YES !!! Ohkawa is in the Staff for the XXXHOLiC Anime under the charge of “Series composition” (same as CCS and MKR). We can surely expect a VERY faithful anime adaptation, since everything will be approved by her ^_~ Not to mention that the chances of her writting scripts (and maybe songs too) are large. Here’s the whole staff:
XXXHOLiC – TV Series
Director: Tsutomu Mizushima
Series Composition: Michiko Yokote and Ageha Ohkawa
Character Design: Kise Kazuchika
Accessory Designs: Minoru Ueda
Director of Art: Kogura Hiroaki
Color Settings: Hirose Idumi
Director of Photography: Yasuhira Konishi
Music Director: Kazuhiro Wakabayashi
Editing: Taeko Hamautsu
Animation Production: Production I.G
We can also expect the anime to be very like the movie adaptation, since the staff is pretty much the same (Director, Chara Designer, Accessory Designer, Music Director, Editing among others).
I’m VERY glad already ! Just to know Ohkawa is in it makes me love this anime without even seeing it xD
We can relax now, our prays have been heard ! CLAMP-NET confirmed today that the company responsible for the animation of XXXHOLiC TV Series will be indeed Production IG !
This is way too much good ! Although, I do hope they get some new chara designer.
Happy Halloween everyone ! ^__^
I said on my previous post that XXXHOLiC anime would be aired on NHK Educational. It turns out that CLAMP-NET has just posted a note saying that it was a mistake to post such information. Apparently NHK is not planned to air it (good, isn’t it?).
They apologize for the mistake.

Looks like the BIG news were indeed about a TV anime !
The news is confirmed here: http://shop.kodansha.jp/bc/comics/eizou/
The only thing we know for now is that it’s going to start broadcast on April, 2006. Nothing about Animation Studio, Channel, number of episodes or whatever.

OMFGOMAJAGJAHTOWJALKMSAHGSHADJKDNKASUQIHKDN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess this is all everybody dreamed to happen when we first saw XXXHOLiC and Tsubasa. Both of them having their anime series !
^________________________^
This is sooooooooooooooo good news *———————*
This means: TWO CLAMP series being exhibited AT THE SAME TIME !!!
Actually, 3, since CCS’s 3rd season will be broadcasted on February ^___^ so this is THREE CLAMP series being exhibited.
My gooooooooosh ! I don’t know much about it, if it’s the first time this happens (probably not) but this is surely a rare thing to happen with a Mangaka ! CLAMP is so on the spot ! ^____^
I hope very much that they can do the crossover thing very “chronical”… like, XXXHOLiC’s episode get crossed with Tsubasa’s on the same week, like the magazine.
And I also hope Beetrain doesn’t get it… please let Production IG do it *prays* Although it may be hard to do the crossover thing with different studios -__-
Anyway——–! I’m so happy !!!!!! ^__________^
