The covers of volumes 16 and 17 of X for the CLAMP PREMIUM COLLECTION edition have been announced!

So, in the end, we did get Seishirou and Subaru, which was the most obvious choice. I thought CLAMP would surprise us and leave them for the final two but I guess sometimes they do choose the most obvious choice after all. Volume 16 is Seishirou’s volume, no question about that. There goes my hope to see Sakurazukamori Subaru, haha!

I really like the background with the pentagrams and how the covers are mirrored (not only the pentagrams but their pose, also). I don’t understand the kanjis written in Seishirou’s one (does anyone know?), and Subaru has the Big Dipper.

Seishirou’s one looks great! He looks great. Subaru looks a bit off to me, unfortunately.

So the only ones left now are Nataku and Kakyou. Will Nataku be the only one, along with Kamui in volume 1, that is in the same cover as the original edition? Kakyou makes more sense for 18.5.

We’re so close to the end of this fun ride… =/

Here’s the upcoming schedule for CLAMP PREMIUM COLLECTION of X:

October 4: vols 16 & 17
November 4: vols 18 & 18.5
