Yay, members! :glomp Welcome fellow CLAMP lovers!

@FireCandy - sure :D Let's make this FC awesome!

And for the sake of discussion... What is your favorite CLAMP manga, guys?
Mine would be TRC, because not only it was my first manga, I'm also in love with all the characters there. Plus we get to meet so many characters from other CLAMP mangas, which is awesome! And besides, I love Kurogane. ;)
Though I've heart that ALOT of people like X, mainly because of Kamui. I'm currently reading X~ So I'll find out if it's better than TRC or not. :D

01-01-2008, 10:06 PM
Hmm...favorite CLAMP manga?

I think TRC is my favorite too. The characters are awesome~I really don't know which character is my favorite. I love Mokona though :glomp

Btw i wonder who actually introduced me to TRC a few months back... *cough*gottaloveanime :hug*cough* thx :P

@FireCandy Congrats on becoming Co-Owner :D

I love Mokona though :glomp

Puu~~!! Mokona is so cute! :D

Here are some interesting facts about Mokona (I couldn't help myself...:rolleyes:) :
- The original character of Mokona is from the series Magic Knight Rayearth (MKR). The original couldn't speak, only say 'Puu~' XD
- The two Mokonas from TRC and Holic were created by Yuuko and Clow Reed, after they met MKR's Mokona. They decided to create the Mokonas beased on the Mokona they met, only with a few changes (such as the Mokonas could speak! :p) The name 'Mokona Modoki' is a general name that refers to both Mokonas, however they do have real actual names!
- The white Mokona is called Soel.
- The black Mokona is called Larg.
- CLAMP have published a childrens book called Soel to Larg: Mokona=Modoki no Bouken (Soel and Larg: The Adventures of Mokona=Modoki). That book tells the history of the two Mokonas, and it also have lots of cute new Mokona art by CLAMP! :D

I've read a translation of the book somewhere. It's soo cute! It's written for children and it tells the story from the Mokona's point of view. There was one scene where Mokona said that it seems like Yuuko feels lonely and she misses Clow Reed, to which I went 'awwwwww :love'.

Bloody Clamp is the best!! TRC!!(points at sig)
Not to mention they are the character designer of CodeGeass :yell

01-02-2008, 06:19 AM
Haha, welcome rei_ai!!! Yes CLAMP are the best! :D
Gotta say I love your sig. That OVA was awesome, much better than the TRC anime in my opinion. The OVA was closer to the manga than ever. So glad that horrible anime is over, since the fillers were getting out of control.

Btw, since you mentioned Code Geass, don't you think that Suzaku looks like Syaoran while Lelouch looks like Kamui (TRC version)? Ahaha. ;)
Lol actually when there were very early advertizements about Code Geass I thought "wow CLAMP you have created another Syaoran!" :rolleyes:

When I first saw CodeGeass, I already knew Clamp is the designer ~ big eyes, skinny legs and body, and very shoujo to the eyes >_<

Yes, I think, Suzaku=Syaoran, and I'm fangirling to both of them. Though Kamui doesn't have the evilness Lelouch possess, they both have purple eyes and black hair. Make them twins in Clamp world.

And yes, I love the Tokyo Revelations. I hope Clamp won't put TRC in the hiatus work, just like how they did to X/1999. I was clawing out my hair because of that (where's my Subaru??!! :yell)

01-02-2008, 06:40 AM
I wanna join! CLAMP works rule! :yell

Hrmm... favourite work... I'm gonna have to think that one out; it's so hard to choose. >_< CLAMP Gakuen Tanteidan (aka CLAMP Campus Detectives) was one of the first anime I ever watched besides Sailormoon. XD

CLAMP ROCKS!!! :yell:yell:yell

The hiatus on X/1999 isn't wholly their fault; they're just refusing to finish it because the publishers didn't like the ending and wanted them to change it but they refused to. I want to know if Sorata lives, damnit! And what happened to Arashi?! :mad:

gottaloveanime
01-02-2008, 07:24 AM
Welcome, Lone Wulffe! :hug The first anime I watched was Card Captor Sakura, which still remains one of my favorites to this day. I haven't read the manga yet but I intend to! :D (Though I heard the anime is better...)

The hiatus on X was the only thing preventing me from reading it, since I didn't want to read a manga which isn't completed... but I couldn't wait anymore! :yell So now I'm reading it, haha.
About Sorata and Arashi... (have no idea what you are talking about since I just finished vol 3), but you can see both of them living as happy married couple during the first arc of TRC!! (CLAMP can be such a tease sometimes! :rolleyes:)

@rei_ai - oh god, I hope they won't!! Though they have been publishing TRC chapters very slowly lately... same goes for Holic chapters! They are so lazy, hahaha. ;) TRC seems to be coming to an end, though. It's just a matter of one or two more volumes till the manga ends in my opinion.

The first Clamp work I ever watch is Magic Knight Rayearth. The trademark girls with big eyes, and unproportioned guy's body >__<

What I liked most is CCS, but it's beginning to be replaced by TRC >__<. Nevertheless, Sakura and Syaoran is my all-time favorite Clamp couple.

Speaking of 'couples', Clamp is a major yaoi-yuri-oldxyoung shippers. I was 0__o when I read RG veda and how gay Taishakuten is, despite his thirst for blood :nuts

Yes, I want more blood for TRC *dark eyes*

Hahah, yes, CLAMP are known to be unproportioned with guys especially, lol. At least during their ealier works when Mokona was drawing most of it. For example, when I was reading Tokyo Babylon at sometimes Subaru would have such HUGE shoulders and TINY waist I was wondering if he's still human, hahaha. :rotflmao

As for SxS, they're my fav CLAMP couple too! :yell Although since TRC has two Syaorans now it's very hard for me to decide which one I like best! So I fangirl for both Real!Syaoran and Clone!Syaoran and may the best win one, lol. :p

Btw, which one do you prefer? The CCS SxS or the TRC SxS?
I love the CCS one because at first Sakura and Syaoran fight with each other alot but as the anime progressed they started to care for each other just like ichiruki.
And I like TRC one as well since it's obvious Syaoran loves Sakura from the start, and Sakura too, only she forgot >__>' but she's starting to fall for him as well even though she doesn't remember their shared past. :love
Gah! I love both! Too hard to decide! :yell

Haha, more blood for TRC? :D I think there WILL be alot of blood coming since they have to defeat FWR don't they? I mean he can't just seat all day in his chair and drink his tea while everyone is getting hurt for his dream's sake! :yell He needs to spill some blood too~ :rolleyes:
Plus that R!S vs C!S fight didn't end yet.

CLAMP!!!

:wtf

Hello everyone!~

My name is kaya and I am literally new here, since this is my very first post...
I thought I should introduce myself properly and earn my right to membership by ......... being here?
Or bring my fan arts of CLAMP's works to here???

Ayaya, what should I said?
I am so embarrassed....

My most favourite CLAMP's work is Cardcaptor Sakura.


.......
Ayaya, I am so embarrassed.













............................
HAHAHAHA.
Ewww. I felt gross at myself being extremely extremely polite and nice.:yell
i wanna join! CLAMP is one of my most respected mangaka!
Plus my harems are here, I wanna to stalk them. HEHE

Anyway, Sakura and Syaoran is my also all-time favorite Clamp couple, and actually not just in CLAMP's works, but all of manga and anime. I never ship or love a pairing that much. (okay, I lied. I did ship two other pairings in my life like I eat too much peanut butter and drink coke and eat mentos on the same time.)

Oh yes, I love bloody CLAMP!
Yummy, although I still think their Bloodiness, compared to other people's works, will be mild. I'm too used in seeing CLAMP drawing girls WOOWOO here and HOOHOO there.

.

They're known for loving to torture their characters. Many of their characters have lost one of their eyes. Ahahaha.

LOL.
HAHAHAHA. So true!~
God, I don't want to be their character!

kaya!!! :glomp You like CLAMP too?! THAT'S AWESOME!!! :yell Welcome to the FC!!

Ahaha, SxS seems to be everyone's favorite! I think CLAMP like them too since they created two mangas in which they are the main hero and heroine.
Though I've read a CLAMP inerview once in which they have been asked why did they decide to create TRC, and they answered something like:
"We thought that Syaoran got his happy ending too easily in CCS, so we're gonna make him work hard this time to be happy in the end."

LOL! CLAMP, you're so mean to your characters! :yell Plus about this 'happy ending', I've heard from other fans that they said there is going to be happy ending for RG Veda too. But people told me almost everyone die in the end... which is :confused: to me. XD

LOL.
HAHAHAHA. So true!~
God, I don't want to be their character!
MY EYES,MY EYES!

HAHA~ :D And don't forget that Fai offered BOTH of his eyes to Yuuko!! Poor Fai!! (or should I call him Yuui now... x_x)
Anyway I've read an inretview in which they explained why most of their characters are missing one eye. They said something like "it shows that the characters have lost something dear to them and their heart is incomplete".

ALL LIES!! :yell We all know you just like to torture them, CLAMP! ;)

rei_ai
01-03-2008, 05:50 AM
Btw, which one do you prefer? The CCS SxS or the TRC SxS?


Haha, I'm more of a sucker for angsty couples than cheerful ones, so I prefer TRC SS. Syaoran is very polite, and Sakura very meek :uhuh. It's nice to have their personalities changed.

LOL! CLAMP, you're so mean to your characters! Plus about this 'happy ending', I've heard from other fans that they said there is going to be happy ending for RG Veda too. But people told me almost everyone die in the end... which is to me. XD


Urg...Yasha and Ashura are the only ones left = happy ending??
They killed Ryuu-oh, Kendappa-Ou and Kujaku, who were my favorite RG veda characters, how is that a happy ending?! :cry
Even that gay Taishakuten didn't really die in the war >__< He died a normal death and I went WTF?!

Yes, CLAMP loves torture. When I was reading X/1999, I thought I was reading a second RG Veda. Decapitation and all.

They said something like "it shows that the characters have lost something dear to them and their heart is incomplete".


Angst!Angst! My favorite word, and it associates with CLAMP.

Angsty Syaoran and Sakura are oh so good.

WHAAA~!! :eek: I guess CLAMP's definition of happy endings is different from the rest of the world. :rolleyes: Though I hope they won't kill anyone in TRC!!! A few chapters back I was sure Fai or Kuro-chan were about to die and I feared for them so much! Please don't let anyone die CLAMP!! *protects my TRC characters*
(Although they do love to kill characters. *siiiigh*)

Ahaha, about SxS, I guess it's true that TRC ones are so much more mature and yes - angsty - from the CCS ones, hahaha. :uhuh And when it comes to angst, CLAMP know how to do its the best way, lol. They can even make cute creatures like Kero-chan and Mokona become angsty!! :yell That's something!!

Although my favorite Syaoran angst would have to be after he saw Kurogane's past:
http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w29/gottaloveanime/omgsyaoran.png
Oh god, I was sobbing and crying after I saw this pannel. Syaoran--!!:cry Kuro-rin's past was so horrible and terrifying for him to watch, even though he didn't want to and tried to let go of that book many times. Not to mention that Kurorun is my fav character too. I was crying for both him and Syaoran.

Anyway, since I'm reading X right now, I want to share my fangirling with you, hahaha. Look what surprise awaited me:
http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w29/gottaloveanime/omgseicchan.png
it's... it's.... it's....!!!
SEI--CHAN!!!!!
:wtf

The wonderful assassin, blood-lover, murderer, animal-torturerer, Subaru's fearful beloved enemy, Syaoran's sensei, also a guy with only one eye --- Seishirou Sakurazukamori!!! My Sei-chan~ I missed to seeing his crazy face. XDDD
And also, it's Subaru-kun too! My cute little Subaru-kun which already turned into a man, and started smoking! :yell
I missed those two oh so very much!
Can't wait until they finally meet each other again! ;)


Hmmm, btw, I feel very uneasy about posting every other post here. I do know I'm not spamming since I stay on topic, and I want to keep this FC active, but I wish other members would post more. (Where is my lovely co-owner? I wonder...)

Aww, it's just your overwhelming love for CLAMP taking over you. :hug

Hrmm... CCS SakuSyao is sweeter, TRC is more angsty. The CLAMP ladies love their angst. Can't decide. :p As for CLAMP's pairing tendencies... yes, they push the envelope A LOT. I mean, a guy and a (extremely cute) robot? (Chobits is so <3.) Only CLAMP could make it work and have you going "Aww~" at it! :yell

I've been out of tune with TRC ever since my fave scanlating group's hit a speed bump. Anyone care to update me? I stopped after the fake Syaoran got revealed. >_>

:eek::eek:!!! Woa, you missed the whole arc about Fai's fast, didn't you? Not good, not good, hurry up and go read it! ;) Ashura-ou turns out to be a very bitchy bad person, and Fai... well "Fai" is not his name at all! XD Also, wait a minute, did you even know that Fai looses one of his eyes and becomes a vampire? :confused:
Plus Sakura in not the nice, kind Sakura anymore. She becomes cold with the group and doesn't tell them about her big plans, which is to leave them behind and go to another world.
Wooaa, you missed so much! You must continue reading! :p

Haha, nooo, nooo~ Please don't spoil me! I like to be surprised when I read mangas! :uhuh Also, YES! Sei-chan and Subaru-kuuun :inlove I love them so much. And it's sooo CANON!! :D Ahahaha. CLAMP have lots of crazy yaoi pairings which I like.
I loved volume 7 of Tokyo Babylon! It has all sorts of goodies - including Subaru-kun with his confession ("I think I'm in love with Seishiro-san!" Ahahaha! Sooo cute!) plus right after that, Sei-chan shattering all of his dreams and hopes and almost killing him. Sush a CLAMP-ish ending!
Also I'm still not over the fact that CLAMP made the cute Subaru-kun start smoking! :yell But I guess he can't help it since he had gone through so much in his life, lol.

You're not only lose your eyes. You'll lose some limbs, get stabbed, maimed and lose your head (KYAAA!!! KOTORI'S HEAD!!! WHERE DID IT GO?!! ~ oh, Kamui's holding it :eek:)

LOOOOOL!!!! :rofl
True, true.
Also you might as well fall in love with a person which is older/younger than you or even with have the same gender as you, and you might as well find out he has some sort of magical powers, or that he is connected with the "end of the world"...:rolleyes:
And cute little creatures will start to talk to you randomly.
And you'll meet alot of peole who have wings.

01-07-2008, 02:03 AM
Welcome socRa! :p Yep they get all genre, they should invent a new one for themselves. XDD Seriously, what genre is X anyways?! It's too bloody and gory to be a shoujo (in my opinion at least), yet it's too... I dunno, angsty and the boys characters are drawn too beautifully to be a shounen. :rolleyes: What genre is that? XDD Seriously they should make a new genre called 'CLAMP'~ ;)

Ahhh, anyway~ Look what I found (especially for rei_ai :hug)!
Bloody Syaoran and Kurogane character designs for the next episode of the TRC Tokyo Revelations OVA:

Thanks for sharing *kiss*

I'm reading TRC now and Syaoran fighting is so smexy to the eyes.

I'm glad that they put some blood in the OAV. The anime series is too conservative in showing characters' guts flowing (-_-).

As for X, yes, it has too much blood. CLAMP has no mercy when they 'shred' (butcher) Kotori's body (-_-), leaving her head to bury.

Kamui and Subaru = twins :yay
Their stalker is Seishirou (with buddy Fuuma). Seriously, those guys are sadistic and likes to torture little boys. Yup, very CLAMPy.

And yes, gottaloveanime, there should be a CLAMP genre. Shoujo-ish shounen with weird pairings :uhuh.

I noticed that too. Perhaps CLAMP-influenced? Although the anime of their works reduces some blood. (except X/1999 movie which most of the part has stabbing and decapitating. URG...) You can blame Bleach for showing me some blood too. I might as well be a vampire and join Kamui and Subaru :crazy

I just want to see color red :nuts

More TRC rambles :yell
Apparently, my addiction is getting worse. Gothic Sakura is very beautiful :inlove I want Rukia in those clothes too...fits her angsty image, lol

And so, R!Syao vs. C!Syao are fighting. I don't really know how to picture the ending of this whole series (-_-). but it will definitely have a happy ending CLAMP is a really a sucker for 'wishes'. They are the ones who control their character actions. Fei Wan Reed maybe a perfect villain, even if he's not as gross as Taishakuten..

On a lighter note: My CLAMP collection includes Chobits, which is somehow perverted in my opinion. I was quite surprised when i learned it was made by CLAMP. Not only did they change their 'artistic' style, they put adult theme and Chii is very hentai-ish for me *MOE MOE*

'nuff CLAMPy addiction for now *reads TRC...oh Syaoran u're so sexy and gorgeous*

Welcome socRa! :p Yep they get all genre, they should invent a new one for themselves. XDD Seriously, what genre is X anyways?! It's too bloody and gory to be a shoujo (in my opinion at least), yet it's too... I dunno, angsty and the boys characters are drawn too beautifully to be a shounen. :rolleyes: What genre is that? XDD Seriously they should make a new genre called 'CLAMP'~ ;)

Thanks for all the wellcome :hug

X is shoujo with angst story and a lot of blood...
Beautifull boys chara is called bishounen and it's very common in shoujo manga (especially in CLAMP's because you can see bishounen everywhere :D)

Yes, they should make CLAMP genre :cool:
They can make dark, serious and bloody story like X and RG Veda till cheerfull, funny, and simple story like Fushigi no Kuni no Miyuki chan and Gakuen Tokkei Duklyon.
I think the reason why CLAMP have so universal genre in their mangas is because of Ohkawa sensei brilliant brain (she admitted that she had the idea about X storyline when she was in the 3rd grade...) and CLAMP's experience as doujinshi-ka.

Seishirou sama!!! :yell
And i love the Seishirou x Subaru icon!!!
They is my favorite CLAMP shounen-ai piring after Touya X Yukito :D

Now that you mentioned it, even if Card Captor Sakura is a very light manga, I found the pairings disturbing (except for Syao-Saku, of course XD), that I was embarassed to let my little sis watch it. She'll say, 'what? Touya is gay??' >_< Even Kaho and Eriol pairing is kinda disturbing, but I guess, you can call it CLAMP's love XD

As for yaoi, Subaru and Seishirou is also my 'favorite', since they are so canon XD. Even in Tokyo Babylon, you can't help giggling whenever Seishirou flirts with innocent Subaru ~ and it's Hokuto approved, LOLz.

:eek: I missed so much?! Noooooooooooooo~!!!!!! I will go update myself now! :yell

BTW, the group I go to for my scans is Be With You Scans. They specialize in CLAMP works. I'm even a member of the team (QCer). :D They release top-notch quality scans, which is why I love them so much. :o

CLAMP loves their gore/yaoi/yuri/eyeball-losing/large-age-gap-love/etc. I say "CLAMP" should be a genre all on its own! :yell

Oh, and about X/1999...
The movie sucked @$$!!! :mad::mad::mad:

Everyone died so quickly! I mean, in the opening minutes Sei-kun and Subaru-chan DIED!!! And they weren't even introduced properly! Stupid producers! :yell

*me happy*

About X movie:

yes, it definitely sucked. No plot development, the characters are very OOC (SeixSubaru are no love...Kusanagi is very brute...no Kakyou T_T..etc..). It only looked like a massacre movie to me (-_-).

Atleast the anime TV series is better, although they killed kamui and karen (although i was kinda expecting this).

Lady Scraper: I am so TRC fangirling with you :inlove

Hi I want to join!!!!!!!!please?

And by the way my favourite CLAMP was Card Captor Sakura mainly because it was my first manga I was 12 when I saw the TV Show and everyone in the school LOVE IT! even guys watched the show!and LOVE IT too!! and that's something because we had at that time "Post Dragon Ball" mood and we were hoping for new shows...We were suppossed to have the American Version but fortunately,we got the original version with the originals OP and ED only dubbed and the voices were not bad!(we also got the movie) and of course we went all WTFOMGBBQ?! with the pairings especially Tomoyo's behaviour and Yukito/Touya O_O but then we like it even more!!!XD Sakura-chan/Syaoran was my first favourite pairing ever(and now they share their room in my heart with Ichigo/Rukia)...The manga was a little bit more disturbing because it has more Rika/Terada-Sensei O___O And I could see more differences with the anime.

...I need to join. NAO. *points to icon*

I love Clamps works, I loved X, I loved Tokyo Babylon, I loved CardCaptor Sakura (although I had to endure the butchered dub when I was twelve), and now my latest obsession is Tsubasa *points to icon again*

And Tsubaki, I love SxS as well :hug and Tomoyo's selfless love usually made me cry, Touya/Yukito usually made me squee like a banshee but SxS is my ultimate pairing--I love them so much in TRC. AND CCS OWNS SO HARD.

Anyway...joinage? XD

Welcome to the new members :) CLAMP addiction is definitely my disease since Magic Knight Rayearth :D

Although this is a CLAMP FC, I can't help thinking that this is a TRC-eccentric FC since I keep rambling about the series :D

Anyway, the second installment of Tokyo Revelations had been released and I can't wait for the sub :crazy. I read the summary at RC, and according to the reviewer, the animators are doing an excellent job in this ova, (atleast to compensate on how bad the anime series was made...I'm fangirling about those, tho). With those screencaps, I cans ay they made a high-quality anime, and I keep fangirling on how gorgeous Subaru is. Among his 'versions', I like the TRC Subaru best (next to Tokyo Babylon version :D)

As for the current manga chapter..ohmigosh..Sakura got stabbed and there's another revelation about her having a clone soul...now Clamp likes replicating their characters T_T. Maybe a bit better than killing their characters in the most brutal way...

//nuff fangirling..for now

My first taste of CLAMP madness was CLAMP Gakuen Tanteidan (aka CLAMP Campus Detectives). I used to go nuts over Suoh. :love He's like a blue-haired yellow-eyed version of Syaoran... with cute girlfriend to boot! :laugh

The next dose was CCS, although I had to endure a locally dubbed version of it. :(

oops I messed up with the Quote -__-

LOL Yeah Sakura is a replica! yeah I think is a little bit better than killing>_< (you know,is find this a little bit funny since some people complain that Kubo doesn't kill anything,but it seems that CLAMP likes to organize killing rampages...I can see the four of them laughing maniaticaly and drawing at the same time)
The OVAS ARE AWESOME!! I like the OP!!!! I actually never finished to watch the two seasons of the anime,but I saw the OVAS and the animation is like :eek: and the character designs are beautiful but Real Syaoran took off his eye very easily
As for the parings in TRC, besides Syao/Saku I like Fye/Saku Kuro/Fye(lol I love that punch that Fye gave to "Kuro-Sama") Kuro/Tomo(I Love these two!) Kuro/Tomo/Fye (at the same time!:yell) .........and KURO/MOKONA:yell

Tsubaki, each one of them's in charge of a different part of the process. The one to be blamed for managing the plot is Ohkawa, if I remember correctly.

...Although, they'd all have to approve it first, right?




Scratch that; they're all sadists, every one of them. But we seem to love them for it.

Thank you all for the welcomes :hug

I actually JUST watched the second OVA for TRC...Subaru is goregous as is Kamui! I love how they looked in TRC, I think the art became even more beautiful since the days of Magic Knight Rayearth.

As for the NEW TRC revelation...that chapter made me CRY. AND SAKURA is a CLONE. I think that goes next to eye eating in the list of repetitive plot twists XD I was actually surprised, although I'm kind of mad that the REAL Sakura didn't fall for C!Syaoran. I suppose everybody is happy this way.

Welcome to the world of angst and blood aka the CLAMP FC, Sora-chan :)

Tsubaki88: Harhar...TomoyoxKuroxFai ish canon :p When I first saw TRC, I already support the KuroxTomoyo pairing, well..maybe because I want Tomoyo to be paired up with a guy other than Eriol and Touya T_T. I also liked the way Fai punched Kurogane. I somehow felt Fai's manliness, LOL.
I also like the bloodsucking scenes :D

caffineluurve: TRC Subaru is the most lovable being isn't he? :wtf
Even still, R!Syao is in love with Sakura. When the clone soul said "I am not your Sakura", I went "hanyaaaaaan". The real Sakura belongs to the real Syaoran XD. CLAMP likes sweet words...yes, they do. Still, the clone Sakura really loves clone Syaoran...too perfect and CLAMPy. Definitely a plot twist and I can see the end of the C!Syaoran, and so TRC will have the REAL characters finally.

Now I am wondering whether the real Syaoran had known Sakura even before the TRC timeline since he knows too much. (and since he's a descendant of Clow Reed, maybe he knew about the powers of Sakura, thus when Fei Wan Reed knew that he will be a hindrance, he decided to imprison him after making him a clone.) Just a spec since I don't know how this series will proceed (except R!SxRS will conquer in the end :yell) and maybe more narrative will be done including the connection between Watanuki and the real Syaoran.

Ahhhh! Sorry sorry sorry for not being here such a long time! My life were very busy these past two weeks so I couldn't be much around fandom at all. But I came back! :) And I just want to thank you all for keeping this FC running! I'm so very touched! ;____;' THANK YOU! :hug

So, welcome to our new members, ,Tsubaki88, caffineluurve and Sora Chan! :glomp Sorry for not adding you before. But it's always great to see more CLAMP lovers! <3

Anyway, I wanna do a little 'update' post, since I planned on doing one every time CLAMP released something. :rolleyes: So here I go...

:nutsCLAMP NEWS!:nuts

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle: chps 178, 179 and 180 came out!
New developments:
- Sakura is revealed to be a clone too! :eek: (<-- exactly my face when I read that part)
- When Clone!Syaoran stubbed Sakura (accidentally, of course) she disappeared to a milion Sakura petals... but not before she finally told him she loves him. ;____; THAT WAS TOO SAD.
- Sakura told Real!Syaoran that his 'real Sakura' is waiting for him!
- Now, Real!Syaoran wants to start a new journey - He wants to go and search for both Sakuras! Because... You all know it already.... "I won't let Sakura die!!!!! :yell"
- Korugane and Fai will join Syaoran in his journey.

Some comments:
OMG!!!!! :eek: :eek: I... I... I LOVE Clone Sakura and Syaoran!!! :cry
That part when Sakura disappeared was so sad! And have you seen the look on the Clone's face?! WOA WOA WOA. You think he's going to do something? Revenge Sakura and fight FWR maybe?!
Omg. It would make me SO happy to see Clone Sakura and Syaoran together in the end of the seires! And since the Real one is going to search for both... maybe we'll have TWO happy SxS pairing in the end of the series! Who knows?! :rolleyes:

xxxHOLiC: chps 148 and 149 came out!
New developments:
Well, not much, just about Kohane again. Her mother is being terrible to her again, and of course Watanuki and Doumeki are coming to her rescue!! :D

Some comments:
I love Kohane. She's sooo cute, don't you think? I would have shipped Kohane/Watanuki a long time ago if I wasn't such a sucker for Watanuki/Doumeki. Yes, what can I do? I love CLAMP's shounen-ai pairings! :p

TRC: Tokyo Revelations: 2nd OVA came out!!!!!
:yay
That episode was amazing, don't you agree? The animation was absolutely beautiful, and it followed the manga completely! And they didn't censored anything! C!Syaoran's shirt was soooo beautifully tornd apart, and yes, everyone was bleeding! :love
My favorite scene, though, must be this:

OMG. Those scans are love, gottaloveanime! Especially the angst one...:love I swear, TRC will be the death of me. I squee and sob at the same damn time while reading it.

But I have to admit, I kind of lol'd at badass!Sakura--I think she's too cute to be badass. Although it's a pretty nice attempt.

Sakura 'dying' was so beautiful! I couldn't help but lol though because everybody was worrying about sakura's body rather than her soul dying. The same Sakura that has been travelling with them this entire time! :yell Although I don't think they know...or do they?

And rei_ai, I loved it when Sakura said that too~ It's very clamp of them to make everybody happy; although I'm so sad that the Sakura we knew this entire time is...well, DEAD. Ergo, death was beautiful. As for Syaoran knowing about Sakura beforhand, I always used to think that R!Syaoran was CCS!Syaoran, although I don't think that can be the case anymore. It explains somethings, but it clashes with a whack of others.

Tsubaki88
01-27-2008, 01:03 AM
OMG I know!XD Everybody was worried for Sakura's body and I was like,"hello people the soul,what about THE SOUL?!" Amaterasu & Tsukuyomi transformed themseves into wallpapers or something? I didn't saw them...or maybe I missed a page...I should read the chapter again...also...

LOL LOL LOL LOL At Badass Sakura! yeah I agree with caffineluurve b
I hope the Real Sakura could act a little bit diffenent than C.Sakura I mean Real Syaoran reminds me a little bit of CCS Syaoran so...well I think it would be nice.

And yeah, Tsubaki88; I hope R!Sakura is a little bit different, more alive I guess? Although recent chaps have said that C!Sakura was so cold to R!Syaoran because she learned she wasn't real.

The third installment is too far away and I can't wait T_T. At least with the latest development in TRC, we know that cloned-soul Sakura felt real love in C!Syaoran. I wonder what 'revenge' since he's the one who stabbed her T_T. Kill himself, maybe, LOLz. Enough of angst. Oh, there's more to come.

Yes, the TRC ovas are ones of the best. Best animation and fight choreography. And indeed, the best thing about ovas and movies is that they don't censor anything. If there's blood, then let there be blood :yell

I wonder what's next after the ova? A 3rd season, perhaps. I'll grow old with the waiting T_T

Well I just went from volume 15 to volume 23 in like 3 days. I am so freaking traumatized!!

What did Watanuki wish for so that he had to pay with is memories of his parents? Why the hell doesn't he remember? No wonder he is so confused in xxxHolic. Yukko is pretty freaking expensive!! Everyone like, has no powers anymore!! Tomoyo-Hime lost her dream vision powers (Which wouldn't that make her useless as a dream seer? ) "Fye" lost an eye and got vamped against his will and lost his remaining magic in a wish, Kurogane lost an arm and is Fye's bait, Clone Syaoran lost his heart and stole Fye's eye (not to mention, find out he's a clone), Real Syaoran got imprisoned and was released but like no one is that close to him and Sakura-Hime is a clone and dies!!! Where the heck is the real Sakura-Hime? From what Fei Wang Reed said she dosen't exist anymore? She disintegrated? Who the heck does Fei Wang Reed want to bring back? Does any Sakura-Hime exist anywhere? Gah this is driving me crazy. CLAMP really likes to make their characters suffer. I have no idea if this will be a satisfactory ending for me, because there is no way poor Kurogane will get his arm back for instance (or Watanuki get his parents memories back). Yuuko is not the type to do refunds. Poor Clone and Real Sakura-Hime!!!!

EDIT: Lost this in my post the first time but how could Yuuko allow Watanuki to pay for something with the memories of his parents? I thought Yuuko cared about him!! How could she accept him giving up something so precious? She had warned him the past about certain wishes (sort as warning him, it's something she would not want to do, like with Himawari-chan and her problem). Couldn't she just extend his servitude? For this reason I am starting to dislike Yuuko. Especially when she claims to be a softie. That and all the crud that happened to clone Sakura-Hime. I am so sad and depressed now. Here's hoping I can sleep tonight.:cry

Anyway, I so agree with you Lady Scaper, Yuuko is so damn expensive and she's slowly stripping the character's worth one wish at a time! :yell As for the Sakura-hime stuff, I was under the impression she's the one in the tube thing since chapter 1. I'm not sure though, but that's just my guess. Apparently, the doctor guy from early on has her body, and her soul is in the tube thing. It's all so confusing, and it's making my head hurt.
