Shimarisu no Hoobukuro paper message, CLAMP draws Fujii Chiho’s “Happy Ko” (Updated)

For those who were curious about it, here is the paper message that comes as a bonus for those who purchase Satsuki Igarashi’s Shimarisu no Hoobukuro book in one of the 10 selected Animate stores:


On other news, CLAMP made a slight participation in NHK’s show TV Senshi, sort of.

TV Senshi is a show aimed at children and young teenagers. In today’s episode, one of the young hostesses, Fujii Chiho, asked her favorite mangaka (CLAMP) to draw her character “Happy Ko” from one of the show’s corners, Girls Communication.

CLAMP members themselves didn’t appear on the show, only the illustration they did of “Happy Ko”:

Here’s a picture of Fujii Chiho:


I thought CLAMP’s drawing was adorably similar xD Also quite a lot like Tomoyo.

Update: I thought that was the full illustration, but no! Here is the same illustration in a wider view:

Update 2: The show’s official website has the illustration in its full extent!

As you can notice, the final cover is slightly different than the one announced in Newtype, however, the advertisement did say that it was just a tentative cover.

Newtype June 2009 scans

You can check Kobato. Drop. 14 scans and Satsuki’s book advertisement in this album from this month’s Newtype magazine. Not my scans, taken from a Chinese forum.

Translations by starlady38 here.

For those interested, you can download the full Newtype magazine here.

New character in Kobato.! And he must be Fujimoto’s friend since he calls him by the first name.
And I knew the true forms or Ioryogi and Ginsei had human shapes, they look so cool! *-*

Satsuki Igarashi’s Chipmunk Cheeks ends serialization, book planned

The serialization of Satsuki Igarashi’s column Chipmunk Cheeks has ended in the current issue of Newtype magazine. The information comes from the column itself, which announces its final installment:

Satsuki’s monthly essays were being published in the magazine since March/2002 and no explanation has been given for the cancellation.

The good news is that a book compiling all essays is planned to be released soon.

I’m really going to miss it, I really liked all the random illustrations and it’s always a pleasure to be able to actually read the essays (that is, when translations were available). It was also a guarantee that there would be at least one CLAMP feature in every Newtype issue.

I always wondered whether these essays would become a book one day, but I didn’t think it would have to end serialization for that to happen (I expected volumes, LOL, I’m so optimistic!)

Looking forward to the book! =)

Several things

The official website of the Tsubasa and XXXHOLiC OADs has been slightly updated with comments from the cast members. Nothing too exciting (I wanted Staff comments…).

ladydarkmoon has lots of stuff in her LiveJournal: this month’s Kobato. extra chapter (which should be up tomorrow on CLAMP No Lumiere, given its ridiculous length), Satsuki’s Newtype column and the covers of Tsubasa #25.

Make sure to drop a thank for all her hard work!
