New Tsubasa Preview

Now that we are a week for the big opening, the Tsubasa TV Anime official site has now a preview for the 1st episode ^__^

Check it out here

All very great but one thing, didn’t like Yuuko’s eyes, at least not on that scene.

Tsubasa News!

The first Tsubasa Chronicle Soundtrack is going to be released on June 22nd! No more information about it (well, is still pretty far), only that it’ll come with a special Sakura’s Feather Pen and a “Wide Case” (I guess, to either keep THIS CD or the ones that will come later).

And the second Tsubasa Chronicle Soundtrack will be released on August 24th! Nothing more about it for now. I’ll post here as soon as I get more information.

Thank you Sakura-chan for this tip ^_^

One thing I forgot to say in the last X post is that not only on March 24th completed 2 years without it but also it’s X’s birthday (thanks to the wonderful Time-line of FRaU magazine)!! Yeah! Back in 1992, on ASUKA’s May issue, it was been published the first chapter of X ever !
Happy 13th Birthday–! ^__^ (whoa, that’s a loong time).

PS:You may think is weird a “MAY” issue been out on March 24th, but yeah, it’s true… Asuka is that weird. It’s editions always come out two months before the edition’s name and on the 24th day. Like, for example, the last ASUKA issue, out on March 24th, is named “May Issue”. Go figure XD

EXCLUSIVE: Tsubasa Anime Preview!

Yes, Yes, YES !!! It finally came !!! >____< Here's an exclusive preview of the shows to be aired on spring on NHK, and among them is, of course, Tsubasa!

What you are waiting for?

Exclusive: Loop!

Today is the day that Loop, Tsubasa’s ED theme song, was first played at japanese radio. A japanese BBS managed to record it and here it is:

EDIT: Better quality, the song alone, MP3:

I really did like it! It’s the perfect sound for a ED song and Maaya’s voice is so poetic ^^

Random CLAMP News

– There will be an Angelic Layer event on CLAMP Su exposition on next March 26th! The event is a talk show with Atsuko Enomoto (Misaki’s seiyuu) and Masaya Onosaka (Icchan’s seiyuu) and also, an special screening will be aired (I wonder what?).

– More info about Tsubasa’s Character guide. From what I could understand on Sugawara’s column, Tsubasa’s Editor (today is his Birthday, BTW. OMEDETOU!), the guide will contain among other things, a Sugawara and CLAMP talk.

– There will be a special thing in that Special Magazine “Wonder”, called 「はじめの一歩Remix」 (Hajime no Ippo Remix), on sale on March 31st, which CLAMP will draw 2 pages (I don’t know if is 2 COLOR pages, and the rest of the story black and white, or ONLY 2 pages). CLAMP is one of the 9 authors who will be in this project. It seems that is kind of an homage or something. I’m looking forward to that!

– It seems that on Shonen Magazine 18 (the one with Tsubasa featuring the cover) will indeed contain more info about the anime. He, Sugawara, mentioned a big edition for 18 and 19 numbers, CLAMP-NET is stating until number 18. I wonder if number 19 will be also special? o.O

Tsubasa Cast and CLAMP having a hard time.

Found on this LJ

Touya: Miki Shinichirou (he played both Aladdin and Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts, go figure XD)
Yukito: Miyata Kouki
Fei Wong: Nakata Kazuhiro
星火 (Reed’s evil chick): Kobayashi Sanae
Yuuko: Oohara Sayaka – How ironic, she also played Yuko on Angelic Layer ^^ I think she’ll do good… she played Yamamura-sensei on Maria-Sama ga Miteru, she’s kinda Yuuko-ish.
Tomoyo: Sakamoto Maaya – deserves no introduction XD
Souma: Kaida Yuuko
Chii: Nazuka Kaori – She was Kate (girl with long black hair à la Arashi) in Sweet Valerian ^o^

Everybody is new! I don’t get why don’t keep the same seiyuu for Touya and Yukito o.O And Maaya Sakamoto as Tomoyo o.o

Now, on a more serious matter, CLAMP’s latest post on their ALBUM is about their health (they didn’t say which of them, exactly). They are kinda of bad since the temperature suddenly became really low. The ache one of them had in her hand is now worse and they also said something about their eyes hurting -____- They asked us for apologize. *hugs CLAMP*

The thing is, they say something about this been related to some vacation, I just don’t know if they mean THAT vacation they took a month ago or that there WILL be another vacation. So, I’ll put the link here in case someone is reading this and know japanese enough to do it (I used a translation tool but the results are not that accurate). I’d be glad to know what exactly they are passing and also about that vacation thing.

Lots of News!

TRC 70:

– Nice world… of course CLAMP would make a future-esque world… Edonis Country wasn’t explored much. It reminds me that city of FF8, it was also a floating city, wasn’t it?
– Nice clothes! So 70’s! Fye’s and Sakura’s clothes especially. And yes, flowright, I don’t know why CLAMP don’t start their own brand of fashion XD
– Dragon Fly? *Gilmore Girls Flashbacks* *Kojima Yushiyuki flashback Looks fun !
– Tomoyo! She and her bodyguards XD It would be cool if she wins the cup and gives the prize to Sakura… but Tomoyo is not the kind of girl who participates in these kind of cups, ne?

Half-Blood Prince Covers!

Thank you so much Anne-chan! ^__^

Go get Kobato Chapters 1 and 3 right now at eomaat !

First of all, thank you so much flowright nee-chan for having the time and effort to scan it for us (these are veeery exclusive, they are the only ones on the whole internet ^_~). I really love you that much ! *glompies*

Now, about the manga itself, even if I don’t know japanese enough to read it, I liked it!

I like it because the art is very fine and reminds me CCS’s and other CLAMP’s light shoujo ^__^ Kobato-chan is so cute ! That guy, Kyokazu, sure is very cool, and I’m already in love with Sayaka ! Not to mention, Chitose-san is there. I love her so much ^___^ We can perfectly see her ring now ! I just hope we get to see mysterious Icchan soon!

In other news, but also related to CLAMP:

CLAMP Su exposition has come to it’s final phase. The usual 199 pics were changed by 201 new pics, and other stuff as well. The thing that made me want to kill myself was the fact that among all the amazing stuff there will be exhibition of some CLAMP’s Original Manuscripts !

New tidbits about Tsubasa Anime ! A Tsubasa To reader e-mailed NHK a while ago to ask if the anime will have indeed 26 episodes. The user got the answer who said that the anime will have indeed only 26 episodes. The explanation was because after Tsubasa they want to air the Sakura Card arc. Sounds weird, doesn’t it? Will they air a 2nd phase after Sakura Card arc? Only time will answer that…
I’m just fearing of what they can mess up with those 26 episodes o.o

Thanks Sakura-chan for the tip ! ^_~

Random CLAMP news!

There will be another talk show, this time with CCS movie, on CLAMP四(Su) event. The talk show will take place on March 27th and it’s not a CLAMP talk show, I believe it’s a talk with the producers of the movie.

More info

XXXHOLiC vol. 6 won’t be released on next April, that’s why I believe it’ll be out on May as well as Tsubasa vol 10.

On the other hand, an Official Guide Book of Tsubasa TV Anime will be released on April 15th! The Name of the guide book, which suits very well, will be “公式ガイドブック ツバサCARACTere GuiDE”. Very fancy, huh?
