CLAMP NEWS !!

So many news!!

– Next scheduled chapters (red means new):

07/04 – Jump SQ #08 – Chapter 5.
08/04 – Jump SQ #09 – Chapter 6.
09/04 – Jump SQ #10 – Chapter 7 – Color page(s).

• Comic:

Here is the cover of Kobato. #6:

I love it! I think it’s my favorite cover! It screams HAPPINESS =D

It will be released on August 26.

• Feature:

To celebrate the series’ conclusion, there is going to be a large feature in the upcoming Newtype issue (out 08/10). Also, information about a new CLAMP series will be announced in the same issue! A campaign will be followed as well (but I don’t know if the campaign will be related to Kobato. or the new series).

So excited about this new series! Could be the revival of an old series as well (it’s alright to hope!). I don’t think it’ll be running in Newtype, though. They will most likely make the announcement to hook all Kobato. readers into this new series. I think it’ll run in a different Kadokawa magazine. Anyway, it was about time for CLAMP to work on another manga apart from GATE 7!

Looking very much forward to thissss!

• Book:

Here is the cover of the XXXHOLiC POST CARD BOOK:

I REALLY liked it! Even though there is little CLAMP illustration on it, I loved the design! I wonder if it was designed by CLAMP…

This postcard book will have illustrations from the covers and title pages of all 19 volumes of XXXHOLiC. It will be released on September 6.

• BLOOD-C DVD & Blu-ray:

The official BLOOD-C website has updated with the cover of the limited edition of the 1st DVD/Blu-ray. The jacket features a new illustration drawn by CLAMP!

It will be released on September 28.

The limited first editions of all 6 DVDs/Blu-rays will have jackets illustrated by CLAMP. Check out the release calendar for them at the CLAMP Widget at the top of my livejournal.

• BLOOD-C Manga:

Here is a drawing + message by CLAMP that came with the 1st volume of the manga adaptation of BLOOD-C:

So nice! CLAMP could draw the entire BLOOD-C anime and I wouldn’t mind =)

Thanks syaoranmew for letting me know about this!

• BLOOD-C in Newtype:

The magazine will have:

– Cover illustration drawn by CLAMP;

• Featuring CLAMP:

Kobato. gets page increase in Newtype

According to this blogger, the Kobato. manga is getting an increase in number of pages per chapter in Newtype magazine starting from the current issue.

This month’s Kobato. chapter had 24 pages instead of the usual 14. Future chapters will follow the new page count.

That’s great news! Apparently our prays have been heard! =D I’m very happy that Newtype allowed a few more pages for CLAMP (Kobato. needed it). Hopefully this will mean quicker tankoubon releases and provide a better development to the story.

Code Geass GAIDEN: Boukoku no Akito hotsite launched, Newtype article

A hotsite for the new Code Geass animation project Code Geass GAIDEN: Boukoku no Akito has been launched.

The hotside doesn’t have much new information, it possibly has the same contents published in this month’s Newtype magazine (see scan below).

Both hotsite and Newtype point out that the title Code Geass GAIDEN: Boukoku no Akito is a tentative title, which may or may not change.

Here is an article from this month’s Newtype magazine, provided by Aurelia:

The characters in the article are Renya (from the Code Geass manga adaptation Code Geass: Shikkoku no Renya) and Lelouch. Doesn’t necessarily mean that they will be in the new anime project.

The format or release date for Code Geass GAIDEN: Boukoku no Akito have not yet been revealed.

Nanase Ohkawa x Mitsuyuki Masuhara talk and more

A talk between Nanase Ohkawa and the director of the Kobato. TV anime, Mitsuyuki Masuhara, was published in the January issue of Newtype magazine. I don’t think anyone has shared scans of it yet, so here they are:


Click to enlarge it.
I must admit that I expected a little bit more of it, like, a bigger talk xD It’s a quite short text so if anyone could give it a look and tell us about any interesting information, we would appreciate it! =)

This is from the March issue of Newtype magazine, since it’s the 300th issue, it came with a special supplement. There is a ranking for the creators that drew more covers of Newtype, and CLAMP appears in the 3rd position, with a total of 9 covers:


Also, as part of the project that celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Newtype magazine, they will be releasing t-shirts in collaboration with many artists, including CLAMP. More info will come in the April issue of Newtype (on sale March 10).


Let’s hope it’s a new illustration!
