I am currently in Tokyo for the CLAMP Exhibition so I could not post this earlier (although I did make a post about it on X), but the official Magic Knight Rayearth account on X announced today that a new anime project is in the works in celebration of its 30th anniversary!
The full PV and Key Visual will be shown at the CLAMP Exhibition, which opens tomorrow in Tokyo.
Given that the preview video was posted on TMS’s YouTube channel, it is safe to say that the new anime will be animated by the same studio that animated the original series.
Stay tuned for more info!
I am not sure at this point what to think about this. I am not exactly surprised as there were some rumors and speculation that this could happen (the official X account was one big hint, plus all the recent wave of goods). I just don’t want it to be worse than the original series. Hopefully this will introduce CLAMP to a new and younger audience.
This is the first CLAMP anime adaptation to get a remake, and that is quite something. Similarly, Rayearth was CLAMP’s first anime adaptation for the TV. I’ll be watching closely the next announcements as they come!

Oh my god? I wish we could see their faces and that Umi’s hair colour was more faithful to the manga art. Also “animation project” is pretty vague, this could as well be a music video. It would be cool to see the second part of the manga animated instead of the ending Ohkawa wrote for the anime.
