– GATE 7 color illustrations are a mix of analog and digital drawing techniques. CG is used for final touches (as I thought);
– XXXHOLiC Rou Adayume OAD’s length is 20 minutes (Update: this source says 30 minutes or more).
– Looks like the OAD ends in a cliffhanger…
CLAMP Talk Show:
– The final chapter of XXXHOLiC manga readers will feel either “surprised” or “relieved”;
– XXXHOLiC artbook announcement;
– The editors of Jump SQ joined as guests to talk about GATE 7;
– CLAMP are not used to draw GATE 7 yet (because it’s a new work);
– The most difficult one seems to be Chikahito. Hana is the easiest;
– Code Geass talk. CLAMP’s original concepts for Boukoku no Akito were shown.

In the pictures above, you can see flowers sent by Sunrise (Code Geass animation studio) and Bandai Visual (the distributor of the majority of CLAMPs anime works).
Nice to have the XXXHOLiC artbook finally announcement!

Surprised/relieved? Huh.

Not seeing them as canon is like saying CCSakura’s parents never really loved each other.

I want a shocking ending =)

I think we’re almost certainly going to get that.
But what sort of shock ending?
Watanuki: Y..Yuuko…san? I-is that really you?!
Yuuko: I’m not really dead, it was just a prank!! LOL! Fooled you!!
Or maybe we’re going to learn that Watanuki’s died and is meeting Yuuko in the afterlife or something 0.0
On no, please don’t let the ending be ‘and he woke up, and it had all been a dream…’

And what means this line? Surprised OR relieved, or means it surprised AND relieved or means it no one of both? Because in my dictionary “either..or..” has different meanings. Q__Q

Maybe Watanuki is really in a dreamworld….but then the legal drug boys have to be in a dream too, and I don´t believe that.xD

The final chapter of XXXHOLiC manga readers will feel either “surprised” or “relieved.”
That’s weird — I feel neither surprised nor relieved by this announcement!
Here’s hoping someone posts the character settings for Gate 7 soon, since it would be interesting to see if CLAMP included the changes in Hana’s character design. It’s funny that Hana is easier for them to draw than Chikahito, since Mokona has always seemed to have a preference for drawing girls (or girl-like beings). XD

I think CLAMP means both of them, only from another position/standpoint according as what every reader´s especting. Means, some readers will be surprised, but some readers will be not surprised by the ending but relieved that their hopeful theories work out.
That´s why I think there will be a good ending. 🙂

Surprised or relieved huh well as I have said before he cant end up with yuuko as she is dead and long before Watanuki was even born I think that dream Watanuki is seeing is one she had along time ago the one Haruka san talks about any way all the goods look great thanks for the links.
