Ohkawa changes pen name from “Ageha” back to “Nanase”

Nanase Ohkawa (yes, that’s right) has posted some quite amusing news regarding her pen name in her Private Board at CLAMP-PLA.NET.

From March 1st onwards, CLAMP’s leader should be addressed as her prior pen name, Nanase Ohkawa.

Post about the name

Ageha Ohkawa has business meeting with Madhouse

Ageha Ohkawa wrote in her Private Board at CLAMP-PLA.NET that today she attended to a business meeting at Madhouse animation studio.

In her words:

Business Meeting

Just came back from Madhouse after a business meeting.

It’s been a while (actually a month) since I last met with Maruyama-san.

As always, Maruyama-san needs to be healed like a Pokemon, he’s working his face off (laughs) [not really sure about this sentence].

打ち合わせ

マッドハウスに行って参りました。
打ち合わせ。

久しぶり(っていっても一ヶ月くらい)に丸山さんに会ってご挨拶。

相変わらずポケモン並に可愛い丸山さんに癒されつつ、
お仕事をぎゅうぎゅうされつつ(笑)。

————————————–

Thank you Sakura-chan for helping me out with the translation!

By the way, the Maruyama-san she mentions is Masao Maruyama, founder and president of Madhouse studios, as well as producer of most CLAMP animes done by the studio.

I love how Ageha Ohkawa of CLAMP has business meetings with Masao Maruyama of Madhouse. And I love how one month is a significant time between their meetings xD

Anyhow, thought this would be interesting to share, no need to say I got very excited with it. CLAMP x Madhouse is love.

I would love to know the contents of that business meeting, were they planning future anime adaptations of CLAMP’s works? Or was it just a routine discussion about merchandise royalties? xD

CLAMP’s New Year

On this first post in the first day of 2008 (5 minutes before midnight in Brazil, still Jan 1st xD), I bring you the latest CLAMP posts straight from their Private Boards. They are mostly greeting messages and resolutions for 2008. There are some drawings, too, of course!

I couldn’t translate the posts because I’m the worst japanese translator out there, so if anyone would like to make a contribution, feel free to help ^^

It’s the first day of 2008 and Nekoi already started with the Gouhou Drug tease, grrr.

CLAMP NEWS !!

So wow! December, huh? This past week has been c-r-a-z-y. Probably one of my worst weeks to date xD I mean, it was the last week of the semester in university, finishing all projects has driven me insane, and to make things worse, I got terribly sick on Thursday onwards (I still am a little~).

That is why I’ve been away these days. Away from my LJ (although thankfully, there hasn’t been much going on), away from my e-mail (sorry for not replying to my e-mails! I will soon!!) and away from my flist.

But it’s alright now, university is over for 2007, thank god, which means I’m on vacation, yay! I shall have more free time now.

Let’s get down to business, then. This time the updates are on the 3rd because the 1st was a Saturday and CLAMP-NET.COM no longer updates on weekends.

December Edition

Ohkawa and Shouko-tan

As I had previously posted, magazine Quick Japan is planning a special talk between Ageha Ohkawa and Shouko Nakagawa. Shouko-tan has posted on her official blog some pictures from that meeting:

As you can see in the pictures, CLAMP drew an illustration of Kujo Jotaro of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, which is the theme of the talk, and gave it to Shouko-tan (I just don’t get why all the blank space xD). Kujo Jotaro is also the character that appears by the end of CLAMP IN WONDERLAND.

The edition of Quick Magazine carring the talk between Ohkawa and Shouko goes on sale on December 10th.

EDIT: According to , Shouko-tan is supposed to draw her version of the character on the blank space.

EDIT 2: And thanks to , there’s a little mistake in my post. The character that appears at the end of CLAMP IN WONDERLAND is not Jotarou from JoJo Bizarre Adventure, but “Kujo Jota”, from a CLAMP doujinshi. In CLAMP’s doujinshi, Jota is the offspring of Kujo Jotaro and Noriaki Kokyoin (both male characters).
