Here’s one last (?) round up of reports from the CLAMP@MOBiLE Fes! 2011 event I was able to gather from several sources.
– The XXXHOLiC OAD screening was cut after 30 minutes or so and the message “continues on the DVD out March 9” was shown.
– “XXXHOLiC Rou” is over, for the time being.
– Ohkawa asked the other CLAMP members how they felt regarding XXXHOLiC ending. Mokona said she’s “relieved” (as in, after running a huge marathon), Satsuki and Nekoi said they want to reread it because for the moment they are a little confused about it.
– OAD Director Tsutomu Mizushima wanted to come to the event but was unable to.
– CLAMP asked the audience who was the main character in XXXHOLiC: Yuuko or Watanuki. CLAMP thinks it’s Watanuki, Tsutomu Mizushima thinks it’s Yuuko.
– They don’t think Doumeki is “ikemen“, same as they don’t think Watanuki is “bishounen“.
– When the last chapter of “Rou” was finished, they celebrated drinking until morning even though they had to work on the following day.
– They mentioned the episode in France where CLAMP were asked about the lack of kissing scenes in their works. The kiss between Hana and Chikahito was a response to that.
– Hana’s gender was also discussed. The majority of the audience thinks she is a girl, but there were also those who thought her as genderless. CLAMP didn’t said anything, though.
– For GATE 7 color illustrations, first they draw and paint the characters using analog instruments. Then they scan the picture and background and other effects (flowers) are added using CG. You can check this more clearly on the picture of GATE 7’s gallery in CLAMP-NET.COM’s report below.
– CLAMP said that they want to do more events of this nature and art exhibitions in the future.

CLAMP-NET.COM posted their report up here with a few (very small) pics.
I think Doumeki is absolutely IKEMEN!
and Watanuki is somewhat like a bishounen I think..sometimes at some scene I think that he is pretty one…
and I’m gonna say I understand Satsuki and Nekoi’s comment about Holic’s ending…
XDD
thank you for these~
LikeLike
Hahahaha I find it amusing (and cute) that they don’t understand either XD (srly, only Ohkawa understands xD).
Maybe because CLAMP has done prettier male characters? I mean, Doumeki and Watanuki have rather simple drawings in comparison to Kamui and Fuuma, for example. Kamui is definitely bishounen.
LikeLike
Yes…we shouldn’t compare them with X characters..I mean..I think X is the best CLAMPs artwork so far..
No one beat Kamui in term of bishounen..okay maybe Ashura-ou..but Kamui is one hell of those pretty bishounen from CLAMP…
Almost too pretty…and Fuuma is a hot ikemen…
Noo I’m start digging my own pain again…
TT____TT I can’t stand Kamui/Subaru/Fuuma/Seishirou…hikss…

No news about Kobato.? I was expecting them to say something about it ending this year, I feel it’s approaching its climax (or maybe it’s me wanting them so bad to do something new or something OLD, if you know what I mean haha).

It would be sooo great to see more gohou drug, but I don’t think its been mentioned in Tsubasa ending.

Yo Chibiyuuto-san, long time without writing here! Since I got some free time, I was checking the status of other Gate 7 releases, here it is what I have found:
Germany
EMA (EGMONT Manga & Anime) official page
According to their release calendar, Gate 7 will be out on February 2012, you can check it here
Spain
NORMA Editorial official page
Gate 7 announcement is here
Release date on the event “Salón del Manga de Barcelona” which will be held on October 29 – November 1, so for the ones that can’t go to that convention, it will be available on November.
USA
Dark Horse official page
You already got the announcement one but recently (yesterday) DH updated their website with Gate 7 page, here
Interesting fact that de cover is not the one with the new illustration but Japanese version has 176 pages (according to Amazon) and DH one 200 pages, so I think all missing things will be added on those extra pages.
Also, first change for the release date, now on sale on October 12 instead of October 25 as previously announced. Moreover, Amazon listed it on November 8 (until yesterday) and now it’s back to October 25 LOL XD
And that’s all until today.

Overall, I’ll give it a 7. I think the real problem here is the pacing. As for the characters, obviously, you can’t have any attachment to them because they’re playing fake roles. But srsly, Fumito is really an asshole here and I hope he’s get a terrible and painful death on the movie.
I guess I’m one of the few who enjoyed this series. But this is not my favorite show for the Summer 2011 season. I guess some people were expecting it to be like Blood+ but it’s not.
Speaking of the movie, it will be also funded by the Japanese government: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-10-02/japan-government-helps-fund-budori-gusuko-blood-c-film
But I don’t know what are the opinions of the Japanese viewers about the series considering that most of the negative impressions that I’ve seen are from non-Japanese viewers.
